Afterburns - ♡Summer headcanons about Levi♡
[Songs Levi would listen to on the way to the beach, while sunbathing, and on the way back <3]
♡ while he's driving and you're lost looking out the window, you feel his gaze on you. But when you turn he doesn't look away he holds your eyes for a second too long with
♡ the night before he packs a cooler with chilled towels, ice water, sunscreen and lotion. It's his silent way of saying "i'll take care of you"
♡ while driving, he doesn't just hold your hand, he rests his firmly on your thighs, and when one of his favorite tracks comes on the playlist, he'll start tapping his hand against your skin to the beat.
♡ if he sees you playing with the sand or getting messy, he'll lean in to clean you with his thumb, lingering on your mouth or neck. He won't say a word, but the way his breathing deepens betrays how hard is to him to stay calm in public
♡ if you fall asleep on his shoulder, he'll use his free hand to trace patterns over your skin
♡ under water he'll squeeze your thighs or waist so no one can see you.
♡ he'll position himself so his shadow covers you, he'll look down at you, silent, analyzing you with clinical precision. He doesn't touch you, he just stands over you, in silence, for minutes.
♡ before leaving, he'll use an entire bottle of fresh water just to rinse your feet and legs. He hates the sand's noise.
♡ he won't admit it but he'll always find a way to catch the scent of your skin, sweat mixed with salt and sun protection, burying his nose in the crook of your neck.
♡ he stands behind you as the waves break. Instead of supporting you, he uses his weight to shove you forward everytime the water hits, making you lose your balance. He catches you by the hips only at the last second, digging his finger into your flesh to remind you he's the only thing keeping you from falling.
♡ he'd set the umbrella away from screaming kids and noisy groups.
♡ you'd find him sitting composed in his beach chair (or towel) focused on his favorite summer book or watching the horizon with his sunglasses and a relaxed expression
♡ when you both enter the water and you swim toward him, he'd give you a faint smirk, waiting for you to get close just so he can wrap an arm around your waist to keep you steady
♡ in the water, he shoves you underwater and holds you there a second too long, only to pull you up and kiss you so violently you feel your life depends on his breath alone.
♡ while you two swim, he bites your breast so hard he leaves teeth marks above your bikini line, enjoying the contrast between the red mark and your salty skin.
♡ i imagine Levi would suffer from insomnia even in a modern AU, so if you two decide to stay overnight in a beach house, the sound of the waves will soothes him. you'd find him at 3\4 a.m, completely naked or just in boxers, staring at the horizon or stars.
NSFW MDIN!!
♡ he finds the mix of sex, chlorine and salt to be the most arousing scent. After you've been together in the hotel, he'll refuse to stay in bed with him to savor the mess you both made.
♡ he pins you against a smooth wet eock hidden by the tile. He hooks one of your legs over his shoulder and fucks you with a brutal rhythm, indifferent to the stinging salt. His free hand will grips your throat with just enough pressure to make your eyes fly open while he analyzes you to see how much you can take
♡ while you're tanning, he takes his ice-cold drink and instead of sipping it, lets a single drop of cold condensation drip onto your burning skin, right over your nipples through the wet fabric of your swimsuit. He uses his free hand to stop you from covering up.
♡ When the beach is empty and you’re the only ones there, he takes a piece of ice from his drink and shoves into your mouth, ordering you to keep it there until it melts. As you do, he uses his free hand to grip the base of your neck, feeling the contrast between the cold in your mouth and the rising heat between your legs while staring at him with predatory desire.
♡ he can't wait to get home. He will pull over on a secluded road and orders you to climb over the seat and straddle him. He fucks you with the seats still hot from the sun, while his free hand presses on your face against ythe window, forcing you to look outside while he takes you.
♡ Once in bed, he analyzes your naked body under the moonlight. he fucks you with agonizing slowness, stopping everytime you're close to the edge just to watch you beg, until he comes inside you with such force that it leaves you feeling hollowed out.
♡ he uses your bikini string to tie your wrists behind your back while you're lying on the towel in a secluded area. He loves to see you so desperate and vulnerable, touching you with his fingertips in the places that drives you crazy, forbidding you from touching him until he decides.
♡ While you're lying down, he orders you to keep your legs spread under the sun. He'll observe you from a distance, with his sunglasses while sipping his cold drink, forcing you to stay exposed for him until you physically ache for his touch.

an: saw a few other creators doin this and it looked soo cute n fun <3
.✦ aftercare (how they take care of their partner after sex)
i feel like it doesn’t need to be repeated, but levi is a neat freak- he feels relaxed and refreshed when he’s clean, and he wants his partner to feel the same. levi will gently clean his partner up, run you both a hot shower to share- but get out before you so he can brew some tea and whip up a small snack so you can both recoup.
he may not be cuddly, but this doesn’t make him any less attentive. taking care of you is the only way he feels he can repay his partner.
.✦ body part (their favorite of their own and their partner)
levi is well aware he’s not the tallest or biggest guy around- but his body? he takes great pride in it. he’s a soldier after all, he earned this body after years of hard work. he’s confident in his arms- toned, veiny, sleek but strong. he’s doubted many things, but never his own strength. and he knows his partner loves it too, he catches you staring at him every time he rolls his sleeves up.
because of this, he’s a thigh man. he loves to squeeze his partners plump flesh while his arm flexes from his grip. he loves when you walk around in bottoms that amplify their movement, and he loves when they jiggle while he bends and molds his partner per position. when he’s feeling particularly soft, he’ll place little kisses all over them.
.✦ cum (where’s it going?)
levi is a bit unpredictable when it comes to this ..of course when he’s penetrated deep into you, eyes locked on each other- he can’t bring himself to pull away. he loooves filling you up. but i can also see him having a hard time saying no to his partner, if they beg him to cum in their mouth, or on their tummy- he doesn’t want to ruin your fun and object. even if it feels like a waste .. or a mess.
.✦ dirty secret (obviously…)
this man is a PERV!! levi can be very bashful when it comes to his wants, likes, interests. he’s also very shameful and self deprecating- so he can be a bit of a peeping tom… he loves when you leave the bedroom door open a tad while getting changed, slowly peeking through the slit to watch you undress. he likes when you bend over to clean or pick something up, just to see your curves pressed against your bottoms. he’s obsessed with watching, and could almost get off on how invasive he feels. it’s a delicious self torture- watching you, being unable to touch you.
.✦ experience (how experienced are they?
levi was definitely lacking in experience for quite some time- it’s not that he couldn’t get it, it had just never peaked his interest. but i think over time he gains experience that is specifically tuned to his partner. he notices what thrust pace has your legs quivering, what gets you dripping. sure, there was some trial and error- but he’s determined to always make you feel good. and experience requires hands on practice. ;)
.✦ favorite position
sex is such a fragile and intimate situation for levi- being so exposed, vulnerable, seen. he won’t ever do it just because, he seeks connection. he LOVES missionary. watching your soft skin bounce with each motion he makes, seeing his partners face all drooley and fucked out, locking eyes every time he pushes deeper. he’s not against other positions- but he adores ones where he can see alllll of you. he likes adventuring with doggy style- only if he can have you bent over a surface.
.✦ goofy (are they silly or serious during intimacy?)
levi’s sexual urges come purely from his desire for you, his one and only, his partner. he loves making you feel good and he loves feeling both needed and wanted in that way. it’s not a game to him, especially if his partner asks him to be strict or mean. he takes his role very seriously- if you giggle, he won’t mind, but he’s strictly business when it comes to getting DOWWWNN to business.
.✦ hair (how well groomed are they?)
must i repeat myself..? levi is very clean, well kept, and keeps every inch of his body beautifully groomed, sometimes he has a bit of stubble- if it’s not bald, it’s well trimmed.
on his partners, levi doesn’t necessarily mind. he loves when you’ve exfoliated and moisturized, all baby soft n clean. he would hate anything to get in the way, but it doesn’t make him yearn any less.
.✦ intimacy (what to expect romantically)
levi is nothing but grateful to touch or be touched by his partner. he loves looking into your eyes while pushing deep into you. he’s not typically verbally affectionate until these moments, as it’s so vulnerable and interconnecting.
he’ll praise you, of course. complimenting every inch and feeling of your body, and professing his love for you at every thrust.
.✦ jerking off (how often?)
levi is not one to give into his person urges; sexual or emotional. but you drive him CRAZY. although he’s not jerking off offen (usually he will come in find you if he’s in need) he has to find a way to satiate his hunger somehow. really, what’ll get him is the smell of your shampoo on his pillows. it makes his heart and groin ache in synchronicity, and he’ll find himself slipping his hand under his bed sheet, whimpering your name while huffing the pillow you sleep on.
.✦ kinks (speaks for its self)
this man looooooves to degrade you AND restrain you. watching his pretty baby wriggle around in his diy belt handcuffs, telling you how pathetic you are while trembling at his touch, begging for more.
he loves to dominate, take control, and be in charge. he’ll let you have your fun once in a while, but he will never let you forget your place; under him. “p-pleaaaseuh levi, i wanna cum!”
“tch. it’s rude to act like such a needy brat..look at you, drooling at my cock, pathetic.”
.✦ location (their favorite place to do it)
levi is simple, he loves to take you home after a romantic evening- lay you down on the plush bed, and slowly strip your cute little outfit off of you. he likes being in the bed, you’re comfortable and at ease, and he has room to bend and fold you exactly where he wants you.
he enjoys shower sex as well, the steam leaving the two of you stuck together, the cool tile on his back as you get on your knees- drives him crazy
.✦ motivation (what gets them going?)
nothing will excite him more than a lil game of cat and mouse- subtle flirting and hinting from his partner all day. it irritates him, but he loooves when you play dumb, as if you’re so innocent you could neverrrrr.
.✦ no’s (hard no’s in the bedroom)
levi does not enjoy being submissive, a lack of control can be very uncomfortable for him, and maybe enable his insecurities or anxieties about physical intimacy. but he’s not selfish, he’ll let you take the lead once in a while for your comfort and pleasure- but don’t forget who’s in control.
i also can’t see him enjoying any bodily fluids except for cum..LOL.
.✦ oral (giving? receiving? how often?)
this man is a MUUUUNNNNCHHHHGG!! nothing brings him more confidence and inner peace than absolutely devouring your cunt whole. this is of course connected to his want for control as well as self worth. he truly deems making you feel good as his duty, but he won’t overdo it simply because immediately after you cum, he’s satisfied. he’ll eat you out pretty often, and views it as a crucial part of foreplay.
“it’s okay, i’m here. c’mon, i wanna taste you letting go.”
but don’t get me wrong, when levi is especially pent up or frustrated all he can think about is stuffing your throat full of his cock. he loves watching your pretty face- mouth hinged open taking him in slowly. but he doesn’t crave it very often, but he won’t deny you if you insist.
.✦ pace (how fast, slow, rough, or gentle?)
once again i can definitely see levi being a bit of a wild card here .. it’s always a little rough, it’s the only time he allows himself to really let go and indulge in his cravings. he gets so pussy drunk that he loses his tempo, rutting up against you harder and harder to chase his high. but rough does not always mean fast.
levi views sex as making LOVE!! this grumpy guy is a sucker for a slow, intimate, ROUGH fuck. breathing in your moans, softly kissing you while pile driving you into the mattress- when it comes to speed, it’s almost like he matches his pace to your mood. it’s what you want <3
.✦ quickies (opinions, how often )
levi enjoys a quickie, either of you being overcome with neediness and passion for the other, not caring who’s around or what’s happening- needing the other to such a pathetic extent. but he typically won’t initiate them, he’s still a lil shy, and public quickies depend on the location. somewhere gross or uncomfortable might bring him outta the mood.
* at dinner *
“leviiii, c’mon, let’s go to the bathroom..” you slide a hand up his thigh,
“right now..? how about the car instead, i’ll pay, you can go wait for me hon.”
.✦ risks (are they willing to experiment?)
with his dominant nature, levi was veryyy experimental in the beginning. finally having a beautiful vessel to tinker with drove him over the edge- ropes, toys, dirty talk, fantasies, he was obsessed. what breaks you the most? what makes you squirt? he wants to know the answer to every single one.
once the relationship is more established, levi calms down the “kinkiness” a bit, other than what you both communicated enjoying on a regular basis. but, if you present an idea to him- he’s willing to try just once, just to see how hard you’ll cum in this new atmosphere.
.✦ stamina (how many rounds can they go? how long?)
levi is a soldier- a machine, getting winded, wheezy, or weak isn’t new to him. he wants to break you, make you so fucked out that you can’t even speak. he wants to see you crying from overstimulation, whimpering broken words into the air. but he’s a human.. so i’m gonna say on a good day? 3 rounds that are at MINIMUM 30-45 mins.
.✦ toys (do they enjoy using them)
depends on the toy and how much you enjoy it!! for his preferences, he loves ropes, handcuffs, he’ll even try out a blindfold here n there. vibes? yes! he loooves holding your hip in missionary, pushing the wand against your swollen clit while slowly drawing in and out of you, watching you seize and spasm below him.
.✦ unfair (are they a tease?)
levi is a soft dom, he’s harsh and mean because he wants to make you feel good. but he doooes love watching you come undone, and the best way to get you there is to tease and taunt you- withholding your orgasm until you’ve been a sweet enough girl :)
.✦ vocal (how much noise do they make?)
levi loves dirty talk because he means every single thing he’s saying- and he loves watching you blush and try to hide. he also does it to cover up his pathetic little whimpers and moans.
i can’t see him as like, a SCREAMER. but i can see him pant and releasing sighs of pleasure, he’ll let a couple of small grunts escape but he’s not one to put his own overwhelm on display.
.✦ wildcard
walks around buttcheeks out after sex for a bit. :3 he’s got some goods to flaunt !! and he’s gonna shower right after .. why dirty his clean clothes or nice robe with sweat and sex all over him?
.✦ x-ray (what it looks like)
again, levi is isn’t the biggest guy around. i can see him packing a HEALTHY 5 and a half inches, maybe 6! nothing huge, but he’s sure not small either. i could maybe also consider him being a grower, not a shower.
.✦ yearning
#1 yearner. he looooves you, every part of you. he enjoys all of your qualities and even when there are things about you that irk him, he finds something within it to appreciate. yearning for sex? well, once he had a taste he was obsessed. but he’s subtle with it, never outright out of fear of making you uncomfy.
but in his head? he’s counting down the moments until he can be reunited with you, and your pussy! <3
.✦ zzz.. (how fast do they fall asleep?)
this man is TIRED. cmon, he’s pushing 40 with the work ethic of a machine. he hits the pillow and DIES. especially when he feels safe, comfortable, and clean.
levi masturbation hcs too please when you have the time :))
levi masturbating;
levi rarely gets off, like i mean rarely, his libido is pretty low and even when he is horny he tries to hold back
it’s not that he necessarily finds it gross or disgusting, it’s just the cleanup afterwards and he has major post-nut clarity
like, you know that tiktok sound that’s like “what is we doing....” that’s literally levi. he just can’t pinpoint the fact that he went out of his way to get himself off, plus it makes him feel like insecure ish
like not necessarily insecure but it’s like... i have to get myself off... this is pretty pathetic—
anyways he probably likes to do it at night and in his room when he knows he’s alone for a fact, it gives him a sense of security, even when he’s home alone he’ll lock his door
levi preps himself for this, don’t ask me why, but first he has to make up his mind, like he’s probably been thinking about getting off hours before he even does it because he’s trying to convince himself to do it🧍🏽♀️
i feel like levi doesn’t use anything to get off unless he has to, like his thoughts are enough. he’ll throw his head back and close his eyes and just let his fantasies let loose
definitely a slow stroker, he’ll start pretty slow, just trying to get his imagination going and getting accustomed to the feeling again, but the longer he goes the faster and rougher he gets
i mean my guy starts going at it, his face’ll start scrunching up, his mouth will be open and he’ll even start bucking his hips into his hand
i’d say it takes levi maybe like 5-10 minutes. like, i know most guys can get off pretty quickly but i feel like the littlest things will turn levi off, so if something isn’t going right in his imagination he’ll stop for a couple seconds and it’ll mess him up, then he has to try again 😭
when he finally does nut though, he groans loud, it’s like he was keeping something in and he just groans like its nobodies business. i generally headcanon him as not loud in bed but not because he can’t be loud but he doesn’t want to be, but by himself he’ll make some noise if he really needs to
like i said, major post nut clarity, after he sits there for a couple seconds and relaxes his muscles, finally opening his eyes the sight of his cum just like— “is this who we are?? is this what we represent??”
definitely grabs the napkin beside him and wipes off his hand, then gets up and washes his hands asap
he will try to justify with himself and then ignore the fact that he just jerked off, and will go about his day/night (probably usually at night)

au where kuchel survives. she started cutting levi’s hair as a kid and when he got older she taught him how to do it himself. since learning, he started cutting his own hair and wouldn’t allow anyone else to come near it with a pair of clippers.
except his mama. every now and then, if he visits her and she notices it starting to grow back, she’ll point it out and tell him to sit still so she can fix it. he reluctantly allows her, because he knows it brings her peace. the memory of caring for her boy, who will always be her boy to her. the only happy memories from her underground days consisted of caring for her beloved son.
levi doesn’t show that he enjoys it, because he’s a grown man letting his mother do his hair. it should be embarrassing. but truly, the feeling of his beautiful mama’s gentle hands in his hair deeply soothes him. for just those moments, it brings to light the inner child that he’s kept buried deep within him. the one who despite his mother’s best efforts, never had the chance to really be a child in a place like the underground. he won’t say it, but with a mother’s intuition, kuchel can sense it. there may be a scowl of annoyance on his face, but the way his shoulders relax tells her differently.
Imagine comforting Levi as tears slowly fall from his eyes. At first, he don't want you to see him in his vulnerable moments, dont want you to see him look weak, But in that moment, he's too tired to hide. Too vulnerable. And somehow… it feels right to let you see that side of him.He lean into the comfort you give.No words, just warmth It's a connection that's worth more than words to him. He love to lay his head on your chest when his feeling are too heavy and lay his head on your laps while you play with his hair surrprisely he feel more peaceful for once, he don't pull away.Because with you, he feel safe. And for Levi, that feeling is rare enough to be precious.
when levi brings his special someone home to meet his mother and gets shy about it.
It's been only, what, a few months or so since he met you on a heist by accident?
And this thug, infamous around the Underground City, has fallen in love ever since.
Without any warning whatsoever, which never happened before. And it confused the usually stoic man so much that thinking clearly became a real struggle for the most part.
Damn you and your pretty face, being nice and beautiful inside and outside.
So, being the reserved, aloof individual Levi is, he didn't confess his feelings for the longest time until last night. When he saw you in front of the brothel where his mother used to work at before.
A sight he would rather forget more than anything else.
"Ma. I wanna introduce you to someone who's important to me."
Kuchel, a curious person by nature, gives her only son a faint smile in response, gesturing for him to go ahead.
Who could that person be?
Looking behind him, she notices the person Levi mentioned within mere seconds. Honestly, given her Ackerman bloodline, it's not even shocking that her senses, just like Levi's are heightened in every single way possible.
He immediately takes note of his mother's curious gaze and tenses up, aware that teasing — playful but still mocking — would soon follow, seeing how he brought a girl home.
Nothing his mother sees on a regular basis like with other males around here, no. Levi's the most shy when it comes to opening up, so the fact a person managed to penetrate those metaphorical walls of his, higher than Wall Maria, is a feat in and of itself to her. And him.
"i see. Who is it, angel?"
Just then, another face pops into view and it's yours. Pale, big eyes and the cutest little smile plastered on your face to boot. Taller than Levi too, which honestly isn't a high bar considering this young man's small stature. Most people would tower over him, so no surprise there.
"Hi there, Miss Ackerman. I'm [Y/N], the person Levi wanted to introduce, nice to meet cha!"
Immediately, Levi lets out a groan of embarrassment, hiding half of his face with one hand while silently praying you didn't see the flush on his cheeks.
His mother, however, just finds herself quietly chuckling at your introduction.
It's.. endearing, to say the least.
"I see. You finally managed to win som'one over with tha' stubborn attitude of yers, huh?"
At that, a pointed glare is directed towards Kuchel, though without any malice behind it. When it comes to the person having given him life, Levi couldn't stay mad for long, no matter the circumstances
"Ain't funny, Ma."
Then the slightest pout — yes, an actual pout, formed on the young man's face when you reached out to take hold of his free hand, squeezing it once lightly.
Like you wanted to stake your claim on him right then and there.. and he let you.
Damn is he down bad for you. Now it's on full display for his mom to witness, too. Fuck-
"I'm sorry, sweetie, jus' couldn' help myself there, thinkin' how cute it is that you found your special someone out here."
Despite poking fun at Levi, Kuchel is genuinely happy to see company by her son's side which wasn't Isabel or Furlan, for a change.
It showed her that, although conditions in the Underground are downright horrible, people like her and Levi still managed to find their own versions of joy in different ways.
For Levi, it's finding that one person who sincerely liked him without wanting him to change or having bad intentions, letting the man be vulnerable at his own pace.
For Kuchel, it's seeing her miracle of a kid grow up healthy, safe despite all odds and — most importantly — happy.
Because damn the Walls if such an adorable thing doesn't result in making her feel bliss, everything corrupt momentarily forgotten as soon as her motherly gaze lands on Levi's rare smile — a sight for sore eyes, especially hers.
a/n: about time i wrote a little drabble about canonical divergence where levi's mother survived and lived with her beloved son 🥹 this has been an idea to write for a LONG while now so i hope i did it justice if that makes sense lmao. sorry for not being as active in posting my writings — moving's been a pain in the butt and i literally cannot get into my creative flow with all the chaos happening around me on a daily basis for over three weeks now (don't ask it's complicated). now it's 4am and i can't sleep. YAY.
Imagine a cute way of levi showing his affection to his wife by small care like making sure you're all right while you shower. changing temperatures and textures on your skin, adding details like a pleasant fragrance can make you feel more comfortable. the motion and sensation of washing your hair and body, of bending down and getting back up, doing this not because he feel forced to do it but its just his natural way to love you .Sitting in the bathroom with you and making sure you doesn't hurt your self or overdoing.
Some Levi Ackerman headcanons that live rent-free in my mind
⊹₊˚‧︵‿₊୨ᰔ୧₊‿︵‧˚₊⊹
𖹭Levi is the type to stay awake with you until he’s sure you’re really asleep, only then allowing himself to finally let his guard down.
𖹭Levi shows affection through acts of service, like making you breakfast in the morning to make sure you eat enough and don’t run out of energy.
𖹭Levi is protective. He doesn’t like letting you go on missions or crowded places, not because he doesn’t trust you, but because he doesn’t trust other people.
𖹭Levi is the type to admire you while you’re asleep. He’d never admit it, but he cherishes these moments and finds you adorable in those vulnerable instants. He kisses your forehead, then pulls the blanket up to make sure you’re comfortable.
𖹭Levi isn’t the type to show jealous outbursts, but he’s very territorial. When someone gets too close, he wraps an arm around your waist and glares at them. He doesn’t say much but his posture speaks for him. Teeth clenched, a vein peeking out on his neck. And if they persist, he’ll make a dry, sarcastic remark just sharp enough to put them in place.
𖹭Levi gets angry without throwing tantrums. He grumbles under his breath, a deep scowl on his face that you secretly find cute. You tease him about it and even if he’d never admit it, he gets flustered.
I just think that after years of surviving, love might be what heals the invisible wounds Levi himself might've never recognized.
I just imagine the way his eyes would soften the first moment he feels understood by you - the way you don't put his strength on a pedestal, don't see his scars as something to be pitied, but that you take him for who he is at face value: a man, just a man (and your man, at that).
Levi didn't know a love like this was possible for him, but he'll cherish anything he can get from you (and he vows - every day, every night - to never take that for granted).
