While Maki isn’t super overt with his protectiveness, he’s definitely someone who will step up when you need him. If anyone disrespects you or if you’re in an uncomfortable situation, he’ll make sure to handle it.

——————

Maki is a man of action, not words. He might not always express how proud he is of you or how much he supports your goals, but he’ll show it in little ways. Whether it’s helping you with something you’re passionate about or just being there when you need to talk, Maki proves his loyalty and support through his actions, not his words.

——————

Don’t expect sugar-coated compliments from Maki. He’s straightforward and blunt with his opinions, If he doesn’t like something, he’s gonna say it—though he’ll usually do it in his typical dry, nonchalant tone. It’s not meant to hurt your feelings; he just doesn’t have time for anything less than the truth. But if he compliments you, it’s genuine.

——————

Public displays of affection aren’t really Maki’s style. He’s not the type to hold hands all the time or give you constant hugs, but when he does, it’s special and meaningful. He might show affection in quieter, subtler ways—like walking you home or letting you sit next to him while he’s doing something else. His love is more about companionship than constant physical touch.

——————

Maki respects your independence and doesn’t expect you to be attached to him at all times.

——————

When Maki plans dates, they’re more about the experience than the spectacle. He’s not going to plan extravagant, over-the-top dates, but you can expect low-key outings like grabbing a bite at your favorite spot, going to a game, or just watching a movie together at home.

——————

There’s a soft spot beneath the surface. He might surprise you with small but meaningful gestures, like bringing you your favorite snack when you're stressed or doing something considerate when you’re feeling down. He’s not big on grand romantic gestures, but he’s always thoughtful when it counts.
