author’s note: The alphabet here is an amalgamation of fluff templates from the following writers: @themarauderstheoutsidersandpeggy, @snk-warrior, @queervibesmydude and @imagineimagineimagine, and my own personal additions.
Adoration: What does he can’t help but gush about you?
Your eyes that see his most pathetic sides and still shine with pure affection. Eyes that trust and love him wholeheartedly.
Baby: Does he want a family?
Maybe. His dad screwed him up so badly he couldn’t even picture himself with a romantic partner, let alone raising children. But having you in his life means he’s doing better.
Comfort: How does he help you when you’re down or stressed?
He knows you’ll talk when you’re ready, so he will simply brew your favorite beverage and set up a nest for you in front of the TV. All your favorite shows and movies and podcasts are already queued in.
Dates: What are his ideal dates?
Quiet, classy and low-key. His favorite is an evening meal at a fancy restaurant, no fuss, there is just you and him enjoying each other’s company.
Everything: You are his __________.
You are his peace, his quiet in the storm. When the whole world is falling apart and the noise is too much, he finds solace just by being in the same room as you.
Fight: How often do you argue? How does he handle the fight itself and its aftermath?
Not a lot, not even jokingly. He tends to give way to your desires, simply because your happiness is his happiness. The only times he gets angry is when you do something reckless, like not sleeping enough or overeating junk food. He loves you, he wants you to live a long life, so please take care of yourself.
Gifts: Does he spoil you?
Yes. He has a lot of money and barely has any use for it. He’s not the type to buy you random trinkets though, his gifts are more in line with giant bouquets from Japan and wine from France.
Honesty: Does he keep a lot of secrets from you? Are they white lies or do they hide world-shattering truths?
He likes to keep his professional and private lives separate, so there is information that he won’t share with you. He’s also the type of person who prefers to keep his problems to himself, because that’s what “men do,” but after discussing it with you he’s trying to open up more.
Injury: What’s his reaction when he finds you physically hurt?
He keeps his composure long enough to get you the medical attention you need while his mind pieces together what happens. If it was a genuine accident, and you beg him to let it go, then fine, he will. But if it was intentional? No hesitation, no monologuing–that person is dead.
Jealousy: Is he a green-eyed monster?
He’s mature in many ways, but not when it comes to this. He gets moody when you start talking about anyone for too long.
Kiss: Describe the way he kisses you.
Cradles your face between his palms while he steals your breath away.
Longing: Who fell first? How did you two get together?
He’s tall, dark, handsome; has that brooding and mysterious vibe down pat–of course, you fell first. But he fell harder.
Marriage: Does he want to be your husband?
Naturally. Some people think that marriage is just a piece of paper, but for him, it’s another way to bind you to his side.
Nightmare: What is his greatest fear?
Your inevitable death. His kind can live eternities, yet cursed with a heart that can love transient things.
On Cloud Nine: Is it obvious to tell when he is happy?
For outsiders? No. Not even a little bit. The man has the poker face. Everyone is baffled when you tell them that “of course, he’s happy, can’t you tell from his smile?” while gesturing at his hard expression.
PDA: Yes or no? If yes, to what degree?
No. He won’t be opposed to a quick peck on the cheek or lips, but he isn’t a hand holder and definitely not the type to wrap himself around you while in public.
Quirk: What is a habit, skill or interest of his that surprises people?
He has a sweet tooth and his favorite dessert is sakura mochi, a Japanese rice cake with a red bean paste filling. He doesn’t like black coffee. He has no problem with matcha though, maybe because it tastes great with the mochi.
Rhythm: What’s his favorite song or genre of music?
It’s rock music or nothing else.
Spa: What helps him relax?
When he is off work, he is off work. The only reason he would fight a supervillain or mediate a natural disaster is because it's actively terrorizing the area surrounding you.
Thrill: Do you two try out new things to give spice to the relationship? Or do you stick to your routine?
You’re predictable to each other, which he adores. You buy him a second bottle of hair gel without him even asking and at restaurants, he orders for you because you trust that he knows what you like. His work gives him a lot of surprises already, he doesn’t need any more excitement than that.
Upset: What is he like when he is in a bad mood?
Even more reserved than usual. He answers in grunts and has a hard time keeping eye contact. When he’s in a really bad mood then he will leave to cool down, not for too long, because then you’ll get sad.
Value: How important is the relationship to him?
So much that he cannot picture a life without you in it.
Wild Card: Random fluff headcanon
He will not leave for work unless you kiss him.
XOXO: How affectionate is he?
A lot, just not in a physical or verbal sense. He never forgets anniversaries and other special dates, he never misses appointments with you, and he cleans up around the house when he notices that you’re tired.
Yearning: How does he cope when you two are apart?
He despises overtime. He’s no early bird either–he’s one of those control freaks who arrives exactly as agreed upon; if you tell him that a meeting starts at 8:00, he will arrive at 8:00, not 7:59, not 8:01, but 8:00 sharp. He wasn’t always this strict with his schedule, after all, for someone like him, time was endless. But he has you now, and it feels like he has so little time.
Zebra: If he wanted a pet, what would he get?
When he was younger–as in, half his current height younger–he found a bird in the front yard. It was a release dove, so it wasn’t afraid of him, it trusted Mark enough to let him pet its head. It was Mark’s first and only friend. But one day, after school, it was gone from its clumsily made birdhouse. That evening, his parents had beef, Mark had poultry. Nolan forced him to finish everything. To this day, Mark can’t even stand the smell of fried chicken.
Aftercare(What he's like after sex):He likes to lay in silence while holding you. He'll put you in a comfy shirt and some loose shorts. He'll make sure you have plenty of water and rub your back while you drink. He'll hold your hand and keep pressing kisses to your nose until you fall asleep.
Body(His favorite body part of yours):Your tits and neck. He'll run his fingers over your neck and slide his hand up your chest to wrap it around but not choke you.
Cum(anything to do with cum):He can't sleep in it. As soon as you are, he cleans himself off. If he doesn't remember to put a towel down, he'll put on a movie and sleep on the couch with you.
Dirty secret(self explanatory):When he's not letting you finish and realizes you're about to start begging, he'll kiss you or go harder to cut you off. He knows how crazy that drives you and loves playing dumb to see it.
Experience(How experienced is he):He had a few onenight stands. There was never any emotional connection though.
Favorite position(self explanatory):He likes fucking you against things. The Maze, the shower, the wall right beside your bed, anything. He especially loves when you can't hold yourself up even with his help so he gets to take you two feet to the bed or couch for another round.
Goofy(is he more goofy or intimate):He's a mix. He'll tease you when you're loud or your eyes roll back, but he makes sure to be gentle with you. He sees you as the only thing that's truly holding him together, and he wants to make sure you never doubt that.
Hair(how well trimmed are they):He's averagely trimmed.
Intimacy(how intimate is he):He makes sure you don't feel like a casual hookup. He'll keep his eyes on you and whisper that you're doing so well and look so good for him. He savors the way you're so close to him and caresses your thighs and waist.
Jack off(masterbation headcannons):He would jack off almost on a schedule (at the end of every week). It wasn't on purpose, but he just fell into the comfort of knowing he'll have that if he made it through rough days.
Kink(one or more of his kinks):Overstimulation, orgasm denial, voyeurism, and a minor dom kink.
Location(favorite place to do it):The shower. He doesn't really care where it is either. There's just a meter of how likely you are to get caught in his head, and he doesn't care how high it gets.
Motivation(what turns him on/gets him going):He thinks it's hot when you get an attitude or sassy with people who are being annoying, including him.
No(something he'd never do/turn offs):Slapping or hitting (spanking would be an exception). He also doesn't like porn. He's admittedly kind of possessive so he'd just prefer if that stayed out of your relationship.
Oral(does he prefer to give or receive it):He won't say no to going down on you, but he prefers receiving. He really likes to look at you and hold your face and carras your cheeks while you blow him.
Pace(is he fast and rough or slow and sensual):He's slow at first, but gradually gets rougher. He eventually gets comfortable enough to fuck you so hard there are scratches on the wall from the headboard banging against it.
Quickies(his opinion on quickies and how often):They combine things he loves. They're rough, they're usually because you could get caught if you don't hurry, and they're usually against something. The thrill of doing you without even being fully undressed and having to just rely on touch feels incredible to him.
Risk(is he down to experiment):He'll try most things once. He sort of obsesses over making sure he's doing it right though and needs two or three rounds to get fully comfortable.
Stamina(how many rounds can he go and how long):He could give you three around half hour rounds that you can barely keep up or one super long and slow one that leaves you begging.
Toys(does he use/own toys):Handcuffs, blindfolds, and gags.
Unfair(how much does he like to tease):He's the worst. He'll moan in your ear and whisper what he's going to do to you. He'll guide your hand up his thigh and slowly unzip and unbutton your pants only to go do something else.
Wildcard(freebie):He loves hickeys. He'll leave them absolutely everywhere and loves it when you wear them out. He also is shameless about any of yours. He'll wear shirts with the least amount of fabric possible just to show off. To him, they're an art.
Volume(how loud is he and what sounds does he make):He tries to be quiet, which he usually manages when he grunts. Every now and then, especially when he's close, a loud moan will escape.
X-ray(size):7 inches and average thickness.
Yearning(how high is his drive):He wants you at least once a week.
Zzzz(how long does it take him to fall asleep after):He dozes off an hour or two after you. He'll just watch you sleep to make sure that you're real and won't vanish in the middle of the night.
