Oh to be someone’s first and only obsessive thought

[sylusflower]

[sylusflower]

Wippie. I’m fighting my life with this one

SYLUS THE MAN YOU ARE

[sylusflower]

I AM NOT OKAY.

Brb CRYING right now

[sylusflower]

Just opened the app n I'm being called out.😭👌🏼

sylus mentally preparing himself to meet your family only to be completely stumped when you finally find the courage to confess to him that your relationship to your family is rather… complicated. it’s not that they’re not around but rather they are the reason you’ve struggled with so many issues growing up—and why you in turn have become a complicated person, still working through the lasting grief of this wound that became bigger and bigger.

(he knows this. he’s been a witness firsthand to the way you handle situations. through mephisto’s eyes, he’s seen the occasions where you’ve sat on an empty bench in the city looking dejected and devoid of life. he’s seen you go out into the hall to answer a call from your parent—coming back into the room with a sour expression.)

it only ends up making sense to him why you two were naturally drawn together. you both have gotten accustomed to a rather lonesome nature, and while it was no easy feat for sylus in the beginning, he can tell that you yearn for something more in spite of it all.

you want someone to care.

you want someone to see you.

and sylus does.

even as he tucks dampened hair behind your ear, sitting with you in silence as you weep over these unfair circumstances that are difficult to overcome—he sees you for everything as you are. his heart, his soul, his partner.

someone that dances with him in the kitchen shamelessy and off-beat. someone that he doesn’t mind decorating his face in cute little stickers. someone that laughs at black comedies and bad jokes (including his own).

sylus just wants to see you smile, and continue to live shamelessly. and what he doesn’t even know, or perhaps has only the slightest clue of, he means everything to you. he is everything you thought once was only a fantasy, far from your grasp.

you’re not too complicated for him at all, and being with him has been a reminder that while a relationship takes trust and work… being loved is something that isn’t hard at all. love is not a tumultuous, hostile environment, especially in a home.

sylus has been with you through this—and he’ll be with you when you finally gather that courage to cut ties for good.

perhaps him, the twins, and his little crow is the family you need.

'I've been coming here longer than you.'

'Was there a reason you started coming here?'

'It's interesting.'

'I knew you were quite curious about my world.'

'Your world? It's a world with you in it.'

---------

'Everyone here showed up in pairs. Is there anything to boast about when I see happiness that doesn't belong to me? I decided last year that I wouldn't show up this year.'

'But you're here now. It's because this year is different from before, right? Because this year, I'm here with you.'

contents: fluff. established relationship. you always sleep better when you're with him. 600 wc.

It’s been long since darkness cloaked the firmament and Sylus is absorbed in the tranquil silence of his studies overlooking documents and official records. A common routine given his atypical profession in dealing with illegal weaponry and other business practices that caught his interest. His fingers idly tapping against the armrest come to a halt when faint footsteps reach his ears. The sound draws nearer and closer with each pace and the corner of his mouth tugs upward into a smirk while he waits in anticipation.

“Kitten, shouldn’t you be in bed where I had left you?” Sylus meets your heavy-lidded gaze and registers your appearance as a cashmere blanket wraps around your shoulders and your hair tousled from what seems to be troubled sleep. Despite his question, he beckons you with a gesture and you settle across his lap, your body turning in towards him to nuzzle your face into his neck with your arms coiling around him. He gently shifts your weight closer to him for a more secure hold and lays a sweet kiss on your head once your movement stills.

“You’re more comfy… way more comfy. I prefer this much more.” You hum and return his kiss by brushing your lips against his skin. He can feel you ease into him as he studies your adorable sleepy face and his heart swells with so much love and tenderness for you. He loves it when you seek him out even when you've spent the entire day together and still can't get enough of him.

“Is that so? I suppose I’m more comfortable than a bed, huh?” He strokes your hair, lulling you deeper into your drowsiness and you can only muster a noise of contentment. He wonders if he can emulate the same sense of comfort you provide him when he’s resting his head on your lap. The sweet and intimate sensation of your fingers caressing through his silver locks with the lingering scent of your perfume makes everything seem right in the world even if just brieftly. “You know I can’t work when you’re in my lap like this. I have too many distractions that way. You and the cute way you snore.”

You grunt softly. “I do not snore… do you really want me to leave?” You slowly unravel yourself from him with a small pout on your lower lip, and he softens with the realization that maybe he shouldn’t have teased you when you’re laced with sleep. You feel something warm against your forehead through your bleary eyes, and he can’t have his darling feeling unloved and unwanted by mistake and he intends to remedy that. His hand reaches up and moves your head back where it was moments ago and you are pliant under his touch.

“Now, I didn’t say you had to go anywhere. Stay here with me. I promise you won’t get in the way.” Sylus cooes you gently, his hand smooths along your back and he rests his cheek against your hair as he savors the feeling of having you in his arms. “I love you, sweet kitten. Sleep now. I’ll hold you until you do.” You murmur you love him back and for a few minutes, there’s nothing but silence and the steady rhythm of your breathing as your consciousness begins to drift.

Sylus gazes down at you with a fond and affectionate expression, whispering quiet reassurances that he hopes will reach you in your dreams. He resumes skimming through the paperwork he was doing before, his actions slower and deliberate so as not to wake you. Although his focus has shifted, he enjoys having you here with him like this and he could certainly get used to it.

the supposed "rivals" ...and rafayel lol

[sylusflower]

thinking about sylus “it may not look like it but i am very good at taking care of people”

taking in the twins after they tried killing him, training them, providing them with a home, status, power

constantly updating mephisto, giving him upgrades and cleanings, giving him a perch in his room, sitting down and talking to him like he would a real pet

and then theres you- making sure you arent drowning in work, not alone handling wanderers, indulging you when you want a fight, coming out to festivals and photobooth dates, buying you the plushies you cant get from the clawmachine, making sure youre ok during the time of the month, always intertwining your fingers together when you hold hands, keeping you safe in the n109, buying jewelry, inviting you to galas and auctions, always having your back when you need him o my sweet loverboy

[sylusflower]

Random little idea where Sylus takes MC to a field of flowers. They sit there and suddenly she gently pushes him down in the flowers so she can decorate his head with them. Sylus gets flashbacks from their previous life but nostalgia gets stronger when she says "You know, Sylus...Flowers suit you better than the N109 Zone".

"That's the first time someone said those words to me."
