hordak imagine with a princess s/o who he often has sit on the arm of his throne, and he often has an arm around her waist, tapping idly on her thigh. what would they talk about, would he let her wander about, would he let her chat with entrapta or catra?
~ First things first Hordaks lover is a queen not a princess and he won't take anything less. He is a king and therefore he needs a queen by his side. Not someone below him but someone who can stand with him and be an equal. He has no interest in coddling a lover. If they can't keep up they shouldn't be his.
~ Once his queen has earned his respect they are more than welcome to either sit on his throne when he's not in the room, sit in their own throne, or sit in his lap. He however perfers when they sit on his lap and just chat with him. Something about their close proximity and how he can easily just stroke their face or touch their hair while they talk makes his insides flutter. It's very intimate and he loves spending time with his queen. He could spend hours holding them close talking about anything and everything.
~ He is a scientist and a strategist. He needs an s/o who can keep up with his mind and his crazy ideas. He wishes to invade, to rule and too do that he must be ten steps ahead of his enemy. New weapons. New warriors. New bases. New strategies. Following him and his train of thought is essential to be his partner. But if you see a flaw in his plan or notice something he isn't thinking about in his ideas point it out immediately. He'd rather have his pride wounded than a battle lost or a plan thwarted. You are the only one able to correct him so don't be surprised when generals and force captains stare.
~ You don't have to be as smart as Hordak to be his queen. He just wants someone smart enough to understand the basic ideas he's trying to convey without him dumbing it down for them. Science, biochemistry, and Strategy are some of his favorite subjects and he wants to talk about them. He will listen and talk about whatever you want to as well as long as he feels like it's not a waste of time.
~ Alternatively if you are as smart as him or even smater than him it is a huge turn on. Most of his army and his generals are bright but they could never match his wits. A queen who could not only outsmart him but have confidence and sarcasm while doing it will get him flustered each time. He may seem angry when you correct him but really he's just proud and not good at articulating it. He's also not used to being wrong.
~ Genuine praise and admiration from his queen will shock him every time. He feels very humbled when he outright gets a compliment from you just because. He will smile softly if no one is in the room and will watch you with a dopey smile. He's always in a good mood after you give him a small peck and a compliment.
~ Hordaks not one for grand romantic gestures but he loves you full heartedly and would die for you. You are his queen and he'd lay down his life for you because you'd do the same. Once he falls truly and deeply for his queen there is no going back and he will love them forever.
~ Expect lots of physical gifts since he's not good at showing his love emotionally. He knows your feelings and emotions are important and he wishes he could express how he cares better but until he learns this is how he shows that you mean the world too him. He'll give you only the finest clothes, jewelry, perfume, flowers, and foods. Anything you could ever desire he'll give you. Say the word and it's yours.
~ Dates include lavish dinners in your private chambers, spending time in his personal library reading to each other, cuddling on his throne reminiscing about war stories, and flirting in his science lab. He may not be a romantic but he makes sure any date with you is special and that you enjoy yourself. He just wants you happy.
~ You are known as his queen through out his empire. He has no need to hide you. He is protective of you but he won't keep you trapped in your shared quarters and the sanctum. Besides Hordak knows you can take care of yourself so while he spends long hours in his lab he trusts you to take care of what's going on in the Hoarde.
~ Hordak gets excited when another base is built or an Etherian village is taken. He has a habit of bringing you small gifts from his conquests and depsite being terrible with emotions he does know how to catalogue what you do and don't like. He's an expert on your tastes and always brings you souvineers and things you'd love back from war. It's very sweet and it's the closest Hordak will get to truly romantic
~ As for the two trouble makers? Catra and Scorpia just come with your job. They give you reports and you take and catalog them. Your friendlier than most Horde memebers and no one dares be rude too out of fear and respect. Hordak is the brains. The soldiers are the muscle. And your the glue. You keep the Hoarde running when Hordaks too busy to focus on it.
~ Catra finds you amusing. Scorpia thinks your amazing. You work with them quit often and over time you've all become decent friends. Catra needs years of therapy and people who care about her while Scorpia needs to feel loved. They find these things in you.
~ Catra gets the admiration and therapy she so desperately craves from you. You tell her when she's doing a good job and how she is valued and needed just as you tell every soldier who shares their loyalty. Your not afraid to give punishment to those that deserve it but you are nothing like Hordak when it comes to morals. You tell soldiers when they do good and give them rewards when they succeed. Your punishments are aslo typically mild unless someone commits treason. Than you show why you are Hordaks queen ans number one.
~ Scorpia meanwhile gets a friend. She is very loyal and kind and honestly good company. You can't talk to her about science and mathematics like Hordak but sometimes it's nice to have a change in topic. Scorpia is a noble soldier who's full of life and gentle. You spend many nights talking of anything but the war and grow close. Hordak holds a distain for that. He gets easily jealous of your relationships and has trouble controlling his temper.
~ Occasionally Hordak gets very jealous of your relationships with others as you belong to only HIM in his mind and that can cause issues in your relationship but eventually he calms down and becomes less obsessive as the relationship continues. With you he learns how to express himself and speak what he's feeling. He doenst really need too since you understand his body language but he wants to make it easier for you.
~ All in all the relationships has ups and downs but he loves you and he does everything in his power to make you feel like a queen. You truly are his world and he loves you more than he'll ever love anyone.
