Ok so it's canon that Klavier mentally age regresses around Kristoph. It obviously wasn't the writers entire intent, but it is the type of abuse Kristoph uses on Klavier in this context. I know because I am a victim of it as well.
Tumblr media
You see him shrink in on himself when he panics about something - he hits walls with his fists like a frustrated child and holds his head. He even starts begging.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
When he was 17 he immediately jumped to his age as his defense when he realized oh no, I messed up, this isn't what Kristoph wanted me to say. I need to fix this or else. You see him going quiet any time Kristoph throws a backhanded comment during the misham case - oh, older brother is talking, time for me to be quiet.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The panic and silence from Klavier's end is involuntary, because he tries to bite back and he hates how he's feeling. You see him have a panic attack when he realizes that everything he knew was a lie.
I think the most tragic part is that Kristoph knows it only takes one degrading comment like that to get Klavier to stop talking, and regress back to feeling small and powerless. Klavier only breaks out of it because Apollo is there to ground him. Kristoph calls it control that Klavier is spiraling out of, and it is, but more specifically he's using trigger terms that sound simply rude around others, but they are heavy enough to knock Klavier down immediately. Because Klavier has had these threats and comments weighing him down gradually throughout his entire life. And now, during his weakest and most vulnerable moment, they've never hit him harder.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
We've seen how these comments affected Apollo's self esteem. Imagine what Klavier had to deal with all of his life. He's stuck in a loop of being that younger brother forever - he never had a chance to grow up. He knows he can't live up to Kristoph, and puts a mask on to be the adult rockstar. What's underneath it all?
A scared teenager.

You are very right. I have always felt like people are looking to close at Godot’s faults without realizing why he did what he did. This man has been trapped in coma for five years, and after barely recovering, the love of his life passed away. After committing the the murder of Misty Fey, Godot is in serious distress. Franziska was only fueling his anger and anxiety. So while it is wrong for him to say that, it’s understandable on why he snapped.
I want to talk about that one line that Godot says in Bridge to the Turnabout. Everyone knows which line I'm talking about, the "proof" that Godot is a sexist and a mysogenist and a terrible person.
Yes, what he said wasn't great. It's been debated that it was a translation error, or it was just him hating Franziska specifically, and not all women, I've seen these points made so many times, but I feel like we're missing the most obvious point. Even if Godot was fully in the wrong and he said something bad, context is important. We should for once see it from his perspective.
Godot has been trapped on that side of the bridge for at least a day, in near fatally cold conditions, trying to look after a child who isn't his. Just a few hours earlier he went through the trauma that was not only taking a life, but the life of his dead girlfriend's mother. And you can argue that that was his decision and a bad decision (and it was) but it's not a decision he ever wanted to make or wanted to have to make. He did what he could in that moment with that adrenaline to protect someone he cared about, and now he's feeling all of that without the ability to even talk to anyone about it. Couple that with the fact that he's injured, he got cut in the face, while probably still really hurts at the time he's talking to Phoenix and Franziska, and not to mention he doesn't know where Maya is. He risked all of this to save someone and he doesn't even know if it worked or was for the best.
Shortly after his lash out at Franziska, he starts ranting at Phoenix about Mia. Possibly because he's trying to project or distract himself from his guilt (which isn't great, but a normal thing for a human to do), but it could also be because his emotions are in such overdrive that he's thinking about everything bad that happened to him at once. Not only does he feel terrible about Misty and Maya, but it reminds him of how much he's still hurting from losing Mia.
Now put yourself in Godot's shoes. You've had a traumatic event happen to you not one day ago and are going through emotional and physical turmoil, and some random loud child (because she's the same age as Maya, he definitely sees Franziska as a child) starts yelling at you for something that in the grand scheme of everything doesn't matter. How would you react? Would you be super kind and understanding? No. You'd probably snap. And that's what Godot does.
This doesn't necessarily forgive him for the comment, and Franziska's initial feelings upon hearing it would be valid. But we can't treat this as a random isolated incident. Even Phoenix says that Godot seems really different. I quote: "There's something different about Godot today... I'm getting such a strong sense of... something from behind that mask of his. Is it anger? Or... Is it... sorrow?". Godot is upset and has no way of letting off steam without hurting anyone.
This was just a speculation that hit me, because I feel like we do it in real life a lot. It's easy to judge someone based on a comment or an action without looking into why they did it, but we have to try to work past that if we're to ever understand and connect with people.

this is so beautiful
Shidou Ryusei: as free as a bird
Shidou is uncomfortable, imperfect. He's vulgar, he's gross, he's blatantly cruel, and he's incapable of compromise. He's hyper-excitable, constantly ready to fight and even looking forward to that brawl. He switches between moods like a kaleidoscope, and what falls out in that kaleidoscope is unpredictable.
Shidou has absolutely no understanding of morality.
This is especially evident in his encounter with Kunigami.
He has absolutely no understanding of the concept of protecting someone simply for no gain. Trying to protect someone heroically, purely because of an understanding that it's wrong, is ridiculous to Shidou. Shidou has only "his" and "others", and that "his" so far includes only Sae, as shown in the episode where he tries to turn Sendou's face into mush.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Nor does he understand the moralization that it is wrong to hit people. He just doesn't get it, and it's probably ridiculous for him to even think about it, because at the deepest level he has an attitude to respond to any hint of a threat with a fight.
Most likely Shidou grew up in an environment where brute force decided everything. That's why he's so hyperexcitable.
Shidou is in a constant state of tension, waiting for even the slightest hint of a threat, which he is happy to crush immediately. He's constantly ready to strike because he's used to constantly feeling a threat - one that he had to respond to with violence because he wouldn't have survived otherwise. His "fight" response, out of a combination of ancient instincts called "fight-flight-freeze," is always switched to the max.
We all know that the attack is the best form of defense, and Shidou follows this motto with his entire being. "Beat your own so that others will fear you" is about him.
Shidou doesn't mention his family at all in his Blue Lock profile like other players do. Remember how he talks about Santa in the same form - "I can buy something on my own" sounds very childish and unhappy. When you're trying to prove to yourself that you don't need it at all - because if you need it, you won't get it anyway.
Beyond that, even leaving aside his family and theoretical home environment, we know for a fact that Shidou didn't play for any football team before Blue Lock.
He was a loner, and therefore the only space where he could practice was the street.
And street football is insanely, inhumanly violent.
And it makes sense that this similar environment, both at home and in the game, formed the core of Shidou's personality that we see in the manga. The core of personality, which is based on the desire to survive, and not just survive, but to show everyone around him that despite everything he has gnawed out a life for himself with his teeth. A life in which cruelty is the law.
A life where he exists.
Shidou is probably one of the most evident Blue Lock players, for whom football is not only inextricably linked to life - it is life. And Shidou is absolutely explicit about this both in the interview and in the manga.
For Shidou, football and life are one and the same.
The same thing that Aiku says: Shidou is incapable of separating the field and life. They're inseparable in his world in general; they're one and the same.
Tumblr media
It is only logical that Shidou transfers the laws of his life to football as well; and ends up playing football the same way he plays life - a football of the "survival" kind. Where it is his biological need (I'm sorry), his only aspiration, the violence that breaks everything in its path. Where the way to "survive the game", just as in life, is to leave your mark, to somehow prove your existence in people's lives, to be remembered by them and imprinted in their memories.
And pay attention to the way Shidou lives: not according to the rules, uncomfortable and bright, believing that it is better to burn to the death than to lie in a corner as a gray shadow, but alive.
There are no rules in Shidou's football; therefore, there are no rules in Shidou's life.
Tumblr media
And that's why Shidou despises heroes and "good guys"; because only naive idiots who don't understand real life, the one where your survival is all that matters. That's why he mocks Kunigami's principles so much: because to him, a child for whom his whole life has been one big attempt to gnaw his teeth out to survive, such principles are irrelevant.
Because there are no heroes in Shidou's world, and even if there were, they've long since broken.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And there are no restrictions in Shidou's life either. He lives a violent life, and it makes sense that he lives by the same principles in Blue Lock, not hesitating to threaten Rin with the end of his career or Igaguri with murder.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He's not violent because he takes some special pleasure in bullying Igaguri: he's violent because that's just who he is. He doesn't have a "harming others is not okay" attitude. It's instinct - as seen especially in his episodes of fighting with Rin. He doesn't care at all about causing him long-term harm or ruining his career - on the contrary, he enjoys it in the moment.
Tumblr media
And this is especially evident in his relationship with Isagi; while Shidou had nearly smashed his head in the day before, on the field he already openly admires him and is quite friendly. Shidou doesn't give violence any particular importance - you don't give any importance to brushing your teeth or throwing out the rubbish in the morning, do you?
For Shidou, it's just insignificant, because violence is the organic basis of his life, its law and right.
Today he's trying to kill Isagi, and tomorrow it's Isagi-chan.
Tumblr media
Because Shidou has no social competence - he had no parents to bring him into society and set some morals.
And his desires are pretty simple and even primitive. When he learns of his potential salary, his first thought is how much he can eat on it. All he basically wants, almost to the point of obsession, is to induce vivid emotions, explosion, adrenaline - something Shidou is addicted to, living in constant danger and something that allows him to feel alive and existent.
You know who that sounds like? Denji. A main character from Shidou's most favourite manga.
They both had no guides to society. They're both unfortunate kids who were deprived of absolutely everything when they were young. Who are so vulgar and repulsive not because there's anything wrong with them and they act so deliberately and meanly - but because they just don't know any other life. They just don't understand what it's like to live differently. They both live on base instincts.
And they both try to greedily claim as much as they can from the life around them - the food, the people, the sensations.
Because they had nothing before.
Back to Shidou and his football.
The most amazing thing about Shidou is the way he treats his opponents (omitting attempts to injure them). Shidou, even when losing, finds time to admire them - to admire those who took the ball away from him or stole a goal. He's really just having a good time - while for Rin, football is something to be taken completely seriously, for Karasu it's a need to pre-analyse opponents, and for Snuffy it's work, Shidou is just having fun.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And at the same time, what, along with "watch as world reaches its end" and "at the end of the day, when I became nothing, tears came out" demonstrates the duality of his nature is his attitude to losing.
He and Kaiser actually have too many parallels, but this is one of the most obvious - even though they treat the issue differently, they act in the same way.
They're both prepared to admit when they're losing - and they're both willing to break themselves for the sake of the goal. They both know how and when to tame jealousy and the losing parts of their being.
Because they don't believe in winning (explosion) any other way.
Shidou knows when to back down. Because he learnt this too from his childhood - that if the opponent is stronger than you and you keep carelessly breaking forward, sooner or later it will destroy you. The only way to win is to recognise his superiority and fracture yourself, forming a new self - one that can defeat him (as seen in Shidou's willingness to stop fighting so that Ego would let him out, and Kaiser's with his story with Noa).
The ability to appreciate and recognise the strength of your opponent is a basic principle of survival.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But at the same time (just like Kaiser), Shidou doesn't believe that there are invincible opponents. You just have to know the way to break them.
Or rather, not know: feel. Which is what happens at the U-20 game when Shidou enters the flow.
Tumblr media
Logically, with all of the above, Shidou is a complete individualist, and is unable to comply with Rin even for the sake of a goal - because Shidou knows he can beat him. The point at which his PXG game has evolved - with two formations, one centered on Shidou and the other on Rin - is the clearest evidence of this.
Shidou knows when to back off - but Shidou isn't going to back off until circumstances force him to.
And in the end, this approach of Shidou ended up being too egoistic for Blue Lock, which is insanely ironic. What's also funny is that along with it, it's his attitude towards football that epitomises Ego's ideal - a player who puts everything he has into it because it's his way of surviving.
Tumblr media
And so we come to that one scene of punishment. And it's this, along with Shidou's monologue from the U-20 game, that reveals him the most.
Because in the first few frames Shidou looks frankly miserable. Of course, anyone would look that way in his position. But suddenly Shidou starts talking calmly, offering a compromise - and then in the same second he snaps.
He explodes, cursing Ego - though as his words show he understands the reason for the punishment - he's even willing to compromise. It's illogical to curse the one on whom his salvation depends, isn't it?
Shidou acts this way because he's afraid.
Because in this moment - bound, locked up, and alone - he is defenseless.
He's like a caged animal that can't think logically - he's terrified, he's scared, he can only throw himself helplessly around the cage, grinning his teeth wantonly. This is the first time we see him so seriously angry (he still did get some fun, adrenaline rush during the fight with Rin).
The worst thing for Shidou, free as a bird or a tiger and most of all wanting that very freedom (more about that later) is vulnerability and limitation. Powerlessness. For the sake of overcoming this, he is ready to give up violence and his principles of life, as long as he is released and pulled out of this hell of helplessness.
Tumblr media
And this fear is actually incredibly characteristic of his personality too.
But in order to understand why, of all the possible punishments of the world, it is the restriction that drives him to panic, let's remember what football means to him and his style of play in it.
Shidou has sharp and monstrous, even beastly reflexes and instincts. They are honed to the max. He is very strong physically, fast, agile, flexible, perfectly sensing the space around him. Optimal in his movements. Unpredictable. His illogical patterns are impossible to read.
Shidou is all of one naked reflex and instinct, free in his absolute savagery. He is a completely separate character outside of the Ego's system. He literally speaks a different language.
And Sae happens to be the only one who understands that language.
And up until their moments together, this is most vividly shown when Sae stops Shidou from beating up another player - and not just stops him, but understands what needs to be said.
Which again proves that in the violent chaos of Shidou's life he does have a certain logic. A constantly shifting, flexible one, but one...
Which, again, Sae alone understands.
Tumblr media
And it is through playing with Sae that the whole point of why football is so important to Shidou is revealed. Why he plays it so instinctively, despising the rule, the tactics, and his teammates. Why is he suddenly willing to "break himself" for Sae, adjusting his rules of life to fit him, yesterday's stranger - because Sae accepts both him and his football, and doesn't try to limit or remake him. And that's exactly why Shidou is willing to be changed to match him.
Because Shidou's football, the life he wants to achieve, is all about freedom.
Tumblr media
And that's not enough for him. It's not enough for Shidou just to play, just to live. It can't be enough for a man who is used to living on adrenaline and fighting for his existence every day.
Life for Shidou is about freedom, just as football is his escape and a place where he can exist.
Shidou stands out, doesn't follow the rules, exists so vividly and with every action clearly and distinctly proving his presence...
To live.
Both football and Shidou's life are about escaping, about breaking out of his limits. To see the world as himself - free and alive.
Football makes Shidou feel whole, feel alive. Football is what glues him together. It's the only way he can prove what he is - by achieving something. By making himself colorful, visible, uncomfortable - in a way that he can't be turned away from.
One that will allow him to leave a trace of his existence in the world. One that will prove to him that he is.
For Shidou, all these metaphorical (or not) explosions are actually a way of proving that he exists.
Tumblr media
Even his fights and quarrels actually serve his purpose - and Shidou himself confirms this in his monologue. All of this is to be vivid, to imprint, to exist.
To be someone who cannot be forgotten or turned away from.
Who cannot be overlooked.
Who exists as obviously as he can.
Tumblr media
Even his favorite subjects at school - Art and Physical Education (the latter obviously about football) - are related. Because it's possible to leave your mark on the world with art, too - and it makes sense that Shidou admires it so much. Because art is, after all, the most colorful thing a living person can leave behind.
And for Shidou, art is football.
Tumblr media
For him, to exist is to be free. And to burn so brightly that it blinds his own eyes - otherwise both life and football become bland, boring and insignificant to him. Just like his evenings - remember "When is the last time you cried?" from The Egoist Bible? And remember Shidou's response?
"At the end of the day, when I became nothing, tears came out."
Because in the evening, emotions and people disappear and you're left to yourself. Empty, aimless and in a way pathetic - because you're no longer on fire. Because you lose all the things that made you feel during the day.
Shidou depends on vivid emotions - because, due to his difficult youth, they are the only things that allow him to feel that he is alive.
That he's free.
Tumblr media
Shidou's favorite song is also about freedom and trying to break free from the constraints of his life.
There is nothing in the world Shidou longs for more than freedom.
And the spider in Shidou's favorite song is limited and weak.
A spider without wings is incapable of flying. The spider without wings is trapped in unfreedom, looking at the blue and vast sky above his head every day - one that he cannot reach.
A spider without wings is incapable of flying - and those wings Shidou himself, like the spider in the song, could not get, no matter how hard he tried.
But Sae gave Shidou those wings. Sae gave Shidou the ability to play to his full potential, the way he craved with his entire being. Sae took him out from Blue Lock. Sae acknowledged him. Sae gave him a chance to make his mark on the world and gave him purpose, he showed him that there was someone who understood him and his aspirations on this base, animal level.
Sae gave Shidou freedom.
And Shidou learnt to fly.

ᰔ KERMIT'S NOTE: I LIVE! I HAVE RISEN BACK ONCE MORE! I like to apologize for my lack of posting. I've been really busy with work and I lacked motivation for the past few months. As a celebration of TickleTober, I've decided to create this fic. I will try my best to write more. And thank you to the people who stuck around! If you want commissions, DM me or visit my Ko-Fi.

ʚ WARNING: NSFW, Sensual biting, Teasing, Erotic Tickling, Overstimulation, MINORS!! PLEASE GO AWAY.
Tumblr media
It was that time of year again—the year when children would wear their most flamboyant costumes and wander around the luminous and chilly neighborhood. The children would knock on each home, hoping to receive something good to eat. Upon their next home, they would meet a particular house that wasn’t fond of trick-or-treaters. That house was none other than the Kento’s residency.
The house looked empty and eerie. You could’ve mistaken it for an actual haunted house. Those who were cocky enough to knock on the door will meet with a surprise.
A go-away sign? Welp, better luck next time kids; Nanami Kento doesn’t celebrate Halloween.
Ah yes, Hallow’s Eve. Nanami’s least favorite holiday. Not because he’s an envious adult, but because he hates the obnoxious noises he’ll have to endure until late at night.
You, however–enjoyed the thriller nights. You’d gaze at the children running along the neighborhood in search of some candy. You missed the times you’d trick-or-treat with your friends and family. As you slowly closed your bedroom window, you turned to your lover Nanami, who was too busy watching the latest horror movie.
“Oh Kento,” you sighed, “don’t you miss trick-or-treating as a kid?” Nanami flicked his eyes at you before quickly peering back at the television. “I don’t like Halloween that much.” He stated. “And why is that?” You asked, now sitting beside him. “There is no reason. I merely enjoy the alluring night when Halloween comes to an end.”
"I knew you’d say something like that.” You chuckled. “I guess you’re right,” Nanami smiled. “But there is one thing I like about this holiday.” A cocky smirk curved on your lips. “I bet it’s the candy, right?” You gestured. Nanami looked at you casually. He then pulled you into bed, making you lie down.
“You’re correct. How did you know, dear?” He asked. “Hehehe… You’re always a sucker when it comes to sweet things.” You replied. Nanami chuckled at your comment. “I will admit that,” He hummed, “But there is this one rare candy that I’m fond of nowadays.” As Nanami says that, he gets on to of you, making you anxiously giggle. “I wonder what this new candy is called,” You replied. “It’s called the [....] special. It’s currently my favorite.” “Oh yeah?” “Yes. And I’m dying to know the flavor.”
Wasting no time, Nanami pressed his lips against yours. He kept your tongue preoccupied as his hands crept under your shirt, his fingers gently caressing your tummy. He then pulled back from the kiss leisurely, awing at the feverish look plastered on your face.
“Mmm… Just as I thought,” Nanami husked. “You are sweet like candy.” He then kissed your neck, making you gasp in surprise. You moan softly between his kisses, almost tickled by his lips against your skin. A shy giggle escaped your lips as he gently tugged your skin.
“W-wait…” You whispered. “Ken…that tickles…” Nanami’s ears rang to know you were ticklish. A small smirk curved on his lips. “Is that so?” He teased. “Would you like me to stop then?” “N-no! I don’t hate it or anything. It’s just that this feeling is unusual.” You said. Nanami gave you a reassuring kiss. “Shall we sort out this unusual feeling together?” He asked you. You’d be lying if you said you didn’t hesitate. However, you couldn’t help but nod for the thrill of it.
You watched Nanami as he pinned your arms above your head. “Keep your arms up. You can do that for me, right?” He asked you. “That depends on what you’re gonna do.” You remarked.
Nanami didn’t reply to your response. Instead, he let his calloused fingers do the talking. He slowly rubbed the palms of your hands, radiating a ticklish feeling.
His fingers slowly descend, now getting dangerously close to your underarms. You tried squirming away without pulling down your arms. But Nanami was quick to straddle you. His fingers scribbled across your poor armpits without warning, forcing you to pull your arms down.
“Ehahaha! W-wait! Wahaihaihait!” You squealed. “Wait for what?” Nanami cooed. “Don’t tell me you’re backing down so soon.” “N-not true!” You recoiled. “I just wasn’t ready! That’s all.” “You don’t have to be ready, sweetheart.” He replied. “Now, keep those arms up. Don’t even think about pulling them down.”
“Nn…” You whined, slowly putting your arms back up–only for Nanami’s fingers to attack you again. Scribbling and scratching against your poor ribs. You arched your back almost instantly. Your head turned from side to side as the tickling was unbearable.
“AHhnn! Kentohoho wait!” You pleaded, clenching your fist together. “I’m sorry baby. But I already lost my patience with you.” Nanami hummed, nuzzling against your neck. His hands slowly spider across your sides and back. “Nooahahaa! P-please, slohohow down!”
Nanami found peace through your whines and pleading. He dipped his head down to your stomach, planting tiny kisses and nibbling across your sensitive skin.
“I love this cute tummy…” Nanami muttered, his hot breath grazing your skin. “It’s soft and warm like baked bread. Wouldn’t you agree [....]?” Your words became inaudible. A mixture of laughter and moans escaped from your lips.
Nanami chuckled at your state, enjoying the lovely noises you made for him. He continued teasing your tummy. His hands clawed on your hips to keep you in place. Suddenly, his tongue slipped inside your navel, tickling you in a frenzy of hysterical laughter.
“HEEHAH!” You shrieked, right before covering your mouth with your hands. “And this adorable belly button,” Nanami teased, “It’s sensitive hm?” You only giggled and shook your head. “You liar….” He cooed, gently blowing at your navel. As he went further down, he stared at your twitching sex.
“[....],” Nanami sang to you, “don’t tell me you’re getting aroused just from me tickling you.” “Hehehe! N-no!” You panicked, pressing your legs together. “I-it’s not like that at all…” “It’s not? Then why so shy love?”
Nanami slowly spread your legs apart, revealing your aching spot. You let out a squeaky moan in surprise when Nanami’s fingers stroked you lustfully. You watched him hazily as he peeled your remaining undergarments.
“It seems like the [....] added a new flavor.” He joked. Nanami then grasped your inner thighs as he leveled his head at your sex. His breath only inches away from you. He then looked up at you again, taking detail of your shallow breaths and heated face. “Thank you for the treat….” He rasped.
Nanami then wrapped his lips against your sex. His tongue was light and gentle. Yet the sensations rushed through your body. You moaned happily as he growled and moaned against your sex. “Ahahaha… K-Kento… Kento…” You moaned, bucking your hips repeatedly. Nanami let out reassuring hums as he massaged your hips, stimulating you further.
“Your flavor…” Nanami grunted, “It’s so enticing. I want more of it… I want more of you…” He kissed your lips with hunger, and you melted into the kiss almost instantly. You then felt something poke your thigh. You then had an idea.
“Oh Kento,” You sang, “did you know that there’s a new candy in stores?” “Hm? What’s it called?” Nanami asked. “The Nanami - Delux. I assumed you heard of it.” His lips turned into a curt smile. “Suppose I have,” he replied, pulling out his leaking cock. “Are you willing to take responsibility?” You giggled and wrapped your arms around his neck. “Perhaps. I’ve been dying to know your flavor.”

OP this is the most beautiful thing you wrote. I hope you’re doing okay and you live happily ever after.
Dating Diego Armando Would Include...
Tumblr media
This is literally just a small drabble because I’m replaying Trials and Tribulations and want to begin writing for Ace Attorney and I find his character interesting but hopefully someone else can enjoy them as well! <3
(I do not own Phoenix Wright or its characters, all rights go to creators. Gif credit goes to @hotel-japanifornia.)
☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°
Diego Armando is a man whose made up of rough edges. Sure, he has his flaws, and sometimes his walls can seem almost too cracked and stony to climb, but there’s a warm, caring centre to him. He’s trying his best to be a better man for you, so please just gently help him along. He’s doing his best.
He wants to be the best version of himself that he can be, but only because you came along, tumbling into his life like a hurricane snapping at his heels. You - you’re all encompassing. Every thought, every wish, every pang of his heart feels as if it’s just constantly drawn to you, until he finds himself nearly going out of his mind in how desperately he wants to find every second by your side.
So when you allow him to be, he finds himself the happiest he’s ever felt before. He genuinely didn’t know that humanity was capable of this kind of joy and goodness.
Diego is the kind of man to sleep in only a pair of boxers and some oversized cute little t-shirt. It’s the cutest thing when he comes stumbling out of bed when he has to be up and in court early in the morning. You can always hear him: feet slapping against the oaken floorboards, shoulders banging against the walls in his sleepy state, and the little yawns and mumbles he gives as he makes his way towards the kitchen and immediately seeks out you. It usually ends with your spatula being dropped to the floor as he comes up behind you, snaking one arm around your waist and pulling you into his chest. He presses a tired, but warm kiss against the side of your head as he nestles into you, nearly falling asleep again.
The two of you sit opposite each other during breakfast, a plate of pancakes shared between you. Behind the honey rays of the rising sun, his eyes shine with mirth and euphoria as he watches you from the rim of his coffee cup. He’s still too sleepy to say much, but he’ll teasingly reach out and kick your legs gently as he laughs into his coffee, until it turns into a full on competition and breakfast ends up forgotten about.
He’s also the type of guy to buy the two of you matching coffee cups when he moves into your apartment - some kind of cheesy ‘Star Wars’ Han and Leia quote on two matching mugs.
They’re literally his prized possessions. Although, most of his are usually stained with your lipstick because Diego keeps on collapsing down on the sofa next to you like a rag doll. You literally have no idea how this man manages not to spill a drop as he rises onto an elbow, body still half resting over your side and legs splaying over the edge of the armrest. But he hasn’t, instead shoving his whole cup into your face and making pouty noises until you try the latest blend of coffee he’s invented.
Before the *ahem* poisoning, your boyfriend used to LOVE going out to coffee shops as small date nights after work. This is just so he can breath in the frothy aroma of the small, bustling café, but his greatest joy is holding your hand over the chequered cloth and squeezing it between his long fingers every so often, just to reassure you that he’s always listening. The bustle of people, the sound of the expresso makers, the scent of coffee beans and vanilla syrup all float to the back of his mind as he just sits with his head in his hand, looking at you with these huge, proud heart-eyes as he listens intently to you rambling about your day. (Even though he knows every little thing that happened because the two of you both work as lawyers in Grossberg’s Office, he’s still hung on every word as if you had your fingers wrapped around his heart.)
He shares his suit jacket with you a lot, especially when snow has hushed the landscape. Since he’s so tall he knows that he can keep you safe and cosy and close, away from harm when he wraps the material around your shoulders and tucks you into his side.
Will 100% growl in his sleep and snuggle up against your shoulder if you play with the long manes of his hair at night. Diego is a secret little spoon, so often you start out the night trying to wrap yourself around the freckled, huge plane of his bare back as he cuddles against your stomach. It always ends up though with him laying star fished on top of you no matter how much you try to roll his heavy body off - arm heavy against your waist, leg comfortably over both your own, and face squished into your neck. 
He’s the type of person to pull your feet onto his lap during stormy, thundering nights and just have deep conversations. Turns out Diego is kind of touch starved, despite his cocky nature, and so it usually ends up with him conked out asleep with his head resting heavily on your lap.
He just feels safe around you, he can’t help it.
He makes you blush in the office with his TERRIBLE pick up lines that make even Grossberg sigh and leave the room. Diego pretends not to notice (he’s very good at hiding his laughter as a smirk behind his coffee), but the wink he sends you let’s you know it’s all in good jest.
Will later fall asleep at his desk with his head resting against your own, his snores rumbling through his chest and making you laugh into your case file.
He loves just grabbing your waist and slow dancing with you at any moment in the apartment. Literally any, be ready!! He likes to dip you down against his strong arms, just so he can teasingly stare into your eyes and his face lowers closer and closer to your neck. When he finally hears your breath hitch, he finally gives in and presses a nibbling trail of kisses up your skin, before blowing a raspberry.
The two of you end up laughing so much he accidentally stumbles and the two of you fall to the floor, landing on each other in a giggling pile.
He’s that tired in the morning, that the only way to get the tension to leave his shoulders is to clamber up behind him in bed. Straddling his hips with your legs, just lean over his shoulder and button up his vest for him, so he can lean back against you and just take a moment to sigh in drowsy contentment.
Hahaha we’re going to pretend that Dahlia doesn’t exist and Diego gets to accomplish the most important mission he has in life - to love you forever. But in reality, you go to visit him every single day in the hospital.
The worst time is one of the last - the time you were dusting out his suits and a small velvet box came clambering out of one of the vest’s breast pockets. Inside, you find the ring he had kept hidden, waiting for the perfect moment - for the proposal setting he knew you deserved.
And you just deflate onto the chair next to his bed, with the machines beeping like daggers into your ears and the whir of his breath against the oxygen machine making the crying gasps stick in your throat like tar. You just wring his hand, holding it tight against your lips as you cry and cry and just mutter ‘yes, yes, yes’ over and over again in the hopes that he’ll hear just one.
