hey el! how are you? hopefully ur doing alr with school and such but anyways i had this idea of levi from obey me and a reader who was a kpop idol or something similar and how their relationship would play out 👀 idk i just think it's neat thought you would like it :)

hey anon! ty for the request! this was a lot of fun actually it was super cute to think about and write ^^ i did headcanons if that's ok! and i'm doing fine, studying for my ap exams and trying to catch up on work :) hopefully your day is going well and i hope you like the hcs <3

part ii. part iii. part iv. masterlist

leviathan x idol!reader headcanons

ok here we go !!!

you, y/n, also known as vega to your adoring fans, had just been enrolled in R.A.D.

who's vega, you might ask?

you're part of an idol group called galaxea and are the group's main vocalist and lead dancer (and resident moodmaker)

you and your members all have astrology related names and you chose yours, vega, after one of the brightest stars in the sky <3

your group is fairly popular amongst the 3 realms bc you guys are so super duper talented and very well rounded !!! there's nothing you guys can't do and you're always open to experimentation and trying new things which is part of the reason why your group is as popular as it is — you guys always come back better than before

anyways, bc galaxea is an extremely popular idol group amongst the 3 realms, your managers have special makeup designed for every member in your group

spoiler alert: it's magic

a charm was placed on them so that when you weren't wearing the personalized enchanted makeup, nobody would be able to recognize you as a celebrity

it's almost as if you exist as two separate people

tl;dr: nobody knows your actual identity

this is important both for keeping up appearances and to protect you guys' privacy :)

anyways !!! now that we have some backstory, let's continue

it's been a bit of time since you arrived in the devildom and you're steadily growing closer to the boys

they were all apprehensive about your arrival at the house of lamentation but all you had to do was like talk with and smile at them one (1) time and that was it they were pretty much whipped

except for one avatar of envy

this man istg

he probably hasn't had an actual genuine convo with anyone in awhile we all know this

so he's pretty awkward which is a given

he wouldn't admit it but he's actually really curious about you and your background but at the same time he doesn't want to come off as creepy or like a weird pathetic otaku with no social life who totally doesn't know how to talk to people normally

anyways!

he gives you space and just leaves you be for the most part

you two haven't really interacted, whenever you ended up passing each other in the hallways levi was glued to his phone or had his headphones on

to be completely honest, you felt a little nervous to talk to him since you've heard from his brothers that he can be very intense about his hobbies and interests but they won't actually say what they are, probably to let you find out yourself or to embarrass him later on

that, and you think he hates you. like a lot. he refuses to interact with you but in reality this boy is just super nervous :(

sometimes when you're just chilling wherever and drawing in your sketchbook he'll walk past and take a split second to peek and one time he swore he saw you drawing what looked like an idol that he recognized, but he speed walked too fast to tell who it was and now he doesn't wanna walk back because that would be really stupid and obvious and you'd totally find him gross and—

when levi snapped back to reality he was back in his room, probably having subconsciously walked there

he internally groaned, scolding himself for being a coward

he seriously did want to talk to you !!! he just didn't know how :(

he was so nervous over what you might think about his interests (esp bc of how much he got made fun of for them) and he figured you'd enjoy spending time with his brothers better anyways

you were also facing the same dilemma ☠

levi was the only avatar you hadn't properly interacted with (besides belphie, but you didn't even know he existed yet </3). you were pretty close with the others at this point given how it's been a few weeks since you began your stay in the devildom and every time you tried talking to the purple haired boy he ignored you !!! and you didn't know if this was intentional or not or if he really was just that zoned out lmao

one day, however, you guys were finally forced to talk 😌

asmo had ordered a haul of skincare products off of akuzon at the same time levi placed a new manga order, so the avatar of lust asked you if you could go get it for him because it was pretty likely levi just picked up all the packages without reading the labels

"alright, but are you sure? he doesn't… hate me or anything, right?"

"WHAT? are you kidding me?" asmo practically screeched

he could literally see how obvious it was that levi wanted to talk to you but he was just being a stubborn little shit about it and it was physically killing asmo to watch it happen

"no no no. he's just nervous! that's how he normally is. he doesn't take to new people very well since he's pretty reserved, but i'm sure he'd love you once you guys actually had a convo! and if he doesn't, then at least i don't have to share you even more than i already do <3"

a small giggle escaped your lips before you thanked him and went off to go meet your doom

you tried to stay calm but really didn't know what to expect and just hoped for the best

you reached his door and took a breath before gently knocking on it

a few moments passed before you heard any semblance of sound.

"what's the password?"

you blinked in shock. you didn't expect there to be a password, and knowing how practically everyone was banned from levi's room, you figured that it would be useless to ask anyone else for help

so !!! you decided to ignore his statement <3

"um, levi? it's me. asmo asked me to go pick up something from you? i think you took one of his akuzon packages by accident"

levi started internally screaming

he literally almost dropped the controller he was holding

you were here ?! at his room ?!?!? NOW ?!?!?!?

how could he have been so stupid ???

he goes through an error 404 moment rq before rushing to pick up some things off of his floor bc jfc his room was a mess and he did not want you to see that

he grabbed the box he had set down by one of his shelves and stared at it

in all honesty, he had noticed it was addressed to asmodeus a little after he had unboxed his manga, but he really wanted to start reading it asap and felt too embarrassed to go and give the package back almost immediately after he entered his room 😭

he sighed and opened the door wide enough to slip the box through

he heard a quiet "thank you" from the other side before a tiny gasp sounded and his internal alarm started going haywire

he tried to close the door as quickly as possible but then he heard you say "is that an aquarium?"

he froze.

now what?

if he shut the door on you he'd be a jerk and you wouldn't ever talk to him again. on the other hand, he didn't know if you were,,, cultured,,, or not. he assumed you were a normie, but maybe, just maybe, he was wrong?

he sighed and opened the door a little wider for you to clearly see behind him

"yeah, it is. what about it?"

and the moment he saw your eyes light up in awe his heart stopped

later at night he'd shake it off, thinking he was just actually going insane, but he swore in that moment he felt his heart flutter (to his dismay and vast disapproval)

he didn't know what it was exactly but he felt something and that was bad enough as is in his opinion

and when you excitedly asked "is that a demon slayer poster?" as you noticed it hanging on one of his walls, he practically pulled you inside his room

"you — you know what it is?"

"oh, um… yeah! i loved the manga, it was amazing! who's your favourite character? mine are giyuu and nezuko (or whoever you prefer :)"

you could practically feel the excitement radiating off of him and your spirits started to lift

levi let you look around a little and while he didn't want to come off as too enthusiastic, internally he felt so, so happy that someone else shared his interests. now he just had to see how far he could stretch it

you made small comments and squealed excitedly when you recognized certain posters and figurines and asked questions about the ones you didn't know, to which levi would happily provide answers

you teased him a little for all the ruri-chan merch he owned, and the boy just scoffed in response, suddenly a little self conscious about them

and when you gushed about how pretty his room is and said "you're so lucky to be in here all the time!" he knew. that was it. he's done for.

him? lucky? he had never thought that about himself, ever.

and when you turned to look at him, he felt his face flush and he stuttered slightly from embarrassment as a response

he could only hope that the ambience in his room concealed some of the bright pink dusting his skin

you on the other hand?

the light from his aquarium made you glow like a million little stars, and your smile looked like the sun itself had manifested into a single human being

why you, of all people?

this was so stupid. he couldn't believe this was happening.

no wonder his brothers were so soft on you already

but then something caught your attention

there was a poster above his bed that had been hidden by the shadows so it was hard to notice unless you really stared at it for a few seconds after letting your eyes adjust

you decided to walk closer to it and felt your mind go blank.

that was you. as vega. on the poster. with your members.

and when you looked closer, there were aesthetic polaroids, photo cards, and notes with your song lyrics from your different albums surrounding it, like a collage.

while levi's anime merch was an organized chaos and cluttered his room, covering almost every available space, this was neat and meticulously placed.

you turned to him, surprised to see him wide eyed

however, all you got in response were nervous, incomprehensible stammers again

levi sighed before arranging his thoughts into actual words. "l-look, it's a little embarrassing, a guy stanning an idol group like this, but i can't help it! galaxea's music is so good, and the meanings of their songs are really poetic, and their performances are amazing, and their personalities are so genuine and fun, and they're only one of the biggest bands in all of the realms right now! can you blame me?"

hearing him say that made you want to start sobbing (ik i would 😭). he really thought that highly of your group?

unsaid words lingered on the tip of your tongue. part of you wanted to see what would happen if you had told him that you were there on the poster, but you had a contract to honor and an identity to protect

besides, now that you were finally befriending levi, would he then only want to get closer to you because you were an idol he practically worshipped?

the odds were slim, but you had witnessed it too many times to take any chances

besides, messing with him and letting him figure it out himself would be a lot more entertaining 😌

it had been a few moments now, and levi was growing increasingly more embarrassed over his mini tangent. why did he say that? jfc levi way to go y/n definitely thinks you're weird now—

"you listen to them, too?"

and that was it, he might as well have fallen right there /j

/hj

not only were you actually into anime almost just as much as he was (and let's be honest, nobody will ever top his level of otakuness), but you had the same taste in music, too ???

he might as well be dreaming

needless to say, you guys ended up chilling a bit longer and talking about everything and anything you liked until you received a frantic text message from asmo asking about his precious skincare supplies 😭

you jumped up and quickly grabbed the box before apologizing, slightly embarrassed. rushing to get out the door to avoid even more of asmo's wrath, you added a hurried "sorry, i completely forgot about this! i hope asmo won't be mad… well, it was nice getting to talk to you for real! you're pretty cool, you know that? sorry again for this taking so long, i know you were probably busy! if you were playing something, let me know how it goes! anyways, i'll see you later :)"

and with a tiny wave and a small smile, you were gone

levi sat there on the floor, astounded

did that really just happen?

what the fuck

as soon as he knew you were out of earshot he started excitedly shouting and pumping his fist in the air. he actually talked to you !!! and you thought he was cool ??? him, of all people ??? oh my god what was he doing oh no what is this warm and fuzzy feeling make it go away

as for you, well, you expected to get scolded for taking an hour and a half, but you didn't expect asmo to tease you this badly

"huh, y/n. your cheeks sure are flushed! what type of blush do you use? wait, don't tell me…"

"asmo, wait—"

"oh my god what happened what did he do tell me everything"

"i-"

"you were gone for quite a long time, did he really talk that much~? or, judging by your reaction, did you do something el--"

"asmo."

"ok, ok, i get it,,, but i do need to know the details and please tell me you got a picture or video or something i desperately need new blackmail material"

"what?"

"what? i didn't say anything."

asmo never let levi live that down afterwards, yelling "simp" at him whenever they passed each other

where's the lie though 😭

on a different note, that night levi couldn't sleep.

sure, he deals with pretty rough insomnia (which is why he stays up all the time playing games and watching anime — it keeps him occupied and helps pass the time) but he literally was about to scream

his head was pounding. his thoughts were loud and chaotic, and he needed something to quiet it down before he officially lost his mind.

he instinctively looked up at the collage above him before connecting his headphones and shuffling the galaxea playlist he had made specifically for nights like these.

he felt embarrassed, but he kept replaying his interaction with you over and over and over again in his head, analyzing and committing the tiniest details to memory.

the way your hair fell, how you smiled, the sound of your laugh and the light, clear sound of your voice. your presence alone was comforting, and he hoped some of those feelings of safeness and security would stay a little longer just so that he could sleep. but something was… off.

he had never met you before, he was 1000% sure of it.

so then why did you seem so familiar?

talking to you was so much easier than he thought it would be. it felt natural. he was surprisingly relaxed just hanging out with you — any anxiety had almost completely disappeared in your presence.

you felt like sunlight, and even if he hadn't felt the warm rays on his skin in,,, a very long time, there was no other way to describe this feeling.

and he only got that fluffy, warm feeling when he was watching his comfort characters on screen and listening to idol groups he liked, specifically the one he was listening to right now

and as vega's crystalline voice rang out and sang "let's get lost at sea in these cold waves of the universe, as long as we're together, anywhere is home with you," he smiled, thinking that maybe a friend really is what he had been wanting all along. and as he was finally dozing off, he found himself eager for the next day to arrive — something he hadn't felt for as long as he could remember <3
