#RIP to anyone who's targeted by a mission with Yusuke's brute strength and 'blast em to smithereens with a rocket launcher' Selphie

[sunny-explosions]

♡ for the fun of it

Send me a ♡ plus a ship and I'll tell you...

𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝙰𝚂𝙺𝙴𝙳 𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝙾𝚄𝚃 𝙵𝙸𝚁𝚂𝚃?

Selphie starts pestering him trying to hang out with him on a more consistent basis when she sees him around the halls, going so far as to invite him out for a quick trip to town, or to go see the newest small arcade settled in Balamb's back alleys. But Yusuke is the one who finally asks to make it a more romantic sort of outing rather than just as friends.

𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝚆𝙴𝙽𝚃 𝙸𝙽 𝙵𝙾𝚁 𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝙵𝙸𝚁𝚂𝚃 𝙺𝙸𝚂𝚂?

Selphie, but it was a spur of the moment, 'oh thank Hyne we didn't die' kind of thing. He didn't seem to mind, though.

𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝙶𝙸𝚅𝙴𝚂 𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝙾𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 𝙽𝙸𝙲𝙺𝙽𝙰𝙼𝙴𝚂?

They both do, although Yusuke usually sticks to one or two and Selphie uses practically every pet name under the sun.

𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝙲𝙾𝙾𝙺𝚂 𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝙼𝙴𝙰𝙻𝚂?

Yusuke; he's much better in the kitchen than she is.

𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝙷𝙰𝚂 𝙱𝙴𝚃𝚃𝙴𝚁 𝚃𝙰𝚂𝚃𝙴 𝙸𝙽 𝙼𝚄𝚂𝙸𝙲?

Kind of depends on what you mean by "better", but most likely Yusuke. Selphie's is all over the place - if she likes the beat or the melody of a song, she adds it to her playlists, no matter the genre. It's a mess.

𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝙷𝙾𝙶𝚂 𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝙱𝙴𝙳?

Selphie; despite her petite size, she can roll the blankets up into a burrito without even trying while deeply asleep.

𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝚆𝙰𝙺𝙴𝚂 𝚄𝙿 𝙵𝙸𝚁𝚂𝚃?

More often than not, Selphie, but sometimes Yusuke beats her to it.

𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝙼𝙰𝙺𝙴𝚂 𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝙲𝙾𝙵𝙵𝙴𝙴?

It's usually brewing by the time they're both up, but she often puts together their mugs so Yusuke can focus on cooking.

𝚆𝙷𝙾'𝚂 𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝙱𝙸𝙶 𝚂𝙿𝙾𝙾𝙽?

Yusuke, of course; Selphie's too tiny to even try.

𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝚂𝚃𝙰𝚈𝚂 𝚄𝙿 𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝙻𝙰𝚃𝙴𝚂𝚃?

I could see them both staying up late, but Selphie often gets too absorbed in typing away on her laptop and loses track of time.

𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝚁𝙴𝙰𝙲𝙷𝙴𝚂 𝙵𝙾𝚁 𝚆𝙷𝙾'𝚂 𝙷𝙰𝙽𝙳?

Selphie usually reaches first.

𝚆𝙷𝙾'𝚂 𝙰 𝙵𝙰𝙽 𝙾𝙵 𝙿𝙳𝙰?

Both to an extent, Selphie likes it a bit more. Yusuke prefers to give ass grabs/smacks.

𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝚂𝙽𝙾𝚁𝙴𝚂?

Yusuke, although he claims he doesn't.

𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝙶𝙴𝚃𝚂 𝙰𝙽𝙽𝙾𝚈𝙴𝙳 𝙼𝙾𝚁𝙴 𝙴𝙰𝚂𝙸𝙻𝚈?

They're both easy to rile up, but Yusuke's temper flares quicker.

𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝙸𝙽𝙸𝚃𝙸𝙰𝚃𝙴𝚂 𝚂𝙴𝚇?

Little bit of both, although Selphie does put a decent amount of effort into teasing him on purpose just to get him worked up.

𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝙰𝚂𝙺𝚂 𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝙵𝙾𝚁 𝚃𝙷𝙴𝙸𝚁 𝙷𝙰𝙽𝙳 𝙸𝙽 𝙼𝙰𝚁𝚁𝙸𝙰𝙶𝙴?

Selphie suggests it as a joke one day, brushing it of as nothing but a little jest. But Yusuke eventually takes her seriously and officially asks her.

𝙼𝚈 𝙼𝚄𝚂𝙴'𝚂 𝙵𝙰𝚅𝙾𝚁𝙸𝚃𝙴 𝙼𝙴𝙼𝙾𝚁𝚈 𝙾𝙵 𝚈𝙾𝚄𝚁𝚂:

"It might sound silly, but it's actually the first time I got to watch him train, when he was in peak physical condition. There's really something special about a guy who's got that much skill with his bare fists and sheer strength without relying on any junctioning! I was very impressed, and I still am!"

𝙰 𝚁𝙴𝙶𝚁𝙴𝚃 𝙼𝚈 𝙼𝚄𝚂𝙴 𝙷𝙰𝚂 𝚁𝙴𝙶𝙰𝚁𝙳𝙸𝙽𝙶 𝚈𝙾𝚄𝚁𝚂:

"That I believed the rumors for a while, I guess? Yusuke's actually a pretty decent guy, he's just got a short fuse and liked to speak with his fists more than anything else. But his reasons for doing so were good, even if the buzz in the hallways never thought about that side of things."

𝙸𝙵 𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚈 𝙲𝙾𝚄𝙻𝙳 𝙲𝙷𝙰𝙽𝙶𝙴 𝙾𝙽𝙴 𝚃𝙷𝙸𝙽𝙶:

"I'd probably wanna change how we met, if anything else. I'd heard of him before, but never seen him face to face until that one day in the training center. I would rather have had our first meeting be when we were both okay, but honestly, I don't mind how it started, either."

𝚃𝙷𝙴𝙸𝚁 𝙻𝙾𝚅𝙴 𝙻𝙰𝙽𝙶𝚄𝙰𝙶𝙴𝚂 𝙰𝙲𝙲𝙾𝚁𝙳𝙸𝙽𝙶 𝚃𝙾 𝙼𝚈 𝙼𝚄𝚂𝙴:

"Mine is definitely physical touch, I do like touching him and being touched by him. I think Yusuke's is more words of affirmation, and I do make sure I give him plenty!"
