HGGHG THEM 💚💚💚

who hogs the duvet

5 it's absolutely 5. 7 tends to kick off any blankets in her sleep so it's not an issue with her but 9 will frequently wake up in the middle of the night having a "where blankie" moment before having to sleepily snatch some back.

who texts/rings to check how their day is going

9 loves loves loves leaving little notes around Home for them to stumble on throughout the day. 5 is more likely to verbally check in.

who is the most creative when it comes to gifts

Definitely 9. He's CONSTANTLY finding little bits-and-baubs in the environment that remind him of them, but the best gifts are the ones he looks for on purpose. Explores a museum and gives 7 a new skull and feathers of every color and she nearly cries. Manages to find viable marigold seeds and gives them to 5 who cries outright. Etc etc.

who gets up first in the morning

5 is a total early bird and is not quiet about it. 9 thinks it's endearing, while 7 gets nearly homicidal. 5'll be humming happily right at sunrise like "RISE AND SHINE, YOU TWO! How are we this morning <3" and 7s got the blanket over her head and is just "mrrrnmnnghbnn".

who suggests new things in bed

It's 9. The creativity is all encompassing m'kay.

who cries at movies

5 and 9 both get emotional watching sappy stuff, 7'll maintain that she isn't effected by any of it but every now and again they'll catch a little hiccup from her during movie time.

who gives unprompted massages

9 gets really touchy-feely in quiet moments and will often be gently caressing 5's eye patch or 7's back. They both greatly appreciate it.

who fusses over the other when they're sick

5's healer tendencies means he often goes mother-hen mode at the slightest provocation. 9 will absentmindedly rub at his shoulder and 5 will appear out of nowhere like "are you okay do you need me to look at it 2 could redo it for you" and 9's just "honey i'm fine".

who gets jealous easiest

Not technically jealousy, more a mix of competitiveness and overwhelming love, but 7 will frequently see 5 and 9 carrying each other and have a moment before insisting on carrying them both at the same time. Her knees are wobbling but she's doing it anyway.

who has the most embarrassing taste in music

They all like similar music (small selection to choose from to be fair 😔) but 9 is the one to unabashedly belt along to his favorite songs. He's completely tone deaf but it doesn't matter.

who collects something unusual

9 collects bottle caps, but they have to have come from bottles that had been opened by humans. At one point 7 gives him one she took off a bottle herself and he explains that he only likes "the ones that saw life".

who takes the longest to get ready

9 for sure. Very frequently 5 will ask him if he wants to go scouting and 9 will be like "absolutely! just a sec let me get my stuff" and then it's a half hour later and he doesn't even have his cloak on all the way.

whose the most tidy and organized

5 loves keeping his stuff as clean as possible (old self soothing habit from when it was the only thing he had control over), 7's fairly neat due to her simply not having much in the way of possessions (still hasn't gotten super used to having a set place to live), and 9 is a packrat (ADHD).

who gets the most excited about the holidays

9 LOVES holidays he thinks they're a wonderful creation. New year's is his favorite "classical" one, but at his insistence the whole group eventually come up with a few of their own.

who is the big spoon/little spoon

9 usually ends up being the big spoon since he's the tallest of the trio, but the man completely melts when he gets to be the little spoon. 5 is perfectly content either way as long as he has a hand to hold onto. 7 doesn't so much "spoon" as she does "backpack". She'll be asleep sighing happily meanwhile she's got 9 in a full-nelson.

who gets most competitive

7 is no longer allowed to participate in group game night after hurling an Iron monopoly token into the rafters.

who starts the most arguments

5 and 7 will bicker sometimes about whatever while 9 will hangout in the sidelines to mediate if he feels like it's necessary. The twins will often sit with him and at one point he made a semi-joking comment of "well there's one thing at least I'm glad I missed out on for those years" that the twins find VERY funny.

who suggests a pet

9 daydreams about having a big dog (proportional to them) all the time. Neither of his partners have any issue with that. They do however, have an issue with him bringing in various bugs from outside.

what couples tradition do they have

Given normal wear and tear, their repair stitches need to be replaced over time. 9 refused to throw his original shoulder stitches out, and now whenever any of them need to replace a stitch the other put in, they hang onto the old thread, tying all the pieces together.

what other couple do they hang out with

Often chat with 1 and 2. 2 is of course always delighted to talk with his family. 1 would perhaps get more enjoyment out of the conversations if 5 wasn't constantly staring a hole through him.

how do they spend time together as a couple

Lots of exploring in the temperate months, along with gardening. 9 and 7 both spar regularly for fun and practice, something 5 is always content to watch (until it gets too rough for his liking). In the winter the whole group hunkers down inside, and the trio often spends whole days in bed in those months.

who made the first move

9. At one point he blurted out an "I love you" to 5 that was responded with "oh 9 i love you too we all love you!" to which 9 had to clarify what he meant. OH moments abound. Mutual feelings also abound. After that revelation 9 essentially grabs 7 like "you too <3".

who brings flowers home

Being the most apt to explore the wilderness 7 is the one to bring home flowers she has picked. 5 will put together (tiny) arrangements for inside Home. 9 likes to press and dry flowers and leaves to hang onto.

who is the best cook

They don't eat of course, but 9 still loves reading recipes. Like everything else left behind he finds it all very fascinating. He'll ramble about the different meals he's been learning about and both 5 and 7 will find themselves suddenly hungry, regardless of the lack of corresponding parts.
