Headcanons what it would be like to be in a relationship with Bondrewd

Bondrewd (Made in Abyss) x GN!Reader
Warnings: manipulative behavior, toxic relationship, kidnapping, possessive behaviors
Note: There are hardly any fanfictions about him so I decided to write headcanons about him myself! Oh well... My taste in fictional characters is terrible <3
Being in a relationship with Bondrewd would certainly be an interesting experience
He is a cold, calculating man who is not afraid to use any means necessary to accomplish his goals
He's also extremely loyal and dedicated to those he cares about and willing to do whatever it takes to protect them (Of course, only if you don't stand in his way)
He is also a great listener and is open to different perspectives
Despite all these qualities, Bondrewd can also be quite intimidating and difficult to approach. He is highly independent and prefers to rely on his own judgement, even when it comes to people in his life
Being in a relationship with Bondrewd can also be quite intense, as he has a tendency to think deeply and analyze things from all angles
"Knowledge is power, so use it wisely and never waste it"
You probably wouldn't be allowed to explore the Abyss alone - He thinks it's too dangerous and you could be in danger
Most of the time you would have to stay in Ido Front with Bondrewd
Sometimes you are allowed to explore the Abyss with him, but you have to stay close to him
Listen to him or you won't be allowed to explore the Abyss for a while
He could come off as a bit of a tyrant, but he would be willing to do anything to make sure his partner was "happy" and safe
That said, Bondrewd is also a very intelligent and shrewd man, who can read people and situations like no other
Occasional headpats
He is not a romantic person but sometimes he will make small gestures like remembering your favorite food or giving you your favorite flowers that he found during his last exploration
A relationship with him would be sure to have plenty of both excitement and challenge, as his partner would have to constantly be on their toes to keep up with him
In the beginning he will try to keep his experiments as secret as possible
But at some point it will become inevitable
If you want to leave him after learning about the experiments, you have no chance
Stay in Ido Front or die
Bondrewd is a complex and multifaceted character, and it is difficult to accurately assess how manipulative he would be in a relationship
In general, he is a very calculating figure, and he tends to use his knowledge and power to manipulate people for his own benefit
He is known for using the people around him for his own gain, and his manipulation tactics are often subtle, making it difficult for those he interacts with to identify his intentions
"The power of a single determined soul is vast and limitless"
Gaslighting... A lot
Ultimately, Bondrewd's level of manipulation in a relationship would depend largely on the situation and the people involved
Being in a toxic relationship with Bondrewd would be a difficult experience, to say the least
His controlling and manipulative behavior would be hard to deal with and he would expect nothing less than absolute obedience and loyalty from his partner
"Indeed, love is an interesting concept"
It would be an emotionally draining experience as Bondrewd would be emotionally distant but possessive, always wanting to know what his partner is doing and questioning them whenever they don't meet his expectations
The relationship would be filled with fear and power dynamics, as Bondrewd is both physically and mentally domineering. As such, it would not be a healthy or positive relationship and it is likely that neither the partner nor Bondrewd would find any joy or contentment in it
Getting kidnapped by Bondrewd would be an extremely harrowing experience
The kidnapping itself would likely be done in a way to be completely unexpected. Bondrewd is renowned for his ability to blend in with the shadows and enact his plans without anyone being aware of his intentions. He is highly skilled in the art of surprise and his actions are always calculated and well-timed
The experience of being captured by Bondrewd would undoubtedly be one of immense terror. He is known to be merciless and unyielding, with his cold and indifferent attitude rarely displaying any emotion. It would be an experience of complete powerlessness and helplessness, with no hope of escape
Bondrewd would likely use the kidnapped individual for his own selfish purposes; either as a pawn in his schemes or to gain some sort of advantage. It is clear from his history that he is not above using tactics such as blackmail, bribery and intimidation to achieve his goals
It is unlikely that anyone taken by Bondrewd would ever be seen again, or at least not in the same state as before
"Did I give you permission to leave?"
Furthermore, you would be under constant surveillance and would not have the ability to escape or attempt to talk your way out of the situation
