Hiii

questions 2 and 3 of any Free! pairing olus makorin 🤭

oohohohooo yes!!! thank you thank you!

2. Who’s the messiest? The cleanest?

makorin:

I think that, for the most part, both makoto and rin are relatively neat and tidy. rin being tidy is something we’ve had canonically confirmed, and he has that sort of vibe about him, especially for stuff like clothes, the kitchen, and the bathroom. makoto also seems like a relatively tidy person, but only because he used to be more of a mess as a kid. and not even like stuff everywhere, food left out, dirty laundry everywhere, etc. it’s more like things getting put in the wrong place, leaving something out to be noticed later but growing around its presence instead, and a big one for him would be buying food and then forgetting it’s in the fridge because he can’t see it and then his poor batch of apples have gone rotten.

when he’s especially stressed, it leads to piles of stuff stacking up, which, of course, makes him even more stressed and suddenly it’s “oh no I need to find this important paperwork but I have 7 different stacks it could be in!” and now there’s paper everywhere as he tries to search for it and he’s near tears about it.

in the end, I could see rin buying him sticky tabs and label makers and folders and shelves to keep everything organized. sometimes things still get misplaced, but rin would take it upon himself to just casually pick up something out of place and go “yo, makoto, where does this live?” and makoto always finds the right spot for it. his favorite thing is the little blank magnets rin bought for them to doodle their produce on to indicate when something’s in the fridge so they use it before it goes bad.

and for my second pairing let’s dooooo hmmm momotori!!

now, hear me out, I know people would want to say that chaotic momo would be the one who’s the mess, and while he’s not necessarily neat and tidy, ai is the one who’s a total mess. similar to when we had it confirmed that rin is very neat, it was confirmed that ai is not a neat person. he tries to be! but as the week goes on, more and more stuff stacks up. the weekends are his time to clean up, but it gets awful before then. he also definitely tries to justify it with “it’s an organized chaos!” which is more or less true, but also… not. like if he’s searching for something on his own, he can find it pretty easily and without stress. if someone else asks for something specific from his tower of shit? the room will be a mess before he finds what they’re asking for, and he’ll be an apologetic nervous wreck about it the whole time. he definitely needs someone to kick him into gear in order to get things cleaned up, and for him to stay on top of it. and he definitely needs someone to say to him “no I promise you can throw this instruction pamphlet out, we don’t even have this device anymore.”

sadly I do not think momo is entirely that person, but! momo makes cleaning fun! he might gripe about it if he’s asked to do it, but when he’s the one suggesting it, he ends up going on a tear and makes the whole place spotless. he’s probably messier by way of like. food. not to any gross levels, but he’s left out a few too many dirty plates before and got way too excited about the cockroaches that ai was trying to scold him for. he’s also definitely neat about his interests, like stag beetles and other insects!! any jars and terrariums he has are super well kept and don’t have any buildup of grime, and all their food and supplies are super organized so he can treat them with the best care possible! that especially makes ai happy, because while he doesn’t dislike pyunski, he definitely does not want loose critters climbing all over the place.

3. Who fixes the vehicle after a breakdown?

makorin:

this is kind of a tricky one! because I can totally see makoto taking initiative and working it out, but also, god bless him, he’s kind of a moron. like, he could fix it, but it would take him 10x longer than rin bc he’s looking at the manual 17 times and can’t tell what’s what and keeps second guessing himself and getting scared because “what if I make it worse! what if I make the car explode” and rin sighs and says “you’re not gonna make it explode, makoto.” I think rin being basically on his own in australia at a young age made it easy for him to take charge and fend for himself, so he knows how to wing it and figure things out as he goes along.

honestly, I’m very tickled by the idea of makoto being unable to do the easy stuff like change a tire or refilling the wiper fluid etc. like it’s meant to be easy so he psychs himself out about it! however, if it’s something trickier than that, as soon as he gets over the immediate panic of the car breaking down, he can sit there and work out some fairly complex stuff, at least enough to get it going until they get to a mechanic. rin, on the other hand, I think handles the simple stuff like a pro. changes tires super fast, changes the oil frequently, is always ready to jumpstart a battery, but if it’s even slightly more complicated than your average mishap, he gets that deep furrow between his eyebrows and starts grumbling as he reads the manual and curses and gets all pissed off and frustrated. that’s when makoto’s “I need to take care of you” instincts kick in and his nerves completely dissipate as he helps rin through it step by step, leaving rin gaping at him like “he can’t even change a tire how did he figure this out.”

and let’s just do momotori again bc they’re cute!!!

I honestly think that, on their own, the both of them would be hopeless. ai is too much of a worrywart and momo would get distracted and be like “wait what’s this!?” and ai has to slap his hands away like “no don’t touch it we’ll never figure out how to put the pieces back together!!” like, maybe momo would try to brute force things, and think he totally fixed it, but in a way that’s like “you got the right answer but the process was completely wrong” so they still have to take it in to the mechanic to do it properly or else it’s going to be even worse later. ai would probably be fine for simple things, but he even struggles with changing a tire, so he usually just calls for a tow lol.

in the end, if they do like a cross-country road trip (by momo’s insistence) and if they broke down, I could see momo being stubborn and insistent on figuring it out on his own, like a fun crazy puzzle, and ai humors him while the tow company is on speed dial on his phone, and they end up stuck on the side of the road for hours but at this point ai is in too deep and he has to let momo see this through to the end, because he thinks he might actually do it! and he does! and momo scoops ai up and swings him around and they yell and cheer and get funny looks from the few other drivers that whizz by but ai is proud of momo and neither of them care about the looks!!

[goutheswimqueen]

Momotori?

I WOULD DIE FOR THESE TWO OKAY YOU DONT UNDERSTAND. When Eternal Summer first started I was still trying very hard to be a monoshipper and I was like well I can’t ship momotori because I already ship rintori and I kind of only thought of them as a broship at first and then THAT SCENE HAPPENED where Momo overhears Ai talking to him when he thinks he’s asleep and I was like okay I can’t lie to myself anymore I’m a multishipper and ngl I fell in love with these two goobers. Their dynamic is so cute and they’re so adorable and I just!!! AAAHH!! Their mook is also my FAVORITE out of all the others, I fucking shit you not. Like the fact that Momo decided Ai was more important than his affection for Gou made me wanna cry cuz I wasn’t expecting him to value anyone more than he values Gou and I WILL NEVER GET OVER IT. Also those outfits? Fucking 11/10 I can’t get enoughhhh.

Sometimes I think about how Momo is going to do without Ai now that he’s graduated like fucc me. Kyoani give me a new season and give me a Momo episode with some spicy ANGST. Like I knowww he probably won’t be THAT upset considering this precious otter was the one who was like there’s no such thing as a last summer. I just really want Momo to have some form of angst please god he’s the only one who’s been safe from it. But obviously I’d be happy with him staying happy and wholesome bc honestly that’s more true to his character lmao.

Anyways, these two are my lifeblood and there isn’t enough love out there for them.

[caffernnn]

Rintori, momotori, seijuro/kou? :p

I think Rin and Nitori have an adorable dynamic, and there are a lot of fics I’ve read that include them being romantically involved (pre-ssk) that have been done well. They both support each other and I think that the way they’ve looked out for each other over the course of the show needs to be talked about more. I’m still sourin trash so this will always be brotp for me by default tho

This one!! The Samezuka gremlins!! I really like seeing interactions between these two in the show and in fics because they can really balance each other out. It’s similar to the dynamic reigisa has, with an optimistic spitfire and an overanalytical dreamer. As much as they might get on each other’s nerves there’s something about them that just works and I like seeing it explored, whether romantically or platonically. In regards to this vs rintori, I like seeing momotori romantically and Rin stepping in to be protective over Nitori like he often is with Kou 🥺

Kinda like with rintori, I’ve read fics with this pairing and I don’t feel too strongly about it one way or another. It is usually used as a background relationship in a lot of the fics I’ve seen it in and I guess I’d be interested to see it explored more, but it’s not too high up on the list. I put brotp on there because I absolutely love the idea of Kou getting close with Sei in a romantic isugou scenario, like he’d get over his jealousy and accept her as family. Imagine Rin and Sei taunting each other all the time while being protective over their sisters ahh 🥺🥺 Sei would absolutely piss Rin off by being super supportive and joking around with Kou all the time

Ask me about a ship and I’ll tell you...
