Bestfriend!Enjin headcanons
☁︎‧₊˚☔︎︎ The two of you met after you took his umbrella during a storm without realizing it was his. After a long and rather one-sided lecture about how you can’t just take other people’s prized belongings —and noticing you weren’t paying attention to him at all— he decided to give up, make peace, and forgive you…
☁︎‧₊˚☔︎︎ He genuinely felt bad seeing you like that. He wouldn’t admit it out loud, but it bothered him that someone like you, whom he had quickly labeled in his mind as “too nice for this world,” could get sick because of him. And from that day on, he started paying more attention to you.
☁︎‧₊˚☔︎︎ Your relationship grew quickly and almost by accident. It started as casual encounters after the storm and turned into a silent routine; you walked together, shared spaces, and existed in parallel until, without realizing it, you were already inseparable.
☁︎‧₊˚☔︎︎ His bond with you is very similar to the one he has with Riyo; there’s such a deep familiarity that you can communicate through glances, minimal gestures, or even long silences without it feeling uncomfortable or strange.
☁︎‧₊˚☔︎︎ You will always, always be his priority. No matter the context, if there’s danger or something he interprets as danger, he will step in without hesitation. From trash creatures to someone getting too close to you with too much confidence, Enjin is already there before you can react.
☁︎‧₊˚☔︎︎ He has a particular way of “taking care of you”: he’s not affectionate in an obvious or overly sweet way, but he makes sure you eat, rest, and don’t get into unnecessary trouble. If he notices something’s wrong, he won’t ask directly, he’ll just stay with you.
☁︎‧₊˚☔︎︎ He’s jealous, and completely open about it. He disguises it as logic or “common sense,” since “you’re his best friend and he has to take care of you,” and it’s obvious that when someone captures too much of your attention, he holds back the urge to make a scene.
☁︎‧₊˚☔︎︎ He likes to tease you, especially when you get distracted or say something clumsy. But he never crosses the line; he knows exactly how far to go and when to stop.
☁︎‧₊˚☔︎︎ He’s not good at expressing affection with words, but his actions speak for him: walking beside you in silence, shielding you from the rain (this time for real), giving you his coat without a word, and staying.
☁︎‧₊˚☔︎︎ If someone ever truly hurts you, there’s no room for negotiation. His reaction isn’t impulsive: it’s cold, direct, and absolutely final.
