Something that's really surprising to see is that after the Skyward adaptation news apparently there's at least a percentage of people in the fandom that don't know this series...like...exists.
Which is really sad because Skyward is an amazing series and hopefully more people will give it a chance now that it's going to be a show.
AKOTSK Men and their Attachment Styles, please? who’s most needy and anxious?
AKOTSK men's attachment style and love language
For Baelor, Maekar, Valarr, Dunk, Lyonel, Daeron, Aerion x gn!reader
Baelor
Baelor is definitely a very secure man. He is the definition of a confident, secure man and a walking green flag.
When you leave, or one of you goes away for a few days without your company, I definitely feel like he gets a little anxious and worries about how you are, but nothing too crazy. He just wants to make sure you are happy and comfortable, and you are not being there or away for a time; he worries for your well-being.
He is big on communication, so if he feels anxious or unsure about something in your relationship, he will speak up, and if he sees you feeling anxious or worried will definitely sit you down to talk through it.
He doesn't want anything left unsaid, especially if it hurts him or you.
His love language to you is definitely gift giving. He loves to spoil you and will not hesitate to buy you whatever you want. He doesn't do it to buy your love, but from the simple fact that he just loves to spoil you and deck you in all the best jewels and silks and whatever else your heart desires.
The love language he definitely loves from you is acts of service. He loves it when you help him or offer to do something for him, he mentioned in passing. whether it was mending a shirt he kept forgetting to send to the seamstress, or putting his books away after he left them askew over his desk. or making sure he eats when he gets stuck in endless meetings.
Maekar
Maekar at first is pretty avoidant. He's learnt to be over the years, and suddenly having you there caring for him and asking him if he's eaten or wants any help definitely throws him through the wringer. And definitely after he falls for you, he grows very fearful and tries to push you away out of fear of losing you. It's just who he is - but as he grows used to you, forcing your presence on him every day, he grows a little more secure, but is still definitely in the category of Avoidant fearful.
Being the youngest and always in the shadow of Baelor and always finding himself looking after his brother Rhaegal and fighting for his mother's attention, he was definitely pushed to the back burner of his mother's affections and as a result, he is very independent and has low self-esteem.
He doesn't get what you see in him, even if you spend your days telling exactly what you see and love in him.
He is definitely anxious. When you are away or angry at him, he definitely punishes himself and worries; he overthinks everything when it comes to his relationship with you, because he is definitely someone who falls slowly but hard, but does not communicate how he feels.
His love language with you is quality time. He loves spending hours with you completely uninterrupted. He always makes sure to spend every meal, every tea, and every day where you just wish to spend hours in the gardens of Summerhal together. He wants to spend every moment with you, to the point that he has to be physically torn away from you at times.
You with him always give him words of affirmation. He loves to give them to you, praising you and complimenting every aspect of you. But he really preens when you do it to him. It's the only time he blushes when you call him "handsome" or compliment his physique and skills. He tries to act tough, and those words don't affect him, but he definitely strops when you don't compliment him somehow.
Valarr
Valarr, of course, in anxious and needy. He needs affection nonstop and is the type to pout whenever he has to go days on end without you (the days being the time between lunch and dinner). He needs constant reassurance, and he finds that with you, he gets very jealous. not in a possessive sense but in a longing sense. he can be possessive, of course, I definitely see that with him. But his jealousy can be ov little things like spending time with his little brother Matarays, when he is right there (he wouldn't be, but he is the type to say "you could have come and found me" with a pout on his face)
It's not that he isn't secure - he is, his father made sure of it, but he also worries about all the weight of the realm on him and pleasing his father, that whenever you are away from him, he worries he isn't doing everything he can to make you happy.
His love language is definitely physical touch. He wants to be touching you constantly. if your next to him, he his holding you somehow, kissing you, whether he can. He is big on PDA. He doesn't care where they are; if he wants to hug you or kiss you, he will.
He also loves words of affirmation, from you and him. he loves to give you praise. You are perfect to him, and he makes sure you know it.
He also always makes sure to spoil you, you need never ask for everything because Valarr expects your every need and fulfils it before you even realise you need or want something.
Dunk
Dunk doesn't get what you see in him; you could have anyone you wanted, and yet you choose him. So, as a result,lt he is quite anxious. He wants to make you happy in any way possible, and since he has low self-esteem (seeing as Peter Claffey has never looked in a mirror and doesn't belvie him self to be conventionally attractive). He is definitely worried he'll lose you to someone better, no matter how much he reassures you.
He struggles to communicate his fears, not because he doesn't want to, but just because he knows you won't understand them. To you, Dunk is everything you ever wanted, and no matter how much you reassure him, he knows if he speaks up, you'll leave him a blushing mess as you praise him.
Your love language with him is definitely words of affirmation. All you do his praise him, reassure him and express your love to him, and he loves it, even if it makes him stutter and blush.
With you, his love language is definitely acts of service. He will do anything and everything for you. can't reach something? He's grabbing it. Don't like a particular chore? He's doing it from now on. Do you need anything? Even if its juts killing a spider or speaking to the merchant at the market, he is doing it for you.
Lyonel
He is the definition of a secure man. He is confident in himself and your relationship. He knows what he wants, and he's worked hard to know what you like. He might not be a walking green flag like Baelor, but he is extremely secure in your relationship and communicates his needs clearly.
But despite this, he is a needy guy. he needs touch, and he needs you. When he travels, you are travelling with him. if you need to do something, which means leaving his company, he wants to come with you. It's not from a lack of self-esteem or a need for reassurance and approval in your relationship, but from a sheer want to touch you and be close to you. Your constanlty sat on his lap in feasts. Not a night goes by where he doesn't wrap himself around you entirely in bed.
He doesn't have a set love language. He loves to praise and tease. He loves to touch and hold you. he loves spending his time with you, and he loves spoiling you.
When it comes to your love language with him, he loves acts of service with quality time. He loves it when you go to every part he throws, loves it when you help him plan them. And he loves it when you watch him train for tourneys. He just loves it when you watching him.
Daeron
He is definitely the most needy. He needs your attention. he needs your focus and your love. He adores you and is so anxious every time you leave him, every time he messes up or gets drunk, he worries how you'll react, and worries that you won't take care of him. But of course you do, and he loves it.
He loves it when you take care of him, and it definitely makes him more needy. He needs to touch you, and he needs your words of affirmation. He loves your praise, even when it's sprinkled in with a little degradation.
In your relationship, he is definitely very anxious. He needs constant reassurance and love, and you're more than happy to give it to him, especially as his love language is touch. He is always holding you, hugging you and burying himself in your body.
Aerion
He tries to be avoidant, acts like it, but he isn't. He's actually very needy. in an entirely possessive way. He needs you to know that you are his and only his. It drives him insane and angered when you act like you aren't, he needs to reassure you that he has you. And once he has it, he acts like he does not care. He hates when you check on him, make sure he's eaten and taking care of himself. But when you don't do it, he definitely throws a tantrum and demands you cater to his every need.
His love language is definitely acts of service, and he makes sure you thank him for it. He gives you everything you want or need, and he makes sure you know he is the only one who will do that for you. he is definitely the time to go to the lengths of ordering staff not to listen to you, just so you have to come to him for anything you need.
When it comes to your love language for him, its defienlty words of affirmation. He insists upon it. You have to praise him and compliment how much of a dragon he is. And when he doesn't provoke you to praise it, and you do it of your own accord, he gives you a quick nod of approval, but you know his possessive personality is eating it up.
He's also extremely jealous and will show it through anger and avoidance of you. but hes alwyas the first to come crawling back.
