Helloo! Can I request nero with gn!reader that's bilingual/speaks multiple languages? Either dmc4 or dmc5 is alright!! ^^

nero x bilingual!reader‼️✨

here's a hc on fortuna's language that i love!! not needed to understand the headcanons by any means but still a fun read (imo but i just like languages)

i love the idea of fortuna's language basically just being italian with french influence so that's what we're going with here

reader is g/n and speaks english and italian for the sake of the headcanons :)

nero speaks both fortunan AND english fluently. you two have only ever spoken english with each other

so imagine his surprise when you say something under your breath in italian. it's a short phrase, so he understands the entire thing perfectly with no need to assume

he just fucking. slowly turns his head to look at you 😭 he's so fucking shocked

puts his hands on your shoulders and looks at you all seriously while asking "since when do you speak fortunan?"

you correct him and say you speak italian, to which he says "why didn't you tell me you speak italian? they're mutually intelligible. we could've been talking shit in front of people this entire time." (as if you guys don't already do that 💀)

bonus‼️✨

some headcanons for if the language you speak isn't italian! can be any language you want (including italian still) :)

he loves when you speak your language to him even if he has zero idea what you're saying. it makes him feel all warm and fuzzy just based off your tone and the way you look at him

he thinks it's hilarious when you switch languages just to curse people out. he picks up on the curse words pretty fast. he also thinks your language's phrases and metaphors are super interesting

he likes the way your voice changes in pitch when you switch languages. he thinks it's interesting even though his does the same thing (he doesn't notice)

Hope you’re doing alright

Imagine a part 2 to the story with the cat that hates Nero but the cat eventually starts to warm up to Nero and starts to be nicer when the reader is around

nero when the cat warms up to him‼️✨

hope this is sufficient, it's pretty late and i was multitasking between this and comforting a friend so 😭 sorry if it kinda sucks, thanks for the request!! /gen

it takes him a while to notice that the cat is being nicer to him

one day the cat is laying next to him. not on his lap but just laying next to him asleep. after a while it puts its chin on his leg and starts purring

he's like "huh that's weird" and then realises it had been rubbing against his legs and pawing at his shirt as he passes by and stuff like that lately

he brings it up after you guys turn the lights out and get comfortable and you're like "that cat fucking loves you" and he gets all warm and fuzzy inside 😭

"yeah i love that stupid cat too"

a few more sleep headcanons‼️✨

he falls asleep kinda easily. he's kinda like a dad

he falls asleep on the couch during a movie if he's tired enough.

he's fallen asleep during baths you take together. like you'll just be sitting with him and suddenly you hear him snoring behind you LMAOOO

sometimes he doesn't remember falling asleep. wakes up at a loud noise like "HUH WHERE AM I..."

drools sometimes. he'll wake up with drool on his shirt and ask if you did that. like no dude you conked the fuck out

[basically-neroland]

Hi! It's me again ^^

Can we get some hcs on showering together with our sweet boy? Just some fluff to help heal us all :)

i love shower scenarios <3 especially the innocent fluffy ones :3

g/n!reader

he's always down to shower with you, no matter what. he loves seeing you naked, but it's completely innocent (unless you guys are getting 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 that is), he knows how to keep things pg. he just loves everything about you, he thinks you're beautiful with zero imperfections.

he's holding you and touching you all over, he canNOT keep his hands off you. he loves skin-to-skin contact more than he'll ever verbally admit

groans and protests half-heartedly when you try to push him off so you can actually wash yourself 😭

but he lets go real fast if you say you'll wash his hair for him 🤭 his head is his weak spot

he loves hugging you from behind and kissing your neck and shoulders. he's super slow and lazy about it, he gets all weak when he gets that much skin-to-skin contact

bonus‼️✨

he's much more of a shower guy, but if you ask him to take a bath with you, he will. it really doesn't take much convincing LOL. he doesn't care that it's super uncomfortable for him (tall 🥀), if you wanna take a bath with him he'll do it (he's whipped as fuck)

he used to be super shy about anything involving either of you being naked, but once he gets comfortable, it just isn't a problem anymore.

his favourite thing is cuddling naked—innocently. again, he's knows how to keep things pg ✨ just 100% skin-to-skin contact? he's so down for that at all times

[basically-neroland]

i. couldn't think of a good title for this one.

nero angst‼️✨

takes place directly after the events of dmc5. it's a little half-baked but that's not a surprise atp 💔

g/n!reader

he keeps it together until he gets home and tries to keep keeping it together because it's "not a big deal" even though he feels like dying

wonders why they left. was he not good enough? was he doomed to have no blood relatives that love him? did he not try hard enough to stop them?

tries to convince himself that you, kyrie and nico are enough for him. and you are! all of you truly are enough for him. you make him happy. he loves you and you love him.

but there's this deep aching pain that's driving him insane that feels impossible to ignore and he knows you noticed. he knows you know how abandoned he's feeling and it's humiliating because sometimes he wishes you didn't know him so well

it takes some coaxing to get him to let you hold him. it makes him feel weak, but he also needs it. needs to feel comforted. and he does feel comforted once he gives in, but it doesn't help much with that ache

you try to convince him to take a day off tomorrow, but you don't try too hard. you know he needs to keep himself busy, that's how he's always coped with things

you're worried about him overworking himself but there's not much you can do to stop him, so you just love on him as much as possible when he gets home

because you know he feels abandoned and impossible to love. so you have to remind him that you do love him more than anything.

he isn't good with words, but he hopes you know how much he loves and appreciates you.

Hear me out 🙌

FTMNero In a T4T relationship with an FTM partner

Have a great day, if you don't I'll cry 😔

sorry i'm in california rn 😭 not that my posts aren't constantly very late in the day but ykwim. i thought of as much as i could while watching a movie (i'm easily distracted so it was kind of a struggle 🥀)

my day was good please don't cry 💔💔

if you were to come out to him after he's already transitioned himself, it could go one of two ways. he either has zero initial tact and says "okay. sounds about right." like an idiot and then immediately backs up and tries again, or he does it right the first time and gives you a hug and says he still loves you.

"i dunno i've been thinking i probably like men too anyway. i never was the straightest person in the room."

if he tells you before either of you transition, he's terrified of being rejected and left because. abandonment issues. he hates crying and avoids doing it as much as possible, but the second you accept him and say it's okay, the waterworks start. he keeps it quiet but he's crying so hard. it's one of the best days of his life when you tell him you still love him.

pool with nero headcanons‼️✨

came up with some stuff but it still ain't great 🥀

g/n!reader

he burns. BAD.

rarely starts water fights but retaliates accordingly if you do

he's chill to hang out of the water or in. really doesn't care

really likes just floating in the water though. it's relaxing (he ends up sunburnt. worth it [kind of])

you have to remind him to put sunscreen on or he'll forget and burn to a crisp. that being said, he burns less than vergil and more than dante

omg hii hope u are having a good day 😊i saw u were taking requests and i LOVEE all your nero headcanons which made me wonder if you’d be able to do a gn!reader and nero headcanons of them going to a park or swimming and how’d he act/what the day would be like! thank youuu! also it can be dmc4 or dmc 5 nero it doesn’t matter

hi, i actually drk what to do for this bc my brain's been fried all day... i've been having some off days lately idk. i've done something similar tho!!

the something similar

really sorry 😓 check in i'll reblog this post if i think of anything!! sorry again :(

dates with nero headcanons‼️✨

usually very chill!! he literally kills demons all day, so he wouldn't wanna do, like, an axe-throwing date or something unless you asked him to LOL

he just likes hanging out with you. y'all can take a fucking nap and call it a date and he'd love it

if y'all go out, he's paying. will not take no for an answer on that. he likes doing stuff like that for you

hates having to cancel dates because of devil hunting taking longer than it should. he has a love/hate relationship with how understanding you are about it

he always brings you flowers and your favourite candy as an apology when he has to cancel a date. always (gently and lovingly) argues when you say he didn't have to

[basically-neroland]

g/n!reader vs. nero's workaholic habits‼️✨

it's a little shitty my fault 💔💔 it's like half headcanons half super shitty drabble idk anymore

disclaimer: this is a single scenario, not vs his workaholic habits overall. i meant for it to be the latter but 🥀🥀

he's been working nonstop for like 3 fucking days, whether it be demons or general tasks that people ask of him or something he wants to do/has been meaning to do himself.

sure, he's a quarter demon and doesn't need as much sleep as a typical human, but 3 full days is still pushing it.

he's barely laid down to sleep with you. you'll beg him to come to bed, he'll give in but the second you're asleep, he gets up again.

it's worrying. you're worried. but every time you express that, he brushes it off and says he's fine.

at this point he doesn't even have to stop, you just want him to slow the fuck down and maybe take a break. gods, you so badly wish he would just take a fucking break.

eventually at the end of day 4 you somehow manage to get him to sit down and watch a movie. he's restless and fidgeting but slowly, surely he calms down. relaxes.

30 minutes in and he's passed out on your shoulder, but that's fine. you accepted your fate long ago when you made the plan. you'd made peace with the fact that you would be sleeping (probably upright) on the couch tonight. it was a boring ass romcom, how could he not fall asleep?

you knew he'd probably be right back at it the second he woke back up, but you just couldn't care about that right now. nero was finally sleeping and that's all that matters right now.

Hi! Hope you're doing good ^^

Could we get some hcs on Nero helping us babysit our little cousin?

ooh sure!! i LOVE when nero's portrayed as a caretaker in general :3

g/n!reader!

as we all know, he's like. super good with kids.

he starts out as the guy that's just like. there. like he's just there to help but stays out of things

assuming this is a somewhat regular thing, he eventually he gets more comfortable with your little cousin and starts participating in whatever you guys are doing

roughhousing. but he's so gentle about it, always. he's so scared of hurting this kid. he also lets them climb on him

if the kid asks about his arm, he gives funny answers because what's he supposed to say?? "my dad came into my garage and violently ripped it off and i almost bled out" he can't fucking do that 💀💀

"let's just say it isn't very smart to go back in time and get into fights with dinosaurs..."

will read bedtime stories and he's REALLY good at it for some reason

at some point he'd ask, "...would you ever want kids?"

[basically-neroland]

nero's cat habits‼️✨

when i tell you i was scrambling for an idea to post today...

g/n!reader

he'll see the sun shining through the window and be like "wow that looks really nice and warm" and move on, but if he's alone, sometimes he'll end up just laying on the fucking floor in the sunshine. always ends up dozing off.

sometimes he rubs against you to get your attention. if you're sitting at the table (or your desk if you have one) doing something and he wants your attention, he'll walk up behind you and rub his cheek on your head or your shoulder or something.

like i've said before, he purrs. if you rub/scratch his back or head, he'll start purring. if you scratch under his chin, he's done for. purring like a motor, blissed the fuck out. you figured this out by doing it as a joke because he was acting like a cat.

likes laying on top of you or with his head in your lap. not exactly a cat thing, but he acts like a cuddly cat when he does it, so i'm including it. he always gets super sleepy too.

he just. brings you things sometimes. if he sees something that reminds him of you while he's out, he'll get it for you, so you have a lot of random knick-knacks. he also brings you your favourite candy or snack. he's given you literal sticks and rocks before. sometimes he honestly doesn't even realise he does it

[basically-neroland]

hey hi i had no idea what to post so here's more dirty headcanons bc i'm a freak

nero's kinks headcanons‼️✨

not nsfw but not completely sfw either. idk it's not graphic it's just kinks LOL

g/n!reader

starting off strong, he likes being choked. no idea why, he just seems like he would. he likes having his life in your hands

he also likes blood. if you're a devil hunter, he thinks it's the hottest thing ever when you come home covered in it

PRAISE KINK. MAJOR FUCKING PRAISE KINK. call him a good boy and he's on his fucking knees

marking. he likes biting (demon instincts) and being bitten. he also likes when you scratch him

overall he isn't the kinkiest person in the world but he's willing to try whatever you wanna try to an extent

hm: breeding kink 🙂‍↕️ it's not my personal fav which is why it's an honourable mention but i 100% see him having one so i figured i'd add it anyway

last dirty headcanons post

[basically-neroland]

How about Nero with trans masc friend/partner that has a shitty family (not like an orphan like him, but family is shit and has disowned reader)?

ofc!! 💙💙💙

nero x transmasc!reader with a shitty family headcanons‼️✨

reader lives in fortuna for this one :3 there's a hint of kyrie as well!! she's canonically a year older than nero (source: the first dmc4 novel "deadly fortune), so she's probably a little older than you as well which means big sister vibes here <3 love her

he hates your parents with a burning fucking passion... he understands why they think it's wrong because he also used to think that. what he doesn't understand is why they wouldn't change their mindset and love you the way you are like he did

he holds you through all the bad nights. he cuddles you and whispers reassurances (nothing about you is wrong, he loves you no matter what, of course you're a real boy etc.)

every time you run away he lets you in and lets you stay as long as you want. he gave you a key for if he isn't there and everything

he's so pissed when your parents actually disown you and kick you out though. he helps you pack your stuff and lets you stay with him.

they almost didn't let him in to help because people in fortuna don't really like him and your parents aren't an exception... he just asked if they want you out or not so they let him in to help you pack

he gives you space when you need it but he's always there if you need a hug or to vent. he's not great at verbal comforting but he gives great hugs

if you haven't already cut your hair short and that's what you want, he gets kyrie to help because she cut his hair until he figured out how to do it himself. he doesn't trust himself not to botch yours LOL

kyrie is very sweet and copies the reference you give her as best she can. she is NOT to type to suggest a "pixie cut just to try" because fuck those people 💔

she tells you how handsome you look after :3 (platonically/sisterly ofc) she also hugs and comforts you if you end up crying. which then turns into a group hug with nero LOL

he loves you sosoSO much. like so much it physically hurts him. he's so in love with you

helps you get gender-affirming stuff. doesn't matter what it is, he'll find a fucking way.

he hates seeing you sad, so he does whatever he can to help. he knows he can't fix it completely and that kills him inside, but you better believe he'll do everything in his power to make you feel better or fix the problem.
