Masterlist

°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•

Jin: Honestly, I could see this kind of personality being a pretty good match for him! He has his quieter and introverted sides, so he’d understand your need/preference towards quiet or alone time, and I think he’d have a lot of fun trying to crack your cool outer appearance with his goofy humor.

Yoongi: He’s a bit of a black cat personality himself, so I think you’d be able to understand each other really well! You could both be your most snarky and sarcastic versions of yourselves, without fear of the other person misunderstanding you, and knowing how to find your secret soft sides. 

Hobi: The golden retriever boyfriend that every black cat needs, lol! Like he’s besties with Yoongi, so you know he’s well suited with this sort of personality. I feel like y’all would have full conversations through eyes squints/rolls/etc, lol.

Namjoon: I think he’d get along really well with a black cat personality(imo, he gives goofy tabby vibes, so I think you’d be more alike than he’d realize at first, lol) He’d respect your need for your own space and independence, but he’s also ready to be there whenever you need more attention and support.

Jimin: I think you two would bicker a lot, but it’s almost like a love language for y’all, lol! His naturally sassy attitude would match with your sarcastic humor really well, and although he’s quite affectionate, he would understand your need for having space and time to yourself, making the times when you’re more open and vulnerable with him all the more special.

Taehyung: Tae I think would struggle the most initially with understanding your needs, as he’s a very physically affectionate person. Once y’all find that balance tho, you would work really well together. Similar to how Hobi brings out the brighter side of Yoongi’s personality, Tae would bring out yours, finding ways to draw you into his silliness sometimes and make you laugh. 

Jungkook: I think he would get along quite well with this personality type. He definitely understands the need for having alone time and personal space, though he might struggle a bit in finding the right ways to communicate his own needs to you without feeling clingy. Once you find that balance tho, it’s a match made in heaven.

Headcanons for how the killers' would react to you trying to bite them! (I've never sent one of these before so I hope it's what you're looking for ^^)

All good! Thank you so much for the request!

I obviously won’t do such a handful of killers since I’m only writing for 4 specific killers right now, but I’ll add an additional one I thought would be interesting. I hope this is what you were looking for 🥲 I tried-

Singularity

Hux hates being touched, especially by a human. So safe to say he will NOT appreciate such actions

“Keep your human slobber off”

Would advise you to step away, but he’s already using his left claw to grip onto your face and push you away from him

“Do not attempt that again” Consent and notice is important to him mkay

More attempts will result in you being kicked out of the Huxlee Caracas III; if you’re his S/O at this point he’s still keeping you in his vicinity

“Are you trying to make me angry?” Calm down there Wesker

He doesn’t entirely mind it if given notice and he wants to get just a tad bit more intimate

Dredge

It doesn’t really perturb Druanee, it mostly is just perplexed and curious. 

It hopes its amalgamation of flesh is to your taste, if this is why you’re doing this. Druanee knows you can’t eat it, but it’s amusing seeing such things

With an unexpected nonchalance, it allows biting to continue if you want it to

Just don’t be surprised if something from the void reaches out and gives you a nibble of its own. Druanee totally does not know about that. 

This will happen a lot more; another conversation about boundaries unless you’re into the surprise love bites 

Blight

Definitely finds it strange when it happens, because you will manage to get a bite in seeing as he might be distracted doing something

Makes him wonder if you're seeking attention...

Talbot just shrugs it off and doesn't think very much about it. Until you do it again. Now he's really setting his pen down and looks at you

He can't talk so you're getting a look...can't really tell what emotion is present on there. He tries to communicate that it's not the best idea to bite him (but he is secretly curious to see what would happen if- Talbot No)

Definitely do not bite him. Not a good idea. Nope.

Besides his scientific tendencies I think he might actually like getting bitten

Deathslinger

Will stop what's he's doing and turn to you. Pretty astonished honestly

"Why are we biting, sweetheart?"

Wouldn't really be bothered by it and would instead find it endearing, just tell him first please. He's probably working with some tools and can't have ya getting hurt

Actually would enjoy receiving surprise bites; unless...you're someone random than what the-

Does appreciate if you kiss where you give him little bites~

Don't expect any bites from him however, at least...not at random like you might be doing

Xenomorph (take this one as you will)

If you’re trying to give Big Chap a bite, it means you’ve grown a close enough bond to be physically allowed that close to them

However, strong emphasis on bite. They’re not exactly going to allow it. At first

Before you can land any kind of nibble, Big Chap will bite you first

They tease you, playfully scare you with false bites. Until the day they finally decide to chomp 

Just like Druanee you will get many surprise (love) bites (which may hurt a bit more than what Druanee gives). Eventually though, they will soften their bites 

Sometimes the inner mouth is what will give the bites, those are more like nibbles and can be considered much more affectionate

You will be allowed to give the your own bites at some, because Big Chap will expect the favor to be returned (what a hypocrite)

Fun fact: The Xenomorph in DBD is obviously from the first ALIEN movie and is named Big Chap. Although I typically call Xenos by she/her pronouns (it's a joke but they all have potential to be a Queen) I went with something more neutral because the name implies something male…trans Xeno? Idk I just really like ALIEN

can u do aaravos x reader hcs of them when they get into a fight and then make up afterwards

like ofc aaravos gets really scary when he's angry but i feel like he'd be the one to immediately apologize if he goes too far

and if he gets really pouty then reader does cute and silly things to cheer him up

eeee i got this req last night and i was so excited to write it!!!! i love my star boy ♥️

🥀Cw: some angst (with comfort), aaravos is Bad At Feelings™️, arguing, aaravos sucks at communicating somtimes smh, he also has attatchment issues

fights with aaravos dont happen often, but when they do they can get nasty

he can get petty sometimes, and is also very stubborn. it can be hard to change his mind, and he can sometimes get offended, thinking that u dont trust him or that u think hes incapable

it will usually start off as something small, like for example ur worried ab him overworking himself

aaravos will jump to conclusions and blow it out of proportion, he'll think that ur losing faith in him and that ur going to leave him

tbh hes his own worst enemy cuz his fear of losing u just makes him act nasty and cruel during fights which only pushes u away

during the heat of the moment, aaravos might say some things he doesnt mean

he can be pretty scary when angry, hes like a cornered animal and gets defensive over anything

afterwards, he will feel esp bad

if he made u cry, the guilt will be eating at him for hours

aaravos will sit silently beside u and be going over what to say, but when he opens his mouth he just gets really anxious. after fights and when ur really upset with him are one of the only times u will ever see him unsure, normally hes always so calculating and put together but he is not good at apologizing

he will try his hardest to apologize tho

hes a firm believer of the "dont go to sleep angry" rule and will talk to u as soon as hes calm

once aaravos isnt angry, hes pretty levelheaded and mature when communicating ab an argument u two had

but only if he was in the wrong

if U were wrong, he will pout and be bratty ab it

hes too clingy to ignore u, but will literally be hugging u cuz hes scared u'll leave while pouting and side eying u while saying hes angry (he isnt, hes just a little bitch)

if he was wrong, he'll dote on u and be very sweet and gentle for the next few days

the worst thing u can do is ignore him, aaravos loves attention, ESPECIALLY ur attention and u ignoring him lets him know that he fucked up bad

if u were wrong, he will want to be pampered and will wait for u to apologize on ur own time

depending on whether or not ur a hot-headed person, arguments can last for as short as a few minutes to lasting a few days of the both of u being petty

after any argument, no matter how small or who was right or wrong, aaravos always ends up being clingy and needy

hes afraid u'll leave, he doesnt want to be alone again and doesnt want to lose u

however he will poke fun at u cuz hes just like that 🙄

"aww, is my little star upset? ur so cute when u pout my dear, how could i not tease u?"

aaravos could never get physical in fights, he sees that as a huge red flag

if u flinch in an argument, he immediately stops, there is nothing more important to him than making sure ur safe and that will break through any level of anger that he has

the idea of u being scared of him makes aaravos scared cuz, as previously stated, he is SO FUCKING AFRIAD OF LOSING U😭

if hes being a pouty little bitch after an argument, it's honestly so easy to cheer him up

how to cheer up a pouting aaravos:

1. cuddles 2. food 3. talking it out 4. playing with his hair 5. REASSURING HIM U ARENT LEAVING HIM

overall, aaravos overthinks things, and that leads to most of ur arguments but he will recognize when hes wrong and take responsibility. he can be difficult and downright irritating at times, but he tries his best to be a good person (elf???) for u and loves u unconditionally

the little bitch (affectionate) is constantly afraid that u'll leave him

PLSSS I LOVE HIM SM 😭 hes both very mature and immature and its so funny

[totalfknloser]

hey! Could you write something about Zakk dating an autistic girl? I'm an autistic person and I have a huge crush on Zakk and I love your writing so could you do some headcanons about it? I would really be very happy!! (sorry if something is written wrong, I don't speak English and I'm using Google translate 😫)

hiii! okay so i’m not autistic and i wanted to get like.. what it’s like to be autistic so i asked my friend (who’s autistic) about it and they told me about autism so i hope this is accurate to your experience with autism!!

I think that Zakk would honestly not give a shit if someone is autistic and not care for them if they didn’t mean much to them but considering you in this scenario are his lover i think that he would really try!!

also i might’ve written Zakk a little softer because i don’t think anyone is really sure of how he would act in a romantic relationship tbh but even if he isn’t nicer/softer/whatever to people with autism and other things like that i wanted to make him like a little out of character safe space to ppl with neurodivergent disorders for u if that’s what ur looking for cause tbh if he isn’t nicer then what would i write about?? him being normal?? that’s not nice LOL

also if you need me to focus on your experience then please don’t be afraid to tell me what your symptoms and experience is like and what your reactions are so i can write a more personalized version<3

⛧ overstimulation

• harmful stimming

I think if you gave Zakk some direction, he would be a little caught off guard at first but he would get the hang of it. he would try his hardest to distract you, like taking you somewhere else or doing whatever helps you calm down.

• running away

well according to my friend, he says RUN! RUN FOR YOU! because ppl r usually like “u have to be nice to people with autism” but he also says sometimes you need to be a little assertive in like situations like this so i think that Zakk would absolutely chase after your ass lol

• crying, screaming, etc

i think that Zakk would kind of catch onto this quicker than he would with others but if you need distance, he will do it. if you need affection, he will do it. if you need to be somewhere else, he will take you somewhere else.

• distress noises

he would probably understand if the sounds you make sound i guess distressed enough? if they didn’t he would be confused but with some communication he would get it and help u out <33

⛧ communication

• signs and symbols

Zakk would prolly pick up on things like communication cards, hand signs, etc pretty fast!!

• distance/affection

Zakk is totally fine with distance honestly!! i think he would be perfectly cool with affection as well!!! i believe that Zakk would leave you alone physically unless you asked him to be there with you!!

shut downs/melt downs (yes i’m aware they are not the same i’m just bunching them together lol)

• nonverbal

Zakk would be confused but if you can communicate with cards or symbols then he would get it pretty quickly. i think that if you didn’t communicate at all he would probably just leave you alone but keep an eye on you.

• needing rest/space

as i said, Zakk is cool with distance!

• needing touch

if you touched Zakk in a more affectionate way (like a hug, etc) he would understand but not touch you like full on (not sexually i just mean on full cuddles) unless you gave him a signal that that’s what you want. if you asked him, he would still understand and tend to your needs in both scenarios <3

⛧ general autism stuff

• social battery

i think that Zakk would have a pretty good experience with things similar to a social battery so he would pick up the signs and leave you be!!

• fidgets

Zakk would get it. i just feel like he would. I think that Zakk would prolly fidget with things himself but i mean more like his jewelry, hair, skin, etc (no i’m definitely not projecting!!/sarc) i think that if you really asked him to he would go out and get u some LOL

• special interests

I think he would be confused on why you’re so fixated on something but over time with being educated how autism works then that confusion level would go down.

• happy stims/just stims in general

Zakk would be confused!! i stim myself (i’m neurodivergent but i’m not autistic) and i think that Zakk would never really understand it lol but he wouldn’t judge u bc he loves u

• headphones/something noise cancelling

if it really helped you and you couldn’t get it on your own, Zakk would get some for you tbh!!

60 Questions aboyt Valztcryl

(His image for refrence)

Not enough people follow me to get people to ask these and I want to infodump so congrats you haven't the need to work for it!

[1] What first impression do they typically make? Are they likeable from the get go, or take time to grow on people?

He is very Charasmatic so people do tend to like him, maybe it is mainly because they have some fear of him because he has a look about him. But he tries to be likable and he has the skill to do so.

[2] How does their social personality differ from how they act when they’re alone?

When he is in a socual setting he is very outgoing and talkative, generally plesant to talk with even if a bit odd.

Alone or with someone he is close with, he is quiet and doesn't speak much. He enjoys comfortable silence. He might say something here or there but never a full conversation unless the other wants one.

[3] What emotion is the hardest for them to deal with?

He has trouble controlling his anger, he is very aggressive even if it is only passive. He tries to keep collected to keep up appearances but when alone he might break a few things.

[4] How physically and emotionally affectionate they are?

He is very physically affectionate with small touches or anything like that. He can be emotionally affectionate at times. He doesn't find it easy to come up with encouraging words. One of his many flaws it would seem, his charisma can never help him with coming up with good words but making his words sound better. He understands that when he is close to someone it is better to just be there sometimes rather than speak.

[5] Are they good at keeping secrets?

If you tell him something he likely will put it in the back of his mind and not think of it a whole lot until it is perdenant. He wouldn't tell a soul anyways, he doesn't see a need to.

[6] How direct are they in conversations, do they speak in hints and riddles or bluntly say what they think?

He is brutally honest more than not, If need be he will speak around the subject and hint at it. Most times he is straight foreward and he gets away with it a lot of times.

[8] How open they are about their true feelings, both positive and negative?

Honestly it depends if he doesn't know you he won't. He will be passive aggressive towards you, until you prove his pre concieved notion about you wrong. Very difficult to do but it has happened a few times.

If he knows you he will communicate unless he feels he is being ridiculous and he attempts to get over it. It doesn't always work and he will bring it up when he thinks it is a good time.

[9] What is their love language?

Gift giving, he likes giving people things to show he cares. An example of this is him gifting Astarion art of himself so he can see his face. Maybe through someone elses eyes but himself none the less. He also enjoys physical affection and Acts of Service he finds it easier than words. "A sincere action can say more than a hundred pretty words." as he would say. He prefers to show his affection.

[10] How quickly do they fall for someone?

It can be hard for him to get close to someone. If there is something, small or big that just clicks for him he will fall head over heels for someone. It hasn't happened but once.

[11] What are small things that make them happy?

He enjoys attention quite a bit. He likes being waited on hand and foot it makes him feel special and he believes he deserves no less.

[12] How high is their self-esteem?

Very high, he believes he is as good as a god.

He quite literally is born of a god but that is not the point.

[13] What kind of sense of humor do they have, if any?

A terrible one, very innapropriate. He thinks tragedy is hilarious but he does pretend to laugh at other things.

[14] What does it take to make them laugh, and what does their laugh sound like?

A terribly innapropriately timed joke. His laugh isn't "cute" he cackles loudly and it is kind of difficult to make him laugh and not just chuckle. Some think it is a great laugh others think it is grating and innapropriate. Honestly I cannot understand how hw makes people like him.

[15] How do they act around people they don't like?

He is passive aggressive so he ignores them and scoffs. He might say an insult or two that many wouldn't pick up on cause he says it so politely.

[16] Do they easily rely on others to help them out, or prefer doing everything themselves?

He loves it when people do things for him, he expects no less from people. He activley demands it of most with a few exceptions. With thpse few exceptions he might beg a bit and do some convincing but it isn't required.

[17] What is their biggest struggle that no one around them is able to understand or believe?

His hunger for roasted dwarf, nobody gets it like he does...It is his favorite.

[18] Do they ever have to hide their identity and for what reason?

He hides his identity of Bhaalspawn even if he denied his father he will always have his blood. He doesn't associate with him and he has always hated him more than anything. Years of suffering was caused by him and he never wants people to associate him with Bhaal. He likes Jaheira but he finds it annoying when she mentions him being a Bhaalspawn but everyone has their flaws.

[19] If they could change one thing about their past, what would they change?

He wouldn't have vhanged a thing, he may have suffered but where is is now after the suffering is the happiest he has ever been. He may not remember his time as a Bhaalspawn but it is for the better he doesn't want to remember. He does miss hsi memories he had with his mother. He knows of her but he cannot remember her face only the red she clothed herself in. But he knows a sacrifice must be made and nothing he could do with her memory could bring her back.

[20] When they’re sad or upset, do they need company or some time alone?

It depends he enjoys the company of very few when he is upset. He prefers to be alpne to process things and then when he does he enjoys the support of others.

[21] When they’re sick, would they want others to visit and take care of them, or they would rather prefer not to be seen at not their best?

Only by Astarion or a servant would he allow himself to be seen while sick. He doesn't like to be seen at his worst but he likes to be taken care of and given comfort.

[22] Do they have nightmares, and if yes, when did they start and what are they usually about?

Sometimes he does when he is particularly stressed about his father. He will have a nightmare or two about being forced to go back into his old ways.

[23] What was the worst, the darkest period of their life that they have been through?

When he lost control of himself the first time after he believed he was free. In the Druids Circle he dedicated himself to while trying to rid himself of his father he lost control and killed his mentor and he left out of fear and ran back to his fathers clutch. Everything went downhill from there. He was trapped in his own body comstantly and feared that he would have to die for his fathers bidding. He never felt so hopeless and weak.

[24] How hard it is for them to not allow their emotions to cloud their judgement?

[25] Do they have fears and phobias, and if they do, do they usually keep it to themselves or talk about it openly?

He fears going back to his old ways and the ocean. He doesn't enjoy being at the mercy of a wrathful goddess, He already has been at the mercy of a Wrathful god. He has only mentioned it a couple times, Once to Halsin and once to Astarion. Nobody else knows about his fear of the Sea. Everyone can guess his fear of who he is when he lost control.

[26] Do they have any physical or mental ilness, how do they handle it and how open they are about it?

He has BPD and PSTD, he doesn't even know it. He can't be open about something he doesn't know. He doesn't attempt to hide his symptoms unless it makes him look weak.

[27] Do they have any scars, how did they get them and how do they feel about them?

He has one on each hand from when he tried to shield his face from Orin which proved useless. He likes them it makes him feel like a "Martyr" in some way, A divine sacrifice that they failed to be rid of. It reminds him that he cannot be killed so easily. It reminds him of his second chance and without them he wouldn't be where he is now

[28] What is something that they will never be able to forgive?

Betrayl from his father and all three of the Abosloutes "Chosen". He feels strong hatered for all three. A much more bittersweet hatered for Orin.

[29] How do they deal with loss, stress and anger?

He feels all three very strongly, they drive him to his goals but he does get overwhelmed by them and breaks down.

[30] What are their most healthy and most unhealthy coping mechanisms?

Reflection and alone time in nature is his most healthy way of coping and getting revenge and lashing out is his most unhealthy way of coping.

[31] How hard it is for them to own up to their mistakes and wrongdoings?

He doesn't like it, He is not used to owning up to things whem they are his fault. He is used to being able to blame his father or his Urge but now he can't and it is very difficult for him to do.

[32] Is there something they've done in the past that they deeply regret till this day?

Killing his mentor, She was very important to him and filled a void in his spirit when his mother was assasinated. He wishes he could take it back but there is nothing he can do so he has to live with it. The only way for him to make it up to her is to live by her teaching and teach them to others.

[33] What are one of their fondest and most treasured memories?

All of them he can remember, He doesn't take one for granted because he knows they can be gone in an instant.

[36] Do they own items that have sentimental value?

Before being in a commited relationship? Yes, he loved the attention he got. He thrived on it. After getting into a commited relationship? Not really, it mainly makes him laugh because their advances and attempts are hopeless and he thinks desperation is funny.

[mocchii-writes]

Yayy i hope its ok i ask for a matchup then, for squid game season 2 and a man preferably...

My pronouns r he/she. I consider myself approachable and easy to talk to, honestly even if I'm not fond of talking to random people I can manage a conversation well enough and smoothly, I can talk like I've known you forever and I think I'm incredibly polite when first talking to me but when you get to know me I'm kind of an asshole. I have a strong sense of humor, my humor being a lot of banter and almost insults. I'm very touchy too, not in a weird way. I mean, like whenever I'm laughing I'll slap or grab whoever I'm closest to....I have the tendency to be painfully petty, I'll hold a mean grudge but won't do much beyond talking shit (I love talking shit soo much) to my friends. I am pretty affectionate.... I love to say I love you. I'm compliant more often than not, I'll do what's asked of me most of the time, I like helping!...

For hobbies and stuff, I love art. Drawing is my biggest hobby, and it has been for years and years…! I'm also really into listening to music, mainly rock and metal. Baking/cooking is nice too (I work in a bakery...!).. I wouldn't go and say its a hobby but I like smoking WEEED

I don’t have any preferences for partners, if anything I don’t like anyone too obnoxious despite being a little bit myself, I’d like someone I can communicate with especially since my last ex didn’t do as much but she was cray in general so watever.. I’d like someone who’s ok with touch, not affection necessarily but like i said whenever I'm laughing I'll slap or grab whoever I'm closest to etc etc

I love piercings a lot! I have my ears pierced, septum, eyebrow, navel :D. I love maintaining my nails, like one of the weirdest quirks of mine imo if you knew me... I like keeping my nails long and painting them, will actually devastate me if my nail breaks, I like wearing baggy clothes I dress masculinely

Hope thats enough or good enough.... thank u! love u have a good day/niightt!! ^_^

I am so sorry that this took so long to post, it got lost in my drafts. I do have a matchup for you, though! (Don't mind the GIF, he just looked really silly)

Your matchup is...

Nam-gyu

Now, I know this is a kind of unpopular one, and I totally wasn't sure if you would've preffered Thanos, but you mentioned you didn't like obnoxious people (No offense to him lmao), and the weed comment was just screaming at me sooo...

Nam-gyu has similar social skills to you, being pretty polite to strangers (when he's alone) but he is totally meaner and more comfotrable when you get to know him. He could also be considered "obnoxious", but I'm a believer that he only acts like that because of Thanos. He is probably much less of an asshole when there's nobody he's trying to impress but I'll leave that to you to decide on.

We know he's very comfotrable with physical touch, and initiates it himself as well. He might not have the best communication skils, but Nam-gyu really wants to try to have a healthy relationship, even though he can hardly get himself to admit it. You may have to guide him a bit, but he's overall a decent partner.

He loves your piercings and your sense of style. He has a similar style, and wears baggy pants fs. He also loves smoking weed with you obv, (I don't smoke sorry lol) but he'll probably discourage you from trying any of the hard drugs he does, but there's a chance he'll offer something every once in a while.

[practically-an-x-man]

5, 6, 18, 24, 27, 32 for Eris and Rick?

Thank you so much!! These two have such an interesting dynamic, I swear...

Ship Ask Game - The Basics

5. Do they argue often? If so, what do they argue about?

Literally all the time - it's just an occupational hazard from spending any amount of time around Eris. Most of the time, it's teeny-tiny arguments that don't have any bearing on anything, more like teasing than anything else, and those are just brushed aside. Sometimes there's a big one, like the one we see in Dead of Night, but those are honestly pretty rare - those little arguments might look contrarian or even outright hostile to an outside observer, but they actually serve as a good method of communication for the two of them, and stopping the little annoyances before they grow into genuine fights.

6. How do they make up/apologize after an argument?

Like I said before, the little ones just kind of vanish without needing to be dwelt on. For the bigger arguments, the ones that really mean something, Rick is always the one to try and patch things. Eris is more the type to just let things go after a while - they argue, she learns to distance herself before it grows somewhere irreparable, and then she just comes back having let it go entirely.

After a while he learns that Rick was brought up on actual, verbal apologies and such, and they do their best with that for his sake, but it still doesn't usually happen. Eris' apologies are mainly just their loyalty to him (knowing they can fight and Rick wouldn't be hurt despite their violent nature, and knowing she'll come back eventually instead of just moving on), and Rick understands that, and that's good enough.

18. How do they care for each other when one of them is wounded/sick?

Rick tended to overreact in the early days, before he really learned just how strong Eris' healing factor is, but eventually learned to back off a bit (they heal, and he could see that the attention was starting to annoy them). When something's really bad and they need more time to recover, he's a very attentive partner. Most of the physical wounds heal up quickly, and it just becomes the matter of energy recovery, so he mainly helps out by cooking for them and encouraging them to sleep (like we see in Broken Pieces)

When Rick gets hurt, genuinely hurt... well, that's one of the few times we see Eris' softer side. In the moment, they are far from soft - they will do anything to keep him alive, and their desperation is far from a soft thing. But in the aftermath, once he's stable, she's much more openly affectionate. The injuries are a reminder that Rick isn't immortal, and the time he has with him is valuable.

24. How do their personalities affect their relationship? Do their characteristics compliment each other, or clash often?

Bit of both. Their personalities compliment each other in that they're both similar people at the core of it, and they have an understanding of each other that really drives their relationship through any rough times they have. They're far from a picturesque romantic couple, but they're intensely loyal to each other, and there are a lot of things that really don't need to be said in their relationship.

Personality-wise, they're definitely different people - Eris is contrarian and Rick is affectionate, Eris has very few morals and Rick has very strong morals, and their views on romance are very different - but that core understanding of one another is really what keeps their relationship strong at the end of the day.

27. How do they say “I love you” non-verbally?

Rick is obviously the more openly-affectionate one, and he's definitely the type to sneak quick kisses or little affectionate touches to show that he loves them. He also shows his love through food, cooking meals for Eris when they're injured or even just having breakfast ready for them when they wake up. There are a lot of ways Rick says "I love you" - it used to be an incentive for Eris to see this as their home, to prove that they could be comfortable here and stick around, but now it's just that he enjoys taking care of them.

Eris' affection is a lot more subtle, but it's definitely there when you know to look. There's a lot of this in Whatever Keeps You Around, and the other softer scenes we get with them. Most of it is in proving how much they really know Rick - always remembering his favorite brand of cookies, his preferred scent of deodorant, how he takes his coffee - and just implementing these into their life without being asked to. Or, like we see in Whatever Keeps You Around, the way she'll tease and bicker about something (like making butter just to try it), but will play along at the end of the day. And at the end of the day or after a tough mission, when the two of them are finally alone, he'll cuddle up real close...

32. Do either of them drink? If so, who’s the lightweight, and how does their partner care for them?

Eris does drink, but it doesn't do much - even in a lull, their healing factor will burn off the alcohol before they get so much as a buzz, and bars are usually so chaotic that the ambient conflict in the room makes their healing factor even stronger. He honestly gets more of a buzz standing next to a bar brawl than any alcohol he could consume.

Rick also drinks, and generally knows his limits. He's no lightweight, either, so it's very rare that Eris has ever seen him genuinely drunk (especially to the point that he'd need help taking care of himself). If he does get there, though, Eris will help him without complaint. It's all fairly... procedural, I guess? I mean, they'll get him home, help him change, get him to drink some water, the usual stuff, she knows what to do. And it's definitely accompanied by a lot of teasing, both during and after the whole ordeal, but the fact is that he wouldn't hesitate to take care of him, and wouldn't let Rick act a fool of himself.

[ matchmaking... ]

@stars-tonight : [ match report ready ]

your match is…

✦ Akaashi Keiji

-> [ Definitely a slow-burn type of relationship at first. ] You’re both quite introverted and distant, perfectly content with your own company. A long time goes by before you two even start to talk to each other despite passing each other often in the halls or even sharing classes together, and then it takes a bit for you two to warm up enough to actually have substantial conversations. Your friendliness during one-on-one interactions definitely helps, though. Once you two start to open up to each other, it’s like a switch was flipped - and suddenly, it doesn’t feel exhausting socializing with each other, and you’re often finding time to meet up to spend time together.

-> [ Overthinkers! ] There are pros and cons when it comes to both of you having this tendency. On the one hand, you both heavily relate to each other on this. The sort of paralysis that comes with one’s mind running a mile a minute, often in circles, is not a pleasant experience; it’s comforting, in a way, to know that you share this struggle with your partner. On the other hand… overthinking can all too easily lead to miscommunications. Even when each of you are aware the other tends to overthink, it still can hinder communication, especially given the fact that you tend to be conflict-averse. Thankfully, Akaashi is mature enough to gently but insistently approach topics that need to be discussed without making you want to escape.

-> [ Unamused when you start to deflect too much when it comes to your personal problems, trying to joke around and procrastinate. ] You’re here trying to laugh things off and Akaashi is standing there, arms crossed, eyebrow quirked as he listens to your excuses. He’s sympathetic to an extent and logically understands that this is how you cope, but he is very much the type to sit you down and be like “seriously, you need to deal with this.” Tough love, perhaps, but he really does try to be gentle with it. You know it’s proof that he cares, but you still get a bit pouty when he insists you quit pushing off necessary tasks.

-> [ Akaashi would absolutely be down for chill dates. ] Coffee and bookstore dates are one of his favorites! The occasional adventurous, busy date is fine with him, too, but he’d much rather have relaxing, lowkey dates. That way, he can focus on you and your conversations, enjoying your presence in a calm setting. He’d be intrigued about doing escape rooms, probably never having done one before you bring it up. Those are definitely fun, a way for him to really use his brain - and he’s pretty good at them! But don’t worry, he’s not the type to totally take over the room and do everything himself; he relies on your careful consideration to analyze the room for things he may have missed.

-> [ He’d be happy to play volleyball with you casually. ] He does think it’s a shame that your injuries prevent you from playing as much as you had in the past, but if you ever want to hit the ball back and forth he’d love to indulge you. It’s nice, honestly - he takes being on the Fukurodani volleyball team seriously, but he still likes more casual practice and playing. Chances are, Bokuto would eventually learn of your (volleyball dates–) fun little sessions and decide to invite himself (and perhaps others in the team) so you guys have a fuller team to play with. Akaashi will sometimes have to scold them and make sure they don’t get too rough and rowdy, though, depending on how you’re feeling that day.

-> [ Not the most verbally affectionate… Definitely an “actions speaks louder than words” type of guy. ] Akaashi is just a tad shy with physical touch at first, becoming flustered the first few times you grab him into a tight hug or insist on cuddling. He does warm up to it after some time, though, and he actually really likes linking pinkies with you or holding your hand while you’re out together. He does appreciate that you’re so willing to dedicate time to spend with him, and makes sure that he always makes it worth your while. His words of affirmation are soft, subtle, but still present nonetheless - many times, this will come in the form of texts he sends in the early hours of the morning when he first wakes up, or notes that he leaves in your bag for you to inevitably find during class when pulling out your books.

-> [ Akaashi would baby your cats. ] You tease him for spoiling them, and he insists that he isn’t - but he totally is. If you ever need a cat sitter for whatever reason, just let him know! He’s very responsible and you’d likely have no issues trusting him to take care of them. In a similar vein, he’d really like going to cat cafés with you (so long as they aren’t too busy, at least; he wants the attention from the furry little friends). He knows that you struggle going out and doing things unless others are with you, but he’s researched new locations and is ready to head out whenever you feel like it.

[honeylikesyanderes]

yandere alphabet- yves falor

Affection: How do they show their love and affection? How intense would it get?

yves' major love languages are quality time and words of affirmation, so that's how he prefers to show love, however, he is always willing to do things for you, which also means he enjoys acts of service. yves may also give you gifts and show you physical affection if that is your preferred love language. he's here to please you darling

Blood: How messy are they willing to get when it comes to their darling?

yves prefers to keep things fairly clean when it comes to committing murder; but he doesn't mind being messy, especially if he has a message to pass to other love rivals (i.e. you're HIS.)

Cruelty: How would they treat their darling once abducted? Would they mock them?

yves isn't the type to kidnap, and there's a high probability that you will go with him willingly, because its very likely that you'll fall for him. regardless, yves would never mock or harm his darling. he honestly just wants to take care of you. and he will for as long as you let him.

Darling: Aside from abduction, would they do anything against their darling’s will?

nope. yves is very very pro-consent. unless its a situation where you're in immediate danger, he'll avoid doing anything against your will (unless you're into things like that)

Exposed: How much of their heart do they bare to their darling? How vulnerable are they when it comes to their darling?

yves is extremely guarded at first, as he's not the type to lay all his cards on the table, but as time progresses and he sees you truly love him for him, amd not cause he's a good therapist/listener, he'll most def be more open.

Fight: How would they feel if their darling fought back?

he wouldn't be too bothered tbh. he's very open minded and understanding (he's a therapist duh?) and he understands that being yandere isn't normal, and he completely understands if you have a negative reaction to his yandere tendencies.

Game: Is this a game to them? How much would they enjoy watching their darling try to escape?

it is most def not a game to him. he just wants to love you.

Hell: What would be their darling’s worst experience with them?

the worst thing yves could probably do is isolate you from your loved ones by telling them that you are mentally incapable of taking care of yourself.

or by convincing them that you guys are secretly in love and that you're in denial ab it. and yves is very convincing, so most people will believe him.

Ideals: What kind of future do they have in mind for/with their darling?

yves honestly just wants a simple life with you. going to work, coming home to you and the kids. he doesn't mind you working as well, he's pretty open-minded so anything you'd prefer is something he's willing to take into consideration.

Jealousy: Do they get jealous? Do they lash out or find a way to cope?

he most definitely gets jealous, but he's not super volatile about it (towards you ofc). he's the type that's suspicious of anyone; be it male, female or enby. he knows you're attractive and special and that other people can see that; so he's always observant to make sure you dont get taken away. however, if he feels like you were encouraging/permitting someone to flirt with you, he'll get a bit upset and will have a long convo with you to sort things out.

Kisses: How do they act around or with their darling?

he's very affectionate and lovey dovey. he loves to spend time with you and you could say he's the clingy type, but not too much. he loves to kiss and make out. he's willing to have sex, if that's something you want to. like i said earlier, he's very big on consent, so if you're not in the mood to be touched or interacted with, he'll give you your space and interact with you indirectly or from a distance. he's also particularly observant if his darling is neurodivergent, because they may not be necessarily able to communicate exactly what they need all the time.

Love letters: How would they go about courting or approaching their darling?

yves lovessssss writing love letters!! and he will continue to do so, even if you guys get married. he's a very sweet and caring yandere, so that really shines through during the courting period. he doesn't really have the tendency to kidnap or abduct his darling; because it's more likely for them to want to go with him. he's the type of guy that your friends tell you to give a chance because 'he's a good man with a good job' when you tell them ab your doubts.

note: yves would do anything to make you fall in love with him, even if it means changing part of his personality to what you prefer. he's not willing to alter much of his looks tho.

Mask: Are their true colors drastically different from the way they act around everyone else?

yes and no.

its not necessarily like yves is hiding his true colours. he's just the type that doesn't like to reveal much about himself. he's naturally secretive and only says what he needs to. he's just a bit different with his darling because he loves you and sees you as a safe space. plus he's kind of secretive with you as well. this will significantly decrease as your relationship matures tho.

Naughty: How would they punish their darling?

mostly isolation tbh. he does have a bit of dad energy so he may scold you. regardless, this rarely happens because he's pretty understanding towards you and your behaviours. and you rarely act up anyways so its all good.

<basically there's very little you could do that yves would consider as 'acting up' or 'misbehaving'>

Oppression: How many rights would they take away from their darling?

not much. its just that almost everything you do will be supervised. that's pretty much it.

Patience: How patient are they with their darling?

extremely patient. yves is probably the most patient yandere oc i have rn; which is saying a lot because they're all patient af.

Quit: If their darling dies, leaves, or successfully escapes, would they ever be able to move on?

yves would probably never move on. before you there was none, and after you, there will be none.

i see yves as a one darling yandere, that would prefer to stay alone and like adopt a kid or something, rather than have another darling.

he'd never be able to recover from the anguish of a lost darling.

that's why he'll never let it happen.

Regret: Would they ever feel guilty about abducting their darling? Would they ever let their darling go?

no and no. ♡

yves believes what he's doing is for the greater good, and for your complete happiness. this world doesn't understand you, but he does. that's why you should be with just him. he's a safe space for you. no one else would ever get you the way he does. plus its not like you're restricted to just a room or just a house. you're allowed to go out and stuff, you're just supervised 99% of the time.

so please stay darling.

Stigma: What brought about this side of them (childhood, curiosity, etc)?

its a matter of nature vs nurture. everyone in the falor family is indeed yandere; so is it a genetic thing? or is it because of how he was raised? nobody really knows tbh.

Tears: How do they feel about seeing their darling scream, cry, and/or isolate themselves?

in the honeylikesyanderes universe, darlings dont really act like this.

and in yves case, even if they do, he's manipulative enough to get them to stop. plus he's a therapist. your therapist. so he's going to reassure you, and validate your feelings, and let you know he understands. but its manipulation to get you to calm down and warm up to him even more.

Unique: Would they do anything different from the classic yandere?

yves is nonviolent towards his darling and would never intentionally hurt them. he's soft and sweet but he also has an unpredictable side with gives him a bit of edge. i think compared to most typical yanderes, he's very soft, and he adores his partner very much, rather than just seeing them as property.

Vice: What weakness can their darling exploit in order to escape?

none. you cant manipulate a master manipulator. you cant really predict his next move. and his has a back up plan for almost everything.

just be a sweet thing and let him love you mkay?

Wit’s end: Would they ever hurt their darling?

physical pain? no

a tiny bit of mental anguish when you're acting up once in a while? maybe

yves will avoid it as much as possible, but if he absolutely needs to, he will.

Xoanon: How much would they revere or worship their darling? To what length would they go to win their darling over?

yves respects his darling as a person, and tries his best to make that evident. yves would most definitely go the extra mile to win his darling over and to please you. he knows he's not perfect; but he can be perfect for you. he wants you to like him. he needs you to love him.

yves loves his darling and holds them in high regard, but he doesn't absolutely worship them the way his brother does.

Yearn: How long do they pine after their darling before they snap?

it depends tbh.

yves does not mind playing the long game, and he might end up waiting for years before making his move.

he just needs enough time for him to form a solid plan. yves most probably wont swoop in and start publicly pining after his darling until he has a fool-proof plan; which can take days, months or years, depending on the complexity of the situation.

Zenith: Would they ever break their darling?

i dont think so.

yves' darling wouldn't necessarily break, because there's nothing to break there. they gradually just learn to fall in line. i think at most, if they really dislike yves, they'll eventually succumb to stockholm syndrome.

[i hope you all enjoyed!! likes and reblogs are appreciated]

[natasha-in-space]

Are Chaewon and Rika like an established couple? Sorry if that's a weird question, haha (⌒_⌒;)

Not a weird question at all!! Any and all questions about my OC's are more than welcome, I'll happily ramble about anything.

And the short answer is: no.

The longer answer is: it's complicated. Do they ever get together as a fully established couple in my canon? No, they do not. Maybe years down the line after Mint Eye is destroyed and they both find peace within themselves and atone for their crimes... But it's highly unlikely, honestly. Their ending is not a happy one.

Chaewon has been infatuated with Rika since their first meeting, that infatuation gradually blossoming into genuine love and appreciation for her as a person once they become friends. Chaewon loves her romantically, but she also loves her as a dear friend. She never really tries shooting her shot. For all she knows, Rika is perfectly happy with Jihyun, and she is no competition to him when it comes to Rika's heart. She's not as generous on words, nor is she all that smart to keep up with all the philosophical talk they do. So, she stays pining. Is that healthy? No. But Chaewon, at the time of meeting Rika, is a pretty isolated individual. In a way, she feels like Rika is one of the only good things left in her life.

That is to say... the seeds for turning her love into something more twisted and unhealthy were always there. But that doesn't mean they wouldn't work out if things were different.

Is that love mutual from Rika's side? In truth, yes. But she never gets to process that or admit that to herself. Not fully, anyway. She only fully comes to terms with her love for Chaewon as a fully romantic one when the Mint Eye is destroyed and she sees Chaewon be put at risk for her sake. Before it all went wrong, she genuinely viewed Chaewon as a good friend. In time, she even became her closest friend, after Jihyun and Mika, of course. She still kept a noticeable distance between them. Too terrified to show her 'real self' to anyone but V.

In a way, they both viewed each other as better than the other. And that kept them from ever actually opening up to each other fully. Rika thought of Chaewon as a strong-willed, determined woman that she couldn't help but admire. She wished she could be strong like her, without being cruel.

Once Chaewon follows Rika and becomes a part of Mint Eye and her personal bodyguard? Things get even more complicated. They never put a label on what they have. Never refer to each other as lovers, or partners. Everyone in Magenta knows that Chaewon has a special connection to their Savior, as she trusts her with her safety wholeheartedly and always listens to her input. But that's very much it. They are not affectionate in front of other believers. Not physically nor emotionally. Chaewon shows her devotion through direct actions, and Rika does so by letting Chaewon make her own choices freely. It's subtle. The only one who ever notices it is Ray and Saeran.

In Mint Eye, Chaewon becomes Rika's rock that she relies on. And Rika becomes Chaewon justification for everything she does. While before they were two people with mutual attraction that wasn't acted upon due to poor communication, now they become two codependent people using each other to feel better about themselves. Now it's definitely unhealthy.

Not that either of them cares.

Behind closed doors, they are affectionate. They hold hands, caress one another, they even get intimate with one another on more than one occasion. With Chaewon, Rika gets the feeling of control and adoration she craves. While Chaewon gets to indulge in fantasies she never got to have before that.

But she's still not V. And Rika's obsession with V never actually goes away or takes second place.

And Chaewon doesn't challenge her on that either, for fear of losing her affection. That's why she grows to resent V as much as she does. While before she used to bitterly accept the fact that Jihyun was simply better than her, not it feels like he is actively taking Rika away from her. Her hatred of V is a reflection of her own insecurities about not being good enough.

Their relationship is ALSO the reason Rika grows to resent Natasha in turn. She sees herself in Natasha. An alternative 'what if', if only she wasn't too scared of being open and vulnerable with another person.

While Rika's and Chaewon's relationship is a gradual change from a relatively healthy beginning into an unhealthy and codependent one, Natasha's and Ray's/Saeran's relationship is a change from an unhealthy situation into a genuine connection built on mutual trust and understanding. They are parallel to each other.

Do they ever get to the 'I love you' stage? Chaewon whispers those words to Rika many times, often while they are laying in bed together and, for a moment, it feels like it's only the two of them in the entire world. But Rika only manages to say it back when she begs Chaewon to escape right before Magenta (and Mint Eye as a whole) gets dismantled. In a way, in the end, Rika chooses to be selfless out of her love for Chaewon. Asking her to escape and leave her, because she wants her to have a better life. And Chaewon chooses to be selfish and stay by Rika's side through it all. Something she seemingly has always done, but never fully let herself admit fully.

They do get to express their true feelings to each other in the end, in a way.

They get separate after that, and they each have a journey of attunement and self-discovery ahead of them. Will they ever cross paths again and start anew? I genuinely don't know. It's left to interpretation, depending on the universe I'm working with :)

[unstableplague]

rating tf2 ships instead of doing English because writers block part 1: SCOUT!!

1. Scout/Pyro (Flashfire) - 10/10

honestly? love this ship. mwah mwah. I think these two would have a unique build up to a relationship. Scout being intimidated at first by Pyro (then realizing Pyro is actually pretty chill), and Pyro genuinely wanting to befriend Scout because he’s funny and pretty.

I see Pyro as being able to keep up with Scout’s hyperactive nature, but also being able to coax out a calmer side. Scout has trouble understanding his own emotions and expressing them (being very emotional and fearful of what others may think of him for that) and pyro is very patient and loving. They’re both chaotic, loving, expressive, and have a need to be understood and not disregarded by assumptions.

I see pyro as being very open to physical touch, but won’t actively initiate it. I think pyro would prefer quality time and acts of service. their main love language being gift giving and quality time. scout on the other hand I could see preferring quality time and physical touch (but having to be the one to initiate it), but would outwardly express words of affirmation and gifts.

Whenever I think of these two I think of their relationship being very soft. Yeah they’re chaotic and dangerous, but I can see them being very soft with one another. Scout talks a lot and Pyro listens. Pyro talks a lot and Scout listens. I think their relationship wouldn’t be established for a good while, until Scout one day just asks if they’re dating or not while they’re cuddling and watching some action movie.

I think they’d have stupid nicknames. Well on scout’s part, I don’t think pyro would make nicknames. Scout would still call them mumbles, chucklehead, and other stupid stuff, but he’d say it in a very affectionate way.

Pyro would definitely without thinking link their pinkies together when they’re near one another. It flusters Scout every single time, without fail. Scout uses flirts and pick up lines and Pyro is unaffected by them(though finds it hilarious when Scout trips over his words). If anything, they find scout’s attempts funny but prefer when he’s just being real and down to earth, rather than trying to “puff” himself up, and when he seeks out Pyro for comfort and touch. Whether it just be to hold hands or lean on.

2. Scout/Soldier (All American Offense/Batting Helmet) - 7/10

I’m kinda unsure how I feel about this ship!! I give it a high rating because i think it could be unique and these two would definitely be fun together. I’m not sure if I could ever see them being in an established romantic relationship, but I could see them being in a close relationship which isn’t exactly anything labeled.

Unlike flashfire I can see their relationship being very hyper rather than soft. They’re both reckless and loud which definitely leads to both of them making bad decisions which Spy or Demo have to get them out of. They’d definitely bond and strength their relationship over their love of adrenaline. Both, Soldier and Scout are so SO loving, and I definitely think they’d put their all into a relationship and both constantly try to impress the other. Especially on the battlefield, I can see them yelling for the other and going ‘did you see that?!’ Or ‘that was for you!!’ kinda thing. You kill one of them? Within seconds you’re killed by the other.

I do think their relationship would be a bit rocky at times due to miscommunication on both sides. Soldier and Scout tend to run into things without thinking, making plans on the go, and misinterpreting things. If they were to establish any sort of partnership they’d have to work on communicating. Both of them would have to work on not only their communication skills but also their emotional responses to things. Both of them are very prone to emotional outbursts/irritation which they’d have to work on.

However! It’s evident both mercs are so loving and aware of others emotions. I think in a relationship, Scout would stop making joking insults which Solly wouldn’t understand, and would ask Solly more questions about himself rather than his stories. Of course!! Scout and Soldier would 100% bond over stories of crushing people’s skulls, and be so hyped to hear about the other’s experiences. However the curiosity towards him as a person and his interests other than war I think would startle and slightly scare Soldier at first honestly.

Overall I think they’re relationship would be very fluid and interesting to work with. They’re love language would be far from conventional: wrestling/physical fighting(not out of anger), and not outwardly ‘romantic’ tendencies. I don’t think they’d be the type to be touchy or have flowery words. On their own I think both of them could be physical and loud with their affection but together I think it would be more of a casual thing. Maybe an affectionate pet name thrown in an offhand sentence or remark, or a gentle guidance towards a different decision. I can’t see them full on cuddling, but rather being near one another and leaning on the other. At most maybe Scout putting his head in Solly’s lap or running his hand through Solly’s buzz cut.

I do think that as hyper as they’d be, they would have very sweet moments on ceasefire days. Whether it be resting/sleeping in, cooking, or just talking and playing cards. I think with simple daily activities the more soft “intimate” side would be drawn forward. I don’t think they’d ever refer to their relationship as romantic, but I don’t think they’d stop someone from assuming they’re dating, y’know?

3. Scout/Demoman (Hop Scotch) - 10/10

Similar to All American Offense, I don’t think these two would put a label on their relationship. I think it would more be like they’re aware of how loving the other is and how strong their bond is as a friendship, and just acknowledge they love each other; whether it be fully platonic or not.

Demo with his desire for touch and Scout with flippant touch adversity and desire, I think they would definitely be one of the more sweeter duo and outwardly affectionate. They’d be more willing to show physical affection in front of others, like hugging, kissing, cuddling, those kinda things.

Scout would be so excited to learn about Demo’s culture and it would be oh so sweet. Demo is patient and more than happy to share his Scottish culture with any s/o he has. He shares cultural dishes while Scout shares dishes his ma used to make. For both Scout and Demo family means a lot, which is something I think would definitely strengthen their bond, along with both of them being openly emotional and willing to share their issues with one another (of course that would take time).

Demo willingly hearing out Scout without making him feel stupid and Scout listening to Demo’s turmoil and validating his feelings. I definitely think their relationship would work since I imagine Demo actively reminding Scout that he sees him as an equal and doesn’t look down on him at all. Which helps since Scout is very self conscious. In return, Demo is equally self conscious and struggles with self image, which Scout counteracts by constant verbal affection and being able to talk Demo through it. I think they’re relationship would lean very heavily into verbal and physical affection. Demo finds it funny whenever Scout hypes him up. Scout in term gets really embarrassed when Demo says anything sweet to him, but also determined to show off.

I see Demo as being open to physical contact and craving it, but always makes it obvious and asks if he can touch Scout before doing so, something Scout appreciates immensely. That being said, I do think that with Demo, Scout would be very more physically affectionate compared to some of the other ships. I just see them being a very go with the flow relationship which leaves Scout feeling more than comfortable with touch when it comes to Demo. Anyway they’re really cute and sweet and both deserve love and happiness and I wanna see more of them.

4. Scout/Medic (Blunt Trauma/Quick Fix) - 10/10

Hands down, I adore this duo. They’re absolutely adorable and love mediscout shippers. I went over their duo a little bit in a few posts ago, but I love the idea of both of them being equally fascinated by the other.

Scout always being the first to go see Doc and volunteering for experiments. Medic being enthralled by how healthy Scout is and finding him beautiful, both inside and out. I think this duo has a lot of potential, especially with metaphors and love that goes deeper than what is associated with the term. Their relationship could be very poetic. I do think these two would start off with a very awkward relationship, and this sense of awkwardness never really leaves it which adds to their charm as a duo.

I think it would start with Scout developing a bit of a puppy crush, finding Medic handsome and amazing in terms of skill. Scout being outwardly very awkward and loving (constantly following medic to infodump and talk about anything and everything just to get a convo going) and getting flustered by Medic who could just be standing there. Medic in turn I think would pick up on the little crush scout has and find it endearing but not think much of it. More than willing to talk to Scout about his ideas and thoughts, but never thinking he’d regard Scout in a romantic manner. I don’t think Medic would realize he had feelings for Scout until someone pointed it out. Engie says to him how he gets a fond look in his eyes and his entire demeanor just softens. Which gets Medic thinking and he just goes ‘oh shit’. Once the realization is there, I think Doc would become equally as or even more awkward and nervous than Scout. He’d still ask scout for help with certain things or lion for him to make conversation, but he’d fumble with his words more and be more mindful/careful of how he handles the other in surgery.

Anyway they’d probably establish their relationship through the help of others, which leaves Scout asking bluntly and awkwardly if they could establish something and Medic agreeing. From then on it’d be a bit more smooth sailing. One of the only issues I could see them running into a lot of times could be fear for the other. Medic fearing Scout getting so hurt that even he couldn’t heal him, or Scout somehow hating or failing out of love. Scout on the other hand would fear Medic dying rather than getting hurt and the idea of doc ever finding him annoying rather than endearing.

Both of them having issues with touch, some days loving it and other days hating it, i think physical aspects of a relationship like any sort of touch would be very special and a huge sign of trust. Whether it be Medic studying Scout’s heart or Scout gently rubbing under Medic’s eyes.

They would have cute nicknames for one another and I think their relationship would be very sweet and poetic.

Overall I love their dynamic and want more soft stuff of them. (Plus the idea of the man who outsmarted the devil being with god’s gift is SO hilarious to me.)

5. Scout/Sniper (Speeding Bullet) - 7.5/10

Honestly? I think they’re cute but similar to earlier ships mentioned I don’t think these two would ever put a label on their relationship. It’s not my favorite but I’m not against it, the art of them is adorable.

I’ve mentioned before how I believe their friendship is finding freedom and normalcy in the other which is something that would stay in any relationship they have. I don’t think they’d change anything about the way they interact with one another even if they were officially dating. It would still be very laid back and loose in a way.

I don’t know if they’d do very romantic things, maybe a few chaste kisses and laying on the other as a weighted blanket, but otherwise i can’t see them having a very touchy relationship. I think in terms of romance their bond would be: feeling so much love and fondness for another person and being okay with it and not wanting to change the relationship beyond what it is.

They find freedom in the other and just kinda go with it, y’know? I can see them more being a QPR than a standard romantic relationship.

For the last few:

Scout/Engie and Scout/Heavy

Personally I can’t see either relationship being romantic or anything other than platonic. I think scout sees heavy as an older brother and Heavy views scout as a younger brother, and it being unable to go beyond that.

On the other hand for engie, I just personally can’t see engie with many people. I’ve always regarded engie as aroace, which while he could have a relationship, I can’t see him actively seeking or desiring one. Plus I’ve mentioned before how I think engie and scout would have a rather rocky-unsure relationship which would need heavy communication.

Overall!! Scout is so loving and deserves love!!

I’ll do the next merc later!!!

[wheezerblue]

(TLKOE) Thrull Headcanons!!!! (when you rizz him up; for my fellow self-shippers)

He's one selfless motherfucker! He'd take a bullet for you twelve-times over; if it meant his beloved could live eternally. He doesn't give a shit about the consequences; if it means anyone he deems worthy is safe. May the gods help us all; if anyone in any dimension tried to harm you.

2. He's a big boy; capable of handling you as if you were a feather, and he knows it!

Thrull stands at a daunting 11.5 feet; in height. Assuming you're within the range of 5'3 - 5'9; he's a little over twice your height. He takes full advantage of this; he often picks you up and puts you over his shoulder, if he's feeling fussy. However; he does know humans are fragile (in comparison to his species), and takes great care not to harm you. If he does; he seeks medical care, and is extremely apologetic.

3. The way his species courts their partners is... gruesome; to say the least.

The process starts out genuinely wholesome! They get to know their potential suitor/suitress, and start some friendly banter! They make suggestive statements in a humorous manner; unless that makes their love-interest uncomfortable. Sexual Intercourse is majorly frowned upon; unless a pair has been together for 5+ Tyrannian years (50+ earth-years), or optimally, married. However; this is where things get bloody. If more than one person is interested in an individual; they usually fight to the death. The winner desecrates the corpse of their foe; until they find a pretty enough piece to bring to their love-interest. They see this as a display of strength and undying love; however, a human who is mentally stable would think they're a fucking maniac.

Thrull would wonder what he did wrong, and after a LONG silence treatment; you would explain that slaughtering someone is NOT the way to your heart.

4. TLKOE: The Monster Dimension (otherwise known as Tyrannus)

He brought you to his homeworld; he knew Earth (or in TLKOE; it's ruins) didn't deserve someone as magnificent as you. After (safely; optimally with your permission) bringing you to Tyrannus; his homeworld, he'd allow you to get used to it for a year. At minimum, as he knows moving dimensions is stressful. He'd assist you in learning magic, and Tyrannian means of combat. I'd imagine they'd communicate in what humans call 'Old Norse'; he'd teach you the language, so you don't need to depend on him as much, as he doesn't want you to feel helpless. He knows you were strong on earth; he wants you to be strong here, as well.

5. At-Home (Family-life Part A)

When he's not out; doing his job (Monster-Hunting), he's honestly the best partner anyone could ask for! When you two are sleeping; he instinctively brings you to his chest, and curls up. Definitely the big spoon. Being the little spoon would be uncomfortable; for the both of you. Due to his extensive knowledge on many languages; he'd likely whisper sweet nothings when you both rest; in your language, and his. Very physically affectionate. It takes longer for heat to get to the skin for his species; due to major veins & stuff being deeper under the skin and muscle. So; he fucking loves a good cuddle session; especially during colder times! Please tell him in advance, when you have to leave the house; because if you don't, he will follow your scent like a fucking animal 🧑‍🦯

6. Opinion on Children (Family-life Part B)

Whether they're biological, or even adopted, he likes the thought of raising children with you. When he was 28 (in Tyrannian years; 280 Earth-years); he once had a family, and his previous wife + and 4 out of his 5 kids were brutally murdered. His only surviving child is Skaelka (look at their personalities; them fuckers are related somehow). He desperately wants a family again; he fights back tears with all his might, when someone mentions his deceased family. However; you happened to be his dead wife reincarnated.

(if you're able to/want to) When you get knocked up, and he finds out; he's fucking estatic! However; the *ahem* 'genetic material' is potent enough to put twins in there; at least. So, you're in for one hell of a ride!!

[ryttu3k]

Tavias and his thoughts on the companions, and other assorted characters. CW for the Dark Urge's whole storyline tbh.

Most Important People

Astarion: Thinking Thoughts About The L Word but neither have actually said it yet. He feels safe and comfortable around him and honestly he's quite happy with the way their relationship is going right now (cuddling and physical closeness and non-sexual intimacy). There's this strong desire to keep him safe, but he also knows Astarion isn't to be coddled, and they're both slowly working out How To People after long periods of time belonging to someone else. He knows they're both going to have to navigate this relationship slowly, carefully, and with a lot of communication to get through their messy pasts and boatloads of trauma, but is absolutely willing to put in the work.

Gale: Gale gets magic in a way none of the others do, so they initially bonded over that (and Tavias teaching Gale his latent sorcerous abilities!), and their morals are fairly similar. He can understand why Gale wants power because goddamn the rush of Knowing Shit is good, feeling safe is good, all that! He understands that! He just… also knows the downsides of it fairly acutely, so he'll be doing all he can to try and convince Gale he's enough as he is without the crown, the same as he's trying to convince himself that he's enough as he is without being Daddy's Little Cult Leader. Genuinely feels bad that he doesn't reciprocate Gale's crush on him, and wouldn't want to offer casual sex because he knows it'd be more meaningful to Gale than it would be to him, but absolutely values him as a close friend.

Jaheira: She's his Mum now. He's reassured in her presence both by the fact that she's promised to stand with him so long as he's fighting the Urge, and the knowledge that she could kill him if it was necessary to protect the others. He also greatly looks up to her knowledge and advice, and secretly loves her snarky side. There's a lot of affectionate teasing there.

Withers: Grandpa :)

No but honestly, after That One Event, he just ends up hero-worshipping the guy - he looks up to Withers even more than he used to look up to Bhaal. Withers is the one who gave him his life back, who gave him freedom. Post-game, when Withers asks him to become his Chosen and work on eradicating the Dead Three and their cults, he agrees immediately, because he trusts him implicitly and wants to work with him. Even before That One Event, he thought Withers was fascinating and wanted to sit and listen to any stories he'd give; post-game, that's his Grandpa / Hero / Deity.

The Other Companions

Wyll: Likes and admires his positivity and confidence a lot, and definitely thinks Wyll makes a better leader than he does - he'll often defer to Wyll to make big decisions. Wants to fight Mizora in a pit, really bad. Sometimes feels a bit awkward around him because Wyll is such a Good-aligned person that Tavias feels like he might corrupt him a bit just by his presence, even though he knows cognitively that Wyll's done some pretty dark stuff too.

Karlach: Adores how much life she has, although he has trouble relating to her. Ironically, he'll actually start relating to her more after she breaks down after killing his ex Gortash, because he can't really understand how she's managed to stay optimistic even when so much is against her. He also knows that his past with Gortash makes things… a bit messy, even if he sees himself as a very different person now, so he feels a little awkward around her.

Shadowheart and Lae'zel: He relates to both in the sense that they were all raised in a terrifying cult XD;; So he's quite emotionally invested in all three of them being able to break away and choose their own paths, because fuck Bhaal, fuck Shar, and fuck Vlaakith, they're not pawns any more! As people, he does struggle to relate to them a bit - Shadowheart started off very snarky and closed-off, and she hasn't opened up to him as much as Astarion eventually did, so he still sees a bit of distance between them, and Lae'zel can be Harsh and Kind Of Scary, although he respects her a lot.

Halsin: He's cool. He can't even remotely relate but he likes the dude. Sees him kind of the Team Dad, albeit not as much as Jaheira is his Mum now - just in the sense that Halsin looks after them all, and is the oldest and wisest of the group. Feels a little sheepish about the fact that Halsin is attracted to him but Tavias just... doesn't reciprocate, lowkey considering hooking him up with Gale.

Okay so. That has changed somewhat!!

Minsc: Pending since they haven't met yet and I don't know what their interactions will be like, but I feel he'll like and respect him along the same lines as Jaheira, just not as intensely because Minsc hasn't been there as long and is more…….. Minsc-ish. He may also be somewhat terrified of Boo 8D

(Listen. The hamster knows things.)

Friendly Non-Companions

Scratch and Bite: They're his children now :) He particularly is fond of Bite (the owlbear cub) in the sense that he also thinks people smell tasty but also won't eat them :D

Isobel: Someone who needs to be protected. He knows from the sheer viciousness of his Urge that she's a genuinely good, sweet person, and is legitimately proud that he was able to fight his Urge enough to keep her safe.

Aylin: Absolutely fascinated by her. Like him, she's the child of a deity; unlike him, she's empowered by it and very much her own person instead of being a puppet of Selûne, like he would have ended up a puppet of Bhaal. Thinks she's badass and he loves how confident she is. He wouldn't mind having the ability to fly, either!

Volo: Thinks he's goddamn hilarious. Is also never going to trust him with an ice pick again, although on the other hand, seeing invisibility is pretty cool!

Arabella: So protective of her (both because she's a baby sorcerer, and because keeping her safe was one of the first times he was able to resist the Urge), and kind of wanted to teach her himself, but also knows he wouldn't be the best option. He'd do his best to watch out for her to the best of his ability, and I can see him basically being like, hey, if you ever want to chill for a bit, you can hang out with me. Little sister, basically.

Yenna: A sweet kid. Wouldn't want anything to happen to her, he just doesn't really have any particularly strong feelings about her as a person. She's A Kid To Be Kept Safe, and he's just not as interested in her as a person as he is with Arabella.

Devella: Doesn't know her very well, but he was very touched by her trust and encouragement after he revealed his background, and would happily help her out with a lot.

Negative and Complicated Emotions

The Emperor: Deep distrust. A part of him always suspected that he'd turn on them all if they didn't go along with him, and Tavias greatly resents how much he manipulated not just him, but all of them. Also he suspects the Emperor definitely knew who Tavias was and the fact that he kept that knowledge back frustrates him greatly.

Orpheus: Pretty intimidated by him. There's no actual liking there, and while he's happy to fight alongside him, he just doesn't feel much emotion over his ultimate fate.

Cazador, Mystra, Mizora, Zariel, Viconia, Vlaakith, Shar: It's on sight, bitch.

Ethel: She's hilarious but if she implies Astarion liked being a slave again he's going to turn her into a meat crime.

Ketheric: Never got to fully work it out because Ketheric died before Tavias started remembering stuff, but he Did Not Like him, and always got the impression that Ketheric looked down on him and Gortash. Which. He actually did. So, fair.

Sceleritas: Prior to his lobotomy, Tavias adored Sceleritas, the closest thing he had to an actually-present parent. While Bhaal's presence loomed large over Tavias' first decade in the cult, Sceleritas was actually there, and even after Bhaal returned in full, Sceleritas was still much more actually involved. He was encouraging, supportive, and enjoyed being murdered, what more would a baby Bhaalspawn want?

Post-lobotomy, of course, Sceleritas became a figure of fear. Tavias just wanted answers, and he wasn't getting them, and instead Sceleritas was urging him to do awful things, and it was all quite terrible. (For Sceleritas' part, he actually did recognise that his young master had changed irrevocably and was beginning to get quite sick of the soft boy he had become, and tbh was a little on the relieved side when Bhaal killed him for good!)

Orin: So messy. She hated him, and vice versa. She was his little sister. She was his rival. She was his best friend. She was an enemy. She was his partner in crime. She was an obstacle to be taken out. She was someone to protect. She was someone to kill. She was a more deserved candidate. She was his usurper. She tried to kill him. She saved his life. They had that very peculiar relationship where two young people in deeply fucked-up circumstances develop this permanent bond - they tried to kill each other more times than either could count, but they also would kill anyone who messed with the other. He wasn't at all surprised when Orin came to kill him, and after, he ended up feeling a weird form of gratitude that she had - she had, quite unintentionally, given him a second chance at life and being a normal person. He feels guilty about having to kill her for the rest of his life, and would have given a lot for her to have another chance, too, but also knows she was just... too far gone. Yeah, messy.

Sarevok: Pure. Unadulterated. Loathing. He's never hated anyone so much as he's hated his 'big brother', and honestly, the feeling was pretty mutual. Aside from a massive case of the icks from a) the circumstances of Orin's conception, b) the fact that he pitted Orin, Helena, and Tavias against each other to try to do the same again, and so c) he spent the better part of fifteen years trying to avoid Big Brother's attempts to knock him up, he knows Sarevok has always resented Tavias for being more 'pure' than he was and for his higher position in the cult, and believes that Sarevok is a dusty, washed-up old pervert who should go take a long walk off a short pier. In short, absolutely no love whatsoever between them.

Gortash: The first person he was ever in love with. He saw them as equals, partners in crime, friends. He could see a future with Gortash that didn't involve Bhaal, and that scared the shit out of him. If Gortash had said, hey, look, what if we ditched this whole Absolute plot and our gods and just rule Baldur's Gate and Faerûn in its own right together, he would have seriously considered saying yes.

Obviously, post-lobotomy it's pretty different. He still can't stop the immediate physical response of his body upon seeing him in the Colony of, "That's my lover", but he also knows cognitively that This Is An Enemy, and by the time Gortash reveals their past together, he's already put Gortash in the category of Enemy That Must Be Stopped. So there's a lot of conflicted feelings there. A part of him would love for Gortash to end his plans; he also knows he wouldn't be, well, Gortash if he did. Another part wants to throw away everything and join him, maybe with Astarion as the third holder of the Netherstones, but also refuses to do that because he's no longer that person. Another part is just horrified at the evils Gortash has committed, especially now he's friends with Karlach, while also feeling guilt about the fact that he's done the same, if not worse.

He's still going to kill Gortash, but he's going to hate doing it, even if it won't emotionally destroy him as much as killing Orin will.

And last but definitely not least:

Bhaal: There's more or less three phases of Tavias' feelings about Bhaal. First, from ages 11-21, from killing his foster parents and being taken in by the cult, to Bhaal's return - Bhaal was a distant figure that Tavias was being taught to revere. If Tavias was very good and was a good little murderer and proto-cult leader, his real father would return, and maybe! he'd even love him! A distant and kind of scary figure, but also one to look up to, one to work towards, one to try to make proud.

Bhaal returns when Tavias is 21, and Tavias promptly loses his goddamn mind. Not only do his violent urges become the Urge, as in Bhaal actually speaking in his mind and occasionally taking over, leaving periods of dissociation, but he's named Chosen of a deity who is very much right there, able to enact punishment if he acts out, or to dispense with rewards if he does well. Tavias just wants to be loved! He wants Bhaal to be proud of him! So he absolutely throws himself into being The Best Dang Bhaalspawn in Baldur's Gate, if not all of Toril, in the hope that Bhaal will love and be proud of him. And he does! He shows his approval! He trusts Tavias to lead his cult! He encourages the Absolute plan Tavias came up with! He's winning at Being The Best Bhaalspawn, something that is both normal to want and possible to achieve! He's really doing it!! He's giddy and delighted and that's his Dad!!

Aaaand then Orin sticks a knife in his brain and Tavias' memories - and desire to Be The Best Bhaalspawn - go bye-bye. When he wakes up again, he has no idea who Bhaal is; when he starts hearing about this God of Murder, his first reaction is fear, because it's always been underneath it all. Dad's scary! He's redirected his desire to be loved and accepted towards his companions, and what's left for Bhaal is the terror that was always there. When he learns who and what he is, that fear intensifies, because now he can actually put a name to those Urges that killed Alfira and threatened innocents like Isobel and people he loves like Astarion, and also knows that things won't end until he faces Bhaal personally.

Which. Is scary as fuck, because God of Murder and also his Dad.

For the last twenty years, he's lived for Bhaal. Who is he, without him? That's going to be the next big question he'll need to answer - the most important one of all.

[forever-yours-simdate]

ooo, can I ask!! for a sfw alphabet... for cupid?? is that allowed ┴┬┴|･ω･)

Asks for Cupid are allowed! Same goes for the rest of the side characters ;>

A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)

Fairly affectionate! More affectionate than average I'd say. Mostly because he's generally pretty amicable.

Very causal, hugs as greetings, does little things and gets gifts for people he likes when the occasion strikes. They're not grandiose, but they're genuine.

B = Best friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?)

A really good friend. He's a joy to be with, and takes good care of the people around him, even if they're strangers. Great at giving advice, and is there if you ever need him, and isn't judgemental at all. Even when he's serious he balances it out with his laid back nature, and is never stern in a scary way.

Honestly you could befriend him in any number of ways, but most likely through having mutual friends, or meeting him at a party.

C = Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)

Will never say no to cuddles, unless they're from total strangers (and it's not easy to be strangers with him). Mostly cuddles by just being molded into a shape by the people cuddling him. Likes being sandwiched between people, or just having his arm around someone's shoulders. If it's a one-on-one cuddle with a s/o, he likes leaning on and wrapping himself around them, feeling their shape and warmth.

D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)

Does want to! Honestly, ideally, if not with a partner, he's definitely the type to settle down in a house shared with friends.

Good at cooking, gets lazy with daily cleaning unless it's his kitchen. Even if everything's put away and orderly, when he eventually gets to it, he lets dust collect on his shelves and crumbs collect on the ground. It's a good thing he really only stays at home to sleep or study, so his house doesn't get too messy. Is better about cleaning immediately before and after throwing a party at his place.

E = Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)

Has had to break up with past partners, and usually is really nice and polite, well-communicative about it, and usually always wants to still be friends. It's usually mutual, anyways, but if his partner at the time is upset, he takes it seriously and respects that, even if it's unfortunate to him that he may be losing a friend.

If it's someone special... he wouldn't even dream of it!

F = Fiance(e) (How do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)

Wants to eventually get married, it's a dream for him!

Honestly he feels so rarely strongly enough about anyone, that he'd probably want to get married fairly quickly if someone is the one to him.

G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)

Doesn't really treat people as if they're fragile, but that doesn't mean he's insensitive. Can be a bit rougher, physically, when he's hyped up and excited, but generally is pretty languid.

H = Hugs (Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?)

Like hugs! Would give and accept hugs from anyone, even strangers. How they are depends on the person or occasion, but they're brief with a quick squeeze or pat.

I = I love you (How fast do they say the L-word?)

Says it pretty casually, and even uses the word "love" as a nickname. Says it slower, with purpose, when he means it though.

J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?)

Isn't really a jealous person, far too laid-back. If he does... he usually tries to "join in" on whatever time is being spent between his s/o and the person he's jealous of. Stays amicable, of course, but sort of... micromanages.

K = Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)

Really likes to hold his s/o's face when he kisses them, or just hugging or cuddling them, holding their hands, etc. Likes kisses on the mouth the most, they feel very romantic, but likes to be kissed and kiss anywhere and everywhere really. Loves all sort of kisses, loves them all.

L = Little ones (How are they around children?)

Pretty good. Usually gets put on child-caretaking duty during family gatherings, mostly because he actually engages with them. Doesn't like, baby talk kids. Kinda just is vibing with them but pays attention to them.

M = Morning (How are mornings spent with them?)

He's usually out until daybreak, so usually the morning is spent him eating breakfast and getting ready for a nap before class or going out again.

N = Night (How are nights spent with them?)

Down for Activities. Want to watch a movie? Sure! Want to go hang out with friends? Let's go! Want to go out n party? Hell yeah! Board game night? The more the merrier. As long as you're spending time with someone he's down for anything.

O = Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)

Doesn't really open up. Moreso because he doesn't really have anything to open up about?

The few things he feels complicated about, he keeps to himself because he can figure it out himself, and also doesn't really believe anyone can understand/empathize with his specific brand of problems.

P = Patience (How easily angered are they?)

Very, very patient. Most things don't annoy or anger him! That doesn't mean he doesn't get angry, but rather most of the time he reacts otherwise (incredulous, disappointed, frustrated) than angry. Is good about managing it, but there's only so much someone can take.

Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)

Generally remembers most details about people (but gets silly mix ups, or needs to be reminded/double check), but when it comes to his s/o he's especially dedicated to learning as much as he can, and it cements itself into his brain. Even stuff he's surprised he notices.

R = Remember (What is their favorite moment in your relationship?)

Probably some type of exchange of rings, whether they're engagement rings, wedding rings, or promise rings, or just an exchanging of matching accessories that kind of solidify the idea that the relationship is forever, meant to be, he'll be ecstatic, to a point that's kind of unusual to see for such a laid back person.

S = Security (How protective are they? How would they protect you? How would they like to be protected?)

Again, laid back. Tries to protect others by diffusing tension, or talking it out. He's good at pacifying people, and an even better mediator. Prefers not to get into fights, if at all possible, but can if necessary even if he doesn't like it. Thinks the whole "taking a bullet" thing is romantic.

T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)

Puts a ton of effort, kinda can get carried away and makes them grandiose and romantic, straight out of a movie. Tones it down over time but the overly romantic, tender atmosphere is still present. The type to make celebrations for every little thing.

U = Ugly (What would be some bad habits of theirs?)

Very much keeps himself busy to distract himself, and very much avoids being alone like that plague. Even if he just has to sit in a public place, he vastly prefers the companionship of strangers over being alone. Also the frequency he goes out drinking... pray for his liver.

V = Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)

While he's not self-obsessed like Max, he puts a lot of effort into his appearance and aesthetics. While he's the type that looks good even if he looks like a mess, he'll usually go into a bathroom to tidy himself up every so often throughout the day/night. Likes looking hot, and is proud of it.

W = Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you?)

While he was content being partner-less for life, if he ever meets his soulmate, he'll never want to let go.

X = Xtra (A random headcanon for them.)

Most of his tattoos and piercings were done by his friends. The only piercing he got done professionally is the one on his right nipple, because it's simply too risky to get that done at a hangout while buzzed.

Y = Yuck (What are some things they wouldn’t like, either in general or in a partner?)

Uhmmm doesn't work well with people who are very, very inflexible, grouchy and severe. It's mostly just awkward for him, who's default is to joke around and chill. He'll adjust accordingly, but it wouldn't be very fun to be with them.

Z = Zzz (What is a sleep habits of theirs?)

Takes naps frequently throughout the day. Sometimes falls asleep when he's with his friends and hanging out at one of their houses. Honestly sleeps at his friend's houses more frequently than his own.

Pierce and Branson with pre-relationship 1, general 10, and domestic 4?

THANK YOU FOR ASKING!!! <333

1.How did they first meet?

They were children(Bran was 12 and Pierce was 13-14ish), first of all, and their fathers were involved in some sort of business. They had met in Pierce's home, as Bran(well. Hariclea at the time), bored of waiting by her father's side, and in an unfamiliar environment where a language she didn't understand very well yet was spoken, went on her own to explore (and perhaps find some peace and quiet).

She stumbles upon Pierce, the youngest child of his father (and close in age to her, just a tad bit older). They didn't even speak that much with eachoter(because of the language barrier, I mean Halley knew some words in english but not a lot and Pierce was just very quiet around strangers), but they got along fairly well, finding other ways to communicate and ending up finding games to play. Pierce also probably showed off illustrations from books he owned.

10. What do they like best about each other?

Bran: one of the things that fascinated him about Pierce at first was how intelligent he was. Even if when they had just met, he seemed to know a lot of things and would answer Halley's questions no matter how dumb he worried they were, never made fun of their struggles with math for example. And again, he knew so many things! Taught them a lot about biology and physics and the like. He'll always be the most brilliant person that Branson's ever met.

But another thing they really like about him is how nice and sweet and patient he was with them, how much he cared and cares about his opinion. He was sort of the first person(after his siblings) to ever...care about what he wanted, who he really was(even if he himself didn't know who he was, at the time Pierce felt like his only friend and the only person who really made the effort to get to know them). Halley was the first to propose marriage when they were 16 and 18 respectively after [lore i haven't revealed yet] and Pierce asked them repeatedly if they were sure of it. Because he loved them so much, he wanted them to be sure, to be married to someone they really did love.

Pierce: From the first moment they met, Halley was an enigma. Strange and compelling and new and very hard to understand and unpredictable. The first thing they really liked about her was the mystery that she was.

But what I think he really likes about them, similar to Bran, is that she cares so much. Loves very deeply. How she always looks with so much love in her eyes at him. How she loved him so much she promised him they'd never let him be alone. And her creativity too, how she had always been so talented in the arts.

4. How many kids do they have, if any? What are they like as parents? What are the kids like?

LUCYYYYY (slightly old sketch of her)!!!!

Born pretty soon after they married(and like. not planned lol), they were both so anxious to become parents (especially so young) but they were excited too. She was named Lucia after Pierce's mom (that died very soon after his birth), Lucía, but everyone calls her Lucy. I dont have a set age for her I just kinda have an idea of how old she is during certain events

I think they're like good parents. Pierce is honestly really affectionate and loves teaching her things and bringing her to the Laboratory when they're doing arguably safe experiments. He sucks at disciplining her however because he can't say no to her(especially when she's younger). How could he do that. He was absent for a few years of her childhood(and feels bad about it) and she's so tiny and cute and looks like his Halley far too much and and-

Bran loves her so much too but it is the parent that is better at saying no. it also loves singing her songs and bringing her to visit the orphanage it owns together where Lucy gets to play with the orphans, she's probably made a few friends among them.

Lucy's very creative and smart and loves asking questions and exploring, and is also very sweet.

Will they have more children? idk lol I wanna eventually get the Laconic Prodigy as a companion and I think one of them will def sorta adopt her in the future and they'll perhaps raise her together(idk yet, we'll see when I do manage to get the prodigy). I like to think that they look after urchins together and stuff (and pierce does go to the orphanage sometimes, to maybe teach the orphans). They're not married in the neath but not not married either.
