Hello, since the Darksiders community has had a recent resurgence, I've noticed Samael getting more love. I've read a few headcannons of how he would be with y/n. So how do you think Samael would act if he fell in love with a human?

Possesive. It's not entirely out of a desire to control Y/N, though. It's really more because he knows that Y/N is a weak point for him, and it would hurt him if anything bad happened to them. Y/N is not just a consort to Samael, but a partner. This means that Y/N must be heavily guarded at all times.

Samael is not a creature who does things halfway. His attention to Y/N's every detail is precise; the sound of their voice, the subtleties of their facial expressions, their usual mannerisms.

The sole reason he hasn't immediately wed Y/N after coming to the conclusion that he's in love with them is for their safety. He hasn't yet determined the best way to marry Y/N and also keep them safe from the vipers of Hell.

Samael is known for his ruthlessness, and this doesn't go away because of Y/N. However, if he knows Y/N is squeamish, he'll restrain himself until they're safely out of sight.

His fury if anyone dared to harm or even threatened to harm Y/N would be downright apocalyptic.

Do you also accept OC x Canon requests?

Yep! Those'll be a little trickier cause in order to do em right, I need to know about the OC in question! But I'm open to trying my hand at em for anybody who wants em.

Heeeeey, sorry to bother you. I'd really like to talk about Darksiders with someone lmao. I really want to lore dump about my OCs.

Again, sorry to bother you or if this was inappropriate. Feel free to ignore 👌🏻

Doesn't bother me. Go right ahead. My messages are open :)

An author who writes for Darksiders in NEED? I'M COMING 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

May you please write headcanon for Samael with mutual pinning for each other with human friend but said friend is self conscious about themselves cause of his ex and having nothing(in their eyes) like Lilith(power, beauty and experience)?

Sorry for grammar mistakes and feel free to ignore

When Y/N speaks dismissively of themselves in comparison to Lilith, Samael replies "Do not mistake difference for deficiency."

He finds Y/N's self-consciousness frustrating. It's not a problem he's ever had to face before in a potential partner, and Y/N struggles to see what he could possibly find worthwhile in a little human like them.

It's actually all their little human qualities that has Samael enthralled with Y/N. If only he knew how to make them see that.

If anyone dares to compare Y/N to Lilith in his presence for any reason, Samael will ensure it does not go unpunished.

To him, it's simple; Lilith is a relic of the past, and Y/N is the focus of his present.

y/n x canon is encouraged you say? could we perhaps get some War pining HARD for his human companion but being too stubborn to fully admit his feelings? (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧ headcanons or a drabble, whatever your feeling most hehe

War knows just how fragile Y/N is. He's been around humans before, during the End War, and he saw them crumble from demon claws like dry leaves might underfoot. And worse, he's gone and fallen for such a delicate creature.

At first, he denies it. A terrible engine of war like himself, in love with the weak little human following him aroumd? It's just not possible.

He tries acting cold towards Y/N. But it's as though Y/N hasn't noticed any difference. They keep being their wonderful selves.

It tears War up inside how much his mood lifts when Y/N's eyes light up. He starts doing things to impress Y/N intentionally, just to chase that feeling.

Y/N has noticed that he will slow his pace if they're struggling to keep up. He's always looking back at them, making sure they're relatively close at all times. He denies doing this when Y/N asks.

And then he starts watching Y/N sleep. He doesn't know why- rather, he tells himself he doesn't- and when Y/N wakes up to catch him looming ominously above them, he says, "I am merely keeping watch while you sleep. It would be inconvienent if we were attacked while you rested." It does not escape Y/N's notice that it would be a lot more effective to watch for danger outside the camp.

He tends to Y/N's injuries with more care than he's ever given himself. If Y/N notices, they don't say anything and let him keep his pride.

He accepts to himself alone that he is in love with Y/N- and it terrifies him. Y/N being taken away from him (by blade, by age, by another human) would inflict a wound so great he would never be able to recover from it. And as a result, he is vigilant in his defense of Y/N- even if he won't admit it to them or anyone else.
