I have two kids and they're both so unhinged
My dog set my kitchen on fire one time
I used to have a hatman irl but he was actually the Carrot Man and he looked like the peanut butter jelly time banana except a carrot and he was a friendly sleep paralysis demon and sometimes I miss him
How did you get into Fire Emblem? I went to GameStop and was looking at the used games and I guess Awakening caught my eye.
What Fire Emblem games have you played? Genealogy, blazing blade, scared stones, some of por, sov, awakening, fates, 3h, engage. I've at least read through all of them except the tellius games. I should get on them.
First & Favorite Fire Emblem games: first was Awakening, favorite to play is fe7

Who was the first character ever to make you go “ooh I like this one in particular” and why? Can be any context and reason! Frederick because I knew I was in love with him the moment I saw his face but Cynthia in a regular context
Any Fire Emblem crushes? 😳 You know this you know it's Arvis and Travant but I do keep thinking about Raydrick recently. Wtf is wrong with me.
If you’ve played (or are familiar with) the following games, who was your first S support? Who would you S support nowadays?

Finn and Al are my OTP and I’m screaming at them finally kissing ahhhhhhhhhhh
I do wonder if Al had any former flames ? Like maybe he’s always been odd and eccentric but has anyone major showed interest in him ? He’s never been married so maybe not but I kind of wonder …….
Finn has had crushes and people he’s liked in the past too and yet I think his love for Al trumps all the formers by a lot and no one holds a candle to his affection for the magician
But the thought of Finn being heartbroken over Donna really makes my heart hurt….. I’m imagining cute little thirteen year old finn being heartbroken over his crush dating someone else and kissing Wendy to try and get over it but it probably didn’t work ahhhhhhh
Robin must’ve been there during this heartbreak and I’m glad Finn had Robin to lean on ❤️
I do wonder how Donna feels about Finn now ? Maybe she has a crush on him too but since neither acted on it, they both kind of moved along ? Maybe Donna does still like Finn ? Will we see more of her in the future ?
I also kinda wonder if we’ll see Al be jealous … we’ve seen jealous finn get upset over that waitress flirting with Al and that was fun to see
Al does seem like the possessive type so I wonder who he’ll be jealous of ? I don’t think he’d get upset over Robin or Gwen being close to finn, so maybe someone else ? Like maybe another older guy shows up at the grab n go or the baseball game and shows interest in Finn and Al goes like >:(
I’ll never stop loving you queen !!!!!
same here omg they are my otp!!! 😩🙏🏻♥︎ i really hope you enjoyed the kiss scene and that the buildup was worth it!! xx
ooh these are some really interesting questions, i love them! i’ll try my very best to answer them! ♥︎
in chapter 10, finney found a faded old postcard in al’s bedside drawer signed by someone nicknamed ‘ollie’. this alluded to the fact that al has indeed had former flames! this “ollie” guy being one of them. and i think on some level, finney knows this, too, and that’s why he slammed the drawer shut hahaha. you’re right, al has always been kind of odd and eccentric, but he can also be incredibly charming and charismatic. pair that with his good looks and you have quite the interesting man. people are attracted to him—men and women alike—but he’s feral over finney. sometimes disturbingly so. and we all know finney very much reciprocates his feelings. he has a hard time keeping his jealousy at bay and feels the need to compete with other “pretty” boys like vance who he believes have the power to shift al’s attention away.
we find out more about al’s past flames in future chapters.
finney’s love for him absolutely eclipses any crushes the boy might have had in the past, including donna. and donna had been a pretty big deal. 😳 you’re spot on, though, absolutely no one holds a candle to his love for his magician! it’s intense and all-encompassing in a way he’s never felt before. and we all love to see it. ♥︎
i knowww, my poor baby!! imagine the heartbreak on his little face when he saw donna dating someone else! 😩 but it’s okay. even though wendy bell had been a momentary distraction, in three or so years he’d stumble upon a mysterious magician who would make him forget donna clarke ever even existed hahaha.
of course robin was there to help his best bud through the heartbreak. and we all know he offered to beat the shit out of donna’s new boyfriend for finney. ❤️
yes, absolutely! donna will be making an appearance shortly, and you’re right! she does have a crush on finney—but neither of them have acted on it, so the feelings have just been sort of left untethered. she does become a more prominent character in future chapters, though.
we’ve seen finney get worked up with jealousy on a handful of occasions now, but we’ve never seen al enter that state. that’s why it’s gonna be so fun to write it when the moment arrives because he’s so much more intense about it lmao. and once again, you’re absolutely correct; he’s intense and possessive and can be quite frightening, so whoever does trigger this response in him, he’ll very much go >:(
ahhhhh thank you, love! it’s been a pleasure going through your comment/ask, i hope i answered all your questions to a satisfactory degree! if you ever have more or simply wanna drop by and chat or say hello, please don’t hesitate! thank you so much for reading the story and i hope you enjoy all the chapters to come! stay amazing! xx ♥︎♥︎♥︎

It's here 😍! I've been waiting for this post (patiently 😌) ever since you first mentioned it!
"Might keep Arthur from wanking about her, but it didn’t give him the readied solider he needed, he thought with a roll of his eyes" this had me giggling straight away 😂, I love siblings bluntness.
i was pretty surprised to see how Arthur reacted to his brother saying Y/N was fine when they left. He is already so close to snapping, and that's with his own brother! Tommy is very casual about this whole thing, I don't think he knows Arthur's true mindset when it comes to Y/N 😬 or maybe he does but doesn't care 😂.
So Arthurs affection/obsession started from a very young age, which could explain everything! "Approaching carefully so as not to startle you, he removed his cap to greet you" this line stood out to me, has he sneaked up to Y/N before and "startled" her before. She seems to have not picked up on the fact that he has more than a crush on her 😬, which I'd say is pretty normal considering her own troubles at home 😔. I hate James so much already 😡!
Aaaand I was right 😂, Tommy doesn't give a shit 🙄😅. I really love how you have written their interactions. Arthur's mind is set on one thing where Tommy is trying to keep things business only.
Oh god, not the black gloves (😳👋@call-sign-shark 😂) ! I'm starting to feel really sorry for him 😩. He pours his heart out and although she tries to reassure him and sweetly declines his help, you can see the desperation in his words and actions. For the moment I would say he's a pretty soft Yandere, but I don't think it's going to last 😂. Our girl needs help but I'm afraid Arthur might help in the worse possible way 😬.
The image of him in the corner washing the blood of his hands is terrifying and with the added GIF 😳. But the way ay he quietky talked to her after creeped me out the most. Now his gone full Yandere, there will be no stopping him. “I did what I did for you…for us" the delusional idea he has that this was done for them is so terrifying, these men can't rationalise with the fact that the woman they are obsessed with doesn't feel the same, it's not even an option to them. This whole scene was 👌!
"Arthur stood out front with John and Finn, papers in hand. “Going somewhere?” he asked in a conversational tone that belied his devilish intentions" *gulp, we all knew she would never escape him. And I absolutely love the gif you inserted ❤️. BLOODY HELL John!!! I can't believe these brothers are ok with all of this, I'm starting to believe they might all have yandere tendencies 😳😂.
"Say yes to heaven," he whispered once more before you fainted" a part of me things that she won't be allowed to say no 😳.
Absolutely adored this Lee ❤️! Thank you for feeding my dark mind 😂. Beautifully written as always, everything just flows perfectly, I was sad it stopped 😩!
Say Yes to Heaven
dark!Arthur x female reader
Summary: Your childhood friend, Arthur, is deeply upset by the way your boyfriend is treating you and decides to take matters into his own hands in order to save you. However, his protection soon grows into an unhealthy obsession.
Author’s Note: An idea I had to explore dark!Arthur in a different way.
Warnings: drinking, drug use, unreliable narrator, mention of domestic abuse, mention of blood, yandere tendencies
France, 1917
“Arthur, stop pacing, you’re making the other lads nervous,” Tommy commanded, stamping out his cigarette.
“I can’t help it, Tom,” Arthur replied, biting his lip anxiously, taking another swig from the small bottle the doctor had prescribed.
Tommy wrenched it from his hands. “Stop it, man. You don’t need that stuff.”
Arthur clenched his jaw in frustration, turning his head away as he replied, “I do though. Need to forget I’m here when she’s back home…with him.”
Tommy shook his head in disbelief as he poured away the opium and bromide solution. Might keep Arthur from wanking about her, but it didn’t give him the readied solider he needed, he thought with a roll of his eyes.
“Nah, you don’t understand what could happen to a girl like her if I’m not there to protect her,” Arthur asserted.
“Then see to it when you get home, but don’t get yourself killed worrying about some girl who seemed happy when we left,” Tommy huffed.
Arthur’s eyes went wild at the suggestion, pushing his brother up against the trench. “You think she were happy with a piece of shit like him who don’t know how to treat her? Or have you forgot what men like that do? Like dad was with mum?” he asked, lower lip trembling.
Tommy sighed seeing there was no use arguing. “I didn’t say that, did I? I just said to make it home alive.” Then he pushed his older brother from him, watching his sibling crash to the ground, holding his aching head. Tommy knew if vengeance was what his brother wanted, he would have it. Arthur was never one to let go of a grievance.
—————————————-
Birmingham, 1919
“Esme, I need the black star list,” Arthur said in a low voice, shifting his weight on the balls of his feet as he might before a fight, ready and eager for the first punch. She barely looked up as she pushed the slip of paper across the desk, unaware of what it meant to him. He immediately scanned the list for the name of his foe, heartbeat thundering in his chest with the anticipation of a righteous victor. However, it was not to be his day.
When Arthur realized the name he sought was not on the list, he emitted a low growl of displeasure. “He fucking owes, I know he does,” he mumbled under his breath.
“Something wrong, Arthur?” Esme asked, looking up from her work in confusion.
Thinking for a moment he shook his head. “Tommy’s made a mistake, but I’ll make it right,” he assured her.
“What do you mean?” she asked with furrowed brow, but Arthur was already out the door.
——————————-
Arthur’s agitation was momentarily quelled by the sight of you walking down Watery Lane, the morning sunlight streaming through your hair. Your angelic face gave him pause, but only long enough to notice what he swore was a fresh bruise blooming just below your right elbow. His heart clenched as he noticed you wincing under the weight of the basket you carried and he was instantly transported to childhood. When you were eight and he was ten, he would rush out into the street to help you carry a bucket of ale home to your father. He knew the punishment for spilled beer and he couldn’t allow it to happen to someone so soft and delicate. Your large doe eyes urged him to treat you carefully, offering his protection whenever he could.
Approaching carefully so as not to startle you, he removed his cap to greet you. A wide smile overtook his features when you acknowledged him, a feeling of warmth radiating through his chest from a simple glance from you.
“You alright there, darlin’?” he asked with a softness reserved just for you.
“I’m fine, thank you,” you replied brightly. As he stood twisting his cap nervously in his hands without anything more to say, you bid him goodbye and continued down the street.
“Where are you headed?” Arthur asked eagerly, nearly tripping over his own feet as he rushed after you. He was enamored with you, openly staring at your beauty, and it made you blush. Arthur had a crush on you since you were kids which you found endearing. You couldn’t understand how others could be frightened of him in the slightest, despite your friends’ constant warnings a Shelby brother was dangerous company.
“I have to return to the shop. I shouldn’t keep James waiting,” you said, thinking of how busy the morning rush could be.
Arthur furrowed his brow, as he remembered the scorching heat of the ovens and the callouses on your hands. He hated the thought of you having to work so hard. As his shoulder bumped against yours, he felt your bone poke back against him and worry began to consume him. He wanted to ask if you’d eaten that morning or in the last week, but thought better of it.
“How’s business?” he asked instead.
“As well as can be expected when people are still recovering from the war. James was a great help after father died though,” you praised, shifting the basket to your other arm with a grunt.
“Let me help you with that. Looks heavy, love,” Arthur commented, trying to be useful.
However, by that time you were standing in front of the shop. James peered out the front window at you, raising his cane to tap against the glass. “I have to go now, Arthur, but thank you for walking with me,” you said quickly before disappearing inside. Arthur looked up and scowled at the man in the window, taking note of the object most likely used to mark your skin. “Fucking cunt…” he hissed, clenching his fists at his side.
————————————————-
“Are there any other orders of business?” Tommy asked before attempting to close the family meeting.
“Yeah, I’ve got somethin to say,” Arthur spoke up, voice coursing with urgency.
“Well, what is it?” Tommy said impatiently, squinting cautiously through the smoke from his cigarette to study his older brother.
“When do we go after James Miller, eh? It’s been six bloody months,” Arthur sniffed disgustedly.
“James Miller? He has no outstanding debts,” Lizzie said, opening a file in front of her and scrunching her nose as she followed a column of names with her finger.
“It’s not about money. It’s about reputation, Lizzie. Ain’t that right, Tommy?” he said, looking to his brother expectantly. “The Peaky Blinders keep order round here now and James Miller ain’t playin by the bloody rules.”
Tommy pinched the bridge of his nose as he began to see where the conversation was heading. “Arthur, we’ve been through this already. Y/n hired James Miller as a legitimate employee. Who are we to tell her how to run her fucking bakery? Who gives a fuck?” he said, stamping out his cigarette and turning to grab his jacket off the chair.
Arthur stood a bit too quickly, nearly overturning his seat in his haste. “I give a fuck because he’s taken what isn’t his! Making her work night and day and taking all the profits.” He grabbed Tommy’s arm to make his brother look him in the eye as he stressed, “He’s hurtin’ her too, I know it.”
Tommy took note of the pain in Arthur’s eyes. He was well aware that there were nights Arthur drank himself into a stupor, rambling about his love for Y/n. As far as he was concerned, she was the only woman in the world and he would fight to the death for her. If allowing him this one victory might bring Arthur’s mind back to business, Tommy decided to agree.
Tommy clamped a hand over Arthur’s and gave a short nod. “Alright, brother, if you’re certain. I’ll let you handle it the way you see fit.”
“S right. By order of the peaky fucking blinders,” Arthur said, savoring the words as he spoke them, knowing justice was forthcoming.
———————————-
“Open up, by order of the Peaky Blinders!” John called, nearly kicking the door in before James could open it.
“Come here to harass me again have you?” James asked, face red with fury, picking up his cane and waving it at the younger Shelby brother.
“James, stop!” you shouted, rushing out to grab his arm. You placed yourself between him and the peaky blinders as you asked in a small, frightened voice, “What’s this about?”
Arthur gulped as he saw you, hating to have caused you distress. “We don’t mean ya no harm,Y/n,” he said, holding up his hands. You studied his black gloves with suspicion, but decided to trust him based on the pleading look he now gave you. He looked genuinely sorry for the intrusion and you thought the least you could was listen.
“Alright, come in,” you said, opening the door toward him.
Arthur shook his head gently before asking, “A word alone, Y/n?”
James gave you a dire look, but you silenced it with a hand to his shoulder and a kiss to his cheek. “It’s alright. I’ll be fine,” you promised, grabbing your shawl and heading down the steps to meet with Arthur as John stayed behind guarding the door.
“Arthur please tell me what’s happening,” you begged as you walked with him.
Arthur stopped by the alley and reached for your hand tenderly. As he did, your shawl slipped, revealing a burn on your lower arm which you quickly covered. “You don’t have to do this, Y/n. I can help ya,” Arthur offered, stroking his thumb over your knuckles.
“Do what, Arthur?” you asked. He looked so forlorn, but you had no idea why.
Arthur’s head turned back toward your shop as his eyes flashed with sudden hatred. “Be with him!”
You took a step back to see if he were actually serious before realizing, Arthur Shelby was jealous. “Because I love him…” you exclaimed as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.
“Look how he treats ya!” he said, jerking his chin toward your injured arm.
“That’s a burn from a hot pan, Arthur,” you explained quietly.
“The hell it is! Why you covering for him?” he grunted. Then he softened as he took your cheek in his hand. “You can tell me, dove. Just cause he was here when your dad passed, don’t mean you have to let him take over. I know I was gone fighting a long time, but I’m home now. I want to be here for ya now…please,” he said, pouring his heart out in a way he didn’t think possible.
You listened intently, thinking of all the times he’d been two steps behind you, your fiercest protector since you were small. However, it was nothing more than a form of sisterly affection you felt for him and you realized you’d have to tell him of your feelings sooner rather than later.
“Oh, Arthur, I know you worry. You always have, but I’m not in trouble, you see. I’m in love and we’re getting married,” you said with an encouraging smile. You searched him for a response, but he remained stone faced before you.
Then suddenly something unexpected happened. Arthur’s features contorted into an expression of pain and his face and neck turned to a deep shade of red as he fixed you with a perplexed look. Unable to contain his humiliation at your rejection he shouted, “There’s no ring on your finger, Y/n. You’re lying to me!”
Your eyes grew wide at the change in him and you shook your head violently. “No, no, of course not! We haven’t the money. That's why I don't have a ring.”
Arthur’s hands snaked upward toward your wrists, restraining you with a punishing grasp as he pushed you further into the alley and up against the cool brick. “You’re lying,” he repeated, hot breath fanning over your face as he moved impossibly close. “You don’t love him,” he said as though he were trying to imprint that fact into your mind.
Tears began to well in your eyes from the shock and the pain of his hold. With quivering lip you looked into his eyes as you whispered a frightened plea. “You’re hurting me, Arthur. Please stop.”
The spark was quickly extinguished and Arthur relinquished his hold, backing away and running a hand through his hair, pulling at the roots as he shook himself. “Fook! Fook! God, I’m sorry.”
You wrapped your shawl around yourself tightly as you mumbled, “Goodbye, Arthur,” and scurried away, unsure what to make of the situation.
Arthur stood in the alley for what seemed hours, pacing and plotting, his mind never leaving you. None of what he’d heard could be right. You would come back to him, he was sure of it.
———————————-
The heat from the kitchen was dissipating slowly to mix with the chill of the late evening air. James had gone to take out the rubbish bins and you were waiting for his return as you finished the cleaning. It was another long day and you felt yourself slipping into a soporific state even as you stood cleaning.
Willing yourself to continue, a sudden gust from the open back door blew a solid sheet of rain into your face, causing you to blink and sputter as you fumbled for the door, rain pouring across the threshold. As you grappled with the edge of the door, an unsettling crash came from the alleyway and you turned in a tight circle, looking for James. Instead of your boyfriend, you caught sight of Arthur Shelby, or at least you thought it was him, from his profile. He stood at the corner of your house, washing his hands in the run off from the eaves, scrubbing them clean of what you weren’t entirely sure.

“Arthur?” you called out in a shaky voice.
His hands froze at the sound of your soft voice, one covering the blood which stained the other. He couldn’t let you see what he’d done, though he knew you’d find out soon enough. Dipping his head low to slough the water off his flat cap, he gazed back up at you with wild eyes like an animal caught with prey still in its jaws.
“Y/n, what’re ya doin’ out here? Thought you’d be in bed by now,” he managed, voice rumbling low like the thunder rolling through the city.
“I heard a noise,” you explained, eyes coming to rest on a broken piece of wood at the bottom of the stairs. It was hard to make out in the dim light, but it appeared to have the carvings of James’ cane and you felt your heart lurch. Arthur’s head tilted at a precarious angle to follow your line of sight, eyes flicking back up to yours and causing a shudder to course through your whole body. Your hands twisted nervously in your apron, feeling very small under his intense scrutiny.
Hiding his hands behind his back, Arthur slowly paced toward you in a stalking motion that made your stomach churn with dread. You shivered as he motioned for you to enter the house. “S too cold for ya out here, love,” he whispered in a voice that sounded far too placid. Then you felt his large hand at the small of your back, shooting electric sparks straight to your feet. Only then did your limbs begin to move in halted jerks with Arthur steering you into the sitting room.
You allowed him to guide you, feeling the grip he held on your elbow as he sat you in a chair by the fireplace. He took care to light it for you before taking a seat opposite you. Then he removed his coat and hat as if to show he had further business to discuss.
Despite the warmth that surrounded you, you shook violently as you asked, “Arthur, what have you done?”
Arthur leaned forward as he removed a flask from his pocket. Taking a long swig of whisky from the silver container to fortify himself, he exhaled sharply, “What should’ve been done a long time ago. I took care of him.”
“No, no…” you begged, catching sight of his bruised knuckles and bloodied shirt fully for the first time.
He rushed to your side to cradle you as your head fell into your hands, rocking yourself as you wondered how you would go on now.
“Let the fear go, love. He can’t hurt you anymore. I’ve got you now,” Arthur whispered into your hair as he cradled your limp body. Running a hand over your hair with his damp hands, he felt a surge of pride course through his veins and it was intoxicating. He had you in his arms as it should always have been.
Feeling a stir of desire, he pressed his face against your neck, kissing you with feverish passion. You recoiled from him in horror, pushing against the side of his face with the heel of your hand. Panting and heaving, you tried to shove him away, but he was much too strong. Finally he pulled away to look at you, rigid and frightened in his embrace.
“Please don’t look at me that way, love,” he begged, capturing your face between his large palms. “I did what I did for you…for us. He was hurtin’ ya. I couldn’t let that go on,” Arthur mused, staring into the fire.
“Arthur, I told you, I loved him. We were happy…,” you said through tears, now streaming down your face. You pulled his hands from you and studied the blood that still remained, trembling at the sight of it around his wrists and under his fingernails. You bit your lip harshly and closed your eyes to steady yourself from being sick at the thoughts running through your mind of how he’d killed James.
Arthur turned to look at you, “You’re confused. He weren’t good for ya, but I am,” he said earnestly. “I can give you a good life. Treat you like a queen, I will if you’ll be my wife. Say yes,” he asked, eyes shining like two bright stars. “To everything I can give ya.”
You took in a shaky breath as you fell back into his arms broken and defeated, how long could you deny him, you wondered? He was a delusional madman and you had to find a way out.
———————————————-
Two months later…
“Oh my God, I can’t thank you enough,” you said through tears, hugging your friend.
“Promise me you’ll go live a good life in America where that prick can never find you,” Celia said with more than a hint of malice. She’d been working tirelessly to secure passage for you by railway and steamliner as well as a new life in New York and now that everything was in order, you would be on your way the following morning, never to set foot in Small Heath ever again.
You packed a bag and went to bed with visions of your new life dancing before your eyes. Life had never felt so peaceful, knowing you were taking charge of your terrible circumstances.
You woke before dawn, pushing yourself out from a cold bed you’d barely slept in and hurried downstairs to collect your case and papers. However, the documents you needed were nowhere to be found. An icy chill clamped over you as you searched, knowing something wasn’t right. Had you left them with Celia in your haste? With only an hour to make it to the train station, you rushed out of the house to see her. However, you didn’t get far.
Arthur stood out front with John and Finn, papers in hand. “Going somewhere?” he asked in a conversational tone that belied his devilish intentions.
“Arthur…” you gulped. “What are you doing?”
“Could ask the same of you, love?” he said. “What’s all this, eh? Having a holiday without me?” he asked without a hint of amusement, shaking the papers he held in his hands.
“I…I was going to tell you about that,” you lied.
“Were you now?” he asked thoughtfully, head turning from the papers to dig into his pocket for something which you quickly realized was a lighter.
You ran toward him screaming “No!” with outstretched hand, as he set the papers ablaze before your very eyes, all hopes of a new life burning before you.

“I had my eye on you since we was kids, Y/n. I said she will be mine and nothing will keep us apart,” Arthur said, crushing the papers in his gloved hand. “Nothing,” he reiterated as the ashes fell at his feet. John laughed as the embers of his cigar fell to the ground, joining the tattered remnants of your dignity.
“We’ll have heaven here on Earth, my darling. Just need you to say yes,” Arthur proclaimed, reaching for your trembling hand. He pulled a ring from his pocket and slipped it onto your finger as you shook with fear. "Say yes to heaven," he whispered once more before you fainted.

For me I first got a crush on Alexsi, Tommi and Joonas. That was an interesting time.... Then I stopped crushing on Alexsi - sorry your name makes me think of someone I know - and then I started crushing on Olli.
I've never had a crush on Joel, don't get me wrong I can see he is attractive, just never developed a crush on him - may do in the future 🤷
I've had a tiny crush on Niko - especially in sharks love blood music video. 😳😳
So at the moment I'm currently crushing on Niko, Joonas, Olli and Tommi..............
It's interesting to me that you outright call it a crush and those are a lot of crushes, are you okay? xD
How dare you do my boy Aleksi so dirty :( He was the first for me and it's still going strong, no one could take the nunber one away from me (I partly blame cute Alex Mattson for this).
You will gather them all eventually is what I'm taking from your ask😄
Hm let me think. So, Aleksi was the first for me, the instant I saw him. Then I think it was Joel. It took me just a bit longer because he has this "cool kid" look perfected and that intimidated me but as soon as I figured out he's just as lost as us I took him.
Then it was Olli, because well damn it's Olli and then somehow and I really don't know when or how Joonas sneaked into my heart. It's all because of his personality.
Niko I can't get zero behind because first his confidence that makes me shy away from people and he looks too close to my brother (and honestly his twitter personality makes me dislike him strongly I just have to say it).
And I hope nobody takes this wrong but Tommi is "too manly" like you know he's tall and broad, which people associate with being a man and that never interested me. If he would show more of his personality though (or if I was a Finn being able to understand his jokes) then I would like him for sure.
But I love how almost no one can settle on just one. Like with most bands, the singer is the frontman and does most of the public work, it's the person people know the name of and are interested in, but with BC we get so much content from all of them (hello Tommi where are you?) and they're so different personality wise that they're all so likable.
