Kaeya Alberich, well beloved Captain of the Knights, yet he carries himself ever so mysteriously. There is certainly more to him... than meets the eye.
✨Comment down below your favorite thing about the Cavalry Captain!
Do you have any headcannons for hybrid Kaeya? Maybe he cuddles his S/O in his tail/train.
an ask omg!! thank you so much ive always wanted to get one of these HAHA sorry for the really late response as well..
i had a lot of mixed thoughts on hybrid kaeya when i was doing my hybrid!dckz post, i didn't know exactly how to write him like a peacock, alternatives were panther!kaeya and jackal!kaeya, very catboy but i settled on a bird somehow.
to respond to the actual ask, i think kaeya is less so affectionate but more so protective. he likes knowing you're his, and he's yours, but he's not so overbearing or greedy with you. he's felt what it's like to be tied down or restrained, and he loathes the feeling, i feel like he'd be very firm on freedom, your own and his as a partner.
tying that to hybrid!kaeya, as i mentioned, he'd like keeping a part of him with you, as a mark of what is his. a carefully picked feather behind your ear, being his favorite. id imagine he does quite like having you curl up next to him in a little ball, an arm around you his feathers resting on top of you like a blanket. (im unsure of the anatomical flexibility of peacock feathers, but i imagine him to have individual control of each long feather, like limbs) he likes seeing you curled up under his blanket of color, another form of his 'protectiveness'.
he isn't the kind to cuddle with you (unless you were having a bad day of course) but he doesn't mind you snuggling up to him, if that makes any sense? he finds it endearing. he also likes using his feathers for other forms of everyday affection; tucking back your hair, caressing your face, pulling you closer, and especially tickling you with his feathers, another way to tease you.
if you have a specific hybrid for kaeya in mind for me to hc, id be down to explore that too!! my asks are always open <3
