Hi, here are some Knight!Lee x Princess!Reader headcannons I thought of because I got bored at work.
- knight!Lee and reader enjoy reading books in the castle library and reader always asks Lee to read to her, even though she is perfectly capable. She just loves hearing Lee's voice, especially when she requests a romance book. It provides perfect day dreaming delusion fuel.
- knight!Lee loves/hates when princess!reader gets new dresses made. Reader prances around showing off her new dresses, asking Lee if she likes the fit, texture, or pattern. princess!reader purposely asks for dress to be made in Lee's favorite colors and with lower necklines.
- knight!Lee who works out on her day off and is interrupted by a curious reader ogling at her. She pretends not to notice until reader trips over something trying to get a better look and draws the attention of the other knights in the training yard.
- knight!Lee who disapproves of all of princess!reader's potential suitors because none are "worthy enough". Lee takes note of all their redflags and they debrief after the date.
-princess!reader thinks it's cute when Lee dotes on and worries about her, so sometimes she will fake a minor injury to get Lee's affection. Lee knows reader is just being dramatic but she enjoys getting to take care of her in such a soft domestic way.
- princess!reader who gives knight!Lee gifts for any minor accession. "Happy first Sunday of the month", here is a basket of expensive food and wine. "Happy tax collection day", here in a limited edition leather bound book signed by the author that you briefly mentioned interest in a week ago.
- knight!Lee who just wants to protect princess!reader and stay by her side. But is conflicted by her growing affection/attraction she tries (and fails) to keep hidden.
I'm obsessed. like, you have no idea how obsessed I am. oh, my god, this is scratching SUCH an itch in my head. all the longing, all the small gestures to fuel their love for each other, all the care and tenderness. I am going insane. like, lee being so awkward at first with it, but getting into the habit of reading books for reader. lee sensing reader's devoted attention, but being too in denial to really acknowledge it so she lets it linger at the side, cheeks blushing and stomach clenching. lee getting all flustered when she sees reader in a dress with a lower cut. lee's hands being rough with years of training, but so gentle in how they cradle reader upon injury. lee not being used to such grand gifts, but being incredibly overprotective of them and reluctant to loan the book to any of her fellow knights.
LIKE, YOU ARE AMAZING. THIS IS SO GOOD. OH GOD MY HEARTTTTTT. MY HEART CANNOT TAKE IT. IN THE BEST WAY OMG.
