ᴘᴀɪʀɪɴɢ: phoenix x valorant agent male reader

ꜱᴜᴍᴍᴀʀʏ: spending time apart is never acceptable to him.

mailmango: I wanna see Phoenix not letting reader out of his cuddles after a particularly long time apart (two days as opposed to one) because that his water boyfie

ᴡᴏʀᴅ ᴄᴏᴜɴᴛ: 908

ᴡᴀʀɴɪɴɢꜱ: for me none, lmk

☾⋆☆⋆☽

"Shaanxi's mayor called and asked for help, so seeing as it's Sage's home turf, she's leading the mission. She's your captain, aye, Phoenix?" Brimstone's eyes are pointed heavily on Phoenix, almost like he's pinning the man down with a look.

Phoenix takes it all in stride, despite how threatening it seems to be, "No need to question me, boss man. I got it!"

Brimstone then turns to you, his eyes softening substantially. "On the other hand, we got reports from Raze that Brazil's bay state is in a bit of a pinch. Lotta water 'round for you to play around with, Downpour."

Phoenix immediately objects, stepping between you two and covering line of sight with a raised finger. "Hold on, Brim, we not goin' together?"

The commander sighs in turn, "We've been over this, Phoenix. You two don't exactly go well together–"

"We go amazing together."

"Fire and water, Phoenix. You create something, he'll," He points his hand at you like you're suddenly a culprit, even if you are in this hypothetical situation, "just smother it."

"I–"

"It's final!"

☾⋆☆⋆☽

He should've argued harder, Phoenix thinks while he's on the mission. Even afterwards, when the agents take a little break before returning home, he's regretful. Shaanxi's beautiful and all: nice weather, respectful people–if a bit amazed by his foreigness–lotta fun with a local (Sage) as your tour guide.

Phoenix never has his way when the two of you are split. The logic is sound and clear, and everyone in the team agrees fire and water don't mix. Jett or Gecko might argue for chemistry reasons, but it never helps. None of it will ever stop him from trying, anyway.

When Phoenix steps back into HQ, he's never been happier before (even if he says that every time).

Cypher often says the Radiants' powers match them. Jett's cool and a lover of speed, so wind fits great for her. Sage is calm and caring, and so is her healing power.

Phoenix is definitely a fire. He's always flickering with excitement. He can't stay idle, he's always rushing to grow larger in some way or other. You know how flames cling and spread to anything flammable near them? That's you.

Even if you're water, he clings to you like a flame engulfing you in its warmth. You're calmer on the other end, but you still rest an arm over the small of his back and cradle the back of his head.

He's got his head in the crook of your neck, like he's trying to inhale your very being to store you in the forefront of his mind.

Besides the fact it's cute, it tickles...

"Phen," You chuckle, both from the tickling and the situation. "it's been two days."

"That is not an okay amount of time!" Phoenix pulls away, sitting up on your laugh to pound your chest harmlessly. "Seriously, it's like you don't even love me."

You huff, sitting up to meet his eye. "You don't mean that."

He wants to say he does, to tease you, to play, but he can't, not to you. "No, I don't." He says, utterly defeated.

"Good." You lean closer to steal a quick kiss. Tender and soft, and Phoenix would usually want more, but there are always other ways of closeness.

He collapses against you, forcing you back flush onto the bed to press himself against you. When every part of him is against a part of yours, legs tangled, arms around your neck, side of his face against yours, he sighs like he's complete. "I missed youuu!"

"I know." You say, and though you might've rolled your eyes at the repetition, you don't. Instead, you place your hand on his cheek and smooth your thumb over his cheekbone.

He positively melts into the touch with a blatant groan. "Say you miss me."

"I missed you." You reply easily.

"Say it like you mean it." He demands with a pout, and how could you deny him?

"I missed you."

"Aaaah...you're my boyfriend!" Phoenix drawls, like he's drunk, like you're fresh into the relationship in your honeymoon phase. "My one! Loml!"

"Loml?"

He clicks his tongue disappointedly. He sets his eyes on you with a deadpan glare. "LOML, like love of my life, you know."

"Ahhhh." So that's what that means.

Phoenix pats your cheek playfully for it. "No way you've been seein' LOML, LOML, this my boyfie, the LOML, on my insta stories that you always like n' never questioned it."

"I kinda learned to ignore it, I don't know." You answer truthfully.

"You stupid, stupid man." He teases in that silly little accent of his, stewpid. You have to hold in your laugh to tease him next.

"Heyy!" You all but pout at him.

"I'm sorry," As expected, he falls for it instantly, surging forward to press apologetic little kisses to your face, muttering a new "I'm sorry," with each one.

"Aw, you're okay, big man." You finally let go of your laugh and redirect his kisses to your lips. "C'mere."

They say water smothers fire, but whenever you're around, Phoenix is more motivated than if he were anywhere else in the world. He's more excited than when he's on stage, more focused than when he's on mission, happier than he's ever been. You can say the same thing, that he's the one to turn your lazy rivers into rapid streams.

Neither of you would have it any other way.

hi i absolutely adore your cypher fics, can i request a nsfw piece with voice kink? can never get enough of that sexy accent I swear

Yes. Definitely. ABSOLUTELY. (And thank you!!)

Listen to Me (Cypher x F!Reader)

Summary: Your boyfriend might be away on a mission, but he always has time to call when you need him ;)

Pairing: Cypher x F!Reader

Rating: Explicit

Word Count: 1062

Warnings: sexual fantasy, female masturbation, vaginal fingering, slight breeding kink

Notes: This man’s voice does truly shameful things to me

Being lonely and horny at the same time was not a good combination.

You were all alone in your room late that night, hopelessly missing your boyfriend, who was currently away on a mission in Brazil. You’d barely gotten to talk to him all day, and even though it was late now, he could still very well be busy. You wished you could call him, just hear his voice, but you didn’t want to catch him in the middle of a firefight, or worse.

Still, waiting was torturous. Luckily, you knew the perfect way to ease the pain a little.

You reached under your covers, hand wandering down your body towards your panties. Slowly, you began to circle your clit through the fabric, biting your lip as you teased yourself. What scenario would you conjure up now…

Suddenly, a soft click and a familiar voice made you freeze.

“Touching yourself, dirty girl?”

You let out a shaky breath, joy flooding your senses. You turned towards the mini-camera on your bedside table, which Cypher had recently attached for you to speak with him like this. “Hi, baby,” you said with a giggle. “I missed you.”

He chuckled. “I missed you too, sweetheart. But I have to say, I’m hurt”—he feigned a pouty tone—“that you didn’t call me before doing this.”

You blushed. “I-I know, I just didn’t wanna bother you. I thought maybe you were busy—”

“Excuses, excuses,” he teased. “I’m not busy anymore. By all means, my dear… keep going.”

The sultry note to his voice sparked warmth between your legs, and you spread your thighs apart, more than ready to oblige. “O-Okay,” you murmured, slipping your panties down to your ankles.

“Turn towards me.”

Your heart fluttered, and you obeyed, shifting on the bed so the camera had a straight shot at your already-dripping pussy. You looked away slightly, smiling nervously; even though he wasn’t there in person, even though he’d seen you like this many times, you still couldn’t help getting shy.

Cypher hummed appreciatively, drawing it out for a long moment. “Beautiful,” he marveled. “I wish I could have that right now—all of it.”

You moaned softly, moving your fingers back towards your center. Oh, how you wished you could have him here. Using two fingers, you set to work rubbing your clit, thrusting lightly as you did so.

“Pretty girl,” Cypher purred, no doubt watching you intently. “So wet for me. Do you need me, sokar?”

You moaned again, louder this time. How could you not need him? “Yes,” you answered breathlessly.

“What is it you need, my love?” he cooed. “Tell me. Use that pretty mouth.”

“I-I need—” You gasped, jerking at the pleasure you were bringing yourself. “I need you. Everything. Y-Your—your hands, your tongue, your—”

“Cock?” he finished for you, sounding deviously delighted.

You nodded feverishly, stroking faster. “Y-Yes.”

He made a thoughtful hum. “You want me inside you, sweetheart?” he crooned. “You want me to tear you open with my cock? Fuck you until you forget your name?”

You let out a pitiful cry at that, your body overheating with need. “Yes,” you whimpered, fingers trailing lower as you felt for your slit.

Cypher half-growled, half-chuckled. “Do you want me to tell you what I would do to you, my darling?”

Fuck, he knew exactly what you needed. He really did know you so well. “Yes,” you pleaded, wetting your fingertips with your slick. “Yes, please.”

His response was blessedly quick. “I would take you back to your room,” he began, his voice low, “and rip those cute little clothes off of you. Then I’d bend you over your desk.”

You plunged both fingers inside you at once, whining as they penetrated you. So good. More. You needed more.

“I’d fuck you with my fingers first,” he continued, purring. “My gloves still on. I want you to feel every ridge, every cold piece of metal.”

You moaned loudly at his words. Fuck, you hadn’t expected that. You’d never thought about him wearing his gloves like that, but now, you’d do anything to feel that sensation.

“Then, when you’re soaked enough for me, I’ll let you have my cock,” he went on, growing breathless with lust. “I want to hold you down and pull your hair while I fuck your tight little cunt.”

You let out a shrill whimper, desperately pumping your fingers in and out of you. God, if only it was his cock.

“I want to hear every sweet sound you make,” he breathed. “I want to hear you scream and beg for me, hear those pretty noises your cunt makes when it's sucking my cock.”

You mewled, rising up onto your knees to spear yourself onto your fingers. You wanted to fuck him. You wanted him so bad; the need in his voice was killing you. “Please,” you begged. “Need you. Need you.”

Cypher made a soft moan of his own. Was he pleasuring himself too, wherever he was? You hoped he was. “Sokar,” he grunted, breathing a little harder. “I want you crying my name. I want you taking all of me, creaming around me when I pump you full of cum.”

Oh, God, it was too much. You were right there on the edge. “A-Amir,” you whined, using your thumb to rub at your clit. “Fuck, please. Make me cum. Make me cum.”

Cypher groaned. You could faintly hear him working himself, and it only made you more desperate. “Yes, good girl, cum for me.”

You made a strangled noise as you hurtled towards your peak. “Please—please—”

“Yes, that’s it, kitten, just like that—”

You cried out brokenly as your orgasm tore through you, juices gushing down your fingers and staining the sheets beneath you. You heard Cypher gasp and groan, and you knew he had finished, too. As you recovered, falling back onto your pillows, you felt that warm, fuzzy feeling settling over you, and you turned onto your side, smiling at the mini camera like a schoolgirl with a crush.

“Thank you,” you said, stroking the side of it as if he could feel you through it. Your heart tightened in your chest. “Fuck. I miss you so much.”

Cypher sighed. “Not more than I miss you,” he murmured. “I can’t wait to get back to you.” He chuckled slyly. “We have—much to discuss, after all.”

#thanks for the request!#cypher #cypher x reader #valorant #cypher valorant

Multiple ways of express love (Based on Valorant's Agents Countries)

It is Valentines Day After All!

Hey hey hey! Here I came with one of that big posts for celebrating the day of love. Actually... For some people are the day of love. In Brazil, we celebrate the Valentines Day in June 12. Someone change the date for moving economy in the month. In other countries, the date changes too for several reasons. I find this so interest! I love to see different cultures meeting.

Fortunately, my favorite game of the time have this aspect. Different people from divers countries together! Oh, so many possibilities!

So, for celebrating all ways of love, i compiled some forms of saying "I love you" in Valorant's Agents native languages.

Chibi Agents for your soul

I made an effort to go beyond the google translator. So i research for videos and sites where i could learn something more. I tried to add some compliments, trivia and, of course, my own comments.

Knowing that, i'm just showing some perspective that i found on internet. If i said anything that doesn't match with reality, feel free to correct me ok? I will add the links where i get most of things :D

Also, i really suggest you to check out the sites and videos. I didn't add everything that is there and somethings are really interesting.

Ok ok, let's talk about love baby!

Index (In case you just want to skip it)

Astra - Twi/Akan and Ga

Breach - Swedish

Cypher - Moroccan Arabic (Darija) and Arabic

Yoru - Japanese

Chamber - French

Reyna - Spanish

Raze - Portuguese

Killjoy - Germany

Sova - Russian

Phoenix - Scottish Gaelic

Jett - Korean

Neon - Tagalog

Sage - Chinese

Kay/O and Omen - ???

❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜

Astra - Twi/Akan

Ghana is a country where more than 80 languages are spoken. This means that isn't easy discover which one Astra uses. Besides that, Astra probably knows more than one language. Akan is the most popular, but it have many dialects. I put Twi here for being the most knowed and... Well, it was the video that i found

I love you = Me dɔ wo (me doo wo)

I miss you = M'afe wo

If you want to use a "too much" on the phrase, you just add "paa" at the end. So, it will be "me dɔ wo paa" and "m'afe wo paa"

My love = Medɔfo (medoofo) (or) Medɔ (Medoo)

Queen = ɔhemaa (Oohemaa)

King = ɔhene (Oohene)

After knowing this, i remembered of the famous Astra's "Chale". I found that is a Ga slang. So... I go research again

(Also, "Chale" means friend and i can't stand with Astra's romantic fics where the authors use "Chale" for Astra refers to her significant others. I can't stop thinking that she is putting them on friendzone)

This one was hard to find exactly what i wanted. I downloaded a book for have sure that one site that i was checking was right

You are beautiful = Nye yɛ fɛo (Nye ye feo)

I love you = Misumoɔ nye (Misumoo nye)

I love thou = Misumɔ bo (Misumoo bo)

I love you very much = Misumoɔ nye naakpa (Misumoo nye naakpa)

I found an article about Same-Sex Love and Female Masculinity in Postcolonial Ghana. You must pay for read the whole article, but the abstract has an information about how Ghanaian demonstrate interesting in a discreet way. They scratched the palm of the potential partner with their right index finger. So, Astra fic writers, that's for you!

❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜

Breach - Swedish

Being honest, this is one of my favorites to speak. I don't remember if Breach has Swedish voice lines, but here we are.

The writing is from this site and from this other site. This last site has some hot expressions that make me want to do a part 2 of this post with +18 phrases. For pronunciation, this video and this other video.

I love you = Jag älskar dig (yah-g el-scar d-eh)

I'm crazy about you = Jag är galen i dig (yah-g er galen i d-en)

I miss you = Jag saknar dig (yah-g sak-nar d-eh)

I want you = Jag vill ha dig (yah-g vill ha d-eh)

Sweetheart = Hjärtanskär (means literally heart's love)

(A)Kiss = puss (peck) and kyss (with tongue)

(I just thought it is cool that Swedish have a word for kissing with tongue. This would be useful in other languages)

❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜

Cypher - Moroccan Arabic (Darija) and Arabic

In Morocco, the official languages are Arabic and Tamazight. Most of people speak Darija, the Moroccan Arabic. It is a multilanguage culture. So, if you don't want to risk with Arabic when dealing with Cypher, you can use English, French or Spanish. I'm pretty sure he knows all of them. Just a feeling.

(The Darija language is different from Classic or Modern Arabic, and other Arabic speakers may find it difficult to understand. It variable depend which side of Morocco it is spoken; The North region isn't alike the rest of the country. I made the option of putting Classic Arabic and Darija here)

Darija (Almost everything from this video and this site, but i get some help for other videos too. This one and This one)

I love you = كنبغيك ( I don't have any idea how these sounds works. I didn't even pass of the basics of Arabic Duolingo. The girl on the video put the transliteration like "Kanbghik", but i heard something like "Kanbahik". Sorry friends, i know i'm a disappointment ;-; )

Also, is important to remember that the Arabic writing system works to the right from the left. Watch out if you are using this on fics.

I miss you = توحشتك (Twahhachtk)

(If you want to use a "so much" in these phrases, just add a بزاف (bzaf) at the end. So it would be كنبغيك بزاف (Kanbahik bzaf) and بزاف توحشتك (Twahhachtk bzaf) (For some reason, this one is writing in the wrong order. Thx Tumblr, always being so helpful.)

I adore you = كنعشقك (Kanachk)

I'm crazy about you = كنحماك عليك (Kanhamak elik)

I'm dying for you = كنموت عليك (Kanmot elik) (So dramatic, so Cypher, i loved this one)

My beauty (specifically men to women) = Zyonat dyali (Sorry i didn't found the words she uses on the video on internet ;-;)

Arabic

So, Arabic has REALLY a lot of dialects. I saw a video with the Palestinian dialect and i get like "ummm, should i use it?". End up it helped me with the site that i found.

I love you = أحبك (Uhibbuk)

I miss you = وحشتني (Wahashtini)

My love = حبيبي (Habeebi) (if the person who you are talking is a man) حبيبتي (Habeebti) (for female)

One of the things that the lady of the video said is that in Arabic you can call persons by body parts as a accomplishment. So, i put here the most relevant one when is about Cypher.

My eyes = عيوني (Enyooni)

Cypher has eyes everywhere, is his mark. So his eyes is a big thing for him. Imagine how important someone must be for him calling they as عيون عيوني (Enyoon Enyooni) (Eyes of my eyes) or نورعيوني (Nour enyooni) (Light of my eyes) Wow, really intense!

Yoru - Japanese

You already noticed that i avoided showing just "i like you" as a sentence. It's a day for being intense okay? But it is almost impossible to explain how to say "i love you" in Japanese without using the three forms. So, for convenience, i will use "i like you", just this time!

This video for a better explanation and this site for love expressions. And a site with a Japanese dictionary.

I like you = 好きです (Suki desu) (in a formal way)

I really like you = 大好きです (Daisuki desu)

I love you = 愛してる (Aishiteru)

So, personally, i think that the three forms are legit love expressions, but in different ways. I will example this with ⭐ Animes ⭐

In Ore Monogatari (My favorite shoujo anime, great for Valentine's day) Takeo constantly says "Sukida!" (The informal way of Sukidesu) when he his talking about his girlfriend, Yamato. The subtitles rarely translate the sentence for "i like her" because it wouldn't make sense considering his feelings for her. It is always "i love her".

In One Piece, when Bellemere was facing certain death against Arlong, she turned to Nami and Nojiko and said with a smile "Daisuki". This scene really hits hard. It's a mother sacrificing herself for her daughters. How could anyone translate "Daisuki" for "i really like you"?

In Naruto Shippuden, when Itachi released the Edo Tensei no Jutsu, he was dying again and chooses to say somethings for Sasuke (the scene that make all the simps cry). They do the forehead touch, and, looking deep at Sasuke's eyes, Itachi says "Ore wa Omau zutto aishiteru". "I will always love you". It's really intense.

So, the moral of the story is that for a Japanese say Aishiteru, they must die first.

I miss you = 寂しい (Sabishii/Samishii) (Literally, i’m lonely) (From this site)

You’re beautiful = きれいです (Kirei desu) (More usual with women)

You’re cute = かわいいです (Kawaii desu) (Just imagine Yoru saying this. Just imagine.)

You’re handsome/cool = かっこいいです (Kakkoii desu) (Ok, he must really likes this one)

If you want to use the informal way, you can suppress the “desu” or maybe change for “da”. And, if you want to say something like “You’re really beautiful/cute/handsome” you can add “本当に” (hontoni) in the beginning of the phrase. It will be something like “本当にきれいだ” (Hontoni kirei da) (“You’re really beautiful”, informal way) (I use this video for accomplishments)

About nicknames, they do exists in Japanese. It’s common to be some inside joke between the persons (Like, Midoriya calling Bakugou as Kacchan). But i never heard anything especially for couples like “sweetheart” or “darling”. Close persons usually call each other by their first name and add a “san” (for both, men and women), “chan” (usually for women) or a “kun” (usually for men).

Fun fact: In Japanese dub, Yoru calls Skye “Flower girl”, as the English dub. In my heart, it would be cooler if he calls her as “花ちゃん” (Hana-chan). Means “Flower” but in a cute way.

Chamber - French

Reyna - Spanish

Raze - Portuguese

Chamber, Reyna and Raze native languages are from Romance (ooooown) Language Family. So they are similar at some point, especially Portuguese and Spanish. This means i feel a little bit more confidence for talking about these three. Happily, i also have a friend who speaks French and my dad knows Spanish well, so it´s a all win!

(Yes, i made an Excel Chart just for this)

Now, time for curiosities!

Chamber

I heard once that Je t'adore is like Aishiteru, while Je t'aime is Daisuki. What a misunderstood...

But you can use too. Is also a way of express feelings.

However, you know what's really intense in French? The way of saying I miss you.

"Tu me manques" have a closest translation for something like "you are missing from me". Is a way of saying that you're a part of me.

So adorable!

Also, yes, i know that the writing of "Mon coeur" is wrong. The correct is "Mon cœur"

Also² I just googled how is "My Beauty" in French and gave to my friend correct everything. She said that she learned that for women, in French, we use "Jolie" and for men is "Beau". She explained to me that "Ma beauté" would be closer translated as "My own Beauty". This fits so much with Chamber, who definitely is married to himself, that i just let this way for the meme.

Reyna

The words between parenthesis, in Spanish and Portuguese, aren't very common to use in normal phrases, but they are correct if you want to add. "Yo" and "Eu" means "I" and "Mi" and "Meu" means "My".

If you want to add the too much in the phrases, you put at the end "mucho" for Spanish and "muito" for Portuguese. Ex.: "Te quiero mucho" and "Te amo muito"

"Te amo" as "I love you" do exist in Spanish. But, for expressing casually "I love you" (such as saying bye to beloved ones or just to saying) we use "Te quiero" or "Te necesito" (Just like the Shakira's song)

You probably know the nicknames that Reyna uses, like "corazón" or "cariño". They are common ways of treating especial persons in a cute way.

Buuuut, they can be very mocking too, depending of the context and the tone.

Also, "Cariño" exists in Portuguese as "Carinho". Is hard to translate the whole concept of these words. We can say is a physical and emotional expression to show affection.

Oh yeah, " Mi linda" is for women, "Mi bonito" is for men. You can also use "Hermosa"(women) or "Hermoso"(men) for accomplishment someone.

Ex.: Tu és muy hermosa/hermoso/linda/bonito (You're very beautiful)

Raze

Ok, i must admit, French sounds smooth and romantic. Spanish is kinda hot (Really, take one day for hearing Yoru's voice lines in Espanõl Latino, he sounds like he is flirting with everyone, even the spike. It is delicious to hear)

And Portuguese is the cousin that left.

Don't get me wrong, i love my native language. But, hell, why we are so complicated?

Let me explain.

We use "Te amo" in a common way. We are so used to say this that is pretty much "ok" in any situation. There are people who doesn't say much, but, in the moment they feel comfortable, is normal to say to significant others.

This means the unusual thing is not saying "Te amo". If your partner doesn't say it, even your both love language isn't words of affirmation, something will be missing.

"Te adoro" is more common between friends, family or frenemies. It all depends of the context.

"Te quero" can be a romantic expression, but in a specific context. If you say this out of the blue, will sound kind of sexual.

"Preciso de você" also can be romantic. However, is more used to hear this from our mothers asking to do something for hers. Again, depends of the context.

"Eu necessito de você" do exist, like a similar expression with Spanish. But, if you say it, will sound a little bit needy.

I think that for all this need of context in the Portuguese language that we use big speeches and texts (famous textão) for express our love and care.

Nicknames in Brazil are very common too and so creative. We mixed words, languages and inside jokes for making an unique way of call our beloved ones. So, if you want to write some fic were Raze uses nicknames, use your imagination and it will be beautiful.

Raze must use so much the word "Xodó". It is a affectional way of express that you really like something.

Also, i feel a little bit sad 'cause her voice actress in English isn't Brazilian. She lost her true accent. And, believe in me when i say that Raze saying "Linda" in her Baiana's accent is one of the most pleasing things to hear.

❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜

Killjoy - Germany

Raze's girlfriend COF COF COF

Anyway, i search the phrases on this site. For pronunciation i used this video and this other video (It is very funny)

I love you = Ich liebe dich

When you fell really confortable with someone (don't have exactly translation) = Ich fühle mich wohl bei dir

I'm happy that you exists = Ich bin froh, dass es dich gibt

You are God to me (pretty much intense than I adore you) = Ich vergöttere dich

You are pretty = Du bist hübsch

I miss you = Ich vermisse dich

You give meaning to my life = Du gibst meinem leben einen sinn

Sweetheart = Schatz (Literally treasure)

And some things for Nanobomb, my beloved S2

Opposites attract = Gegensätze ziehen sich an

Girlfriend or female Friend = Freundin (That thing that Riot intentionally add just for confusing us)

Sova - Russian

Especial thanks to Duolingo for my basic cyrillic acknowledgment.

I used this site and this site for copying the cyrillic letters (Duolingo didn't teach me everything yet) and this video for pronunciation.

I love you = Я тебя люблю (Ya tyebya lyublyu)

You can suppress the Я and change the order if you want, like Я люблю тебя. And have many variables for this phrase. Russian is cool!

Also, i tried to find in the official Russian dub if Sova really says "I love you all" but i didn't find. So maybe it's a urban legend, maybe i just didn't find. Russian speakers, i let this one for you.

I adore you = Я тебя обожаю (Ya tyebya obozhayu)

You’re better than anyone else in the world = Ты - лучше всех на свете (ty - lutshe vsyeh na svyete)

Little Bunny (what? He is THE HUNTER but still likes animals) = Зайчик (Zaychik) for men and Зайка (Zayka) for women.

My soul = Душа моя (Dooshah maya) (This one is more common in classic literature. As i have my Headcanon that Sova likes these things, it's fits well)

❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜

Phoenix - Scottish Gaelic

Okay, you may already noticed that i didn’t add Viper, Brimstone and Skye. Well, i think i told you many ways of express love in their languages. Like, English, you know. Phoenix would be the same thing, just speaking everything with a British accent. However, I saw a headcannon where Phoenix is part Scottish. (Person who made this Headcanon, you’re awesome!) And i get like “Why not?”

Also, Scottish Gaelic is a language near of death. So, let’s try to save a part of a language today! I used this site with pronunciation guide and this other site for more words (with a cool music for bonus).

(I Had to hold myself for not add Irish Gaelic too giving a excuse like "hey, what if Skye is part Irish?")

I love you = Tha gaol agam ort (Ha g-iil ack-am orsht)

I miss you = Tha mi gad ionndrainn (HA mee gahd EEN in drin)

My love = Mo ghraidh (Mo ghry) or in a more intense way Mo ghaol (Mo gh-ill)

My Sweetheart = Mo leannan (Mo len-ann)

You are beautiful = Tha thu bòidheach (Ha oo boy-och)

And a little gaelic proverb just for get into the mood from this site.

Thig crìoch air an t-saoghal, ach mairidh gaol is ceòl.

Which means (in a poetic way): The world will end, but love and music will endure.

❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜

Jett - Korean

She is American Korean? Shanon (Her voice actress) says yes. She just speaks Korean in cinematics? Yes. I’m still putting Korean here? Yes!

I used this video for pronunciation. And this site and this other site for more expressions.

I love you = 사랑해요 (saranghaeyo)

As in the Japanese case, saying this is a big thing. If you ever saw any Dorama, you must know how hard it is for the couple to say this to each other. By the way, there is one phrase used for saying “I love you” at the Japanese video which is kind of different. “月が綺麗ですね” (Tsuki ga kirei desu ne) (Literally “the moon is beautiful”). I first saw this phrase in a Dorama, “Romance is a Bonus book” (Not so good for Valentine's day at the first episodes). This was the moment where the female protagonist “noticed” that Lee Jong-suk (The main reason why i saw that) loved her. I won’t give any spoilers but i got very angry at this scene.

I miss you = 보고 싶어 (bogo sipeo)

I’m crazy about you = 너에게 반했어 (neoege banhaesseo)

You’re handsome = 잘 생겼어요 (jal saenggyeosseoyo)

You’re pretty = 예뻐요 (yeppeoyo)

(I’m not as familiar with Korean as i am with Japanese, so i can’t say for sure if Jett calls Phoenix as “pretty boy” in Korean dub. I KNOW I AM A DISAPPOINTMENT OKAY??)

Baby = 자기 (Jagi)

Honey = 여보 (yeobo)

Kiss = 뽀뽀 (ppoppo) (quick peck) and 키스 (kiseu) (not sure if the tongue is involved in this case)

A hundred hearts would be too few to carry all my love for you = 백 개의 심장도 너를 향한 내 모든 사랑을 담기에는 너무 모자랄거야 (baek gaeui simjangdo neoreul hyanghan nae modeun sarangeul damgieneun neomu mojaralgeoya.)

(You may have noticed that i love a little drama right?)

❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜

Neon - Tagalog

The Philippines also has tons of dialects. I will just put Tagalog because that’s what Valorant Brazil told me that was cannon.

I'm sure this video will warm your heart. This site for more phrases, this video for pronunciation and this other video because it's funny.

I love you = Mahal Kita

I love you very much = Mahal na mahal kita

I adore you = Sinasamaba kita/ hinahangaan kita

I miss you = Miss na Kita (From this site)

I’m not complete without you = Kulang ako kung wala ka

You’re amazing = Ang galíng mo (She says this to her mother… I MEAN SAGE!)

You’re beautiful = Maganda ka

Baby = Beh (From this site)

In the funny video, it is explained that the traditional Filipino Cortege is “Harana”, a serenade. Maybe this won’t happen for real, but i can stop thinking about Neon singing “ENTERTAIN ME GIRL” at Jett’s door in the middle of the night with the help of Raze, Phoenix and Breach. And Sage screaming with her because “NEON! IT’S 3AM! GO TO BED!”

❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜

Sage - Chinese

I made the option of putting Chinese for Sage because is kinda of a sure that she speaks it. But China have tons of languages (+100 according to Ethnologue ). It would be very cool if she speaks another dialect, like Astra.

The video for this one is on Portuguese so... Extra points for me.

I love you = 我爱你 (wǒ ài nǐ)

The expression exists but it is so rare to hear in any case that it really must be a western fanfic for Sage saying it to anyone.

I miss you = 我想你 (Wǒ xiǎng nǐ) (This one is from this video)

Baby, precious = 宝贝 (bǎo bèi)

No, but this one is freaking amazing since i already know that bǎo bun is that food from Kung Fu Panda. And when i learned this, that short animation from Pixar, Bao made the whole sense. Totally mind blowing.

Context is so important

I love you = 520 (wu èr líng)

This one is amazing smart. In Chinese, the pronunciation of 520 is similar to 我爱你, so they use this in texts for express love in a discreet way. Also, March 20 is one of the "Valentine's Day" on China.

❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜❛ ━━━━━━･❪ ❁ ❫ ･━━━━━━ ❜

Kay/O and Omen - ???

We don't know where these two are from, so i feel totally free to use my fanfic writer imagination.

Kay/O is a robot, so in his programming he must have a binary code. Then, he can express himself with zeros and ones. So, he use this:

00101000 01111000 10110010 00101011 01111001 10110010 00101101 00110001 00101001 10110011 00111101 01111000 10110010 01111001 10110011

If you decode this binary code, you will have this equation:

(x²+y²-1)³=x²y³

And, if you solve this equation in a graph, you will have this form:

From this video

And for Omen, why not morse code?

I LV U = .. ._.. ..._ .._

Yeah yeah, aggressively nerdy.

So, i showed this to my friend (whose speaks French btw) and she was like "Ahw... This is cute but... Why they just don't buy flowers?"

And i get like "... Damn you smart girl"

As you can see, she is the smart one between us, i'm the one who spend unnecessarily energy.

But, anyway, the point is, exists tons of ways to express love beyond words. Celebrate today with smiles, hugs, kisses, gifts, listening or doing something for someone you love. Don't matter how, just show love at your own way! It is good to receive and even better to give.

That's all.

See ya! s2
