πŸ’ for metastruck? :D

6. πŸ’ What is each person’s love language (words of affirmation, acts of service, giving gifts, quality time, and physical touch)?
i feel like starstruck's love language (perhaps unsurprisingly a bit like mine) is "all of the above". she would adapt to whatever her partner was putting down, but she would enjoy receiving and giving all kinds of affection!!! as a waddle dee she's best at acts of service, with bleed through from words of affirmation and physical touch.
for metastruck in particular, far and away it is mutual quality time and acts of service (from him).
meta knight himself is a little bit aloof; not just to her, though his initial unease and distrust of her certainly doesn't help that matter. he feels a lot and very deeply, but he tends to try and keep it close to the chest. he's not really fooling anyone.
there is precious little she could do for him that he can't or doesn't prefer to do for himself. gifts are hard to get for someone who's already so famous and beloved, and he gets a bit weird about it if you give him something he actually likes.
but what he really enjoys from her is that she not only lets him speak, she listens and seems genuinely interested. maybe it's because she hasn't heard it a thousand times before like the others, or maybe it's because she's just a good listener, or maybe it's because she shares his passions for stars and history and Sword. they can sit for hours and hours together just talking, and once he gives up on being standoffish and gets closer to her, he finds her startlingly easy to talk to.
and equally important for his ego; she's astoundingly easy to impress!
once he 'catches feelings' about the whole thing, he tries extra hard to tend her needs and awe her with lavish night-time flights around popstar. i imagine it's all very knightly of him and that he's frantically fighting it tooth and claw every step of the way.
