@lachrymosestorm whispered: โ i made a blanket fort, just for us.ย โ // Levi
ยปยป โโโโโโเฎเนโเนเฎ โโโโโโ ยซยซ ษชแด แดกแด๊ฑ สแดษดแด๊ฑแดสส sweet, how thoughtful she was ... he never imagined that someone would actually seem to enjoy hanging out with him. he always assumed that nobody would like or appreciate his company, that the rest of the world just saw him as no more than a waste of space, unworthy of love or attention. then he met dez ... someone who gave him a bit of LIGHT in his world, and things to look forward to. he had already learned a few things about her, but learning about how exquisite her blanket fort making skills were ... he fell for her even harder. he knew it was a belphie thought to think, but seeing all those blankets folded over the cushions and ottomans, the ruri-chan blanket he let her borrow because he thought so highly of her draped over the top ... that completed the fort, and solidified it as nothing more than a masterpiece in his mind.
โ ... so ... do we, uh ... go in, or ... ? โ he shyly rocked on his heels a couple times before dropping to his knees and crawling into the fort. and gods, was it nice ... their own little PARADISE for just the two of them to share, no one else ...

@lachrymosestorm whispered: "Good boy" // Levi
ยปยป โโโโโโเฎเนโเนเฎ โโโโโโ ยซยซ แดสแดสแด แดกแด๊ฑ ๊ฑแดแดแดแดสษชษดษข about those two words being directed at him that made his body turn to the consistency of putty, everything else around him completely forgotten as his full attention was on the one person he loved more than anything else in all three worlds. something told him she was saying it to TEASE him, but the effects of the words were much deeper than that, making him shiver and open up his body that quickly became hers for the taking. it made him want her to keep touching him, to keep telling him how good he was, how good of a job he was doing.
โ mm ... d-dez ... โ he whimpered out, resting his head against her chest. he was acutely aware of how her breasts were acting as pillows to keep his head at a high angle, and he shivered as he felt that familiar aching THROB between his legs. one of his hands was quick to reach for his inner thigh in an attempt to soothe the sensations, but it only added to it, making him bite down on his lip and whine out.

ยปยป โโโโโโเฎเนโเนเฎ โโโโโโ ยซยซ โ แด-แดส, แดส, สแดสแดสษชแด got it for me. i helped the twins out with a little project last week, so this is something he got me in return ... โ while levi wasn't the biggest fan of onesies, he so loved the little azuki-tan design that was splattered all over it. in fact, he wondered where belphie even managed to find a onesie with this kind of design on it. while ruri-chan merch wasn't necessarily RARE in the devildom, things like outfits and costumes were much easier to obtain in the human world. he still was meaning to ask his brother where in the three worlds he could have found this ...
โ b-but, um ... โ he swallowed against the lump he could feel forming in his throat, blinking away shyly as his cheeks were quick to turn rosy. โ h-he managed to fall asleep next to me earlier this week, and, well ... i-i found that it's pretty good for CUDDLING, so, um ... i-if you wanted to try it ... โ

@lachrymosestorm whispered: โฒ // Levi 11 โ sneaking up behind them and blowing a raspberry on their neck
ยปยป โโโโโโเฎเนโเนเฎ โโโโโโ ยซยซ สแด แดกแดษดแดแดแด
๊ฑแด desperately to be annoyed at dez in the same way that he'd be annoyed if his brothers were to do the same thing. he wanted to work up the courage to ban her from his room, or to potentially retaliate from her teasing him like that. but he just couldn't find the courage to do any of that ; she was different than his brothers, someone who filled in that otaku-shaped hole in the middle of his chest that nobody he already knew could. so when she blew a raspberry on the back of his neck, obviously SNEAKING up on him from behind to play a prank on him, making him shriek and squeal with laughter and jump at least three feet in the air, all he could do was cover his face with the back of his hand, squirming awkwardly, his face a dark red. โ w-warn me before you do something like that ... ! โ

@lachrymosestorm whispered: ๐ค + Dez and Levi
Who cooks meals for the other? โ dez. levi isn't very well-versed in the world of cooking or baking so he usually lets dez take care of the food-related things.
Who spams the other with memes? โ L E V I. this man is the MEME KING if you've ever seen one!!! he has memes for every single mood and every single possible situation that could arise and they usually land PERFECTLY. hell even the word spam doesn't come up to what he does with dez lmao
Who likes to tidy around the house? โ dez. levi usually tidies up some corners of his room, especially the parts of his rare figurines, but dez is more geared towards the rest of the house
Who likes to play pranks on the other? โ neither seem like the 'pranky' type, but if they are to pull pranks on the other, they'll likely team up with some brother.
Who asked the other to move in with them? โ levi, since dez has to stay at the hol during the exchange program
Who is in charge of the music during a car ride? โ probably levi lol. he blasts his favorite anime and game soundtracks and sings at the top of his lungs shamelessly. just know that levi openly singing his favorite songs, which is something he's generally shy about doing in front of others, with you is a love language alone <3
Who is more likely to tickle the other mercilessly? โ definitely dez!! levi is super shy about dishing out tickles, even if the other person deserves it, but god he is way too ticklish and cute for dez to resist so sometimes she can't help herself from teasing him with it ๐ญ
Who needs to hold the other during scary movies? โ i'm thinking dez lol. levi isn't as easily phased as mammon when it comes to horror, and he has experience playing a lot of horror games, but movies are a completely new experience to him. i mean we've all seen the card of him and mammon and satan watching a horror movie?? he's absolutely eaten alive by some jump scares kjsfhds
Who has to help the other when it comes to technology? โ levi. ... do i need to explain this one lol
Who likes to get a bit frisky in public / an inappropriate setting? โ dez lmao. levi is 100% shy about initiating ANY kind of frisky activity ANYWHERE, so dez has to coax him into opening up for her, which as soon as they're alone he's usually happy to go along with it
Who wakes up first, and do they wake up the other or let them rest? โ probably dez, levi stays up late a lot of the time gaming/watching anime so he needs his rest. but she lets him sleep uwu
Who is always taking pictures of the other when they arenโt looking? โ dez lmao. levi honestly finds himself in the weirdest predicaments often and he's just too cute for her to resist so she has to snap as many pics as possible whenever she can lmao
Who always forgets their wallet and never ends up paying for anything? โ it's usually levi, and even though dez is happy to cover him, he tries to pay her back asap. he doesn't want to come off like his scumbag big bro in that regard >:0
Who canโt sleep because the other snores or moves too much at night? โ levi isn't much of a snorer, but he moves around a lot in his sleep, which i can imagine being kind of annoying to dez especially if they're sharing his fucking tub bed lmao.
Who is better at video games, and do they let the other win or show no mercy? โ L E V I. again, do i need to explain it???? if he's in a kind mood and if it's a game that dez is less familiar with, he'll let her win, but if she's showing some development in skill, he's more likely to be competitive with her.
Who always gets up in the middle of the night to use the restroom and accidentally wakes up the other? โ levi lmao. mf has to pee like every two-ish hours despite his ability to sit around gaming for hours on end without moving so it always ends up needing to come out at night when he should be sleeping skjdfhs. poor dez in that tub bath having to deal with him having to get in and out constantly ๐ญ

ยปยป โโโโโโเฎเนโเนเฎ โโโโโโ ยซยซ แดแด๊ฑแด สแดแดสษชษดษข แดสแด words ' you're under arrest ' was enough to make the third born freeze in place, his hands up in the air quicker than a thirsty cat would jump on a pale of water. but then she finished her sentence and he was frozen in shock, a blushing mess as the back of his hand flew to his mouth and he squirmed awkwardly. โ ... wh-what do you mean, CUTE?! โ he protested, flustered. โ i-i'm not doing anything cute at all right now! i'm just sitting here watching more ruri-chan! n-nothing about me is cute ... ! โ

ษชแด
ษด'แด แดสษชษดแด he'd ever get used to this. sure, he loved dez, but when it came to acts of physical affection, particularly if he couldn't see what she was going to do at first, it made his skin crawl with the faintest bit of nerves. he was sure he jumped at least three feet in the air when he felt her slender arms wrap around him from behind, pulling him close. he was a demon and naturally much stronger than her, but being close to her like this was ... nice. she was warm, and her presence was so sweet and gentle ; it wasn't something he was used to receiving, even from his brothers. a tiny whine of protest left him, but the noise quickly turned into soft purrs as he NESTLED against her body, allowing her to tend to him as he relaxed against her.

แดแดข แดแดแดสแด
สแด unpredictable sometimes. not that he minded, but he was never very good at responding to surprises because his brothers always turned it into a prank or used them as opportunities to take advantage of him or try to scare him. thankfully, everything that dez did with him, she did with grace and pleasure, and it seemed as though she ENJOYED doing things with him. but there was something about her tone that made him swallow, half with nerves and half with excitement. she had been feeling him up all day ; she was a sensual person, and it wasn't like he didn't like that, but he was extremely shy when it came to that kind of thing. he bit at his lip, watching the light dance in her dark, pretty eyes, before speaking. โ ... wh-what kind of surprise are we talking about ... ? โ

ยปยป โโโโโโเฎเนโเนเฎ โโโโโโ ยซยซ แด๊ฑ แดแดแดส แด๊ฑ he enjoyed having dez wrapped around him like this, smothering him in more than the amount of affection he was currently craving internally, he still wasn't sure how he felt about her sneak attacks. sure, they could be fun, but sometimes they caught him off guard and made his heart race. this time, he knew exactly what she was doing when he felt her teeth GRAZING at the back of his neck, and his first instinct was to immediately shrug up his shoulders, protecting his sensitive skin from further assault. but she was relentless, and the game on his television screen was soon abandoned as he fell forward, laughter on his lips as he squirmed away from dez's nibbling at the base of his neck. โ ... h-hey, that tickles ... ! wh-what gives ... ?! โ

@lachrymosestorm whispered: [ neck ] to give my muse a hickey // Levi, she's doing this on purpose
ยปยป โโโโโโเฎเนโเนเฎ โโโโโโ ยซยซ แด๊ฑ แด
ษช๊ฐ๊ฐษชแดแดสแด แด๊ฑ it was for him to admit it out loud, this was probably one of his favorite pasttimes when he had his odd moments where nothing in his room immediately grabbed his attention. he loved the feeling of dez wrapped around him from behind like this, her nose pressed into the nape of his neck, breathing softly against his skin, nothing he could do to subdue the purrs that rumbled in the back of his throat. he was COMFORTABLE enough to fall asleep ... until he felt something press against the back of his neck hotly, the pressure growing deeper and deeper until there was somewhat of a sucking sensation against pale skin. he shuddered, knowing exactly what was happening and who was behind it, his pale skin quickly growing a dark red all over as he shivered, pleasure running through his whole body from head to toe. a tiny whimper managed to sneak past thin lips, and he leaned back against dez ever so slightly. thankfully his coat had a hood ... he knew how to hide what she was doing. but he'd worry about that later ; all his mind was focused on was this SENSATION, making him grow hot all over, and he squirmed. if this ended up with her lying him down and helping the pleasure grow tenfold, well ... let's just say he'd be absolutely okay with that.
