Not my gif

A - Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)

Silco isn't one for what you may call "typical affection", especially not in public. He doesn't really give any physical affection in public - though he will make sure that people know that you are with him, and under his protection. In private there's lap sitting, hand holding, and snuggles in bed - not that he would reveal this to anyone.

B - Best Friend (What would they be like as a best friend? Where does the friendship start?)

Silco is the quiet, meditative but ultimately very sinister friend. He is quiet, and listens to everything you have to say - stepping in for a word or two when he deems necessary. He'll get things done for you - so long as you don't ask how he does it.

C - Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)

Sometimes. But only in bed, when he's certain that either no one will disturb you, or when he thinks you're asleep.

D - Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking, cleaning, ect?)

Silco can cook and clean for himself, but usually doesn't. As for settling down, he's not a typically domestic person, but would not refuse a family if it ended up in his lap.

E - Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)

First, he would calmly and bluntly explain the situation. Then, if you continued to resist this reality, he'll have you escorted (or rather dragged) from the premises.

F - Fiance(e) (How do they feel about commitment? Do they wanna get married?)

It's hard to make out what's Silco's feelings on marriage are - but his streak of commitment is largely unbroken. So unless you make some sort of deep emotional or physical wound, you shouldn't have much of a problem.

G - Gentle (How gentle are they both physically and emotionally?)

Physically, he's not always gentle, but emotionally he's more in touch than you would first assume. He's careful, calculated, and almost always knows exactly how to act - though you can't always tell when he doesn't know.

H - Hugs (Do they like hugs? How often do they do it, and what are they like?)

He's not always keen on hugs. When he normally has them, he's the one receiving them, and then slowly reciprocating them.

I - I Love You (How fast do they say the "love" word?)

It takes him a long time to say anything in that vein at all. The first time he does it is almost totally unexpected, though you're not exactly a stranger to the normal kind of affection he gives. It takes him longer to say the L word directly, but he gets there.

J - Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What are they like when jealous?)

He can get incredibly jealous, and you can see him start to get jealous too. He'll start to sneer, then he'll start to grip onto something - usually a glass - before barking at you to join him by his side, and keeping you there.

K - Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)

Normally, kisses are brief, featherlight, almost blink and you'll miss it. He often kisses you with more intensity before you both go to sleep. He likes kissing your jaw, whilst he likes kisses on the cheek and temple.

L - Little Ones (How are they around kids?)

He's surprisingly good with kids - look at how he took care of Powder/Jinx, for example. For such an ordinarily cruel man, he can be rather caring, once you get past that hard, outer shell.

M - Morning (What are mornings like with them?)

Quite lavish, in a sense. Though you don't get to spend all of your morning with him, what you do get to spend with him is rather full of the best things that the Undercity can afford, before Silco starts about his day.

N - Nights (How are nights spent with them?)

Nights are slow - usually you dine together, share a drink or two whilst Silco discusses some of what had happened that day, before you go to bed.

O - Open (When do they open up about themselves?)

Very rarely, almost never. The only time he does is to teach you some sort of lesson, but other than that, some parts of Silco are an entire mystery.

P - Patience (How easily angered are they?)

His patience is almost a double edged sword - in some ways, his patience has no end, and in others, his patience wears thin almost immediately. Though - he does not lash out at you directly; that honour is saved for his lessers, and occasionally the belongings in his study.

Q - Quizzes (How much do they remember about you?)

A whole damn lot - he knows almost as much about you as you do, not that you remember telling him. He just seems to innately know.

R - Remember (Favorite memory with you?)

He managed to "catch" you in his old operation centre once - staring out the window that he himself had so often gazed out of. Though, for a while, you hadn't known he was there, that image of you gazing out almost curiously into the dark waters of Zaun was burnt into his memory.

S - Security (How protective are they?)

Very. It doesn't matter if he knows you can defend yourself - there is always a threat, and he is determined to protect you from it, no matter the cost.

T - Try (How much effort do they put in?)

On the surface or first glance, it may not seem like much - but Silco pulls so many strings to make sure you're happy -rearranging his schedule because you made an off-hand

U - Ugly (What are their bad habits?)

He smokes and he drinks. Not excessively - he uses it as a vice, being a man in a position such as his is a stressful job, and habits like those are always within arms' reach.

V - Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)

He is slightly insecure about the scarring around his eye - and he is very aware of how he must present himself to others, and sometimes gets very caught up in that.

W - Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you?)

If you were very close to him, then yes - your absence would probably also frustrate him a lot.

X - Xtra (Random HC)

He used to try and dye his hair to hide the grey streaks - he started getting frustrated with how the dye often got everywhere.
He also secretly wants a cat, but dually does not want to keep an animal in such a detrimental environment.

Y - Yuck (Things they don't like either in general or a partner?)

Someone who's entitled without proper reason to be so. If you haven't worked to get to a certain place, then he doesn't believe you deserve it - especially if you gloat about it and abuse your position.

Z - Zzz (Sleep habits)

Silco is a very restless sleeper - he's often plagued with nightmares and night terrors, but not many people know about this, and he'd like to keep it that way. You and Jinx are the only ones who know.
