In this universe, we don’t do love triangles.
We do emotional battlefield tag-teams.
And in Tokoloshe, there are two Alpha energies pulling readers into very different types of fantasies:
Dej Desi — The Stoic Protector with a Tragic Core
Six Vagavaga — The Charismatic General with Hidden Depths
Both of them could ruin your peace.
But only one will ruin it exactly the way you like.
So… are you Team Six or Team Dej?
Let’s compare.
✧ Emotional Expression ✧
Dej:
Silent. Brooding. Trained to suffer in silence. He feels everything but says nothing unless absolutely necessary.
Will only tell you he loves you if he's bleeding out and the stars align.
Six:
Laughs too loud. Flirts too freely. Pretends he doesn’t care—but journal entries probably read like angsty poetry.
Will act like nothing phases him until you cry—then suddenly he’s showing up with tea, sarcasm, and a full emotional analysis.
Verdict:
Dej’s feelings are bottled up like ancestral wine. Rare. Intense.
Six? Spicy kombucha of vulnerability—sweet, sour, and healing if you survive it.
✧ Leadership Style ✧
Dej:
Leads with quiet authority. Unshakeable. Makes hard choices with zero applause.
Will carry everyone’s burdens and still apologise when he collapses.
Six:
Commanding and loud. Makes troops love him because he’s real. Will risk everything for his people—but never lets them see him fall.
Delegates with flair and always has a backup plan.
Verdict:
Dej is the steady root. Six is the wildfire.
Both will save your life. One will talk about it after.
✧ Romantic Vibe ✧
Dej:
Fated mate intensity. Stares that undress your soul.
Will claim you, bond with you, and never stop protecting you—even from himself.
Cuddles? Rare. But lethal when they happen.
Six:
Situationship king turned soulmate? He’ll flirt with the entire room and still look at you like you hung the stars.
Will make you laugh and rethink your entire view on love.
When he falls—it’s full-surrender, no-takebacks.
Verdict:
Dej is a scar across your chest.
Six is a tattoo behind your ear.
Choose your pain.
✧ Biggest Fear ✧
Dej:
Losing control. Failing the people he’s sworn to protect.
Letting love make him weak.
Six:
Letting someone see the real him—and choosing not to stay.
Becoming what his enemies believe he already is.
Verdict:
They both fear being known—and not being loved anyway.
That’s on Alpha-level vulnerability.
✧ Toxic Trait We Still Love ✧
Dej:
Will leave rather than break.
Gives “I’ll disappear for your safety” energy.
Six:
Pretends nothing matters.
Flirts to distract himself from feeling everything.
Verdict:
If you like your love language to be emotional withdrawal, go Dej.
If you like it in the form of smart-mouth affection and late-night brooding, go Six.
Final Scorecard:
Trait | Team Dej | Team Six |
Emotional Depth | ||
Physical Presence | ||
Communication | ||
Loyalty | ||
Ease of Relationship | ||
Fantasy Fulfilment | YES. | ALSO YES. |
So… Who Are You?
Team Dej?
You want depth. Stillness. The slow burn of a man who breaks for you alone. You’re here for trauma-bonded intimacy, sword-level loyalty, and the kind of love that makes you ache for centuries.
Team Six?
You crave wit, chaos, and emotional redemption arcs. You want banter, tension, vulnerability with a side of teeth. You’re here for the reformed player who turns into a soulmate by accident and then loves you like it was always the plan.
