okaaayy^_^ this will probably turn into just flamefrags headcannons maybe
flame IS very smart and phenomenal at reading opponents when it comes to combat however he has dead zero people skills or social awareness when it comes to Regular Life and so it takes like. several months for him to realize that swight is flirting with him. it gets to the point where literally everyone is convinced theyre hooking up and still flame is like No bro…he doesn’t like me like that…..you’re crazy bro…..and swight is in the background gritting his teeth like Pleaaaaaseeee let me hit
swight is very casually touchy and it freaks flame outtttt at first. flame doesn’t usually show or receive physical affection from other ppl (not since the PZE with mane #brotherissues) and here comes swight, constantly throwing an arm over his shoulders or grabbing him or dragging him around places. this is horrible for flame’s blood pressure & he loves it.
swight kind of surprises himself with this^ because usually when he’s touching all over people it’s an intimidation thing or to fuck with them (basically saying “i can disrespect your personal space because we both know i could kick your ass”) but with flame it’s very much….not that. he has crazy cuteness aggression towards flame he wants to squeeze him all the time. cute little sidekick awww
flame is taller (i imagine BFB to both be annoyingly tall, flame being like 6’2ish), not by a ton but enough that swight will just. grab him and tug him down so they can kiss. yay. he also does the same thing when he just wants to talk to flame no kissing involved and flame is still all [bluescreen of death]
swight lovesss his pet names. loves fucking w flame. babe/baby/babydoll/etc, sweetheart, pretty boy, princess. all vaguely teasing bc that’s a grown ass man but also flame IS very pretty. flame can’t reciprocate he sounds so fucking awkward whenever he tries to use pet names that swight is like Stop. Just stop. Please stick to calling me bro I can’t take this. they call each other bro during sex for sure
flame is only half demon and so his body is a little more unstable (hah) as in when his heart rate gets up and his adrenaline is high he’ll start “leaking” fire. this usually happens during fights and so it’s mostly concentrated to his sword arm (which then spreads down his sword and gives all his weapons fire aspect . bc he’s fucking cool) but it can happen in other scenarios. so occasionally swight will manage to fluster him enough that flame’s arm or hair or other body part will combust on the spot. swight thinks it’s hilarious, flame is mortified every time.
vivid mental image of swight having to chug fire res every time they have sex LMAO
mane does NOT fuck w swight. they would actually probably get along pretty well if flame wasn’t in the equation, as they have pretty similar outlooks on combat and what the point of living is in general (hedonism lol), however this guy is creeping on his baby brother and mane simply cannot stand for that. they crash at mane’s place after a job once and mane immediately pulls flame aside and is like “bro it’s fine if you’re gay but can you pick ANYONE other than him” and flame is like “i’m not fucking gay???!!” swight does not help with this because he catches on immediately to what mane thinks of him and starts playing into it. like Yup i’m nailing your brother for sure yeppp he’s a great fuck. a physical fight breaks out. swight is banned from the house.
swight runs cold and flame runs abnormally hot so he gets used as a space heater when they’re in snowy areas. and vis versa when they’re in deserts or mesas, swight will shove his freezing hands under flame’s hoodie to keep him from melting and flame gets really embarrassed about it but it does actually help
i view uu flame as a trans guy this is like an unshakable truth for me (mane did his top surgery ((while blindfolded)) when he was a teenager and it was at least 70% motivated by the desire to make it easier to find chestplates that fit) anyways swight is like. D1 eater. he begs for it. flame thinks he’s soooo fucking strange <- super into it
flame wears the blindfold as a weird self-discipline thing, he’s trying to even the playing field for other players and make fights fair by handicapping himself (since he’s so far ahead of most people in terms of skill). also mane is actually blind and there’s a history there but w/e. not important. the point is that flame doesn’t feel the need to wear the blindfold around swight because swight could kick his ass regardless of the handicap or not, so like, what’s the point. this gets him some WEIRD looks when he mentions it to other people. he doesn’t even take that shit off around LOMEDY.
however what flame does not realize: he has ridiculously beautiful eyes. just unfairly pretty. swight genuinely can’t look him in the face if they’re talking and flame has the blindfold off because he gets distracted and zones out of the entire conversation. it’s a very real issue. flame is completely oblivious to this of course
swight asks flame to pierce his ears for him bc flame has approximately 1 million facial piercings and swight thinks they’re cool asf and it is exactly as gay and pathetic as you would expect
swight also does this thing where when they travel for jobs and have to spend the night somewhere he’ll intentionally get rooms with one bed and be like “Damn that’s crazy this was all they had left. Guess we have to sleep together I mean sleep together I mean sleep together I MEAN. Share the bed.” and flame thinks it’s kind of weird but hey maybe swight can only afford the 1 bed rooms flame knows he’s kind of broke. and this goes on for a WHILE until they get together and swight cops to doing it on purpose and flame is like Ohhhh yeah that makes more sense and swight is like Bro. Please tell me you didn’t think i was too broke to afford 2 beds. For the love of god. and flame is like. Um. Well,
flame has a really big soft spot for animals and particularly dogs that he’s very bad at hiding and swight thinks it’s adorable (if kind of stupid) when he figures it out but then a little while later he realizes that he’s been subconsciously avoiding fights when his opponent has dogs and when he does have to fight he’s been sparing the dogs and he’s like. genuinely frustrated because what the fuck he CANNOT be this pussy whipped
swight is lowkey beefing with ashen over who gets to be flame’s favorite. is it embarrassing to be fighting with a dog? yes. the dog is winning.
