#dei when everyone gets angry at him for flirting with you: 😁 stay mad

[saltymongoose]

ALR LOOK THAT PREVIOUS ANON WITH THE THERE YOU ARE COMMENT, I JUST HAD AN IDEA???

like, you know how player and the rest of the grunts have their own individual relationships? I feel like deimos is the flirt type to try to get the player to fall for him faster.

LIKE HE’LL MAKE HIS VOICE PURPOSELY DEEP LIKE THAT AND LEAN INTO YOU TO SEE YOU FLUSTERED?? he’s such a fucking degenerate man omg

like just imagine him leaning into your ear and just saying something like “heyyyy~” OR SMTH IDK I JUST NEED THIS MAN HELP?? AND BEFORE YOU EVEN WENT INTO THE GAME YOU EXPRESSED HOW YOU REALLY LIKED HIS VOICE SO HE WAS LIKE “AIGHT BET”

(TW: !Suggestive! Not that bad, but still haha)

Omg you're completely right, he would totally use his voice to try and further your attraction to him. He never forgot that time you said you liked how it sounded after all, and if he's got a clear tool to use to get an edge over the others, it only makes sense to use it, right?

At the beginning of the day, Deimos'll approach you when you're all drowsy from just waking up, too busy making coffee for yourself to pay him much notice. He'll wrap his arms around your waist and lean in close, purring a low and raspy "Good morning~" right into your ear. It's a completely normal thing to say, but that doesn't stop you from gasping and stiffening in his embrace, turning to give him a flustered look as he smiles down at you innocently. Your reactions only embolden him; the cute way you pout and the blush that covers your cheeks as you try to return to what you were doing are just so adorable to him.

(Rest under the cut because my response got kinda long lol)

And the others can only seethe from the sidelines as he leans closer to you on missions, pulling you flush to his side to give you compliments and flirt with you. He always keeps his tone rather low here too, just enough to make it seem like a private conversation but also "unintentionally" loud enough for the others to hear just what flustered you. A particularly notable time is when he'd been on the tail-end of a conversation with you, slowing his pace and looking at you with an odd expression. You raised a brow, about to ask why he was stopping when he took a few steps closer to you, reaching out to place his hands on your shoulders, squeezing slightly before giving you another once-over and tsking. "You're feeling tense," he said as he leaned even closer, the almost disapproving look on his face switching to a salacious grin, "I can help you relax later, if ya want." You paused, eyes widening as heat crept up your face and painted you a shade of red (one he definitely wouldn't mind seeing on you again. Especially if it was because of him.)

"Deimos," you scolded weakly, too shocked by his blatant "offer" to really know what to say. He couldn't hide his warm laugh at the sight of your blush, though, and he pulled you into another tight hug, nuzzling into you as purrs began to rumble in his chest. (The others bristled at the brief look of triumph he sent them from over your shoulder, his smile switching to something more mocking for a brief second before he focused wholly on you again, captivated by you and your presence once more.)

The others are all very jealous of him, but there's nothing that they can do. Deimos is nothing if not opportunistic when it comes to this, and he's made it clear that he has no shame whatsoever in using your reaction to his voice to his advantage. It fills him with a sense of genuine happiness to see you get so flustered at something that's unique to him only; it's something that he knows makes him stick out from the others and if you love the way he sounds so much, he'll let you hear him as much as you like. He'd talk to you until his throat went raw and his voice grew too hoarse to use if that's what you wanted (he'd always been willing to do anything for you anyway and it's a small price to pay for your attention). It'll only serve to further your relationship with him, no matter how angry it makes the others. I mean, it's not his fault that they don't have the same effect on you.
