Figured it would be a good idea to put something fun together to show how this ship managed to enrapture us both so much, so behold, a joint effort from Bird Mod and Snake Mod to introduce you all to Weskrauser. <3
ft. explanations below the cut to elaborate on the points in the meme!
NOTE: These are OUR personal headcanons! This is how WE interpret them and their relationship! You are free to interpret them a different way! We are just here to have fun!
Big Spoon vs Little Spoon
betcha you were expecting wesker to be big spoon huh? nope! wesker actually prefers to have someone at his back when he's snuggling up. he tends to sleep curled up on his side, so his stomach's already guarded; therefore, he feels more protected with another body behind him instead. - 🐍
Krauser much prefers to have his back to the wall rather then a person. He already struggles to sleep with another presense so closeby, let alone in the same bed with him, as he can't get himself to fully relax. It took some time before he was able to trust Wesker enough to allow this sort of closeness. Now, neither of them can imaginne going a single night without the other. (also Krausers snores so loudly once he's relaxed <3 sounding like a fog horn type shit lmao) - 🦅
Lends Clothes vs Borrows Clothes
clothes sharing between the two of them is very difficult because they both have such drastically different styles and builds. wesker in particular tends to have most of his clothes personally tailored. that being said, wesker also LOVES the idea of dressing krauser up like his own personal oversized ken doll, so if he does have anything that fits krauser, best believe he's gonna try to get him to wear it. - 🐍
Compares to Wesker, Krauser is built like a brick shit house with shoulders big enough to eclipse the sun. If Wesker was a panther, Krauser would be a rhino. Not only that, but Krauser is also very picky about the type of clothes he likes to wear. He has a tendency to find one specific brand of shirts and pants that he can tolerate wearing, then buy a bunch of them in bulk. His closet is filled with the exact same shirts and pants. That being said, he can acknowledge that Wesker does unfortunately have... taste when it comes to clothes, with him occasionally finding the exact type of outfit that also fit Krauser's taste too. Just don't expect it to become a regular thing. (no one point out that he's enjoying this too) - 🦅
Pet Names vs Doesn't Use Pet Names
pet names are actually pretty uncommon on wesker's part, and usually aren't used with any seriousness. if anything, wesker referring to someone by anything other than their name is meant to be insulting or condescending (i.e. calling claire "dear-heart" in cv). however, this does tend to depend on what kind of relationship he has with someone, too. with krauser, 90% of the time he calls him "krauser" -- it's a sign of respect from wesker. 5% of the time he might throw in a teasing "dear" or something like that. the other 5% are the rare times he might call him "jack" instead. - 🐍
Canonically, Krauser's idea of a pet name/ nickname is also used in a mocking tone (ie. Boy Scout, Pretty Boy, Rookie, etc.). However, it is also reserved for someone he is close enough with to in order to have that teasing attitude. For everyone else, he would either not acknowledge them at all or just refer to them by their actual name with a curt tone. With Wesker, He mostly just refers to him as "Wesker" since they started off as employee and employer. Over time, he grew more comfortable enough to throw in a sarcastic "Sir" and, if he's in a particular mood, "Your Highness". In those rare few soft moments, though, he would call him "Albert." - 🦅
Introverted vs Extroverted
wesker has the misfortune of being both a misanthrope AND an ambivert lmao. he, of course, hates people and naturally prefers to be alone much of the time, however he also still has a social drive and can get lonely surprisingly easily if he's isolated for too long. - 🐍
Krauser has never been good with people, that is part of the reason why he chose to go with mercenary work. No one cared about his social skills as long as he got the job done and did it well. He struggles to carry a conversation and his words are always straight forward and almost angry. His resting bitch face does not help at all. - 🦅
Affection Through Words vs Actions
both of them are allergic to verbalizing their emotions lmao. wesker may be slightly more willing to use words, but it's incredibly rare and usually done in a roundabout way. he's only candid during sex or when he's drunk. - 🐍
Words are empty promises. Only actions carry true intent. Krauser does not care much for lip service, honeyed words too thick to swallow yet a treat for the ears. The type of thing that the people on top would spew in hopes of swaying the workers from starting a Union. His body can do all the talking his mouth isn't able to. (but he is also as emotionally avaiable as an egg, there is so much that he refuses to ever acknowledge as speaking it outloud makes it too real for him) - 🦅
Confesses First vs Waits
see that's the neat part. they don't confess. like ever. <3 - 🐍
The closet is glass but he would stab you if you ever point it out smh - 🦅
Screams About vs Squashes the Bug
"light work no reaction." - 🐍
Is it considered bug on bug violence? You know, because of the bug inside him? - 🦅
Drives vs Can't Drive
wesker can drive. he's quite good at driving. most of the time he indeed prefers to drive himself. that being said it's still fun for him to make krauser drive instead. <3 - 🐍
Designated driver since Wesker is a spoiled passenger princess who also backseat drives. (if you don't stfu he is going to crash this car into that tree he stg) - 🦅
Makes Dinner vs Can't Cook
wesker was trained to be independent and self reliant from a very young age, and this of course extended to making his own meals. wesker's never one to half-ass things, so of course he's quite good at it as well. it's a pain in the ass trying to find things both he and krauser like, tho. - 🐍
Krauser is a picky eater, although you would never know that with how he is able to scarf down everything placed in front of him. Can't taste the food when it's gone in 0.2 seconds. Despite knowing how to cook, Krauser's ideas of dinner is just his body's required daily nutrients. He eats enough to keep himself functional, never really having the time to actually sit down and enjoy his meal. It took some time for Wesker to finally get him to slow down and taste his cooking, but now he finds himself looking forward to dinner. - 🦅
Likes vs Dislikes PDA
it's kind of a mixed bag for both of them. neither of them like obvious displays of affection; their pda is quite subtle and usually done unconsciously. wesker's a bit more relaxed about it, but he generally prefers to keep pda lowkey, not because he's at all ashamed, but because he's a very private person and doesn't want other people being privy to his relationships, lest it be used against them. - 🐍
It's one of those things where anyone else watching them can see how all over each other they really are, but you best believe that it's something you're not suppose to point out. Neither of them would take kindly to having their subconsious attraction pointed out, least of all Krauser. The fact that he is always so close to Wesker and constantly has a hand on him is none of your damn buisness. - 🦅
Overprotective vs Chill Going
wesker doesn't just value autonomy and independence for himself -- he also values it for those he respects. of course, wesker doesn't want anything bad to happen to krauser, but not only does fussing about his safety seem "unsightly" for someone like him, it also would be like an insult to krauser in wesker's mind. to him, being overprotective would be like saying "i don't trust you to be able to protect yourself". they may get into it at times, but wesker would never insult krauser like that. - 🐍
The most jealous man to exist. The pinnacle of your jealous ex girlfriend who insists that she doesn't need you, yet can't bare to see you happy with someone else. That jealousy bleeds into his need to be the strongest man by Wesker's side. He doesn't need anyone else when he has Krauser. Yes, he knows that Weskers is leagues above him in terms of both strength and intelligence, but even Gods can slip up and Krauser will be right there to catch him when he inevitabely falls. - 🦅
More vs No Relationship Experience.
wesker gets out and about. he has hookups, he socializes. he generally has good people skills, and even has his handful of people he's dated. he for sure has more relationship experience than krauser -- that doesn't necessarily mean that's good relationship experience. - 🐍
Due to his denial about his own sexuality, Krauser has had his fair share of female partners. Women that had approached him at bars that he would only sleep with because that is what he's suppose to do as a man. Did he enjoy it? Not really, but so many men complain about their girlfriends and wives so it's normal to not be attracted to them, right? Right? The only upside is that he has never dated any of them, never allowing a second meeting. - 🦅
