Valko General Headcannons: Part I
synopsis: some general headcannons about Valko :)
his smile: when valko smiles, his fangs show especially when he's really amused or happy, but when he's trying to tease you or gets turned on by something, his touches his fangs with his tongue in a crooked smile type of look that makes him look more like a wolf than a man
he has heightened senses: this one is pretty much a no-brainer, but still belongs on the general list. all of valko's five senses are heightened to the maximum. he doesn't like loud noises because it causes too much feedback for him, strong smells make him sneeze too much, foods with high acidity levels make him hiss and gag, etc.
he has a glove collection: going along with the heightened senses, valko's sense of touch can be triggered at random some days by familiar and/or unfamiliar objects some days. there are days that one hand is more sensitive to touch than the other. to combat this, he wears gloves interchangeably on either hand to siphon the intensity of different textures. in the lab, however, he tends to wear gloves on both hands because he's constantly doing research and labwork.
he's nearsighted and wears reading glasses: valko typically only wears his glasses at work and they're usually to help him see afar. he also owns reading glasses he wears at home with anti-glare lenses to combat the eye strain from his laptop screen when he's working late into the night and early mornings.
he's streetsmart: valko was homeless a few times in his upbringing and survived on the streets with his wits, physical strength and hacking skills. because of this, valko learned how to stay alive and vigilant, specific handshakes for different gang/black market members, how to fight without his evol and became a prowler at night in the poorer districts.
he's so unserious: valko is very playful and absolutely loves to ragebait his family and friends. he's the type to look up what's trending on tiktok and learn the "I want you back" NSYNC dance just to make you laugh and smile. he's the type to play-fight with you randomly and act on his intrusive thoughts.
he's clumsy: valko portrays a smooth and collected personality to the public, but he's the type to trip going up the stairs and have a love/hate relationship with gravity (pun intended hehehe).
he's into fitness and nutrition: as a child, valko was the runt of his pack, too small and scrawny. this made him adamant to take interest in his own health and maintaining it not just for scientific reasons but because he never wants to be at the mercy of anyone or anything ever again.
he's an overthinker and his worst critic: valko is the type to plan 10-steps ahead. this bleeds into his relationships with others (romantic and platonic) as he'd be the type to plan a perfect date and stress about it 2 weeks before it happens, but can also plan a board meeting presentation in under 2 hours because he's been thinking about it since last week. there is no in between.
he's protective and loyal to a fault: as a werewolf, family and loyalty is everything. belonging to a pack is all valko has ever wanted and hes the type to fiercely defend his loved ones even if it costs him.
missing my wolf a little extra this morning :(
