🫣🐕 for the ask meme!!

I WAS HOPING SOMEONE WOULD ASK THESE... thank you mj o7 these ended up being kinda long [well. the first one was] so its going under a readmore so it doesnt absolutely demolish the dashboard of whoever comes across it

🫣 - Who stumbled the most with their feelings around the other? How much did the other person notice?

this one's fun. i think sniper definitely stumbled more with his feelings, even though for all intents and purposes he was the more confident of the two... when fossey realized her feelings she was pretty resigned to the idea that she wasnt very desirable or at the very least Not His Type, so he didnt really make any moves until she actually had reason to think he might like them back. if not for sniper returning those feelings the crush wouldve probably gone away honestly!

but sniper... though i doubt he was ever too inexperienced with romance/fossey certainly isnt his First love, i think the fact that his feelings kinda snuck up on him is what ended up getting him. usually when he finds himself having those kinds of feelings for someone, its someone hes going to kill [and then probably later be killed By, rinse, respawn, repeat], so hes able to repress it more because they're also an Opponent. but fossey is very much Not a mercenary, in fact he bruises like a peach and he walks around in fucking penny loafers, so hes really quite the opposite of who sniper usually finds... shall we say, chemistry with. because of this, he doesnt really know how to act around them, and as a result in those early days of his crush pre-relationship he probably tried to avoid them more than anything because he didnt wanna make a fool of himself [which, in the sparse interactions they Did have, he was often sure he did (even when it was something almost impossible to notice. like holding the "o" on "good morning" slightly longer than usual)].

fossey noticed the change in behavior but, seeing as they didnt think of themself as ever having a chance in the first place, they didnt register it as "oh hes being awkward because he likes me" and saw it more as "he doesnt wanna see me". they went to apologize after a couple of weeks of this, since they thought theyd Done something, and that was kinda when sniper realized he was being even more stupid by being avoidant and started just. trying to play it cool. basically it was this image [sniper pov]

🐕- Do they have any pets together? If one of them had a pet from before their relationship how well does the pet get along with their partner? Do they have the pets approval or does said pet sit in between them and their partner any time they try to make a move?

considering their living situations [sniper lives out of his camper + fossey has a little apartment for herself], i dont think they have any pets Together, but both of them do love animals very much. i can absolutely see sniper as having some old family dog back home who is miraculously still very alert despite being like 17. idk why thats just the vibes... unsure if he would ever meet fossey but i think it would be quite funny

i dont think fossey would have a pet [they worry about not being responsible enough due to mental health struggles + being so busy with work], but he loooves cats very much... i really like the idea of him feeding any strays that might hang around teufort and theres probably some near the base that have kinda become regulars + they all really like fossey... at first sniper thinks its a bit stupid [hes more of a dog person + hes sure that soldiers raccoons would have Opinions on the matter, plus maybe the cats arent the biggest fan of him] but he sees fossey petting one of the strays one day and hes just like Fuck. i get it now.......

unrelated but i love this video + this ask made me think about it so im tagging it on at the end here. please enjoy weewee as payment for how long this ended up being
