#because he’s a picky little bastard (affectionate)

[telesilla]

He likes his new food!!!

Love languages (Gepard, Sampo, Jing Yuan, Blade)

After having intended to do this for more than 6 months now, I'm finally getting to love languages for some of our HSR boys.

CW: Sampo slander, general fluff, use of "honey" in Sampo's, references to Blade's issues

Gepard x gn!reader, Sampo x gn!reader , Jing Yuan x gn!reader, Blade x gn!reader

Gepard

Earnest, earnest Geppie

I think his primary love language is probably acts of service

His entire life is about doing things and that probably extends to you

He's not a verbally expressive person and unfortunately he doesn't have as much time to spend with you, but he's always doing stuff in the time he does have

helping with dishes, making you breakfast before he leaves

If you have long hair, he braids it before bed

It's subtle, but there's no way to mistake his love for you

Sampo

Bastard (/half affectionate)

As much as I think he'd be a very touchy person, always hanging off your shoulders, playing with your hair, that's not his primary love language

No, the guy is always giving you gift, and usually in the most obnoxious way possible I mean it's Sampo we're talking about

This wouldn't be a issue, but this is Sampo we're talking about. 90% of his gifts (like pretty much anything else in his life) was scammed, conned, or all but stolen from someone else

The conversation goes something like this:

Sampo: Honey, I got you a gift You: And who'd you con if off of? Sampo: You wound me! I'm a legitimate business man. You: give it back, Sampo Sampo: fine

Jing Yuan

Jing Yuan is 100% a physical contact person

Not that he doesn't want to spend time with you or give you things, he just has the vibe who always wants to be touching you

Arms around your waist with his on your shoulder, cuddles on the couch

Totally lets you come over when he's working overtime and lets you lay your head on his lap

And he totally turns into a cat when you run your fingers through his hair. Half lidden eyes, contented smile, you swear if he could purr, he would, so you make a point of doing so, especially after a long day

When he gets home, it's a toss up as to what position you're in, but if you're not in his arms with your head on his chest, then he's in your arms with his head on your lap or chest. Which happens just depends on the day, but as a general rule he's not picky

Blade

Physical contact and maybe acts of service

The guy is not fully sane, so he's not very good at the other love languages

So he tends to be very touchy and a little possessive. If someone is teasing you, expect him to come up behind you, wrap his arms around you and glare at whoever the offender is

He doesn't say as much, but your touch makes him feel a little more human. When you touch him, he doesn't feel the need for Kafka's compulsion power as much--which makes Kafka very happy. She seems to be pretty fond of Blade after all.

What he also doesn't say is that thinking about coming home to your arms and your gentle hands makes him want to survive a little bit more

But as much as he doesn't say it, you can see it in the soft smile when he sees you and the way he leans into your touch

So if every now and then you have to tell him to back off--and he usually does--then it's worth it seeing him improve because of your presence

[true-blue-sonic]

There’s something my cat does all the time that makes me and my parents laugh a lot and it’s the way he almost never purrs at anyone petting him except me. My mom will sometimes be hugging him or scratching him or smoothing out his fur for a whole minute without him reacting at all, but then I put a single hand on him and he almost instantly starts purring. Heck, sometimes he DOES A DOUBLE CHECK before he starts purring, JUST TO MAKE SURE that it’s my hand and not someone else’s. He’s such a fluffy little hater bastard boy I love him

That is hilarious, haha. Especially him double-checking that it is you who is petting him before he can start purring! He's a very picky boi when it comes to his provided attention, it is obvious <3

Silver would absolutely be the same way: I think that there are only very few people where he will express happiness or contentment about getting physical attention from. He doesn't seem to be such a touchy-feely person? I don't recall a single instance from the games wherein he, like... initiates physical contact himself. In '06, Amy grabbed his hand first (and also came flying at him for a hug and smacks him, lol), Blaze puts hers on his shoulder, and Elise is handed to him by the Duke, and that is just kind of... it, if I am not missing anything. Though it doesn't help that Rivals 1 and 2 and TSR don't have actual cutscenes, just stills with texts. But even so, no mention of touch is ever made there. In fact, this is the only thing that comes to my mind right now, from Stress Test!

And that is not an affectionate cuddle or a hug, that is an emergency happening that very second. So overall, I figure Silver is not a particularly cuddle-bug person, or at least that is never shown in the games. It might be deliberate, because the games do show e.g. Amy being a hugger, fist bumps between Sonic and Tails, etcetera. But of course, when going the Espilver route, I like to think he'll be more touchy-feely with Espio (or at least that is how I like writing them; I love physical contact). Not so much in public and not extremely elaborately, but they'll hug and cuddle and kiss at times. So when someone else tries to ruffle his quills or give him a hug Silver will just let it happen, but for Espio he'll be making little chirping hedgehogs purrs <3 <3 Espio meanwhile takes pride in the fact he is the only one Silver will do that for, haha!

*Right Taliesin, it's now or never*

Taliesin- Can't sleep? Or are we enjoying the view?

Calliope- Hmm..? No. Not really, too cloudy tonight. I thought I should come out here and keep watch, I've been struggling getting to sleep since... well. You know

Taliesin- Yes.. I've been meaning to talk to you about that. Can we talk? Umm.. Away from the cliff ledge? Watching you there is making me very nervous

Calliope- Ok... not like there's anything to see out here anyway

Calliope- So

Taliesin- So

...

Calliope- I'm so sorry about Rulindil. I don't know if he was a friend of yours or something more... but I am sorry I hurt you by killing him

Taliesin- Don't be. We lovers when I first came to Skyrim 3 years ago but he neither a friend nor was their great affection between us. He was quite the sadistic bastard really and the world is better off without him

Calliope- But? You've been so-

Taliesin- Rulindil... Rulindil was a high ranking Thalmor agent, my superior officer. The altmer are not incredibly romantic or affectionate people as you probably guessed. We still have needs though and most of us have some kind of arrangement with our colleagues to keep us entertained. He and I had such an arrangement for a brief time. He had picked me out nearly as soon as I left the dock to seduce. I'm not picky and spent the night with him. He bores of his bedfellows quickly however and when the boat came in with fresh recruits he moved onto his next toy and I moved onto other arrangements.

It was a while before I learned the true extent of his role with the Thalmor. He speciality was 'acquiring information' by any means necessary. He took a great deal of pride and pleasure in his work. At the time I deemed his actions an necessary evil and I certainly didn't envy him his job. But I never liked his methods. I don't have a taste for torture and luckily he preferred brute force rather than magic to get the job done so I didn't have to work with him much. I didn't take part but I knew what was going on. We all did. Just tried to ignore the screaming the best we could

Calliope- That's not your fault Tally-

Taliesin- No, but I was a part of it. Calliope you got caught. You PROMISED me. I wasn't there and you were caught. Do you know what would have happened to you if hadn't of killed Rulindil? Because I do. You've seen the scars on Kaidan's back. Trust me those soldiers had NOTHING on Rulindil. He would have tortured you until you were barely recognisable and only stop once you had told him every single thing he wanted to know 3 times over, all the while begging for death. What's more the last thing you would have seen would have been MY people. MY former colleagues, MY former lover taunting and beating you, if you were lucky, before your corpse would have been tossed into a cave for a trolls dinner

Taliesin- Calliope when you told me about Rulindil I wasn't just upset for him. I was shocked by it of course it was someone I knew someone I- regardless I was suddenly faced with the fact that I could have lost you. By the very people and ideals I used to follow and respect. These past few months... You have become quite a dear... friend to me. I guess I didn't know how much I cared until that moment. I don't get close to many people Calliope, me and you, this little gang, we have become closer than I ever was with anyone at the Thalmor... and yet I still care about what happened to Rulindil. I didn't handle the situation well. For what it's worth, I am sorry for snapping at you in Solitude. Forgive this grumpy old altmer?

Calliope- *chuckles* Forgiven but only if you forgive me too. I'm sorry for solitude too I may have gone a TEENY, tiny bit over the top there

Taliesin- A tiny bit?

Calliope- Ok a bit more than tiny. Friends?

Taliesin- ...Friends

Calliope- Good. I'm glad we're sorted this out Tally. I didn't like bickering with you. I missed this. Us

Taliesin- I missed us too

end of part 1. Look this post is already waaaaay too long. But I wanted to make some headcannons about Rulindil (sorry @dynamite124if you have anything planned for him) and why Tally was so upset and they really needed this talk. AND NO KISS. Sorry I take my slow burns very seriously

Nice and warm

synopsis: I cook soup for my man and reminisce about how we met, also recipe included.

an: So this little ditty is part of the @love-and-lore autumn self-ship collab, so if you are not into that feel free to skip this one.

The stage is set. My boyfriend won't know what hit him. I chuckle to myself as I continue to dice my yellow onions. The strong scent of onions stings my eyes and they start to water slightly. It’s September; that means soup season, and I aim to introduce different soups to my boyfriend through the fall and winter. My boyfriend is so picky. He only likes to eat foods that are easy to cook and easy to eat like chicken tenders and mac & cheese. There’s nothing wrong with those foods. I love a good bowl of mac & cheese every once in a while. However, I also like to get my daily intake of veggies so to increase his intake of veggies, I’m going full throttle.

As I finish chopping my onions, that’s when I start peeling and mincing my garlic. The delicious yet pungent aroma of garlic is a promise of the delicious soup that is to come. My kitchen is on the smaller side with its light green walls and the awkward color countertops. I have zero space so I have to mince all this garlic by hand. 

I turn my attention to a bowl of potatoes sitting in water, soaking and cleaning, the last of the prep for the heavy load of soup. With all of my fresh veggies neatly prepped and put into bowls, I start on the potatoes. Taking my peeler, I swiftly peel each of my potatoes and then cut them in halves. To make sure I don’t get early-onset arthritis, I bought a little gadget to help me easily dice my potatoes. I transfer them into a large bowl with cold fresh water to keep them all nice and white. 

I take a step back and marvel over my work. Wow! All of my items have been perfectly prepped, but now here comes the fun part: cooking! I decide to take out my beautiful butternut squash-colored Dutch oven and turn the fire up high on the stove.  As I feel a tiny bit of heat radiating from the pot itself, I layer the bottom half of the pot with bacon slices.

The bacon does its job and slowly cooks. I decided to take time out and measure my wet ingredients: 4 cups of chicken stock and 2 cups of milk. 

As the bacon slowly cooks, the scent radiates throughout the kitchen. It’s a wonderful smell. Hopefully, my boyfriend likes it. I had decided on a soup that was easy to make and very pleasing with the accouterments such as the bacon in the cheese.

Cooking bacon takes a while, especially when it’s still in its strip form and not chopped up like I should��ve done it. Still, who cares? As I slowly drift off into La La Land, the bottom of the pot with the bacon starts to turn brown. I am reminded why I am doing this. I'm doing this because I love my boyfriend and I want to eat soup; two birds. one stone.

My boyfriend and I have been dating for about two years. Within those two years, I found out so much about him; I know he’s a picky eater, a hard-core gamer, and I know he has a selective group of friends whom I affectionately call the ragamuffins or the little bastards. Anywho, when I first met my boyfriend, Tomura Shigaraki, I was a bit put off by him just because he didn’t traditionally approach me.  I was just minding my business when I heard a cheery feminine voice call out to me.

“Hey! You’re Yasmin, right?” A cheery voice called.

I turned around to see who was calling me. It was a short blonde girl wearing a dark hoodie and sneakers. I could feel an invisible pair of eyes staring at my dark skin from the shadows. A small chill ran down my back.

“Yes, who’s asking?” I balked at her question.

“So my friend over there likes you and would like to get to know you,” she stated while turning behind to point at a shadowy figure trying to conceal himself by a nearby tree.

The figure in question was a tall lanky man dressed in a dark hoodie and dark sweatpants. Blazing ruby red eyes with deep bags under his eyes, chapped lips, and the aura of an enraged Discord mod*.

“Why does he look like that?” I inquired while physically taking a step back. The man wasn’t even in my personal space and I felt like I was gonna get stabbed.

“He’s just shy,” she tried to assure me.

She was not doing a good job, plus with his intense staring, he was also shooting himself in the foot.

“Naw, I’m cool.”

Afterward, I got hounded by other people in his friend's circle. The blond girl introduced herself as Himiko Toga. We hung out more just because she was approachable and not stalking me from the shadows. A week after the informal meeting, I was approached by another man with tall dark spiky hair, turquoise, blue eyes, and a bad attitude: Dabi.

Dabi’s method of persuasion was terrible. He was more annoyed than anything as he tried listing off the non-redeemable qualities of his friend.

“Stop please,” I begged. As I would come to find out, Tomura truly has some odd friends. Dabi didn’t do a good job of painting Tomura in a good light. The heavily tattooed stranger emphasized the other was a hardcore gamer with mommy issues.

With friends like these, who needs enemies? I collected myself and turned away from Dabi.

“Listen here, if your friend wants to talk to me we can sit down at the campus coffee house and talk.” Dabi could feel my frustration as I spoke.

I turned on my heels and went in the opposite direction of the campus coffeehouse. “Otherwise I’m going to the campus police and reporting him for stalking!”

The scent of freshly ground espresso was a welcomed scent inside the coffee house. The campus coffee house was a nice and quaint place; pastries, coffees, and teas were their game, and serving espresso and other caffeinated delights was their cash cow.

The jingling of the bell alerted the barista to my presence. They greeted me warmly as I made my way to the counter to order. I ordered my usual – a London fog tea latte and a vanilla bean scone. After paying for my goods, I went to find a nice and secluded area for me and hopefully my stalker.

After my items were done, I quickly took them and sat at the very back of the cafe with a window seat. The coffee house doorbell jingled harshly as the perpetrator entered. Lo behold, it was my skrunkly stalker. Tomura was dressed in a gray hoodie and sweatpants. His hair at the time was blue-tinged. His striking red beady eyes stared straight at me. I waved him over, and he ran towards me like his life depended on it.

"So you want to tell me why you have been stalking me from the shadows?" I asked, cutting to the chase while sipping my latte.

The silence was deafening as I sipped on my latte loudly. The poor boy was sweating bullets while trying to concoct an answer.

"Because you smell nice," His answer stunned me as he continued to explain. 

"We have some connecting classes so when I sit behind or near you…I sniff your perfume." He admitted as his cheeks blushed a furious shade of red.

"That is so creepy."

The smell of cooked bacon pulls me from my daydream as I go to collect my bounty of cooked bacon. Swiftly picking the bacon strips out of the Dutch oven with my tongs, I put the bacon on a paper towel-clad plate and then turn the heat to low.

With the bacon secured, I quickly move on to building the soup base. Next, I add two tablespoons of butter, diced onions, and minced garlic. With those ingredients, the kitchen quickly becomes more fragrant and delicious. My onions cook down and are thoroughly translucent, and the garlic is browning in color: not burnt, but beige. 

I measure my liquids: chicken broth and heavy whipping cream. Then once the vegetables look nice and golden brown, I add half a cup of flour.

As much as Tomura’s friends would tease him about our initial courting, I wouldn’t have traded the experience for the world. After our impromptu date at the campus coffee house, Tomura went out of his way to talk to me. He still stalked me from the shadows but that kept the real creeps away from me. So a win is a win…I guess.

With the veg and flour mixture fully turned into liquid goodness via the six cups of chicken stock, I quickly add my chopped potatoes and herb mixture: rosemary, thyme, salt/pepper, and a couple of dashes of Montreal steak seasoning.

Keys jingling and the lock turning makes a smile spread across my face.

“Babe, I’m home,” Tomura calls as he waltzes into our shared apartment.

“I’m in the kitchen!” I yell.

“Smells good in here, what are we having for dinner?”

“Loaded potato soup.”

Slender arms wrap themselves around my waist and I feel slightly chapped lips kiss the side of my cheek. I giggle at the affection my boyfriend dotes on me in private. I tell him to go wash up and that dinner will be ready in a minute. I took the time to crumble up the cooked bacon for garnish. Along with shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, and the crumbled bacon on top of the piping hot soup dinner is complete.

Once back, the table is already set, and the man of the hour is wearing his at-home sweater. Dressed in a white t-shirt with a black sweater with cream lining, it gives off an academic vibe.

“Someone looks fancy,” I tease.

“I can’t help it, it's comfortable,” he playfully pouts while taking his seat across from me.

I hand him his bowl of loaded potato soup. My gremlin doesn’t even set the steaming bowl on the table before he begins chowing down on the cheesy and bacony goodness. I laugh at his antics; the man is acting like this is the first time he'd ever had my cooking.

“What’s so funny?”

“You, acting like a starving kitten.”

He blushes furiously at my taunt and looks away from me before going back to eating his soup, this time less comically.

“I’m glad you like it though,” I beam at the praise. “I thought about you while making it.”

Tomura stops eating for a moment and looks at me. Carnelian eyes glow with amusement as he reaches out for my hand on the table.

“Yaz, I don’t care if you served me those abominations from the 50’s,” I giggle at his words. “I will treasure anything you make.”

He quickly stands the both of us up, and I point to his sweater.

“I didn’t make that, but I bought it for you.”

“Doesn't matter, this was bought with the intention of making me happy.”

“And warm,” I mock him.

“And warm,” he repeats.

[msookyspooky]

honest question, how do you think severen would do with a mate who is asexual?

I'm Demiromantic and I'm pretty damn sure I'm Grey-Bisexual (Or just beyond picky it's hard for me to tell tbh). It's just such a broad spectrum ranging from "I feel no sexual attraction to others/very certain people but still crave sex." to "I feel zero sexual attraction to others at all including sex itself." so for this purpose I'm just gonna be as generalized as possible.

Severen with an Asexual S/O

- At first...Let's be so fr his ego is up there. He's not new to rejection but he definitely has a 'They want me so bad they look stupid. They'll cave eventually' sort of attitude...So...If you don't find him sexually attractive at all, not even a little bit, his ego feels slighted when he first developed attraction for you.

- Even if you're like 'Yeah you're handsome/pretty. Sure.' and described him in the most reasonable way he's confused because you find him pretty but not sexy? What is he, a fucking tulip?! 🌷

- I'm sorry but he was PROBABLY mildly offended at first especially if he was attracted to you/has a crush on you. Is it his hair? His smile? His voice? His body? You don't find him attractive at all?! The man is offended like a teen boy but won't admit

- Studied you heavily to see what you did like. Thinking he'll catch you fibbing to him. He just wants to know; What does that person have that he doesn't if he caught you flirting or ogling someone else? Just to see you weren't lying to him to spare his feelings...You really weren't attracted to anyone.

- That surprised him but didn't shock him. He's been around a long time. I'm sure you're not the first Asexual person he's met.

- At first, he would try to press buttons. It's just him. He's a touchy person and he's definitely going to try kissing your neck and let his hands travel and if you're sexually repulsed you're gonna have to tell him right away and really make him understand it's not a 'Oh, I just haven't found the right one~' And not the fact you truly do not want that sort of relationship.

- If you aren't sexually repulsed (If that's incorrect terminology srry) but just not sexually attracted to him he'd just shrug it off. Big deal. It's not like it's only him you're not attracted to so how could he take it personally? You're with him after all! Especially if sex was still on the table.

- But if you do not want anything sexual from him at all? Ever? He is going to be a bit unsure but it's not a deal breaker.

- Once turned blood gives them a euphoric state of mind anyways (Que Caleb smiling on the ground like a space cadet on cloud nine from drinking Mae's blood or Severen hollering and licking his fingers and acting like he's happier and more hyped than usual) so it wouldn't shock me if blood replaces a lot of sexually urges they had as humans anyways. So no sex isn't as big of a deal.

- He's charming, born over 100 years ago in a more gentry era even if he's always been a bastard and a touchy loving person with those he likes. So idc what anyone says, the man can be romantic even if he's not 'the romantic type'. It may not be poems or serenading you or classic dates...But a night with just you two and him surprising you with gifts and telling you how wonderful you are to him? Yeah. He would.

- As long as he's still allowed to kiss, cuddle, hug you? He's okay with that. And boy, does he ever! He's very affectionate and sweet when he wants to be.

- Calls you the most mushy embarrassing names like his 'cuddlebug' or 'snugglebunny' just to tease you because it's something you do plentifully with him (Even if he's the one being the snuggly one here). He just adores you and as long as you're held up in his arms; he could care less whether you're sexually attracted to him or not or if you even want sex at all.

- Would be your best friend 💯 Before anything else. You're his mate and he doesn't take that lightly. You are his partner in crime through and through before romance or sex.

- With how he was the ONLY vampire in the entire movie that either A. Didn't have a mate and B. Didn't want one; he could be on the Ace Spectrum himself! Whether it be Romantic or Sexual. Ace or Demi/Grey....I feel like he understands or could easily learn to.

- Wouldn't change his vulgar mouth too much I am sorry but the man has been crude for over a century...However, if you get zero reaction from him flirting or making a sex joke he'd naturally back off it because he is an attention grabber more than anything. He wants to make you smile and impress you and have your undivided attention. If Dad jokes and being sweet is what has you smitten with him more than raunchy jokes and obscene flirting than he will be cranking out corny one liners and tell you how beautiful you are to him.

Eikichi nsfw alphabet

I’ve been a bit nervous to try this with Eikichi because he canonically is implied to have some sort of disordered eating issue. Which, I feel when it comes to sex, needs a bit of acknowledgement because of how it can affect things like stamina, the body, of course, and self-esteem. So, if I mess something up, or I don’t word something right, please tell me how to fix it. I tried my best to stay respectful. I love this character, I wanted to share my ideas for him.

CW: mentions of disordered eating, allusions to how it affects a person, more warnings will be added if needed.

A= Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

Eikichi Mishina is very loving after sex. No matter whether he’s playing dom or sub.

As a dom, he’s sure to be very caring and gentle after the fact.

When he submits, Eikichi’s favorite thing is sometimes the doting aftercare. He’s very lovey and affectionate after sex, and he enjoys when that’s returned.

B= Body part (favorite on themselves and their partners)

Eikichi, no matter the age, hates his body to some level. If he was forced to pick, he’d have to say his face was his favorite.

On his partner, though, Eikichi loves every inch of them. A belly? He enjoys how soft it makes them. Thick thighs? He’s a fan of being suffocated. Stretch marks? They’re fun to trace!

He truly is not a picky man lol.

C= Cum (Anything to do with cum)

Once again, he tends to not like cum very much. It makes him feel gross to have it on his skin, and he feels bad for his getting on a lover. If his hand was forced, though, he’d sooner pick to cum on his partner than the inverse.

D= Dirty secret (Their dirty secret)

Despite his low self-esteem, Eikichi ironically strikes me as someone who enjoys being degraded. Of course, it only works with trust that his partner won’t go too far with the insults. But, it’s there.

On a similar note, Eikichi knows it’s not healthy, but he’d probably let Miyabi incorporate treats or delayed eating into sexual activities.

Of course, this would be done with trust, and Miyabi would never exert that much control over him, but it’s a dark little thing he’d try.

E= Experience (How experienced are they?)

Don’t let Eikichi’s confidence and ego fool you. He’s only slept with an estimation of 3 people. Miyabi, Jun, and Tatsuya. And even then, Tatsuya is debatable.

F= Favorite position (self explanatory)

Any position where his partner isn’t looking at him would probably be his favorite.

However, he’s also got a soft spot for his face being sat on, being strangled by his lover’s thighs, that sort of thing.

G= Goofy (Are they more goofy or more serious in the moment?)

Eikichi is all around a goofy ass lover. As a dom, he’s less goofy, but he’s still got a good sense of humor. As a sub, he’s far more liberal with being a bit silly. He’s there to entertain, no matter the role.

H= Hair (How well groomed are they? Do the carpets match the drapes?)

Let’s be so real, Eikichi does not groom down there. He’ll trim, but it’s still kept pretty wild so he has less of himself to see.

I= Intimacy (how are they in the moment? Romantically)

despite how goofy he is, Eikichi’s very romantic in the moment. He’ll joke and he’ll play, but he’ll also play into the slow, loving romance of it.

J= Jack off (masturbation habits)

He doesn’t strike me as much of a masturbator. He’s definitely done it, but he can also go a good amount of time between them.

K= Kink (one or more of their kinks)

Eikichi Mishina is a kinky ass bastard. He’s got enough sexual interests for him andTatsuya.

To name a few, he likes to be degraded, he likes for that degredation to be from a hot, dark-haired woman who is not scared to dominate the shitout of him. He’s kind of into the size difference that comes with being 6’1 with women. Pegging, masochism, body worship, collars, leashes, master/servant.

All of these go in between his roles. He’s a switch, and not many of his kinks are role-exclusive.

L= Location (favorite place to do it)

He’s got a weakness for semi-publis spots like closets, secluded corners and alcoves, anything like that. So long as his partner is demanding sex of him in a mean enough way, he’ll fuck anywhere.

M= Motivation (what gets them going and in the mood?)

Femdoms. Eikichi’s biggest kink is probably mean, dominating women who will step on his neck and call him a brainless slut. Thank Miyabi Hanakouji for that.

N= No (What are their turn offs)

Shockingly, Eikichi can reach a point where he doesn’t mind being called Daddy. His biggest turn off is if his lover goes too far with the degredation and abuse.

He’s fine being slapped, spit on, stepped on, or called a bimbo from time to time. But if you do that shit out of nowhere, or you attack things like his masculinity, weight, or if you go too hard in on his looks. Gotta warn the man, and get the okay that he’s thathorny that night.

O= Oral (preferences on giving/getting, skill, etc)

He enjoys both. He legit can’t pick a favorite. He enjoys getting his dick sucked, he enjoys devouring women. He’s a little less enthusiastic blowing men, but he’s not against that either.

P= Pace (are they fast, rough, slow etc)

He’s fairly moderate. He can go rough, but speed is not his strong suit. He tires out if he goes fast for too long, man.

Q= Quickie (Their opinions on them, how often)

He fucking loves quickies. The desperation, the risk, the need, all you’ve gotta do is demand it, and he’s butter.

R= Risk (Are they game to experiment? Take risks?)

Eikichi is fairly risky in bed. He’s down to try a lot, not a lot is a strict turn off, you moreso just need to get him horny enough.

S= Stamina (How many rounds can they go?)

Best your getting is one, maybe one and a half rounds.

The way to thoroughly enjoy Eikichi is the pace. He’s really good at a slow, teasing build up, and he’s really fun totease and slowly build up.

T= Toys (Do they have them? Do they use toys on themselves or partners?)

You can bet your ass that this man has a collection of toys for any use you want.

Want to use them on him? Go ahead! He’ll bottom and let you go at it. Just don’t get anything stuck.

Want him to use them on you? He’s more than happy to. That’s how he gets multiple orgasms out of a girl without exhausting himself into a puddle.

He’s got a wide selection of shit to try, he’s down.

U= Unfair (Do they like to tease?)

Eikichi is a teaser.

He compensates for his lack of stamina, body, or length with foreplay, and he can get fuckin’ mean with it. Especially if he’s feeling dominating.

V= Volume (How loud are they? What noises do they make? Etc)

Eikichi’s learned how to project his voice for singing, and my god does that switch flip on at some random times when he’s not thinking. He is a noisy, vocal lover.

W= Wild card (Just a random headcanon about the character)

Eikichi is bisexual, and if he had to pick a man to screw, it would probably be Jun. Tatsuya’s a close second, but Jun’s more his type.

Eikichi’s sexuality is determinate on his age. In his teens, he was dealing with self-esteen and disordered eating, sex was not a priority because of those. Later on though? In his twenties or later? His appetite wakes up, and he is not shy about it.

X= X-Ray (What’s going on underneath those clothes?)

Thanks to his history of food issues, his dick is sort of playing catch up to his height. Gotta give him time to hopefully grow.

Body-wise, Eikichi is very sensitive about his body as a whole. Be nice to him about it.

Y= Yearning (How high is their sex drive?)

In his younger years, near non-existent. Further into his adulthood? He’s more ravenous. He loves men and women, he’s got years to catch up on, and he’s got the excitement of a teenage boy seeing his first naked person.

Z= Zzz (How quickly do they fall asleep after?)

With his stamina being so low, he can conk the fuck out in a flash. Especially if you pace him and drive him for a good while.

happy blorbo blursday! may I near some Alex facts?

hi hello? hi. I'm several actual months late but I was wandering through my drafts and was like, oh, today is the day I am going to finally answer this apparently. wahoo surprise motivation time

anyway thank you for the blorbo blursday ask n sorry I'm so late with it ahaha

Alex facts! I can offer Alex facts <3

so, I have a bunch of posts where I explain a tonne of stuff about Alex n its personality n its backstory n history with Quinn in excruciating detail and many paragraphs and I will not subject you to this level of in depth writings, but I will give you some Basic Rundown Of Alex In General facts then I will give u some other random Alex facts, because I can c:

the Alex overview:

full name Alexis Anders.... possible joke full name Alexis Alexander Anders..... making it Alex Alexander Anders. did its parents think this would be funny

they were fucking right, it is funny

it/its pronouns with extra special friends, he/him for everybody else

aromantic and in a queerplatonic relationship with best friend Quinn. not asexual. sexuality is shrug emoji, though

kind and compassionate, firm and diplomatic...... has a reputation among most for being warm-hearted but stoic

the most petty spiteful pissed-off chaotically stubborn bastard on the planet, but you are unlikely to actually notice this unless you're very very close to it and can pick up on some very specific subtle cues. like. Alex is a genuinely wonderful, gentle, morally-upstanding person. Alex is also a huge bitch (affectionate)

fatally allergic to sunlight

once fucked off to an abandoned house in the wilderness for three months to fistfight vampire god, isolating itself from society and refusing to feed on humans, enduring near-constant agony, mind-manipulation and gaslighting from the Garble, and starvation

(the general consensus is that vampire god didn't give a fuck, and Alex would have eventually just died there, but man, idk. idk. it's Alex. I think there's a chance no matter how slim that the Garble might have flinched first)

a personal injuries lawyer! for some of the year, at least! during the winter and autumn, it lives in Melberra City, Melberra, where the weather leans towards rainy and cloudy most days and Alex is free to go about its day job with no issues :3c during sunny summer and spring, Alex returns to Darwelaide and a nocturnal sleeping pattern, n hangs out with Quinn n does some freelance work

an intensely private person and incredibly picky when it comes to friends and who it opens up to, but this is not to be confused with coldness, standoffishness or sombreness

Very Very Very Very Very Fucking Tall

gentle and adverse to physical violence but will floor a motherfucker in a debate (for profit or fun)

does not want to be a vampire. hates being a vampire. doesn't wanna eat people. yearns to be human again. mourns the life it had to leave behind

is a vampire nonetheless, however, and tries to balance out its various moral crises by hunting down and killing almost exclusively vicious, despicable human predators society will never hold accountable for their cruelty

is a fucking pro at goofy sleight of hand magic lmao

has a huge greenhouse full of herbs and flowers and veggies and other such wonderful things because Hobbies Are Good For One's Health! and is constantly trying to pan boxes of fresh produce off to whoever will take them because it grows way more than it can realistically use itself, n it's very proud of its greenhouse and wants to share :3

n now extra Alex dot points that don't belong in an overview but r fun nonetheless

the neighbourhood kids have a bunch of very hush-hush rumours between them that Alex is a vampire, 'cause it hardly ever comes outside during the daytime and its windows are all boarded up to keep sunlight out. they're right, yeah, but this is, like. goofy little kid games. it is a topic for them to play make believe with, mostly, and get over-imaginative about

the kids are not NOT scared of the idea that Alex might be a vampire, but also whenever Alex is around on Halloween it has the best candy so they will dutifully protect its secret lmao. also it helped one of their mums out with a whole workers compensation asbestos thing one time so is probably not, like, an evil vampire

(but yes, the general story around the suburb is just that Alex has a medical condition that results in extreme sun sensitivity)

Alex does canonically possess a conspiracy-theory-looking murder pinboard for planning for and researching its targets. Alex used to use a notebook but Quinn was like "no no no where's your DRAMA where's your PIZZAZZ your AESTHETIC you MUST let me help you make a murder pinboard" and Alex decided it would allow this (it seemed like appropriate enrichment for its chaotic best friend and might keep them out of trouble for a bit)

Alex's tarot card is Temperance

Alex is terrible with animals and pretends this doesn't make it sad

Alex is the only ordinary vampire in the story capable of using its blood for hypnotism!

Alex is the only vampire in the story, ordinary or otherwise, capable of using its blood for healing others as well as itself!

Alex will and often does sleep on its own, but likes to have company n only ever really sleeps comfortably and deeply next to Quinn, and later Nat

as far as vampires go, Alex has fuckin godlike levels of self-control and even seasoned vampire hunters like Zeke can rarely pick up on the fact that it's a vampire

and the most important Alex fact of all

it deserves a little kiss on the forehead and a warm mug of coffee with lots of cream and sugar <3

[nat-20s]

for @jonmartinweek day 8! (which I definitely realized was happening and for sure did not forget lmao). The prompt was free day/au, so I picked my own theme of “pets”. The last few fics have been pretty loaded, so please enjoy some pure post canon (literal and figurative) fluff

~*~

“I can’t believe I married a dog person.”

They weren’t even supposed to be in the shelter. They had made no plans to visit a shelter. However, as Jon has been learning over the course of the past couple years, a Martin not under duress and given free time outside will inevitably end up trying to befriend any living nonhuman creature in the immediate vicinity.

“I’m not a dog person.”

“The lapful of beagle puppy would indicate otherwise.”

“Just because I appreciate the company of a very good boy, yes you are, doesn’t mean I’m a dog person. Dog person implies I have a preference. I like cats equally as much as I like dogs. Unlike some of us, my heart is open to all manner of furry friends.”

“I don’t...hate dogs.”

“Uh-huh. Is that why you won’t pet Rufio here?”

“He’s nippy, I don’t trust him. And it’s just that dogs are A Lot. I find most of them a bit overwhelming. And needy.”

“Pff, that’s no excuse. You’ve been best friends with overwhelming, and you married needy.”

Martin lets out a distracted giggle as Rufio finally gets in a lick on his face. Okay, maybe it is a pretty adorable sight, but that’s hardly sufficient enough evidence to actually let such an energetic ball of fluff into their home. Still, it’s enough to convince Jon to sit down next to them, and give Rufio a very tentative scritch behind the ears. “I think we both qualify as the needy one in our relationship.”

“Pretty sure that’s called codependency. What would our therapist say?”

“She’d probably say that’s a bit harsh. And that we still need to work on our separation anxiety.”

“Hey, you know what helps with separation anxiety?”

“No.”

“A dog!”

“No!”

They get a dog. Their flat is decently sized and they both have steady incomes and enough free time between them to take proper care of her. They don’t get Rufio, but instead a 7 year old mutt named Daffodil who is, admittedly, the most gentle and sweet creature Jon’s ever met. They also get a cat, a rambunctious 2 year old tabby named Jack (“We can change the name.” “Jon! How dare you! Jack responds to his name, clearly he likes it!”) who had already decided Daffodil was his mom, and they couldn’t possibly bear not adopting them together.

~*~

“You know, we could get a tarantula.”

“Fuck off.”

“I’m serious! They’re not, like, evil in this universe, and some of them have cutest little pink toesie woesies.”

“You’re not serious, you’re being a bastard, and I hate you.”

Martin wraps his arms around Jon’s waist and presses a kiss to the side of his face, which Jon gives a half-hearted swat at, because, again, the man’s being a bastard. Stubbornly ignoring Jon’s pout, Martin presses his cheek to the top of Jon’s head, cheerfully replying, “I’m fine with that, as long as you promise to hate me for the rest of our lives.”

“Well, I certainly can’t make that promise. I won’t even hate you ten seconds from now. I suppose you’ll have to settle for love instead.”

“Hmm. Deal.”

“We’re still not getting a fucking tarantula.”

They do not get a tarantula. Their home remains admirably spider free.

~*~

Martin’s gasp is loud enough to echo, and Jon can feel him begin to vibrate next to him. The excitement is perplexing at first, they’ve been to this bookstore dozens of times, and it’s never elicited this sort of response. Then Jon looks over to the front counter, where a medium-sized cage and a “For adoption” sign have been put on display. With a wild, jubilant glee, Martin asks, “Sonja! Are those baby. Dumbo. Rats?!”

“Sure are! I’ve got a friend who’s a breeder, I take it you’re interested?”

“Yes, absolutely, 100%, we’re getting two immediately.”

“Well…”

Martin snaps his head over to look at Jon with a look of betrayal the likes of which Jon hasn’t seen since the panopticon. “Jonathan, no!”

“Um.”

“You can not tell me you you don’t like rats! Dumbo rats especially!”

“I…”

Ticking off on his fingers, Martin lists, “They’re adorable, they’re smart, they’re cleanly, they’re extremely empathetic, they’re tickilish, which is stupidly cute, they can be trained to use a litter box and do tricks, they’re snuggly and playful and perfect! They’re all the good parts of dogs combined with the best parts of cats in one tiny portable package! Look at their little ears, that are like that because of a slight difference in skull shape that has no negative health effects! Plus, we can set them up in the project room, since Captain Jack isn’t allowed in there anyway. How can you dislike rats?”

“I don’t know! They just sort of..freak me out. Or not all of them, just their feet. I don’t like their little man hands.”

Martin throws his arms in the air, proclaiming, “Their little man hands are one of their best qualities! Look, Jon, are you genuinely afraid of them, or just slightly discomfited?”

“I would say mediumly discomfited. This isn’t like spiders.”

“Cool. ‘Cause in that case, we’re getting the light tan one and the solid white one, their names shall be Peaches and Cream, and you will love them as much as you love our dog and cat children.”

“That’s a rather bold claim.”

“It’s an accurate one. You’ll see.”

Within a week, Jon is transporting Peaches ‘n’ Cream in the pocket of his hoodie, and he can feel Martin’s smug aura from two rooms away. Damn him.

~*~

“Did you know snakes don’t have an amygdala?”

“Okay? You didn’t have to bring me to a reptile store to tell me that.”

“I didn’t bring you to a reptile store to tell you that. I brought you to a reptile store because I want to hold a cornsnake.”

Jon rolls his eyes, but the fondness in his voice somewhat undercuts it. “Of course you do.”

Martin makes a scaly acquaintance in less than two minutes, and as the snake coils around his fingers, he continues, “Anyway, if they don’t have amygladas, do they feel fear in a way similar to us, or is it only a recognition of threats and instinctual response?”

“Martin, my love, I have no idea. Is this going somewhere? It’s fine if not, I’m just checking in.”

“Yes. Because if they don’t feel fear, I’m getting this snake and naming her Georgie.”

That makes Jon let out a sharp bark of laugh, and, for a moment, he’s able to reminisce without any pain. “You know, I think she’d actually love that? She also had a proclivity for all creatures great and small. And a terrible sense of humor.”

“Wow, you really have a type, huh. Also hey! My sense of humor is fantastic! It always makes my husband laugh, and he has very exacting standards.”

“Liar. Your husband finds joy with you at the slightest provocation, no good sense of humor needed.”

“Hmm. He is a bit of a softie, isn’t he? Which is why he’ll let me get this snake.”

“He most certainly will not.”

“But….look at her….”

“It’s not a matter of how cute she is, dear. It’s a matter of you made us get pet rats less than a month ago, there’s absolutely no way you’re going to be able to feed mice to a snake.”

Martin looks at the cornsnake, looks at Jon, looks back, and his shoulders slump. With a wince, he asks, “Maybe frozen mice won’t be too bad?”

“What if she’s picky?”

“...There are species of snake that only eat bugs.”

“Cornsnakes aren’t one of them.”

Waving over an assistant, Martin puts the cornsnake back with a defeated, “Fine. When you’re right, you’re right.”

Jon doesn’t particularly feel like he’s won an argument. In fact, he’s a bit disappointed himself, he always liked snakes. Big fan of reptiles in general, actually, which is probably what drives him to say, “Lizards don’t usually eat mice.”

That’s how they walk out of the store with three leopard geckos.

~*~

Jon’s helping Martin set up the gecko tank in what can now be affectionately called a zoo when all of the sudden it strikes him. Some of the animals in their home right now have life spans of 10-20 years, and never once had the necessary longevity of care come up as a reason to protest against them. Jon had felt so at ease with the concept of a future that he hadn’t even thought about it, hadn’t been steeling himself for the other shoe to drop. He’s stopped having bated breath every time something good happens, instead taking reassurance in a sense of permanence that he wasn’t sure he’d ever feel again. Martin must hear his breath hitch, because he immediately stops what he’s doing to take Jon’s hand into his own. “Something wrong, love?”

Jon shakes his head. “No, nothing. I suppose I’m realizing that we have time, don’t we?”

Martin must know exactly what he means, the weight behind the words, because he brings Jon’s hand to his lips and says, “Yes. Yes, we really, really do.”

Stop It

Description: When bad habits come back, it leaves you with worries and feeling self-aware. But when your boyfriend spots this, he just has to prove you wrong.

Word Count: 2.4k

A/N: This was requested by an Anon. Really hope this was okay, I tried my best with it. Hope everyone else enjoys and I’d love to know what you think! Thank you for reading x

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

As a kid all you heard when it came to you and your little habit was, “Stop it.”

Picking and biting at your lips was something that had haunted you for as long as you could remember. Cracked and broken skin on your lips were almost a constant and it haunted you still even now.

After you’d been ill with the flu or a cold, or something your lips liked to taunt you. Even just after being out in the cold for too long without applying some lip balm.

It was a fucking pain.

And because they used to be in such a bad condition, you just assumed that once the dead skin was off you'd be fine. So picking at them and biting them seemed like it was helping.

Oh how wrong you were.

So that was when you got constant ‘Stop it’s from your parents and when you caught yourself doing it you said a silent ‘stop it’ to yourself.

And the past few days you’d fallen back into that bad habit because you’d just got over a cold. So when you were at work today, stressing out over a client, you caught yourself staring at your laptop with your elbow rested on your desk and your fingers on your lips, picking at a little piece of dry skin you’d found.

Stop it.

Then you caught yourself biting them later when you were trying to actually make the custom design for your client. Another ‘stop it’ filled your mind.

Then again on the phone to another client who was being rude.

Stop it.

And again, when you were driving back home to your boyfriend who’d just flew back in from a series of shows he’d done.

STOP IT!

All you wanted to do was be able to kiss your boyfriend, but no way would he want to go anywhere near you if your lips split. Thankfully the first day or two when Matty was back home your lips held out.

You tried your best to control your habit and with Matty distracting you from work stresses it became a little easier. But when you were at work and he obviously wasn’t around you fell back into old habits.

And after a particularly stressful day at work, you did the worst.

You accidently split your lip.

Never had you not wanted to go home to Matty more. He was affectionate with you in the best of ways and he almost always wanted a kiss and a cuddle when it was just the two of you alone together.

But you didn’t want to kiss him with your lips in the state they were. Despite trying every lip balm, lip scrub, and moisturizer, nothing had helped over the past few days they still fucking split.

You hated it, and you hated that it made you anxious for Matty to see you like that. Thankfully, he’d never seen you like this before but something in you made you think he’d want nothing to do with you.

Maybe it was your old anxiety creeping back in. Or maybe it was just the fear of rejection.

Whatever the reason, it made you want to hide yourself from the person you shouldn’t be hiding yourself from.

“Hey.” You called when you got home, knowing Matty was around somewhere.

“Hey.” Matty calls back from the lounge, “How was work?”

When you walk in and see your boyfriend with his long mop of curls, you smile saying, “Stressful.”

“Bastards being picky again?” Matty grins when his brown eyes connect with your Y/E/C ones.

You chuckle remembering you’d complained about your clients to him on multiple occasions. You loved your job but god you met some pretentious people along the way.

“Not more so than you when it comes to buying your vintage clothes.” You tease him, throwing your coat down on the settee before leaning over him and kissing the top of his head.

Matty playfully scoffs, “I’m not being picky, I just have taste.”

“Sure, that's what we'll call it.” You giggle as Matty pulls you down onto his lap so he could give you a hug.

His arms wrap around you and he buries his head into your neck. You smile, feeling him kiss your skin a few times but you just bury your nose into his soft curls that smell like his expensive almond conditioner, as you ask, “How’s your day been?”

“Boring without you here.” Matty tells you and even though he’s just being kind, it makes you smile.

As you ask, “How are the boys?” Matty’s lips slowly trace their way up your neck and to your jaw.

Your anxiety set in a bit then, knowing exactly where they were headed.

“They’re alright, I suppose.” Matty tells you, he kisses just under your ear before he says, “Wanna see you apparently.”

“Well that's no shock, they do love me more than they love you.” You joke.

Matty chuckles a little at that and kisses across your cheek as he whines, “You’re mineee.”

You giggle at that and throw your head laughing back just before his lips reach the corner of yours.

Matty chuckles too hearing your laugh and he kisses under your jaw whilst it’s exposed to him. Your laugh was so adorable, and he’d never tire of hearing it.

“Do you want a brew?” You ask the love of your life as you get up out of his lap.

Matty smiles, looking up at your gorgeous face, “I’d love a coffee please.”

You nod and head to the kitchen feeling a little relief that you’d got out of that one. You didn’t want him to be repulsed by the thought of kissing you, so you’d rather avoid kissing him instead.

But that turned out to be what gave you away.

That night you went to George’s for a Chinese with them all. Adam brought Carly with him so you ended up talking to her for most of the night to try and avoid PDA.

You just received passing kisses on the head or on the cheek that night, even when you crawled into bed later you just tucked your head under Matty’s chin and let sleep take over you quickly.

The following day you avoided them too and you thought you were being subtle about it. Sometimes you playfully dodged his kiss and kissed his cheek instead, and other times you made him kiss your cheek when he went in for one, because you’d put lip balm on.

But the day after you were still doing the same despite not being in a playful mood or having anything on your lips.

You were standing in your kitchen with Matty’s arms around your waist making the both of you an omelette for lunch. You’d told Matty to just take a seat at your kitchen table as he kept trying to distract you with hugs from behind and trying to lean over you and kiss your face.

You laugh but instruct him once more to sit himself down. After another minute of him pestering you, you nudge him with your hip to move himself over to the table and he finally lets go of you and lets you finish your delicious creation.

He says a thank you when you place it down in front of him and he was going to give you a kiss until you practically whipped yourself back to the kitchen counter, just ruffling his hair

“Hey.” Matty says to make you look over at him, and when you do, he asks, “What’s up?”

You put your own lunch on your plate and when you sit down on the seat at the end of the table, you say, “Nothing, why?”

Matty points out, “You've not let me kiss you for the past two days.”

You go quiet then feeling bad because you haven’t kissed your boyfriend. And for the fact you’d not been honest about it and its leading him to ask questions like, “Have I done something?

“No Matty.” You tell him softly, never wanting to make him think that.

You look into his gorgeous brown eyes and you can see he’s just curious about your behaviour. Usually you’re all over each other, but you have been pretty distant and with him only being back for 3 weeks it hurt your heart not to have him the way you wanted him.

But you’d rather not have the anxiousness that came with you being overly self-aware of your lips against his.

“Then what’s up?” Matty asks, watching as you avoid eye contact and just concentrate on your food.

You glance at his plate and see it’s going untouched, so you gesture to it saying, “I promise I’m fine, just eat before it goes cold.”

“Don’t tell me you've gone off me?” Matty says after a few seconds.  

And when you just take a deep breath to try and think over another excuse, Matty asks, “Oh my god, have you?”

“No.” Your eyes snap up to his in panic. You didn’t want him to think that at all, so you repeat, “No, never.”

“Then what's up?” Matty chuckles and then noticing your look of panic he makes light of it asking, “I’m feeling very affection starved.”

You close your eyes, sighing, “Matty.”

“Come on, love.” Your boyfriend chuckles before taking your hand and asking again, “What’s up?”

“Is it not obvious?” You ask, feeling like your lips were really disgusting right now.

Matty shakes his head, “I’ve got no clue why you won't let me kiss you.”

After a deep breath you tell him the truth, “My lips are a fucking state.”

“Your lips are fine.” Matty frowns a little confused, looking down at them. “What do you mean?”

You say in a vulnerable voice, hating having to point it out, “Matty it’s split.”

Matty glances back down at then again and he reaches up to cup your jaw. You resist the urge to pull away from his reach because after all he was the person who knew you best.

His thumb comes up and runs across your bottom lip then and he shakes his head, “It's tiny.”

You shake your head a little so his thumb drops. He was being polite; it wasn’t tiny at all. The only highlight was that it was starting to heal.

You follow up with, “I hate it, they feel all dry and disgusting.”

“You’re thinking they are a lot worse than they are Darling. I don’t hate them at all.” Matty says, scooting his chair a little closer so he could easily trace your lips again.

He softly asks, a little more sympathetic, “Did you really not want to kiss me because of that?”

“It’s vile.” You shake your head.

“It’s not.” Matty says and then adds, “You’re my girlfriend, I wanna kiss you all the time.”

You put your hand over your lips and shake your head.

“Stop that.” Matty bats your hand away but as soon as he retreats you cover your lips again.

“Stop it.” Matty insists, pulling your hand down and keeping hold of it, “You don’t have to do that.”

You try to pull your hand away but when he doesn’t let you, so you just bring your other one up when you say, “I do because you keep looking.”

“Only because I want to kiss them.” Matty grins at you.

You shake your head and look back down. Noticing your plates are still full, you try to change the subject by saying, “The food’s going cold.”

“It’ll get colder if you don't give me a kiss.” Matty grins.

You sigh then, still feeling conscious and you’re about to protest but your boyfriend doesn’t let you retreat again.

“Y/N.” Matty says before you can protest, “I want to kiss you all the time.”

He then makes a pouty face at you then and puckers his lips making kissing noises at you. He gets you giggling within seconds and your heart swells with how lovely he’s being towards you.

Matty can obviously tell it's something you’re not comfortable about. But he didn’t care in the slightest.

He loved you with the whole of his heart and he’d do everything he could to make you love yourself as much as he loved you. And if that meant kissing your pretty lips every second of every day, he would do.

You chuckle at your boyfriend puckering his lips at you and you ask, “Even wanna kiss me when my lips are mingin’?”

“They’re not mingin’.” Matty assures you before he just abandons his chair and just kneels on the ground in front of you.

He still has a hold of your hand and he gives it a little squeeze before he assures you, “I love you Y/N, course I wanna kiss you.”

You smile at him then and when he actually goes go for the kiss Matty is really happy you don’t stop him. Your kiss was just as sweet as it usually was and Matty felt the excitement bubble away inside him like it always had at the mere thought of kissing you.

But Matty just kept his one sweet, making sure you were calm and relaxed. And he was pleased to know you were.

When Matty pulls away, he smiles, “See...? Wasn't so bad, was it?

Your cheeks go a little hot then, seeing how much adoration was in his eyes. You don't hesitate to tell him, “I love you.”

“I love you too.” Matty grins, before cheekily asking, “Can you have another one?”

You giggle at his one-track mind, but you decide to make him wait. You pass him your plate and say, “After you warm up my eggs.”

Your boyfriend takes it with a laugh and grabs his own plate. But he steals one more kiss from his gorgeous girlfriend on the way back to the stove.

POODLES IN THE WASTELAND

i jest I jest

But 👀

What about pets? Either ones companions would have or a very uncommon one that someone wouldn’t think was a good pet, BUT IS. Deathclaws you can ride like a pony, mole rats that want belly rubs, cazadore’s as cattier pigeons! What are your thoughts?

Or like, Danse or Piper or Fawkes with something hilarious Idek ignore me

Oooookay, here’s my comprehensive list of companions - ALL companions, across Fallouts 3, 4, New Vegas and 76 - and their (headcanon) choices in wasteland pets. I’ll give a little explanation for each - particularly as many of these companions are transients and don’t have the luxury of owning a home to keep pets at. Also, I feel like most of the companions, while they might not necessarily like pets, would be somewhat fond or at least respectful of the pets of the Lone Wanderer/Courier/Sole Survivor/Vault Dweller, like Dogmeat and Rex. 

Bighorners

Lily Bowen: Everyone’s favorite super mutant grandma is already an experienced shepherdess in Jacobstown, and she’s more than willing to tear some night stalkers apart to keep her herd safe. If that’s not love beyond the norm for wasteland livestock, I don’t know what is. She’s probably given all of her bighorners names after the characters in the television reruns she used to watch on holotape in Vault 17, like Grace and Audrey and Lucille. 

Brahmin

Raul Tejada: Actually spent a decent part of his pre-war life living on a ranch, so he knows that most brahmin don’t deserve being labeled “irritable” just because people don’t know how to read their body language. I think he’d follow wild brahmin herds around a bit on a whim and keep them from coming to any harm, especially the little ones. He gives them names like the cattle he grew up with, Corazon and Gordo and Blanca. 

Rose of Sharon Cassidy: Doesn’t truck with the wild herds, but she knows that part of the success of a caravan lies with how well they treat their pack animals. All of her caravan’s brahmin have names - Penny, Magic and Sprinkles - and she’s careful to pair them up with drivers who are patient and work well with their various personalities. 

Cats

Butch DeLoria: While Butch ultimately decided to leave Vault 101 behind, I don’t think he would ever truly lose his fear of radroaches after what they did to his mom. Having a little friend to warm his bunk in Rivet City and pounce on intruders would probably set his mind at ease, maybe a black tomcat with one ear named Pepper. He might even gift his mom a kitten when he next comes to visit. 

Star Paladin Cross: I don’t think Cross much sees the use of an animal that doesn’t contribute to the community it lives in, like most of the Brotherhood of Steel. Cats, however, are excellent at pest control, even if the rats are bigger nowadays. I think she’d give the resident cats at the Citadel some pets in passing, and she’d smile when she has to extract playful kittens from inside her power armor frame. She’s especially fond of the cat colony’s matriarch, a scarred old tabby named Gemma. 

Curie: Upon her transition into a synth body, Curie is overjoyed with most animals and their new willingness to approach her for attention. She especially loves cats because she can pick them up and better feel their fur and purring. Her favorite cat is an orange stray in Diamond City that she calls Claude. 

Piper Wright: A companion for Nat when she’s out adventuring, an unbiased friend to bounce the latest opinion piece off of before going to print, and a lap-warmer for when you’re typing up the latest article about the exploits of the Minutemen - what’s not to like? The Wright family cat is a slippery, elegant calico named Sugar Bomb. 

Preston Garvey: While the Minutemen forts and settlements definitely lean more toward keeping dogs around for security purposes, I think Preston likes his pets quieter and less likely to bowl you over in excitement. The one most likely to sleep with him in his bunk at Sanctuary is a grumpy gray gentleman named Anchovy. 

Deathclaws

Veronica Santangelo: If anyone is crazy enough to swipe a deathclaw egg from a nest and try to hatch, rear and train a personal killing machine named Izzy, it’s Veronica. This will probably just alienate her from her Brotherhood chapter even more, but I’m sure she would take special care to make sure that her usual Mojave Wasteland haunts take a peek through a scope to see if the approaching deathclaw has a human on its back before taking a shot. 

Dogs

Clover: I don’t think Clover gets out beyond Paradise Falls much, so the only animals she’s used to are the dogs the raiders bring around when passing through. She probably has favorites among the usual visitors and enjoys tossing them bits of meat when she’s allowed to get away from Eulogy and Crimson. If liberated, she’d probably get at least three of her own dogs to watch over her while she sleeps: One small dog to carry with her, a Pekingese or Pomeranian descendant named Coco, and two large dogs to follow through on intimidation and protection, a mastiff named Rock and a Doberman descendant named Roll. 

Jericho: Jericho doesn’t deserve a dog but he’d probably have one around anyway to sniff out caps caches and hidden loot after he’s shot everyone in the vicinity. Some slinky beagle mix named Dewey, probably. 

Fawkes: I don’t think Fawkes would be picky at all about what kind of dog he’d have. He strikes me as the type who would adopt any half-friendly mutt he ran across. I do think he would have a bit of a soft spot for friendlier mutant hounds, though, and maybe view their mutated circumstances as similar to his own. He’d also be absolutely amazing at playing fetch. Just imagine how far he could lob a stick or ball. All of his dogs would have literary names too, like Byron and Agatha and Edgar. 

Craig Boone: Though he’s a bit of a prodigy at sniping, Boone knows his limitations when it comes to spotting hidden enemies on the horizon. I can see him having a hound dog at his side to find the more elusive ones and help him get rid of them faster. Maybe a bloodhound mutt named Bravo. 

Cait: Doesn’t like people, but she adores dogs. Having had the life where she’s been abused, exploited and forced into slavery, she’s keenly aware that those like the ones who took advantage of her treat dogs much the same. She’s very protective of any dog she encounters and is very likely to punch you in the face if you so much as look at one wrong. She’d probably name any pup she adopted Lucky. 

Hancock: Honestly, he’s just a fan of any animal that is happy to hang out with you whether you’re drunk, high, fighting raiders or patrolling downtown Boston. The Goodneighbor strays know him as the guy who always has mirelurk jerky in his pockets. His favorite is a rough-and-tumble, black-and-white spotted cattle dog descendant that he cheekily calls King George. 

Robert MacCready: He’s not quick to trust dogs, but once he’s sure they’re not a threat, they’re one of the few critters around which he’ll relax completely. He’s still a little wary of them around Duncan, but any dog that’s a part of his family is more or less his son’s permanent babysitter. 

Nick Valentine: Dogmeat is also basically his dog. The two have a history of working cases together, with Dogmeat just turning up whenever a trail goes cold and leading Nick to the evidence he needs to reopen his investigation. Nick doesn’t know how or why Dogmeat does it, but he’s not about to ruin a good thing. 

Strong: I don’t think he would turn down a ferocious mutant hound as a friend. He’d probably feed it mole rats and call it something like Killer. 

Foxes

Beckett: This former raider has a love-hate relationship with a fox that keeps going through his trash. He affectionately calls him Lil’ Bastard. 

Sofia Daguerre: Having crashed back to an earth she doesn’t recognize, I think Sofia would be tickled that the foxes of Appalachia have basically stayed the same despite the bombs. I can see her leaving dinner scraps out on her porch for one that she sometimes spots in the foliage, and slowly coaxing the critter to come into the light. She names her Scarlett once she finally convinces her to eat out of her hand. 

Mega sloths

Settler forager: I would not be at all surprised if this man ran into a mega sloth in the Mire and decided to try befriending it. The creature, probably surprised at this old guy’s nerve, decided to accept the handful of leaves he offered and grew slowly more fond of the guy’s persistence. It doesn’t know its name is Fergus but it does know that if a human is wearing overalls, it’s probably not a threat. 

Mole rats

Deacon: Alright, hear me out. Deacon has a fondness for underdogs, and mole rats are about as underdog as they come. I think Deacon thinks these little guys are cute despite their wrinkles and buck teeth, and I think he sees the value in having a tunneling pet that likes to collect shiny things. One of his deep cover hideouts is in an old tunnel system in the northern Commonwealth, where he hangs out with a young mole rat named Henry. 

Owls

Raider punk: This radio operator got wind of an abandoned nest of owlets in Appalachia early on in his career and, being the nearest to the report, decided to rescue the little guys. Now he has three owls that occasionally drop in at his camp to hoot and accept handouts: Nona, Decima and Morta. While he’s still fond of them, he’s usually disappointed that they aren’t the Mothman coming to visit. 

Rad chickens

Yasmin Chowdhury: Ever the opportunistic cook, she picked up the practice of raising chickens from the settlers at Foundation and has four hens of her own: Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme. The “ladies,” as she refers to them, give her a constant stream of eggs for omelets. 

Ravens

Settler wanderer: This gal has an affinity with birds, who are always on the move like her. She admires their ability to be untethered and let the wind take them far and wide. Nevertheless, she likes to scatter corn when they come close to her on the road, and formed a sort of friendship with a particularly handsome specimen that she calls Tornado. 

Wolves

Old Longfellow: This guy is the epitome of the meme about dads not wanting pets and then instantly falling in love with whatever animal enters their life. He probably found an injured wolf pup in his travels around the island and took pity on it, nursing it back to health in his cabin. It’s still got a bit of a twisted paw, but follows him around and listens like any other dog and answers to the name Lamoine. 

Yao guai

Porter Gage: I bet this guy adopted an orphaned bear cub and raised it by hand. Now it’s so big that even if Gage thinks he’s an easy target for other raiders due to his age, he’s much less likely to get singled out than he thinks because he has a yao guai following him around like a puppy. The bear’s name is Fuzzy Wuzzy. It has no hair. 

No pets, thanks

Charon: Too likely to accidentally wind up in the line of fire. 

Sergeant RL-3: Too easily corrupted by Communist influences. 

Arcade Gannon: Too much time spent getting in your way. 

Codsworth: Too likely to make messes. 

Paladin Danse: Too many wasted resources. 

X6-88: Too much of a liability. 

Ada: Too easy to lose when on the move. 

Solomon Hardy: Too unsanitary. 

[maxanor]

actually that makes a lot of sense! I personally always feel like i have to watch the content before the fanfiction because otherwise i'll be super confused (also i'm just nosey). But big kudos for you for doing that, I wish I could cause then I'd just be vibing too!

My favorite stranger things character would have to be Will, I just really like him. He reminds me of me when I was younger (although personality wise, according to my mum, I am most like Max, who is incidentally my second favorite character). But I do love the characters a lot (even mike the bastard (affectionate).

I am very picky about foods as well, mostly texture-wise. I hate pineapple on pizza, but I do eat green peppers on pizza which is delicious. what's your favorite food?

What other shows besides 9-1-1 do you enjoy to that level that makes you feel unhinged? What characters make you want to simultaneously scream into a pillow and cry tears of joy for how much you love them?

i think once u read enough fics u pick up the lore pretty well, plus it tends to be stuff i see on my dash anyway so i'm familiar with the characters!

i'm also very picky with textures! hmm my favorite food is def pasta, pretty much any type lmao, what about you??

oh dear god. well, outer banks def makes me feel absolutely insane. it's not a great show by any means and it has so many flaws but god i love that silly little boat show so much <3 i'm not looking forward to s3 tho bc i know they're gonna put together a ship i really dislike, but alas!! i'm still gonna watch it and just make up my fun little headcanons bc i know the characters better than the writers <3 my favorite show of all time is spartacus but i don't think a lot of ppl have heard of that/watched it, but i loveeeee period dramas!!! what's your fav genre to watch??

[costellos]

a/n: I realized that I received a lot of requests for Bucci Gang hugs in my last ask game so!! I extended all of of my responses and added descriptions for Abbacchio and Giorno. enjoy ya hugs with ya boys!

tw: mentions of Fugo’s backstory

❥ ┋ ❝ bucci gang, if they like hugs, & how they hug their partner!

bruno bucciarati.

yes, but don’t do it in public. Bucciarati has a reputation to maintain as a public figure. even still, he loves hugs more than you’d think. his hugs feel oddly paternal. he wraps one arm around your back, with his other hand resting on the back of your head, as if he was protecting you from the world. he always hugs you tightly but not too tightly; enough to avoid squeezing you. you always feel a sense of comfort when you’re in his arms. Bucciarati does too, because you can always hear his heartbeat relax as you lay your head on his chest.

leone abbacchio.

while Abbacchio will do it for you, he typically doesn’t like hugs. he’s still not ready to be so close to someone despite your dating for months. likewise, he doesn’t feel like he deserves the cozy feelings that come with a hug. yet every time you wrap your arms around his neck, Abbacchio can’t help but bury his face in your shoulder. his hugs are tight, desperate for every bit of affection you can offer him. his breathing becomes uneven. his touch is needy. and when you whisper “I love you,” he pulls you just a little bit closer.

giorno giovanna.

Giorno is indifferent toward hugs. he knows that it’s something you like, though, so he’s happy to indulge you. it’s just... he’s not very good at it. it’s a result of growing up without much physical attention. Giorno’s hugs are always too stiff. you can tell that he’s hesitating whenever he embraces you. but you notice that, with time, his breathing relaxes when he feels you wrap his arms around him. he may not be good at it, but that breathy sigh and lazy grin tell you that he enjoys it as much as you do.

guido mista.

it’s no secret that Mista loves hugs. even before you started going out, you often found the gunslinger’s arm swung around your shoulders. hence, you can imagine how much more attention he gives you after you became exclusive. Mista hugs you tightly and lovingly, his cheek against yours, his arms resting at your hips. he loves any opportunity where he can be physically affectionate with you. despite that, he’ll sometimes catch you off-guard by poking your sides. bastard.

narancia ghirga.

yes, but only if he’s close to you. so considering you’re his partner, he loves hugging you! Narancia likes embracing you from behind the most. he often comes behind you quietly, and when you least expect it, you find a pair of arms wrapped around your waist. he loves when you squeal as he does so! he uses it as an excuse to see your smile (even if it’s a mean way to greet you). once you’ve calmed down, Narancia will rest his head on your shoulder, a satisfied hum on his lips.

pannacotta fugo.

Fugo does like hugs, but 1) he has to trust you a lot to do so and 2) he’s really picky about when he receives them. regarding the latter, he’s not always up for embraces. he’s not big on physical attention, especially after his incident with his professor. that said, his hugs tend to be quite stiff and rigid. you can get him to ease into it if you bury your face in his neck. he likes that gesture more than he’ll admit. something about feeling like he’s being relied on. you can’t see it, but Fugo’s eyelids lower every time you do it.

[clairelutra]

...you know? i thought i attached to daine because she’s the most outright feminine of the tortall heroines, but the more i talk about her, the more i realize she’s actually just... really complicated and that’s so much fun.

forced to grow up too fast by an irresponsible promiscuous mother and decrepit grandfather in a village that kept their children away from her and told her no respectable man would ever marry her mother’s bastard, her only friends are made through a power she had no words for that made her an outcast even beyond just having no father. bandits kill said mother and grandfather, along with most of her homestead and other friends, when she’s only just barely thirteen, and her response is to bury them and then run away with a wolf pack who help her murder the bandits. the villagers arrive and promise her safety, only to shoot her when she comes out of hiding and tell her she needs to be put down like a damn rabid bear, forcing her to run through the mountains, naked, in the middle of winter, for a literal week.

and then, when she comes to her senses again, she goes home. she packs up her clothes. she travels to the capital and starts looking for a job. she’s still thirteen.

like!! the sheer capacity for getting her shit together and taking care of business? is insane. “if i see monsters, i see monsters. i need work, mum.”

and then after that, what she wants most in the world is just... to heal. numair looks at her and thinks ‘this girl wants to heal’ and he’s right. she’s curious about lots of things, and animals especially. she’ll feed just about anything. she likes babies and has no idea how to deal with children, at least at first. she’s pragmatic to the point of distance and yet so incredibly soft. she hates wearing skirts but cares about her appearance. in general, she cares and cares and cares and cares.

she’s preternaturally good with a bow and gasps at the implication that she would know how to use a sword because that’s ‘a noble’s weapon’. the thought of calling the first female knight in centuries by her first name makes her wince. she is forever relieved when she can tell someone works for a living, not because she thinks little of nobles, but just because they’re nobles.

she’s snarky and dry and playful, too. she loves alliteration to express her feelings—”mouse manure”, “odd’s bobs!”, “what’s that got to do with the price of peas in persopolis”, “my heart bleeds buttermilk”. she attentive and affectionate (physically, verbally) and perceptive and aloof and picky.

like, she’s vulnerable and stubborn, yes, but also she’s diffident and prickly and pragmatic and hates crying because ‘she can’t take care of business if she’s being a baby’ and kind and gentle and so so so sweet. i love her. i love her so much. ;-;

[kylosupremeimagines]

Dating Headcanons (Kylo, Adam, Clyde, and Charlie)

Kylo: 

He would be a bit reluctant at first to love someone, mainly because he has been led to believe that he doesn’t deserve it. On another note, he would still attach easily to someone when they show him some sort of kindness that he hasn’t had in a while being within the First Order. That does not mean he will fall in love just as quickly. That will take a while, so don’t expect anything quick with him in terms of a relationship forming. You have to prove to him first that you care about him. 

One of his biggest worries in a relationship would be being left or betrayed by you. Most of the people that he's ever really cared for, at least from his view of things, has done something to let him down. His parents neglected him a bit as a child all caught up in their work and sent him off to Luke, almost never coming to visit him at the temple. His own uncle was prepared to kill him. And his fellow padawan has been far too distant from him as if they feared what he was capable of. He’s afraid that will happen again, so you’d have to forgive his worries and do what you could to reassure him he’s truly loved. 

He wouldn’t be able to help himself getting extremely protective. Once he cares about something, which itself is very unlikely, he’s going to fight to keep it in his life. It doesn’t matter if Snoke claims that you’re distracting him. Kylo will fight for and protect you with all of his life to the point he would die for you. You’re what gives him life after feeling so loved for too long. It brings a light to him he thought had been extinguished; you would become his anchor in life to keep him from becoming the monster that his master has tried to mold him into. 

In fact, Kylo is willing to kill Snoke for you. There would be a high possibility the bastard would threaten to hurt you or even do it without warning, hence Kylo will kill Snoke if it means protecting you. It goes a long way seeing how Kylo could go that far for you. Although for some time Snoke warped his sense of self and belonging, you changed everything. He will never be who he used to be, the old Ben Solo, but there is always room for him to grow again as a person with you. In fact, you would be a great influence on him.

When things do change and he can really put some more focus onto the relationship, such as settling down, he would do what he could to get his hands on the Varykino Estate on Naboo that’s been in his family, his paternal grandmother’s side. It’s a large estate right in Lake Country. It’s private so no one would be able to bother you, and it’s so secret and he’s determined to keep it hidden from anyone who may want him dead, hence it would be pretty safe too. It’s the perfect place to settle down and perhaps have children with one day. 

As much as he would want kids eventually, once he changes, he would never in a million years think about pressuring you into having a baby. You are always going to be his main priority in his life, so children or not, he will always love you. However, if you do have children, he will be there every step of the way. Adoption or biological, he will do what he can to make it the best experience you could have. And being in Varykino would be such a great way to be able to raise a family with him, or just grow old together with and enjoy your lives together in what he hopes to be one day undisturbed peace. 

Kylo would be a surprisingly good cook, so don’t expect some meals prepared by the High Command Kitchen. Instead, he’s going to be doing most of the cooking for you two. As the Commander, maybe Supreme Leader, of the First Order, he’ll have access to only the best ingredients in all of the galaxy. He can cook you just about anything that you want and because he’s not picky, he’d be more than happy to switch to a vegetarian diet if you prefer to eat such food. You’d be amazed at the range that he can cook and just how well he can do it. But you won’t be disappointed when you get to try his food! 

With his own personal star ships, from being in the First Order, and some time off he’s able to take when things don’t get too bad, he would take you traveling all across the galaxy. Kylo knows of plenty of amazing places to vacation or even just go to see for a day. He’d want to take you all over. So if there’s any place in particular that you’d die to see, then he’d take you there in  a heartbeat. In fact, he also has a handful of planets he will eventually surprise you with. Even if it’s considered to be the Smuggler’s moon of the galaxy, his favorite would be Nar Shaddaa, with all of the hotels and casinos. It’s a great place to just unwind and enjoy some crazy adventures.

Adam:

Adam wonders what the point of dating is if you don’t try to help one another grow as well as stay committed to the relationship.  He’s dealt with plenty of them that have just wasted away, which he later accepts is partially his own fault. Even when you don’t like what he’s doing, he’s always going to be trying to help you grow into a better person, and hopes that you’ll do the same for him. 

Even if he loves sex, you don’t need to worry about him cheating you so long as you’re loyal to him. He will put in just as much effort into the relationship as you do, so as long as you're loyal, he will be just as committed to the relationship. If he gets any impression that you might be cheating on him, he’s going to come right to you and confront you about it. But don’t worry, he’s going to give you a proper chance to explain yourself. If you do end up cheating, that would be something to destroy the relationship. If someone doesn’t show commitment in a relationship he’s in, especially through cheating, that’s the last straw. 

There may be times where you two fight, perhaps getting into a nasty one, but in the end he will give into immense guilt. When it’s him making an attempt to apologize, he will do his best to make it up for you. He would probably surprise you with some of your favorite food and candy, maybe rent a movie, and try to set up a nice little date night. He’ll do his best to apologize to you and remind you just how much he’s in love with you. The way he says it may turn out cheesy, but his words are nothing but the truth. 

Out of any of the four, you’re more likely to end up facing a surprise pregnancy with him. In no way would he want to break up because of one, even if it’s early in the relationship. He’ll be ready to support you as a father. If you’re in the position where you’d rather terminate the pregnancy, as much as he would be disappointed about losing the baby, he would support your decision. It would hit him hard a bit, actually. But if you want to keep them, he will jump right on the father train and be the best damn parent and partner that he could be. 

Adam is going to be a man who enjoys PDA. If you allow him, he will love to be affectionate with you out in public. He’ll sometimes tease you just to see how worked up he can get you, maybe hoping it’ll lead to something extremely steamy back at home later. He’ll kiss you any opportunity he can where it isn’t inappropriate. He especially loves slapping your ass in a tease. However, if you’re uncomfortable with all of that out in public. Then he will eventually learn to control himself and tone down the PDA. At the very least, he’ll try to steal a kiss every now and again, and hold your hand when he can. 

His dates won’t ever really be anything too fancy. Why go all expensive when you could head to your best local diner and go for a walk around the city? Maybe hit up a fun attraction like a museum or amusement park? In fact, the very first date, he took you to his favorite diner because he was excited to share such a thing with you. At least once a month, on the same day as your first date, he’d take you there for lunch or dinner. However, only on special occasions would he want to bring you out to a fancy restaurant, like for your birthday or an anniversary. 

He was a little hesitant to introduce you to his family just because to him, they’re a bit odd. You would obviously know his sister as well as her baby, who loves you to death and enjoys when the two of you come to babysit (If you’re willing to help Adam with that.) His grandmother would adore you. With how much she’s seen him come in and out of relationships, she’s happy to see him with someone like you, who she would have the feeling is the perfect match for her grandchild. 

Being in a relationship with him means you’re going to have a very active sex life, don’t ever expect otherwise. Of course, he’s willing to chill a bit if it becomes much for you, but don’t think he’ll completely tone down. He’ll try just about anything in bed, so if you have an out there kink, he’s more than likely going to accept and try it out with you. He’d even love to go to a sex shop and look at some “toys” with you if that’s what you were into. Not that he doesn’t respect an Asexual, but if you’re not into all of this intimacy, you’d probably be best with someone else, even if you love him romantically. 

Clyde:

Clyde will only date with the idea that he will make a life with you. He doesn’t want to waste his time on a relationship that he doesn’t believe will last. It’s actually part of the reason why he’s never really been in many long term relationships. If he realizes his partner isn’t in the relationship for the same reason, without a doubt at least, he would be quick to break up with them no matter how much it hurts. So as long as you’re always loving for him and never give any signs that you don’t want to stay with him for the long term, don’t expect the relationship to last.

He loves to have you over and make some drinks for you and show off some of his best ones. Clyde was so excited to show you how he could make drinks with one hand, one of his best party tricks. If you’d allow him, he hopes that you will let him show you a thing or two. Perhaps for a date, he’ll come over to your place with some things to make drinks with and work with you to make something new. And if it turns out great, he’d put it on the Menu of the bar and name it after you, as cheesy as that may sound.

He wouldn’t be too sure how soon he should introduce you to his entire family, though if he’s certain he loves you, he would be excited to bring you to them. It would start out with a visit with his siblings and soon, a whole family gathering depending on the time of year. He would hope to bring you to a family cookout Because he believes his family is at its best at those. There is plenty of amazing food as well as activities that the family does. 

As much as he wants a child with you, you could expect the first addition to the family to be a dog. Clyde grew up a dog person and has been wanting to get a nice big shelter dog for the longest time, so he would want to get a dog with you when the time was right. As much as he’d want to surprise you with one, he would make sure that it’s what you want. Plus, he’d love to bring you along with him to the shelter to pick one out. If you so happen to be allergic, there’s always the choice for a hypoallergenic dog! He’d want one so much that he’s willing to take the time to find one to fit your allergenic needs just to have a dog! 

Even if he could handle himself when sometimes insults him for his arm, or lack thereof, he would fall in love with you all over again if you step in for him. There’s just something about when you get protective over him that turns him on. Watching you tell them off is something he loves. But it also shows just how much you care about him. Being reassured that you love him so much is one of the best things that could happen to Clyde. 

Despite the fact that he shouldn't be ashamed about it or feel guilty for it, you’re going to have to get used to him living through his trauma. If there’s one thing he’s going to love about you above all else, it will be when you’re supportive of him. There may be times that he wakes up from a nightmare or something triggers him from his time at war. So you’ve got to be ready to swoop in and comfort him. Maybe eventually, he’ll go see a therapist with you there so that you can talk it out with him and better understand the PTSD he’s suffering from. But in the end, as long as you’re supportive of him, no matter how, he will appreciate it greatly. 

Since he’s such a big family man, you should expect him to want a family in the future. He won’t try to force it on you too soon, but he’s going to want children eventually. We can be real, he would have such a breeding kink. The thought of having his own child exhilarates him, and he would be the best man to have there through pregnancy and raising the child. Though, Clyde would be more than willing to adopt a child. He doesn’t think family necessarily needs to be of blood. As long as he can build a family with you, on matter how big, he will be the happiest man in the world. 

Clyde will treat you perfectly, from rushing to the store to get something while you’re sick or getting up early to cook you breakfast. He may express his love through words, but it’s really going to be his actions that show his true love for you. He’s there’s to do anything for you even if you don’t expect it from him. After all, when you give him the world, he’s going to give you the whole damn galaxy. He’s the best partner that you could ever ask for, and the best man to raise a family with eventually. It’s obviously how much of a family man that he is just by his actions. 

Charlie:

One of his biggest fears going into dating again after his divorce is how others may feel about him having a child. It can prove to be a turn off to people, no matter if he has full custody of Henry or not. He goes into a relationship keeping Henry in mind. No matter what, his son will be the priority, as if he needs to make a sacrifice for the relationship that limits the time he can spend with Henry or move far away, he just won’t do it. So you’d have to keep that in mind if you’re going to start dating

One of the values he wants to keep all throughout the relationship is being able to respect one another and be willing to make sacrifices when needed. He has things that he wants to do that may need you to adjust to but he’s also willing to do the same. After the marriage with Nicole, he’s going to listen to your wants and needs and would be more likely to change something just for you. He’d hate to drive you away by making the same mistakes that he did the last time. Know that he will be there to listen to you no matter what it’s about. 

If you move in together, he hopes that you would come to stay at his place as he’s got all of his belongings there, including everything that Henry has. It’s got two bedrooms so it’s perfect. If you have things you want to bring when you move in, he could move some things around. Even if there’s some furniture you want to bring, such as your couch because you prefer it to the one that he has, then he could get rid of his own instead. He hopes that you’re quick to feel at home and he’d do what he could to make it feel like your home. 

If you’re not too familiar with Henry, then he would slowly introduce you to his son. Considering the kid had no problem getting used to Nicole having a new partner, he would get attached to you quickly. It started on the day that Charlie takes you two out into down for a day out so that you two could really get to know one another. Henry has no problem that his father is with another person and, in fact, loves having you around. With how open he is with you, Henry may want to spend some time with just you, as he would see you as a new role model quite quickly. 

Birthdays with Charlie will be the best. He takes them very seriously and will do so many special things for you on that day. Making sure that he knows so much about you, he will get you a few presents that are perfect for you based on your likes and dislikes. He’ll also take you out to your favorite restaurant, no matter how fancy it is or not. Charlie will also make sure that he doesn’t have Henry that night so that you don’t need to feel guilty about getting steamy in bed. There are so many things that he could do for you and he’ll try to fit as many of them as he can into the day. Expect the entire day to be full of things to do with him!

Even if he has some hobbies of his own, he would want to learn about some of the things that you enjoy doing. As a part of wanting to be more open to what you like, he’d hope you could show him a few of your passions. If there’s anything you can do together, he would do what he could to get into them and do them with you so long as it’s not something you prefer to do on your own. This would just be his way of getting closer with you. After all, not all relationships can survive when you don't have a similar interest as your partner. 

There’s nothing he’ll appreciate like you being supportive of his work in theater and directing. Even if you don’t end up being the biggest theater fan, if you go to just one of his shows would mean the world to him. He puts so much passion into his work that he’d appreciate if you showed a little bit of interest in it. He’s not ashamed to introduce you to all of his theater friends, maybe even bringing you along to some outings he goes to with them. He’s always got a front row seat available for you or even a spot backstage. 

If you ever want to get a pet after you’re living together, he would be pretty open to whatever you want. It doesn’t matter if it’s a rabbit, cat, dog, or even a fish. He thinks it would be great to get a pet in the house. Neither him or Henry are allergic so you could get whatever you want. Since he’s so open, he doesn’t care what species it is as long as it isn’t too unmanageable. He’d even try to help with them so that you’re not doing all the work to take care of the pet. If it’s a dog or cat especially, you may walk in on the creature cuddling in his lap while he pets them.

ok that tegu & cats idea has taken root in my brain (thank you @king-barb ): 

- newt named the tegu ceramander after the 2021 kaiju that attacked hawaii* but mostly because it almost sounds like charmander (pokemon is full of little monsters, you KNOW he played it) and he’s a red tegu; probably affectionately calls him ‘cera’

- cera loves alan purring & the stray cats. the cats do not love him  

- it is a constant struggle to keep cera out of alan’s food. tegus are not picky at all and any time cera is set on the floor (as newt cleans his cage and/or just for funsies), both hermann and alan keep a close eye on him. as pay back, alan likes to lay on the cover to his cage and steal all the warmth from the heat lamp

- speaking of alan, he’s a cornish rex that’s essentially hermann as a cat. they have the same exact attitude, which is why they get along so well. it takes a while for him to warm up to newt but eventually he gives in, especially because newt is soft and comfy to lay on

- hermann was dead set against letting newt get anything because alan is his cat but progressively got to the point where he was willing to share. but after they found a cozy little house in the boston suburbs (and after a lot of convincing) he became a bit more lax and cera happened

- the strays were a bonus with the house. they’re a neighborhood cat gang and even though newt fully understands the importance of not having such gangs around (ecological reasons & resources), he still feeds them and makes sure they’re doing alright. at first, he was secretly feeding them and trying to lie about why so much of alan’s food was gone from the bag (”cera probably stuck his head in and snarfed it down, the little mongrel” “maybe he really just doesn’t want a UTI”). but obviously, hermann found out and also started refilling their designated bowl in secret. catch them at petco at 3 am for more food

- if a door or window is left open, the strays can and will get in. alan doesn’t entirely mind them, often sharing his patch of sun in the living room with them. but they have to be careful when cera is out or he will be all over them 

- just remembered hermann is jewish (but non-practicing) so. animal hanukkah sweaters. that’s it. that’s the end of the thought

- both cera & alan get carried around like babies. and they enjoy it very much. smug little bastards love getting the sole attention of their dads 

ok i’m currently out of thoughts, mostly because i have some postman stuck in my head (which btw is a very newmann song i’d say), but watch out for more idiotic ideas
