Even in the 41st millennium Caliban seeps through his every step, of course the Lion keeps the tradition of presenting your love with your kills. It is a great honour to kill a monster and an almost greater honour to receive it as a gift. He isn't oblivious to the disgust that may arise from it but it doesn't make the, to him, rejection easier. Perhaps having the next one deconstructed into useful materials will ease their mind, because no matter what they will accept his gift.
Blood: How violent are they willing to get with others or their darling?
Ah, it depends really. The Lion is a force that will stop at nothing when protecting that which he holds dear. However, this usually means monsters. Very rarely will he find a baseline a threat to anything, (his sons may be another matter but also the average Dark Angel is too stupid to live) least of all his love. Lion is content to have them kept in the heart of a ship, a fortress, whatever, while he tears through the world outside. All they have to do is wait for him to return.
Cruelty: How cruel are they once their darling is enthralled?
Lion would like to believe his cruelty is past him, that his brash arrogance is no longer the first impression people get of him. Lion is a delusional fool. Despite his attempts to meet them on their level, he does unmistakably act like he is not on their level at all.
He treats them like a pet, a very well cared for pet that he would be destroyed if he ever lost, but a pet. Lion is not cruel in the immediate assumption of the word but he is uncaring because he thinks he knows best, and even if he didn't who were they to do anything more than politely suggest something.
Demanding: What do they expect from their darling?
Compliance mostly, he doesn't want much of them. Lion has always been of the opinion he must handled everything himself. In 40k this takes on a self sacrificial angle but the core of it stays the same. He just wants them to be there and to listen. They are the one 'thing' Lion has, they must realise that what they consider 'captivity' is the absolute best for everyone. They are safe forever and he finally has someone to confide in.
Exposed: How vulnerable are they with their darling?
Ahhh, extremely lol. It all comes out with them. They are truly the only one he has, even if they are far beneath him in many ways. Has a tendency to (unknowingly) hold this over their head. His terrible, horrible paranoia that materialises as stopping his lover from interacting with other people too much as he fears they could divulge his secrets, and he just wants them back. His love is unconditional but his trust is barely there, regardless of his attempts to be more trusting.
Fight: How would they feel if their darling fought back?
A part of him, the old and familiar part, is utterly enraged. How dare they try to contest his supreme authority him, their lover, who obviously knows best as one of the Primarchs. The other side of him that he's been attempting to cultivate since waking is simply miserable. Lion wants to fall on his sword for his repeated failures to everyone and now, especially, his own lover.
Game: Is this a game to them?
?no? lol. not even a little. anyway
Hell: What would be their darling’s worst experience with them?
Lion getting angry at his beloved is rare enough it could be counted on one hand but it has happened. When his beloved yearns for their lost freedoms too deeply despite an active danger he snaps.
The aura of a primarch is one of the most compelling a human can have, a mortal in his line of anger can do little to escape, even if they break themselves out of being a deer in the headlights.
The Lion, mature as he is, would do his best to never ever talk about it again. An apology in the immediate aftermath and an increased level of leniency and gifts for the next few months perhaps.
Ideals: What kind of future do they have in mind with their darling?
It's a dream, one that he knows not to waste precious time chasing but he would like one day to 'settle down' with them, whatever that means in the context of the 40st millennium. To have them quietly beside him, rid of any resentment towards their captivity. The Lion could never truly stop fighting but he imagines what it would be like to have something else at the forefront of his mind, even for a day.
Perhaps the captivity of his love is the closest he will ever get to such a dream, and he has not quite reckoned with that.
Jealousy: Do they get jealous? How bad is it?
Horribly jealous man he can be. In the past he may have confused jealousy with being slighted and acted accordingly. But now he has the emotional capacity to know when he is jealous but still have no clue what to do with those emotions.
Usually, his answer his is stricter constraints on his love and a quiet and immediate removal of the source of his ire. Jealousy is mostly applied to mortals, he knows intimately they have something he, even in all his glory, never can.
Kisses: How do they act with their darling?
He did not get any more normal acting sorry!!!!! Stiff as a board all the time. Much closer to a knightly gaurd than any type of lover. He's aware of this and makes little effort to, I don't know, initiate affection but still sometimes expects affection. Gets a little pissy if they don't catch his hints. (The hint was eye contact)
Love letters: How would they go about courting or approaching their darling?
Courting? He's never heard of that. Him 'acquiring' his lover was like trying to trap a cat in a towel. Lion isn't thrilled about abusing his Primarch authority, but it is the easiest way to get his love stashed away and his.
Mask: Are their true colors drastically different from the way they act around everyone else?
He's never masked in his life. Doesn't know how.
Naughty: How would they punish their darling?
Aside from the aforementioned increased restrictions (if they were allowed to leave their corner of the ship twice a week, it's getting knocked down to zero for the foreseeable future) he's not big on punishments. Consequences, sure, if they're trying to fuck around he will let them find out. (in a controlled environment where nothing seriously bad would happen, but the fear is still there)
Lion is aware that they don't understand his reasons and would prefer to avoid further misunderstandings, or agitating them to the point of lashing out further.
Oblivious: How conscious are they of their actions?
All things considered, very much so. He may find their "misunderstanding" of his intentions foolish and ignorant, but he can accept that his actions (coming from anyone but especially a primarch) are frightening to a mortal.
He would play dumb, however. In an effort to make everyone more comfortable with the very obvious kidnapping he'll act like nothing is wrong or weird and hope for the best!
Patience: How patient are they?
It depends on the context but as a general rule, he is moderately patient with them. He won't tolerate extensive fits but he does his best to be more patient than he would've in his former years. Less to do with them more to do with his #personalgrowth thats a bit misguided but his hearts in the right place.
Quit: If their darling dies or escapes, would they ever be able to move on?
Ah, no, lol. Mourning and grieving and regretting forever with this man. Wondering what he had done wrong, what could've saved him in their eyes. He racks his brain trying to pinpoint a moment where it all went wrong so he can make an easy fix, instead of combing through his behaviour as a whole.
Regret: Would they ever feel guilty about abducting their darling? Would they ever let their darling go?
In a moment of indecisiveness he may let them go but would quickly, quickly recapture them after he retalks himself into being weird. He doesn't want them to leave him on a base level but a part of him truly believes that without him, without the protection of him and his legion, there is no life out there for them to lead.
Surveillance: How much or little privacy does their darling have?
A lot, relatively a lot anyways. Aside from the baseline somebody or something (servo skulls, watchers in the dark) always knows where they are and what they're doing, he cares very little what they do in their day to day life. So long as ☝️they make plans with/time for him.
Tears: How do they feel about seeing their darling upset?
Unalled for: How erratic are they/their behaviour?
By traditional yandere standards? He's p normal. But make no mistake that Lion is kind of a wack job that just! does things! without telling anyone or explaining himself. And then gets annoyed when they don't agree with him???
Vice: What weakness can their darling exploit?
Can make him bark like a dog if they say the right things to trigger his extremely predictable emotional reactions.
Weirdo: Were there any signs?
He's such I fucking freak. I think yes. Like feeding a stray cat now it's Found Your Home.
X-ray: Are there any underlying feelings to it?
Perhaps, maybe they are just another way for him to feel like he's redeeming himself and connecting more to humanity but, honestly, I would say no lol.
Yearn: How long do they pine after their darling?
Forever in a way, he lacks the understanding to enter a 'proper' romantic relationship and instead stands at the outskirts of his beloveds world.
Zenith: Would they ever break their darling?
He woukd not like to think of it as breaking, that would suggest damaging the person he loves which is an intolerable prospect. Lion woukd however like them to more receptive to his protection and he woukd go to great lengths to receive that approval from them. Whatever and however long it takes, he will have them acquiesce.
the general consensus I've seen is that ferrus manus has a fucking huge penis, massive hog, absolutely swinging it like a helicopter. which gives me the very funny image of fulgrim being like "uh..... I love him for his personality :)"
Maybe a bit boring but how are the mournival at cuddling? Who's the worst vs best cuddler?
from best to worst
Tarik: adept at cuddling baselines AND astartes he's done it all. very receptive to the wants and needs of his cuddling partner(s).
Abbadon: u will be surprised at my high placement but for one he is the biggest guy ever, that's gotta count for something. but I truly believe the mournival is some elaborate polycule that abbadon believes himself to be the master of and that's why he cuddles so well. if we were specifying any non mournival he'd go at the bottom where he belongs
Horus Aximand: hes just niceys. not super remarkable tho
Loken: im putting him dead last not bcs of at failing, I think he'd be alright at it actually, it's just that in the most ideal situation you would be cuddling him
Do you think if things had gone on long enough and Horus didn't have his Moment TM, Sanguinius could have become the mascot of a romantic holiday a la Cupid? He's already got the wings, the love of air-strikes...
I do wonder how he'd handle getting shoved onto the "focal point of a holiday" pedestal that is not about his death. Especially one like this, lmao
I could very much see it happening! to my knowledge valentine's day as a romantic holiday comes from a misnomer of saint valentine sending "from your valentine" in a letter. that's such a funny mix up it's a fate that would inevitably befall the worlds most unfortunate angel.
I think his reaction would be the same as it is to everything, smiling uncomfortably but knowing he can't realllyyyy say anything. ☝️would get teased to death by horus, its disastrous that bald man won't leave him alone no matter how much sanguinius throws fruit at him and hits him with his wigs
Doesn't actually talk to them: Not even once! he must be forced by someone else to participate in such a terrifying humiliation ritual. Tends to just, uh, run away as fast as those baby deer primarch legs will take him. flirting, courting, direct conversations immediately off the table as soon as he notices he rocks with someone too hard
it's not a "crush": I think the primarchs would experience love in a completely different way, even just bcs of their insane lives, but that's not what i mean. negative emotional intelligence. he thinks he likes them and that in and of itself is bad enough for him to avoid them until they both die. mortarion has likely had a million crushes and not recognised a single one as love.
he gets over himself, now what?: mortarions expression of love is giving the most reliable and useful gifts, mostly plants and books(nerd), but in general. he pays a lot of attention to the world around him, takes note of people's wants and the things they say. what he does with this info is a toss up but if he swings he hits!
desperate to be loved: he is so so so weird and he needs them to be okay with that or he'll die. please don't reject his odd advances or gestures, don't ice him out in any way. he's a terrible hypocrite and very demanding but it stems from abandonment and abuse of unseen proportions from everyone in his life. you have to like him or he'll crumble.
will never confess: obviously not, lol! but he doesn't find this a particularly miserable fate, most days. perhaps it's his overwhelming fear of being abandoned but he is happy to have them just, there. they are there and they tolerate him and they are his friend. asking for anything more would be putting too much on the line. he has reached a point of satisfaction that, while incomplete, is utterly foreign to him.
How's sangy at building a snowman? Lets pretend winter on fenris or smth, will he decorate it as a blood angel?
let's consider for a moment leman russ pushing sanguinius over to make "a proper snow angel." ok moving on
I don't think he'd be bad at it or anything, he's a primarch if one from a sandy wasteland. would decorate it as a blangel, sniles so sneetly and says its his new first captain.
Hows the bird boi in the kitchen? Is his one (1) duty to stir the batter? Does he try to eat the dough? Is he only on cleaning duty? Is he in charge of decorating the cookies/cakes with icing?
he's a wretched kitchen companion on account of the massive unavoidable wings but let's ignore that, tied them up or something. being from a desert planet he would likely be adept at cooking (especially making resources stretch) but not baking. (because he has never seen sugar before) u could make him stir the batter but he might accidentally whisk it and suddenly your beautiful yule log is full of air.
as always he's mostly there to stand and look pretty and politely offer to help, to which u Must say no. at best he can measure ingredients
does he long to lick the bowl? probably not, but he won't reject the offer
Warnings: Mentions of violent sex, mentions of forceful sex acts
A = Aftercare, What are they like after sex?
Loken is as soft and sweet as he is during sex. Probably not actually tired but he acts how they would when they’re drowsy. Clingy, murmuring, etc, he’s all over them. On the actual aftercare side he’s quite the opposite, they’d have to hold him by a leash to stop him from running up to get something to make they more comfortable. Loken isn’t apologetic for rough sex but he’s aware of the implications of having it with an Astartes.
B = Bondage, How do they feel about being tied up or tying them up?
Loken is whiny about it but he’ll let them… he looks soo pretty tied up though. Trust. Has never asked to tie them up and probably never will, it might arouse him but he wouldn’t even know what to do in that situation.
C = Cum, How hard and how much do they cum? Do they have a cum fetish?
Loken feels nothing in particular towards cum and hopefully they share the sentiment because he cums so much and so easily. Apologises for it as well, he wants to finish with them but he keeps horribly mistiming it, he’s just so so so sorry.
D = Dirty secret, Something they wouldn’t even admit to them.
Violent fantasies, towards himself and very occasionally to others. It's not always with a sexual connotation and its unlikely Loken would ever be put in that position, but it crosses his mind enough. It bothers him mind you, he finds it unbecoming and weird.
E = Experience, How experienced are they?
At least a little, on account of being one of the cutest boys ever. But it’s an absolutely negligible amount, learning as he goes and maybe he can find some books along the way to help him.
F = Favourite position, self explanatory
Embracing them while cowgirl, maximising the skin to skin contact and how much he can hug them. Loken is a loser like that. Most of the “sex” does not happen in this position, he prefers cock-warming. It really is just a sexual cuddle to him that’s usually a precursor to clumsy mating press.
G = Got caught, How do they react to being caught in the act?
Please don’t do that to him… hurting the Loken very badly. Extremely flustered and concerned about what this will so to his reputation etc, but he is an good orator if nothing else. He’ll be fine lol. Much more precautious going forward however.
H = Hot spots, Parts of themselves or them that turn them on.
On him? His neck and mouth. He wants his partner to delicately run fingers over him, explore both with or without his permission but do it tenderly and Loken will stay put every time.
On them? Their eyes. Can’t help but watch them at every moment, they’re windows to the soul after all. (Not that those are real #atheist) Loken wants nothing more than to get a read on them, for reassurance and validation but on occasion, they can tell its for his ego.
J = Jack off, Do they masturbate and how often?
A lot. The jackerrr……. Due to being an Astartes/mortal couple, he often isn’t fully satisfied by the time they’re at their limit. Rather than push them, he understands they can’t keep up with him or their physical differences, he spends quite a bit of time pumping himself and feeling really ashamed cleaning up the mess.
K = Kink, What are their kinks?
Oral fixation: He likes having his lips touched and fingers forced into his mouth a veryy normal amount. Trust.
Pet play: In like the mildest sense ever, he wants to be good for his partner so bad and he'll crawl on his hands and knees should it be wanted by them.
L = Location, What are their favourite places to have sex?
His room. His barren, undecorated room that he barely spends any time in aside from with them. Blew his blond little mind when he remembered he had his own private space where (probably) no one would bother them. Loken did once fuck them in a library, he felt so terrible afterwards he can barely go back to that section.
M = Motivation, What turns them on?
Uhhh physical affection. Not like in general, they have to be pretty overt that they’re not caressing his face in a “my puppyy :3” way and in a “You are my Dog and you’ll act like it” kind of way.
N = No, What is something they would never do?
Unsurprisingly, actual violence. Can’t even do it to they in small, controlled ways like spanking or whatever. Loken is appalled just thinking about his partner getting hurt, particularly by his hand.
O = Oral, Do they prefer giving or receiving? etc
Ahhhhhh. You know what I’m going to say. Loves going down on people it’s his favourite hobby. Thoroughly enjoys cock warming/being an idle mouth. Would happily stay there until his jaw aches and the drool is dripping down his chin.
Has been known to enjoy a blow job though! Bite his thighs, he’ll be so normal about it.
P = Pace, What’s their pace during sex? Are they consistent, or do they get tired?
Not super consistent, not because of tiredness but sex is an emotional roller coaster for him sometimes. Slipping in and out of confidence in himself, and by the time he’s fully gotten into the role they’re just about at their limit.
Q = Quickie, Will they do quickies? If so, how often?
Yes, usually views it as a necessity considering he is so terribly busy but sometimes he gets a thrill out of ‘defiling’ his the rooms of his Primarchs vessel with them.
R = Role play, Do they like role playing? If so, what roles?
I’m trying not to be too okay ❤️ yay ❤️ about Loken but that is his vibe. Yes and he’s quite a versatile partner, all the charm and 'innocence’ to play submissive roles but the nature of him as an Astartes makes him slip right into dominant roles.
Loken does prefer to be some kind of princess or pet though sorryy. Don’t treat him rough treat him really niceys…………
S = Stamina, How long do they last?
Forever and ever with a mortal probably.
T = Toys, Do they own or use toys?
Get a dog collar on that boy NOW. Aside from that he does like being stuffed with Something.
U = Unfair, Do they like to tease?
Yes, actually. When he puts his mind to it he can be very mean and patronising. He gets little out of the actual act but seeing their surprise that beloved Loken is doing something other than rolling over going yes yes yes is entertaining for him.
Not a tease in any meaningful way though, they’ll get what they want from him eventually.
V = Volume, How loud they are?
Ahhhhh. too loud. gag him with his underwear do it now
W = Wild card, Random headcanon.
Premature ejaculator. It's not every time but it's not uncommon either. It embarrasses him terribly to be so openly needy for them, as if he doesn't act like that already.
X = X-ray, What’s their body like?
Average Astartes body in almost every way, regular build, height, penis etc. WITH the only exception being he’s the most freckled man to wall the planet. It’s like someone dusted him with cocoa powder.
Y = Yearning, How high is their sex drive?
Sex drive in the traditional sense, medium. He’s not obsessed with sex but he’s usually always down. But yearning? As in his need to be next to the person or people he loves? Off the charts, never been seen before it’s disastrous.
Z = Zzz , How quickly do they fall asleep?
Not much of a sleeper, he gets antsy cause he could be doing other things. And considering sex with mortals leaves him wanting he’s rarely exhausted enough to knock out immediately.
Who is your favourite chapter master out of all the first chapter legions ? And who is your favourite from any of the successor chapters
Ohhhhhb, chapter masters aren't really something I keep track of. two that I've heard of who certainly interest me are the chapter master of the blood swords, daggan, he kept his cognitive abilities despite being a dreadnought. haven't read the book he's in but I have heard in it he literally stands in-between people arguing so they can't see each other. preddy funny
second is the minotaur chapter masters, asterion moloc, who (I have heard) is said to be on par with/the only space marine a custodes would fear.
for successors that's esayyy. exorcists, mortifactors and carcharodons have my heart :3
You may fascinate a Rogal Dorn by giving it large bowls of soup. he really really really likes soup. the concept of a soup bread bowl rocked his world
more than willing to play along with stupid games for like at least 5 minutes, just to figure out what the deal is. on that note he would loveee board games. of all kinds
he canonically sleeps with his grandfathers cape as blanket and first of all that is sickening second of all I bet he's like a hoarder. there's 3 people tops that he cares about so it's not hard for him to amass a collection of their things. his nest. secretly all primarchs are birds
People aren’t entitled to know anything about you, but it makes no sense to complain about them blocking you if they can’t tell whether you’re underage? Most healthy adults don’t want to follow children, especially potential children who post NSFW headcanons.
This is the anon from August who asked whether you were a minor, by the way. And no, I haven’t told anyone that I think you’re a minor. Someone else is saying that, ig. Your headcanons were good, and I’m sorry you’re feeling bummed about it. My intentions weren’t and aren’t hostile. I just felt uncomfortable not knowing if you were an adult or not 🤷♀️
please block me. you people are fucking scary. my issue is not being blocked, I did not care when I thought it was just you, its the fact that someone or multiple people are going around saying things abt me that are not true and it's affecting my relationships? I don't know what's more concerning to me right now, the idea that it's been months and you have stayed active on my blog or that someone has told you this has come up again and you came in my inbox to call me crazy. do you understand what I'm talking about like actually? nobody who's done this to me seems to grasp how invasive this feels on a surface level and how paranoid and scared it is making me. "someone else is saying that ig" is INSANE to say, it is multiple people and I don't know who
I've kind lost most of my motivation for headcanons honestly. Between my growing ire for 40k yumeshipping and the fact I've encountered 2 separate instances of someone blocking me bcs an anon told them I was underage and they believed them, I just don't want to put the effort in anymore. It's all so boringgg I don't have many interactions I enjoy and now I know those interactions can just blow up immediately cause people think theyre entitled to have & share (assumed) personal info abt me
