I might just make this a general being with Vergil thingie, but there is a tiny bit in here that you could read as being a smol s/o haha!
Just dating Vergil things:
I guess from an outsider’s perspective, it might not seem like Vergil cares about you because he is a very, very independent person. If you’re someone who constantly craves affection, I think you might struggle when it comes to being with Vergil. He is someone who thinks more than he feels, but he’s learning about what to do with the feels when it comes to being with you, so please be patient.
That being said, when he is affectionate with you, it just means so much more and feels like so much more. Any affectionate gesture, no matter how simple, is kind of intense; in the best possible way! For example, maybe after a decent scare you’re trying to stay strong with your hands clenched tightly together so you won’t give away that you’re shaken. Your boyfriend is incredibly observant even though he seems like he doesn’t care 1200% of the time. He does care and Vergil hates it when you’re scared. So he’ll gently take your hands in his and silently stay with you until he feels that you’re not feeling so vulnerable anymore. It’s not just a simple gesture of affection, not just holding hands, it’s kind of more like a small promise that he’ll be there for you.
Dante gives his brother so much shit for being with you. Not that he hates you, its just that the red devil is so happy that his surly brother has found someone. Praise the fucking universe. If you’re 100% human, it just gives Dante that much more ammo. He’ll walk around pretending to be Vergil sometimes with is hair slicked back “I’m Vergil and I hate all humans except the oneI’m totally banging one right now~”. Honestly its funny and you can see that Dante loves his brother very much and is happy that Vergil has found you. Although, Vergil sometimes gets really fed up with Dante and will stick some of his summoned daggers in him. Not fatally of course, but he does it out of the blue and it can scare you. “Ah! Vergil why did you do that to him?! He was joking—” “Hmph. It will take a lot more than that to kill that imbecile. Would you like me to demonstrate?” “Vergil, no…”
Vergil stares at you. It’s not bad staring, he’s just kind of trying to rationalise how he strongly he feels for you. Like, up until this point he’s never cared about anyone like he’s cared about you. He’ll look at you and pretty much just be a little bit bewildered. Consider this: Vergil is an incredibly powerful being. He can destroy legions on his own if he wanted to. He could crush your skull in his fist on a whim! But some days you’ll smile at him and sweetly ask him to do some menial task like get you your favourite mug from the top shelf because you can’t reach and he will gladly do it without question. He should be the one giving orders, he should have everyone under his thumb, but you just… smile and he’s ready to do anything for you. It’s pathetic. Sometimes you catch him looking, “Hm? What is it, Vergil?” He’ll just look away and shake his head. “…Nothing, worm.”
On that note, really bizarre pet names? Like, okay, they are degrading in most cases, but they’re really weirdly sweet when Vergil uses them with you. They are never said with any kind of malice, although to any outsider it’s probably fairly alarming because your boyfriend is very clearly calling you things like ‘weakling’ or ‘worm’ or constantly announcing that ‘you are the biggest thorn in his side’ and ‘you’re too much trouble’. But its okay. No one ever misses that very brief flash of warmth in his expression when you fire back with, “Mmhm and you love me, so shh.”
Best moments with Vergil is if he’s reading something on the couch and
you kind of wriggle under his arm to try and take a nap against him. He
will absolutely roll his eyes and chide you for bothering him while he’s
doing work or whatever, but its not like he won’t slightly adjust how he’s
seated so you’re much more comfortable and can actually rest.
“I could kill you at any time, little worm.” “Hm? Oh, I know. Love you too~”
