Walesmano Headcanons 🇮🇹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 for the bestie @senditothemoonn 💞

I'm so sorry this took so long!! I was nearly finished but tumblr reloaded somehow and it disappeared 😭😭 I can't remember all of the original post and I'm so sad but I tried to remember the best I could so here goes.

I think Dylan brings out a side of Lovino that most people don't have the privilege of seeing.

Their communication styles are very different. Argumentative Mediterranean vs. Conflict Avoidant Anglo. It takes a while for them to adjust, it's a valuable learning experience.

Lovi takes care not to be as loud around Dylan as he would be with others. He forces himself to be gentle and patient with - he's afraid of scaring him. But Dylan doesn't make him angry anyway. In fact if anyone can calm him down and temper his attitude it's his Biondino 🥺🥺 (little blondie)

In turn Lovino also empowers Dylan to be more confident and self assured, he won't let him be a doormat or a pushover anymore. Lovino is bold and protective. Dylan is calm and reassuring.

They both know what it's like to have obnoxious, overbearing, dysfunctional families so they make a point to cultivate peace for each other and intentionally practice healthy communication even tho it can start sounding like therapy speak.

They're very sweet and affectionate with each other. Initially they're not big on PDA, eventually they stop caring and act shamelessly mushy for the whole world to see.

Lovino loves to make Dylan laugh and blush. Dylan is never more satisfied than he is when he gets Lovi to display genuine, positive emotion.

Dylan spoils Lovino with baked goods, and Lovi keeps him well fed with that rich Italian home cooking and expensive dinners, so they both gain weight after getting together. On that note, I think they're about the same height but different body types. Dylan is softer and pudgier while Lovino is leaner and a bit stronger. Lovino likes wearing Dylan's thick wool sweaters, and Dylan finds comfort in the scent of his cologne.

They're both superstitious and bond over sharing folklore and fairytales from their respective cultures. Dylan isn't on board with the whole Catholicism thing but he tolerates it. Lovino claims Druidism is witchcraft.

Dylan loves cold weather. Lovino can't stand it. He forces him to get out beneath the Italian sun but he burns so bad. Winters in Wales are mostly spent inside snuggling by the fireplace.

Their living habits are pretty different. They have different tastes in aesthetics and food and music and films. Dylan enjoys reading and drinking tea. Lovino likes to watch football and sip on wine or liquor. Lovi is into formalities and putting on the ritz, Dylan is a goblincore homebody. They might not have much in common as far as hobbies, but they respect each other's quiet time and personal space. On the other hand they can also be pretty clingy... codependent in a cute way.

Their love languages are compatible. Their actual languages are not. Lovino would have a wild time trying to speak Welsh, and Dylan can hardly keep track of all the different South Italian dialects. Lovi does layer on the pet names though, Italians are so sappy when it comes to that, anything can be a term of endearment in the diminutive form.

Dylan is much more into being crafty and thrifty, whereas Lovino would happily spend good money on nice things. Homemade gifts and meaningful experiences vs expensive trinkets and lavish vacations. They're equally appreciated and they love making one another feel spoiled.

Dylan likes exploring locally, he's a bit outdoorsy. Lovino likes to travel, particularly in style, so they do a lot of that together. They both have a green thumb and maintain a beautiful garden together. Lovino grows the herbs and vegetables while Dylan tends to the flowers. They're regulars at the farmer's market and the cheese shop.

They both know they want kids in an idealistic sense, but are conflicted on the ethics of it. When they do finally decide to start a family, it becomes apparent that Lovino doesn't know how to wear a condom or simply won't. I can see them having a BIG family. Like overwhelming big.

Dylan is better with the kids but Lovino is the kind of Dad who guides his family. Not in an overly domineering way, but he makes sure they know they'll always be taken care of.

I really hope you liked these!! I don't know much about Wales as a character but I tried 💗💗💗

Because I messed up on the last one and only made it a day instead of a week.

Also I got a quite a few choose Wales x Romano so I replaced it with the least voted on ship in the last poll (Sorry Wales x India shippers 😔. Share your love in the tags/comments though!)
