Hiiiii! Here's a suggestion for you :D
Mammon and Levi (separately) with a sweet MC who likes to give them praise and physical affection as much as they can! They just love him so much and notice as soon as he's feeling down, and try their best to cheer him up ~♡
AN: A cute suggestion ;u; Love these guys, my little scrimblos
Mammon and Levi with an Affectionate MC
Mammon
We all know he can't handle it right? For the first while, Mammon's the kind to flinch back away from you if you reach out to him. He's not used to kind hands, kind gestures, kind smiles.
But, he more than deserved to be. Be patient, reach out slowly. He'll pretend he doesn't notice and you can finally put a hand on his cheek, and if he absentmindedly leans into it, don't say anything.
Easily flustered, but he always denies it unless he's too tired to fight any more or he's had a bad day. He'll go bright red from the base of the throat to the tips of his ears on these days, hands half raised as if to cover his face, to shield himself.
It does make these days perfect for spoiling him, for littering him in every affection you can think of. Turn your full attention to him, brush his hair and play with his hands and whisper to him. Tell him what he means to you. Comment on his bravery, about how he's always by your side, about how caring he is towards you and his brothers despite it all.
It takes a while. In fact, its probably halfway through your second or third trip to the Devildom before Mammon really gets used to it, and there's no stopping him then. He starts reciprocating, starts holding your head in his hands in return and he tries his best, tries to tell you what you mean to him. There's still an air to it, a "I'm the Great Mammon and nothing I say is ever embarrassing, its just what needs to be said!" but there's also a genuine sparkle in his eyes. He'll catch you off guard if you aren't careful.
He also, after so much work, starts coming to you for the attention. Mammon flops down by your side without asking if he can, if you'll maybe allow yourself to be graced with his great and amazing presence for a bit. Its wordless, a glance to you and to wherever he wants to be. He might even take one of your hands and place it on his head or play with your fingers. Hoping you understand what he wants. Hoping you know that in the most innocent way, its always you, you, you.
Levi
((CW: Mentions of possessiveness))
Levi... can't handle this behaviour. You're too close, too loving, too soft and warm and real. He gets flustered when he hugs his Ruri-chan pillow, for hell's sake, and now you're just there right beside him! Shoulders touching - how scandalous. He promises he isn't betraying any of his beloved anime characters in his head tearfully.
But, oh no, he doesn't hate it!! He doesn't hate it at all! So he'll learn to go quiet instead of having an outburst, of asking what you're doing, are you going to ruin his innocence like this? (Levi, sweetheart, they literally just locked their fingers with yours, settle down).
There's something to him, though. Its a bit murky and less like the Levi you know, and it bristles under the surface of his skin. You hold his hand and he holds on tighter on these days, refusing to acknowledge it - if you tease him, he'll leave you alone, he can't handle it. And if you're quiet he'll keep you close by his side, he won't let go of you for anything. You'd swear there was an ache to it, a desperate plea hidden in something that seems almost off the edge of sinister. It might take a while to remember he's Envy, he's jealousy, he's a want for you to be his and his only.
A possessiveness creeps into Levi over time he never knew he was capable of. He'll still share, still let his brothers have their time, but he's almost reluctant. This is what fuels him to start accepting whatever affections you offer. Play with his hair and you get sharp eyes scanning your face and a delightful little blush, the two not quite matching up - no one else could wear that expression, no one else could look to you in such a way. It belongs to Levi, a feeling only he truly knows.
He tends to go through different periods of reactions. Possessive to avoidant to loving, the only time he won't be so reluctant to reciprocate. His hands shake like someone who knows they hold something precious, something irreplaceable. Like with Mammon, it takes time, but he'll learn how to fit together with you, how to lace his fingers against yours and swallow down the lump in his throat and push away the thoughts in his head that tell him this just isn't fair, can't he have more, does he deserve this much? Your presence starts to soothe him, starts to quieten such anxieties, and he finds himself craving it more and more. Stay with him, MC. Because he'll stay with you, now, for as long as you allow him.
