Anything for you <3

🤧🤝👃😞 for (aged up) Y/uta Thanks to the wonderful @ithadtobesneezing for the ask~

~~~~~

🤧: What does their sneeze sound like? (Description, spelling, or both!)

I deeply subscribe to your absolutely breathtaking hc that they are breathy, vocal, whiny, and desperate. Something along the lines of "hhYIEShhhihh-! hk'eHDjzSHhhuh-! ehiHZShh'iee-! yiESHhzhiehh-!"

🤝: Do they like to be taken care of when they’re not feeling well? Or do they hate it when people fuss over them? If they do, what’s their favorite thing about being taken care of? If not, why don’t they like being taken care of? How bad would they have to be before they’d let anyone take care of them in any capacity?

Somehow.. both? It makes him feel so good to be cared for, comforted, and if it's someone he trusts, he'll absolutely melt into their embrace. Buutt... he's also so nervous about asking for it, about being a burden, so even when they offer care, he's hesitant to accept it. Even if he's deeply unwell.

He prefers to act like he's okay, even when he's not, unless it's someone who's earned his trust, and showed him it's okay to ask for what he needs. In those cases, he craves hugs so much. Cuddling too, just anything where they're embracing him and he gets to snuggle into their chest and just be held <3 (also a few times people cooked his favourite meals for him and he cried <3)

👃: In general, how sensitive is their nose? Can something like a certain flower or smell make them sneeze even if they’re not allergic to it? Do they sneeze a lot on average, or not very much? Does their nose twitch a lot, or barely ever at all?

Not that sensitive to smells, but incredibly sensitive to touch. Strong scents won't normally make him itchy, let alone sneeze, but if you even so much as brush his nose with anything.... well you'll get a reaction~

On average he's not a super sneezy person, but given the sensitivity issue, mixed with some allergies and getting sick a lot (poor lil guy <3) it's not unusual to hear around 8 per week. (Not a ton, but if he's sick or having a reaction, you'll definitely get more)

His nose is definitely twitchy, whether by itself, or him choosing to scrunch it. He prefers to keep hands off when he can, since it's so quick to get irritated at touch, even his own. Sooo, more often then not he'll attempt to just wiggle it around to keep it from getting too itchy.

😔: What are their “tells” when they’re not feeling their best? Do they sleep more or less? Do they become easily irritated, aggressive, snap at little things? Or do they withdraw and become quieter, cry at the drop of a hat, stay in the background? What’s the one surefire way that one of their loved ones would be able to tell that they’re sick?

One tell is the bags under his eyes basically tripling. He has some trouble sleeping at the best of times, and when he's sick it always gets worse. Him yawning a lot more is also a tell, as well as finding him wandering aimlessly as if in a daze.

When he's unwell, he does get irritated more easily, but only with himself </3. Why am I sick, why can't I sleep, I'm bothering everyone, etc. Because of this he usually gets a bit more withdrawn, afraid of annoying people. You'll notice his attitude towards himself switch to an even harsher tone.

He's also one of the people who gets emotional quickly anyways, and when he's unwell, or fevered, it's so much more intense for him. It's not unusual to catch him swiping a few tears away, a glare aimed towards the floor that you can tell is meant to be aimed at himself.

Surefire way for loved ones to tell he's sick is the uneven quality of his voice. Not that it's harsher, or deeper, but between his throat, and chest, and the emotional state, you'll find his tone dropped to almost a whisper, barely able to be heard.
