Phainon Headcanons (Both SFW and NSFW)
A whole dump of my Headcanons for our dearly beloved Phai-chan (♡ω♡ ) ~♪ Since it's my birthday and I don't have anything to do (aside from my pending pr2 i.e. research that I'm NOT going to finish ╹▽╹ ), might as well make use of my spare time to yap about him (I got too lazy finishing my drafts and sketches stg). Anywayssss, bear with me for this yap fest 🫶 May have some things that can be considered as trigger words so please do tell me! Also screw word count, I never learned how to count anyways 🫠
!!DISCLAIMER!!
The following Headcanons below are of my own interpretation and are not canon (nor implied to be done by Phainon in story or in game). You guys don't have to agree with all of the things I've listed here as it is up to your views on the character how you see them in general. With that out of the way, I hope I don't catch any strays here 🙏🙏
Trigger warnings: Mentions of mental disorders (Depression and Borderline Personality Disorder), mentions of self harm, nsfw stuff, the usual.
First and foremost, let's start with Phainon's physical attributes!
(SFW ver.)
💞Personally I'd think he'd be around 6'2 ft tall (Mydei would probably still be taller than him but it's up for debate).
💞He's definitely built that's for sure. Almost similar to Mydei's build (with Mydei being a tad bit buffer than him), but I'd say Mydei still wins the chest size difference.
💞Killer biceps and thighs mmm 🤤 With how much he moves around and trains, his body gets built like a tank in no time (We love physically active men here 🙌)
💞His eyes are a mix between puppy eyes and droopy (sleepy) eyes. The tear stain like thingy in the corner of his eyes just tells me how little time he has to rest (could also probably because of him crying. a lot.)
💞Has a very expressive face but can also hide his emotions for a certain amount of time (the way his eyes and temples soften or tense depending on the situation pretty much gives away what he's feeling at the moment).
💞Bed hair. That hair to me, looks like its bed hair. Idk, I'd like to personally think he doesn't care much about his hair and just brushes it up a little with his fingers.
💞Has a bit of fangs in his teeth
💞 I'd see him not having grown nails (he probably likes to chew on it when he's deep in thought, or when he's on his own and is agitated by something).
💞Back muscles, he has them (HE HAS TO HAVE BACK MUSCLES LIKE MYD- I'll go see myself out). But seriously, he'd definitely have a toned back.
💞He has to be a bit tan knowing that he's pretty much out in the sun almost 24/7 (it's mostly prominent during his days in Aedes Elysiae).
💞He has big legs. Not hairy, but he definitely has big legs (which is good considering he's both a fighter, a runner, and has the ability to swim).
💞Has a mole somewhere in his neck, most probably near his sun tattoo.
💞Big hands (with long slender fingers and are calloused mmmm 🤤🤤🤤)! And he's good at using them too, not just in y'know.
💞His face is just built like a model's face (obviously. just look at his in-game model 😭).
👁️👄👁️ (NSFW ver.)
😝 Realistically speaking, he'd probably have above average dick. Not monster levels of dick, but certainly bigger than the average size (around 6-7 inches).
😝The tip, however, is big. A bit bigger than the shaft but definitely something you'd cry for. Also a mix of pink and red (looks like a mushroom shape of some sorts).
😝Lengthy and thick, just the way we like it (Is he a grower? yes. Is he a shower? hella yes!) whether it's erect or not, you could tell that he's packing.
😝 It'd probably be pale with a hint of pinkish red (referring to the shaft)
😝Big boobs that's for sure (and those nipples too. Mix of pink and brown, leaning towards brown but still a fair mix of the two). Succulent, I must say.
😝 He's not fully shaved, but definitely not an amazon forest down there either. Not a happy trail haver too unfortunately 🥀
😝His collarbone is so defined you could probably chew on it like a bone.
😝Still, his body tea is just drool worthy
Moving onwards, let's go to his personality, mental state and habits!
(SFW ver.)
💞Puppy behavior! his whole demeanor radiates puppy energy behind a big dog image (a samoyed one to be exact)
💞An ambivert. He does both well in social gatherings and being alone by himself but he'd definitely try to get himself out there to avoid having mental breakdowns (my poor shayla 😭🥀)
💞Speaking of mental breakdowns, DON'T let this man's happy-go-lucky attitude fool you, he is NOT mentally stable.
💞Most likely has depression (sulks himself in his own chambers when he has free time but he desperately tries to avoid doing this, especially during the night when he's all by himself). There are rare times when he has to physically get dragged by someone out of his room because of this. They'd think it's just because he's tired but it's not the case (for the most part).
💞 Constantly crashes out (on the inside. There's no way he has that much time nor space to let out his pent up stress and frustrations with how demanding his duty as a Chrysos Heir is).
💞Just a personal headcanon of mine but I think he'd have BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder) due to the millions of cycles he has to go through (33,550,336 to be exact)
💞Gets himself injured/wounded too often not because he's brash or anything, but rather because he intentionally lets himself get hurt (the battlefield is his only way to have his crashouts disguised as rage. He's careful not to do this in front of other people and Chrysos Heirs).
💞 Casting negativity aside, he's definitely a joker type of person. He'd definitely do well with dad jokes even though they may sound corny at times (playfulness is sorta in his middle name).
💞A certified rage baiter for sure
💞 He's easy to get along with. Just don't get on his nerves too much (being too pushy especially when it's your first time meeting him).
💞 Constantly stretches his body before going to meetings or doing his work (it helps him relax and ease his muscles from anxiety).
💞Nail biter (we twinnin 🥀)
💞We know how his fashion taste is a mess, but he's getting slightly better at it day by day. Still, he couldn't help but wear the most atrocious fits he could think of as passable.
💞Aside from treasure appraisal and sparring, I see him as the type of person who'd be so into writing (poems and journaling specifically) and crocheting. He's not good at it but hey, it's the effort that counts.
💞The type of person where if he wants to do/get something or someone, he is set to finish said goal and plan for it (unless his impulsiveness acts against him).
💞He only smiles with his eyes closed and mouth wide when he feels he's truly safe and can be vulnerable around the people he's with. Otherwise, he just keeps it at arms length with a simple smile or grin. He does relax around other Chrysos Heirs and the children at the Marmoreal Market.
💞When he's outside during his free time, he does these things: He hangs out with Mydei, or when he's alone he goes around buying artifacts and trinkets he could appraise later on, plays with the kids at the plaza, eats at Marmoreal Diner and occasionally talks to the citizens nearby, or just strolls around Marmoreal Market randomly while scanning the goods the merchant sells over.
💞Also hangs out with other Chrysos Heir members but it's mostly Tribbie and Castorice that he could invite aside from Mydei since the rest are busy doing thier duty in their respect areas.
💞One thing that is constant to him is that he is always willing to try, no matter the cost. He's not a total risk taker but that doesn't mean that he doesn't have to do it otherwise if he was given no choice (be it doing something simple or even facing life threatening situations)
💞For a man who's constantly on the go and is in multiple expeditions, his diet is relatively healthy (provided he needs to maintain his health and all).
💞His usual night routine consists of him taking a bath (with Mydei ofc before you guys were a thing. Otherwise, it's you he's seeking for whenever you're available.), going back to his room, doing some bit of skincare routine and finally plopping himself down to bed.
💞He sleeps with pillows surrounding him (him hugging a pillow with another one stuffed in between his legs, and a pillow stuffed behind his back).
(NSFW ver.)
😝This man definitely jerks off that's for sure (he's not that holy I know)
😝He.Reads.Fan.Fiction. (and erotic novels too but not too much)
😝 Honestly he doesn't have that much freakiness when he's not in a relationship. Yes, he gets horny at times but it's not that often.
Random things! about Phainon
(SFW ver.)
💞He constantly trips on random things when he was a child (Cyrene teases him because of that).
💞Since it's confirmed that he's a heavy eater when he was but a child, he's definitely a messy eater back then too!
💞Knows too much about the fishies in Aedes Elysiae and helps his father catch and sell them in their local market.
💞His mother can cook but because of how limited their ingredients are, they mostly have a diet consisting of vegetables and fish (hence why he loves salads a tad bit too much). Rarely do they ever get the chance to eat meat if his dad gets some.
💞 He's surprisingly a good singer and actually knows how to play the guitar (I swear he used to serenade you with this method at some point when you guys are still not together).
💞He is sorta stupid (and a failboy) but you gotta love him for that (it's one of his good traits sometimes).
💞 He's good at debate, yes, but he's definitely not good in numbers (not counting the time you asked him how many cycles did he suffer through though).
💞I personally think of him as a broke rich (sorta upper class to middle class level maybe) considering how he once stated that he uses his fortune to support his appraisal hobby.
💞Despite being paid a huge amount as a Chrysos Heir, he's still sticking to his village-boy mindset and easily becomes Okhema's errand boy with how he's almost always helping everyone around him
(NSFW ver.)
😝He once used a condom as a balloon (no, I am not joking) to make you laugh. You guys did get the laughs BUT because the whole time you two were just laughing your asses off, it killed the whole sexy vibe y'all have been building up and ended up not doing the deed (you guys still made out so it's fine).
😝 There's this one time while bathing with Mydei when he slipped up and intentionally accidentally yapped about his crush for you for an hour straight (Mydei kept his mouth shut the whole time to embarrass Phainon the moment he realizes what he's doing).
😝He and Mydei have had conversations about sex (Normal topic I know. But it's mostly Phainon thinking about you and then his sexual fantasies go off while Mydei has to listen to this freak of a man but also occasionally chimes in with his own whims).
😝Quick mention but whenever he bathes during the night, there might be a chance where you join him and Mydei (it's definitely awkward but nothing too silly happens. Just you three chilling, unless you guys are into that kind of stuff).
And now for the most awaited part (hopefully), Relationship Headcanons!
(SFW ver.)
💞This man is a certified romantic through and through (His parents are the reason why he treats relationships like it's something fragile and delicate)
💞His parents, oh when I tell you he adores his parent's relationship with one another, I mean it! He finds it endearing and inspiring for how he would treat his future relationship (i.e. you 🫶)
💞He has his way with words (when given the right time) but for the most part, he's just a chill guy (heh) who cracks up jokes and random banters with you from time to time.
💞If I we're to be honest with you, this man is almost greedy when it comes to love language. Like I know there's gotta be at least one or two love languages that he does more often than the others but no, he's just that willing to do everything 😭
💞Touches with Phainon are never forced— they are sought for, often needing to ask the other for permission before they could be handsy together.
💞King of consent while still being able to pull off surprise hug/kiss attacks (to which you don't find annoying nor invading since it's him we're talking).
💞When it comes to his other relationships (family, co-workers, and even friends), he makes sure that there is a boundary set so that it doesn't overlap with your relationship with him. Of course, that doesn't mean he wouldn't be close to them just as he is close to you, he's human after all.
💞In terms of jealousy, I'd say he'd be the petty type of jealous (not ina bad way, just playful and all). Though there will be times where he does not hold back with his words (you have to remind him of his image as a Chrysos Heir).
💞He yaps too much about his day (coughs coughs Mydei) to the point where it sometimes makes you jealous of their bond together. He does make it up to you by apologizing and trying to limit himself from saying too much. He also tags you along to whatever he and Mydei are up to when you're around.
💞But when you're not around, boy oh boy does he turn into your biggest admirer. If you think his constant yapping is one sided, then you're completely wrong. He also yaps everything about you to Mydei and to the other Chrysos Heir members to the point where the moment he starts opening his mouth to speak nonsense, the first thing they'll think about is you (Mydei once had to physically grab Phainon's mouth shut much to his annoyance. He admires his tenacity to continue this habit of his however).
💞 Household chores with him are not a burden because you guys takes turns doing said tasks, which is good considering that you two have jobs to work on.
💞Cooking however, is debatable depending on who cooks more better than the other.
💞In terms of either one of you being sick, it goes the same as to how you two manage household chores. But that doesn't mean that there are moments of slip ups (especially Phainon and his touchiness. He couldn't help but kiss your pains away when you're looking like that. If only he knew 🥀)
💞 Arguments are bound to happen between couples. Fortunately for the both of you, that doesn't happen often. You guys mostly just do silly banter and random debates without getting it too personal.
💞But when actual arguments happen between the two of you, all hell would break loose—and I mean it.
💞As soon as he snaps out of his rage, he's immediately begging on your knees for forgiveness (to which you do immediately forgive him. You can't stay mad at him for too long). If it's you who went berserk on him however, he is quick to reassure you that it is not your fault despite your persistent apologies.
💞There are times where he is having his panic attacks, mood swings, and impulsiveness so you definitely have to be wary of that and be understanding of his situation. Please don't ever leave his side when he's down in the dumps, he's already gone through enough.
💞And if you're also struggling just like him, he'll make sure that you are understood and will be patient with you. He understands how suffocating it is to be isolated by your internal thoughts and struggles so he makes sure that he can console you in any way that he can (healing together arc trust 🙏🙏).
💞In general, your relationship with Phainon is a mix of something you'd only experience in fiction while also being grounded by reality.
(NSFW ver.)
😝Speaking of bed activities, this man has two modes: gentle mode, or feral mode.
😝Gentle mode is his usual demeanor in bed; his touch is soft yet it lingers in your skin—almost as if its telling you how much he has been yearning for you. Everything that he does to you and your body is filled with tenderness and passion to the point where you could feel yourself burning just from his gaze alone. Of course, we couldn't forget consent as well (Consent is hot after all).
😝Feral mode on the other hand, is when he is agitated or pissed off from either these reasons: his duty as a Chrysos Heir, his fluctuating mental state, or because he just misses you so so badly. The moment his lips latch onto yours, you're already getting drained by this man. Let's not mention this guy's stamina as well. Whether he's worked up or not, he's got lots of it to spend on you (bye bye walking privileges).
😝Very, very touch starved. Besides hugging, sex is pretty much his second best option for physical contact.
😝Do note that this man is not only loud outside of your home but also inside of your bedroom. This man is not afraid to be called out by his neighbors so as long as he can moan your name and whine at how good you are to him.
😝 Basically unlocks his whole freakiness once he's in a relationship (...yeah)
In conclusion, I really REALLY love this man 🫶 Kidding aside though, this man is just full of surprises. He's just like the sun itself: dazzling yet burning at the same time. It's like he's good and bad altogether (but it depends on you how you'd treat this man, for better or for worse).
Thanks for reading guys!! Have this Phainon sketch as a way to apologize for that yap fest (and/or if I have said something that wasn't supposed to be said 🙏) Lemme know if you guys have more headcanons about this silly lil goober (◕ᴗ◕✿)
