#lads headcanons

[flirtwithluck]

Author’s Note: Just a collection of random thoughts that live rent-free in my mind. 😁

Synopsis: A collection of Love and Deepspace headcanons, character interpretations, and shipping thoughts.

How would the LIs react to being flirted with by a man?

Featuring: all the LIs, including Valko plus some side characters (Greyson, Tara, Gideon, Jeremiah and Isaiah)

OHH WELL, IT WAS WORTH A SHOT

XAVIER (word count : 65)

💚 It would take him a hot minute to realize the guy is actually flirting with him - not because it’s a man, but because Xavier is generally terrible at picking up on hints

💚 He comes across as dense, not because the idea bothers or repulses him, but because he dislikes attracting unnecessary attention

💚 He stays calm and responds plainly, letting the man know he isn’t interested

---------------------------------------------------

ZAYNE (word count : 52)

💙 Remains completely indifferent to the unwanted attention, maintaining his usual stoic expression and composure

💙 He shuts down the man’s attempts at flirting immediately, perhaps with one of his dry, cutting remarks

💙 He is blunt, polite, and formal when dismissing him - making it very clear that he isn’t interested without being unnecessarily rude

---------------------------------------------------

RAFAYEL (word count : 69)

As a gorgeous Lemurian, Rafayel naturally draws attention regardless of the other person’s gender or sexuality.

💜 Acts like a complete diva when the man first compliments him, praising him for having such impeccable taste

💜 Once he realizes the man is genuinely flirting with him, he gets increasingly sassy, making sure he regrets ever shooting his shot.

💜 Might casually warn him that he’s very high-maintenance - before proceeding to prove it.

---------------------------------------------------

SYLUS (word count : 80)

I truly believe Sylus isn’t bothered by gender. I don’t care what anyone says or thinks - in my eyes, this man is a power button or a switch.

❤️ Finds it highly amusing when a man tries to flirt with him, going as far as to play along just to see where it leads

❤️ With his heavy stare, dangerous smirk, and naturally intimidating aura, he deliberately tests the man to see how long he can hold his ground in Sylus’s presence

---------------------------------------------------

CALEB (word count : 67)

I think we can all agree that if MC didn’t exist, Caleb would probably experiment with his sexuality, especially during his days at the DAA

🧡 He’d take the flirting in stride, acting casual and friendly while laughing a little awkwardly at the situation

🧡 Using his easygoing charm, he’d politely but firmly let the man know that he isn’t interested, making sure not to embarrass or offend him

---------------------------------------------------

VALKO (word count : 88)

Since Valko is a wolf hybrid, I don’t think he’d particularly care about his mate’s gender. He might be taken aback if his mate turned out to be a man, but he’d quickly accept it.

💛 Seeing as he’s not very accustomed to human flirting, he’d be more likely to take the man’s words literally rather than realize he’s being flirted with

💛 Once he finally understands what’s happening, he’d become visibly flustered and awkwardly excuse himself, trying to put as much distance between himself and the situation as possible

SHIPPING & RANDOM THOUGHTS :

SnowCrow (Zayne × Sylus) - I just think this pairing is awesome

StarFish (Xavier × Rafayel) - So cute, but also absolutely hilarious. Their dynamic would be a perfect mix of chaos and sweetness

Greyson - I burst out laughing when Greyson went to Zayne for flirting advice because he had a crush on a Deepspace Hunter, and Zayne’s advice was to flirt using dry humor. 🤣

You can find this in the prologue of the Before Sunset, After Vows event (part of the wedding banner)

Caleb - Take away in-game MC, and I’m convinced Caleb would’ve had a crush on Zayne during their childhood, and that Zayne may have been the first person who made Caleb question his sexuality 🙆‍♂️

Gideon - would probably be the first person to learn about Caleb’s sexual orientation and would be supportive, even going as far as to act as his wingman 🫡

Tara - I agree with the fandom that she’s most likely into women 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩

Jeremiah - Look, I know Jeremiah once had a girlfriend, Bella, whom he loved dearly and even wanted to propose to before she tragically passed away during the Chronorift Catastrophe. 🥺

You can find this in the World Underneath, under the story chapter From the Stars)

Despite that, I can’t help but ship him with Isaiah. I’m a sucker for a frenemies-to-lovers trope. 💘

[auracorazayne]

Got to thinking about you/MC doing a boudoir photo shoot of your lingerie collection and how Zayne would react to receiving it as a gift

AND THEN

that got me thinking about that trend going around of bridesmaids slipping the groom spicy Polaroids of the bride throughout their wedding day and how each of the LI's would react to that happening to them on their wedding days.

I need the talented fic writers to give me their insights into this 😭

[aries-is-thinking]

I know the LADS lads are supposed to all be good little virgins who waited for you to have sex and I get that some people find that romantic or whatever but I prefer the idea that Rafayel Fucked™️ before you and like fucked around too, definitely broke a lot of hearts (of all genders), and I think he did it partially cause he was bored and it felt good but I also think he wanted to learn the best ways to rock your world so that when he finally gets to have you, you can’t leave him bc you could NEVER forget how good he fucks you

[flirtwithluck]

Hi! Could I request the Lads guys finding out you have a stalker, but not from you, through some other means, and how they'd handle the situation for you.

Author’s Note: Sorry in advance for this being so short. 🫣 I hope you don't mind and enjoy it regardless. 🙂

Synopsis: a collection of Love and Deepspace headcanons where you boyfriends protect you in their own way - quiet, fiercely, and with unwavering devotion against a threat lerking in the dark.

Pairing : all the LIs separately, including Valko x Reader

Trigger/content warnings: stalking, protective behavior, references to violence, use of evol (Zayne, Sylus, Caleb)

NO ONES GETS NEAR YOU

XAVIER

Word count : 109

💚 As both a Hunter and Lumiere, Xavier spends a great deal of time away on missions. Whenever he knows he’ll be gone for an extended period, he asks Jeremiah to keep an eye on you in his absence.

💚 When Jeremiah informs him that someone has been stalking you, Xavier’s reaction is unnervingly calm, but his eyes turn a cold, misty blue.

💚 He quietly tracks the person down, making sure the threat disappears before you realize just how close it had come.

💚 Afterward, he starts spending more time at your apartment than usual, lingering after dinner, staying the night, and finding excuses to remain close just to keep you safe.

---------------------------------------------------

ZAYNE

Word count : 121

💙 When Yvonne and Greyson tell him they’ve noticed someone lingering behind you whenever you visit the hospital, Zayne’s expression doesn’t change, but he remembers every detail they mention.

💙 He pays close attention to your stress levels, sleep, and overall health.

💙 Once he confirms you have a stalker, his protectiveness sharpens. Despite his demanding schedule, he finds time to walk you home whenever he can, especially at night.

💙 He suggests ways to improve home security, locks and safer routines under the pretense of “one can never be too careful”.

💙 When the stalker finally approaches, Zayne is already waiting. His ice Evol leaves them unable to move, and his cold, measured warning is enough to make them understand they made the wrong choice.

---------------------------------------------------

RAFAYEL

Word count : 98

💜 Thomas is the one who brings it to Rafayel’s attention, mentioning that the same guest has appeared at multiple exhibitions and always seems to have their eyes fixed on you instead of the artwork.

💜 He quietly looks into the matter himself and makes sure the person is removed from your life completely.

💜 Without telling you, he arranges for discreet, elite security to keep an eye on you, ensuring you’re protected without making you feel watched.

💜 Afterward, he suggests you move into his studio in Whitesand Bay, wanting to keep you close where he can look after you himself.

---------------------------------------------------

SYLUS

Word count : 89

❤️ Sylus discovers you have a stalker while reviewing footage captured by Mephisto. The moment he recognizes the threat, the situation is already being handled.

❤️ He tracks the stalker down before you even realize someone has been watching you, ensuring the threat is dealt with permanently.

❤️ Afterward, he teaches you the basics of self-defense, dragging Luke and Kieran into the process as practice partners.

❤️ He turns the entire Onychinus network into a shield around you, making sure you’re protected whether you’re within the N109 Zone or far beyond its borders.

---------------------------------------------------

CALEB

Word count : 132

🧡 After you’ve been spending a lot of time with Gideon, acting as his “wingman” to help him pursue his crush, Caleb learns about your stalker from him.

🧡 He immediately uses his position and resources, demanding timelines, photos, and locations so he can understand how close the threat has gotten.

🧡 He asks to see your phone, checking for any missed messages, suspicious contacts, or signs that the stalker has tried to reach you.

🧡 Without giving you room to argue, he moves your belongings and brings you straight to his place.

🧡 He tracks the stalker down, cornering them in a dark alley. Using his Gravity Evol, he pins them against the wall, his expression cold and voice chilling as he makes it clear that if they ever come near you again, they’ll regret it.

---------------------------------------------------

VALKO

Word count : 97

💛 Valko’s wolf instincts pick up that something is wrong, but it isn’t until he discreetly has his security guards keep an eye on you that he learns about your stalker.

💛 He tracks down the stalker’s location himself, relying on his enhanced wolf-like sense of smell to find them.

💛 He promises that if they ever make you, his mate, feel threatened again, he’ll tear them apart with his claws.

💛 Afterward, he becomes even more protective, making a habit of marking you with his scent and reminding others that you are his mate so others don't approach you lightly.

ᯓ ✈︎ C A L E B USING HIS E V O L ᯓ ✈︎

nsfw, 18+ mdni below the -ˋˏ✄┈┈┈

Caleb using his Evol to stop a glass of water from falling over and breaking on the kitchen tile; has a real proud smile when it was you who knocked it over—not a drop is spilt

Caleb using his Evol to cover you with a blanket while you’re on the couch and he’s in the kitchen cooking; has a big goofy smile when you release a cozy hum

Caleb using his Evol to shut his or your alarm off; really, just to cuddle you for a few minutes more—if you resist/try to get out of bed, he’s pulling you into him with his Evol

Caleb using his Evol to (subtly) tug at your towel after a shower as you’re walking down the hall; when you notice and scowl at him, he turns away and whistles, “What!? I didn’t do anything, pips...”

Caleb using his Evol to steal food off your plate/fork; the game confirmed this in the home feature hehe

Caleb using his Evol to pin you down in a tickle fight; “Hah, mm—ah! N-no fair!” With a devious grin, “All is fair during a tickle fight—you should know this by now.”

Caleb using his Evol to hand you something you ask for that’s right next to both of you; he stops himself, hands it to you properly, then proceeds to kiss you all over and apologize for, in his words, “being lazy”

Caleb using his Evol when you try to break a hug with him “too early”; “I gotta go, ’leb!” “At least 30 more seconds.” When you lean into it yourself, he lets his Evol relax—he doesn’t need it… “Okay, I lied—maybe a minute more…” It’s definitely more than a minute

Caleb using his Evol to play “keep away”; “Ooo, what’s this?” “H-hey! You’re not supposed to see it yet, give it back!” “Hmm, don’t think so.” “Y-you—!”

Caleb using his Evol (while lying in bed watching you get dressed) to tug your panties straight down to the floor as soon as you pull them on; “Hey!” With a chuckle and smirk, “Sorry, just couldn’t help myself.” ...He does it a second time, “Caleb!” When you turn around, he’s stroking himself through the pathetically thin bed sheet, “Come back to bed, hm?” “You—” Pulling the sheet down to show off his hard cock that he’s well aware you can’t resist, coupled with the poutiest expression/voice imaginable, “Pretty please?”

Caleb using his Evol—so he doesn’t have to take his hands off your hips—to lift your head up while he fucks you bent over the bathroom counter in front of the mirror; “Look how pretty you are when you’re full of me.” He moans when your eyes find his in the mirror, “Thaaat’s it—look at me.” “S’pretty...” Thrusting faster, harder, “Don’t stop looking at me.” He won’t let your head drop an inch, not until you’ve cum and he’s filled you completely

Caleb offering to use his Evol when you get tired on top; “Need my help, huh?” He cockily puts his hands behind his head, “Go on...say, ‘Caleb, will you help me?’” “Goood girl.” “Caleb will help you—always.”

Caleb using his Evol to bend you over his thighs on the couch when you won’t stop teasing him (verbally and physically); “Ngh—h-hey!” “Are you done being a brat? Or, would you like to keep going?” Groping your ass, *SMACK* “You know I can do either way.”

dom!Caleb using his Evol to hold your mouth on his cock if you try and pull away; “Ah, ah. Did I say you could stop?” He tells you just how pretty you are right after

soft!Caleb using his Evol to slowly drag the straps of your dress down during gentle kisses; the thing is, he doesn’t realize he’s doing it, not at first anyway—eventually realizing it, as the kiss gets more heated, he’s intentionally tugging with his Evol while his hands are everywhere else because he desperately needs your tits in his mouth

switch!Caleb using his Evol to keep your legs still during 69; “Quit it, pips. Stop squirming.” “Ngh—I c-can’t—” “You can. Be a good girl for me, hm?” Surprisingly, this makes it easier to focus on his cock, “Fuuck, s’good, baby. Just like t-that—keep going.”

5 Marks with Valko

Rafayel | Sylus | Caleb | Zayne | Xavier

(Everyone say thank you to @aghostreading13 for adding fuel to this fire)

One: It was in his nature to claim you. If there was a lack of time, he had to resort solely to his teeth, sharp canines finding any patch of visible skin. Not all bouts of rough lovemaking were done fully nude. Valko would take you on the nearest surface, sometimes even the floor, depending on how desperate he was. Your scent, the look in your eyes, and the way in which you spoke would determine when, where, and how he’d vault his hips into yours. 

He preferred to nibble on your neck, over the hump of your throat, or the nape of your neck. For a week that mark would remain, and he’d request you leave it on display for those around you to witness his claim. In return, he’d tip his chin up, unveiling the thick chords of his own neck. 

“Do your worst,” he’d tease, “leave your scent on me, gorgeous.” 

Every mark you left earned you a gruff groan. The rattle in his throat reminded you of a growl, one that sparked lively tussles. Traversing his shoulders and chest, your teeth would notch onto his hefty clavicle, a wet kiss following your brand. 

“The wetter it is, the longer you will remain on me. Mark your territory, play with your wolf.” 

His voice would vibrate against your mouth, his hands gripping your shoulders to keep you close. He’d hiss, begging you to bruise his flawless skin. 

“Let me show the other wolves how well my mate treats me.”

Two: Valko would never hurt you. Wild, primal play often was preceded with a lengthy conversation, as it should be, but Valko made an event out of it, often many days prior. Over dinner, maybe while cuddling, or during a post-sex haze. Your limits, his limits, and combined interests were always communicated. 

The first time his nails had dug into your skin, he paused, nose fluttering when smelling blood near the surface of your waist. 

“Keep going,” you begged, gripping his wrist, “it feels good.” 

“Yeah?” He’d provoke, “does my mate like when I leave my scratches? She wants to see them in the morning, huh, rub her hand over them as she touches herself?” 

Since then, he wouldn’t restrain himself. Neither did you. If he was heavy in your mouth, your knees bracketing his head as his tongue split your pussy, you’d rake your own nails over his thighs. It would be hard to sit after those moments, welts of red often striped over your rear.

Three: You weren’t sure whether he was taunting you when you asked why he often smeared his come over your skin. His response was related to scent.

“Any wolf will know what we have been doing,” he’d explain. 

As if he hadn’t already made that obvious with the bruises and arcs of teeth on you. This was personal. By the way in which his eyes watched his arousal glisten on your skin, it tickled something instinctual. 

“Keep it in,” he’d instruct if you weren’t busy the next day. “I want it dripping down your leg, then I know when I can fuck it back into you.” 

Four: Not all marks from Valko were given by his teeth, nails, or come. Some were given by the girth of his cock, the stamina of his hips, and his desire to remain connected. He’d divide your thighs with large palms, admiring the swollen, abused skin of your cunt. Pleasurably sore, he’d kiss you, half-heartedly muttering apologies while narrowed eyes would recognize his claim. The ears atop his head would perk forward, twitching when he’d use his thumbs to reveal your clit. 

Sometimes, he’d drag the crown of his cock over the unique contours of your cunt, drooling his seed over your bloated skin. 

“Wish you could see how swollen you are,” he always would express, “see how I look spread on your delicious pussy. Our scent . . . is just perfect.” 

His tail would swipe back and forth when you would hum in agreement, your hand descending to rub over your mixed arousal. If you brought it to your mouth, he’d suckle on your tongue, leaving an indent of his fang on your lower lip on his departure.

Five: Scenting was a mark you couldn’t see. It was also a mark you were unable to recognize. Yet, you would never deny him what he was so naturally inclined to do. Besides, it wasn’t not pleasurable for you. If you were leaving, he would toss you his jacket, nuzzling the top of your head with his cheek. Throughout the day you’d lift the collar to your nose, inhaling the richness of him. If his hoodie swamped you while he was away, as you circled your clit, you’d bite the fabric, drowned in his scent. 

He had walked into you spread out on his blankets, and he had taken you from behind, the hem of his hoodie hiked up to your ribs. When he had maneuvered you onto his lap, he had used the garment as leverage, yanking you down onto his length. From then on, the majority of the time, you were in at least one article of his clothing.

Here who I think the lads would romance if they played ‘Date everything’ most of my choices are based on their personality and who they find relatable
