Hello! Do you have Modern au! No powers Lykon headcanons or any Lykon lives au headcanons? I am so desperate for Lykon content. I've read all the angst now I want the happy (although if you have any angsty headcanons I'd love to hear them)
Anon my gratitude to you for this ask has no bounds. I am ALWAYS down to talk about Lykon, love of my life, the soul of the original group, he deserved the world. Let’s have some FLUFF
LYKON LIVES HEADCANONS (a few of them)
•maybe the biggest difference: Quynh never gets imprisoned in the iron maiden, Lykon’s presence would have changed everything!! Even if Andy and Quynh were caught by the .. Inquisition (?I guess it was the Inquisition), Lykon would have saved them earlier than Nicky and Yusuf did in canon. So yeah, Lykon lives, Quynh is saved: it’s👏🏻what👏🏻they👏🏻deserve👏🏻
•It’s canon that Nicky and Yusuf meet the rest of the group when they’re already together, so Lykon is the eternal single in the group, poor man. But don’t worry. He leaves behind him a stray of broken hearts and he falls in love more than once.
•Lykon and Yusuf get along from the get go, while between Lykon and Nicolò (just like between Quynh and Nicolò) there’s an initial friction/distrust. Nicolò is not the easiest person to like at the beginning, for obvious reasons
•This goes for every universe, but I imagine Lykon to be a musical genius?? Think of Lykon composing music and fucking Mozart goes “What the... this is so good?? Can I copy from your homework a bit?” “Sure, this is nothing.”
•Lykon tells midnight stories to the group when it’s difficult to fall asleep
•Nicolò is the one who loves Lykon’s stories the most, he is the overexcited kid that goes “I KNOW WHERE WE LEFT THE STORY, THE PROTAGONIST WAS IN FRONT OF A BRIDGE AND PEOPLE WERE DYIN—“ “Hayati, calm down. But... Lykon, what happens on the bridge? We need to know.”
•Lykon is the one who usually decides where to go, Andy is more the one who gives direction during battles. They are both called ‘Boss’ by Joe, Nicky and Booker. Quynh is the wild card that has veto power because she has Andy and Lykon wrapped around her finger.
•Lykon and Yusuf partecipate in most of the cultural movements you can think of. Nicky&the rest of the group have to tag along
•Michelangelo? He had a massive crush on Lykon. Get in line, pal
•Lykon dreams of Booker like the others, but just like when Lykon had to find Andy and Quynh, he does a much better job at finding Booker than Andy-Joe-Nicky did in canon. Booker doesn’t spend years alone, Lykon won’t stand for it
•Lykon is very, very protective. What he doesn’t know is that everyone else is equally if not more protective of him
•once, Lykon falls in love with someone who doesn’t love him back. The group is devastated more than Lykon himself, there is someone suggesting they kidnap the person who dared to reject Lykon (yes, it’s Quynh)
•Lykon actually goes to Yusuf when he has ... love problems? Andy is not the best person for that kind of conversation.
•Lykon fell in love with “mortals”, he knows how to deal with the pain and the grief. When Booker’s family dies, Lykon is the only one who understands, they’re much closer after that
•Lykon is good at technology. Booker and him talk of computers while Nicolò still thinks telegrams were the epitome of human progress
•Lykon being a sort of cowboy fighting for justice inspired legends, comics and books. He just really likes horses, just like the og horse girl, Andromache the Scythian
•Lykon and Andy go together to find Nile and he is better at not traumatising her
MODERN AU! LYKON HEADCANONS
•again, Lykon is a musical genius! He plays the piano beautifully, but he can also play guitar, bass, drums... he has talent
•I can imagine him falling in love with a violinist he meets at work? Imagine him composing beautiful music for the love of his life smh, he’s no better than Yusuf and his poems/art for Nicky
•Lykon and Andy were/are roommates. They are the ultimate bff, no one messes with Lykon if they don’t want Andy waiting outside their house, in the middle of the night, looking scary
•Andy, Lykon and Quynh do some kind of martial art together
•but Quynh’s main sport is archery, we know that
•I can imagine everyone of the group trying to set Lykon up with someone... but they all do it at the same time without consulting the others. Lykon finds himself with five different dates in the same month
•each member of the group describes Lykon to their friend and they all talk like they’re in love with him: “He is talented, gorgeous, hot, sweet, protective, did I mention hot? He cooks, he is good with animals and kids, he plays the piano in a way that will make you cry tears of joy, you will love him...” “Are you sure you don’t want to date him?” “Me? No, I’m not single! Lykon is like a brother to me”
•The big fight that I talked about in my first post about Lykon happens also in any modern au so there’s a moment where Quynh and Lykon don’t talk to each other and it’s terrible for everyone
•during the months where the og trio is split up Lykon meets his violinist💞
•so all the dates that the gang sets up are useless ajsbfidh
• “Guys you’re very kind, I’m sure these... six people are amazing. But I’ve met someone.” “WHAT.” *general screaming* *Nicky goes to get a bottle of wine to celebrate* *Everyone gets drunk* *Nile takes photos and they are terrible*
•Lykon would be a great dad??? I am getting emotional. Think of Booker and Lykon becoming fathers at the same time, both of them are ridiculously cute with their kids.
•Quynh knits as a calming hobby and she makes little hats for the babies
•I think Joe and Nicky would adopt a few years later Lykon’s first kid, so there’s a gap of a few years when Joe is the unofficial babysitter. Nicky is good with kids too but Booker’s daughter cries every time she sees him until she’s three. (“She’s French, she recognises the enemy.”) (After that Nicky becomes a beloved uncle because he can’t say no, even if Nile is the favourite aunt.)
•Lykon would have a huge fluffy dog. Nile and him both have dogs so they walk them together
•Lykon is the one who always hosts the new year celebration. Everyone goes to his home every year and they all eat together, Nicky is in charge of the food together with Lykon, Joe bakes, Quynh in later years organises treasure hunts for the kids. Nile has to fight the kids because they always want her to sit with them because “you are the coolest, Aunt Nile.”. Andy is in charge of The New Year Speech, Booker instead tells his “Very Accurate Horoscopes” once he gets tipsy enough. Booker’s horoscopes are always hilarious. (“And for Pisces, I am afraid that those whose name start with N and end with O will be a general embarrassment to humanity from January to December.” “Thank you, Booker.”)
•Nile takes a picture every year and Lykon has all of them framed so there’s this “Hall Of Fame” where they see their family growing and being happy over the years💙
