Ship Ask Game - The Basics

3. What was their first impression of each other?

I feel for A-mancers, the first impression goes beyond their official meeting in Kendis' office.

Kendis without knowing who Ava was pepper sprayed her -- in their defense, at worst Ava could be a murderer.

Ava, of course, wasn't a fan of how Kendis handled potential suspects or being pepper sprayed. So that led to sour notes.

In the office, Kendis was like: Who is this basic white woman barging in here and giving commands?

Ava was like because we ignore love at first sight here: This hard-headed, uncompromising, impertinent CHILD, thinks that SHE can railroad MY mission? They're just as rash* as I suspected.

*[haha]

It is safe to assume neither was the other's fan.

12. Do they have a difficult time when separated from each other, or are they fairly independent?

Nah, I think I've said before they're both good with separation. Though they're both worriers, they had lives before each other-- and Kendis isn't one to change that beat no matter how in love they are. [I don't think ....]

13. How do they keep in contact when they’re apart? Do they write letters, talk on the phone, or simply wait out the time?

Anyway Kendis feels like. But Ava prefers the postcards and the phone calls, rather than the video chats and the 'u up?' texts. And Kendis is okay with sticking to those unless: 1. She misses Ava a lot and thus wants to see her 2. Wants to annoy her partner.

19. Do they wear each other’s clothes/jewelry?

I lean no for clothes. Because Kendis isn't always the best sharer, especially when they don't trust you with their stuff. [Ava is offended; just because she doesn't care for fashion doesn't mean shed let anything happen to Kendis impractically tall and expensive shoes]. And honestly, Kendis' style is just to bright or filled patterns for Ava.

Though Kendis as stolen one of Ava's pants [they run baggy on them and is comfortable and has pockets] and combat boots .... which Ava admits to nice to see on Kendis. And Ava has one of Kendis' coats. [Yes, Kendis pulled the 'Are you cold baby girl?'. And yes Felix has never to let her live it down]

But jewelry? Yes. More in a borrow way than a ownership way. Though again Kendis has nabbed a watch of Ava and is always letting Ava use her hair products and hair pins. Ava has a pair of earrings that Kendis said she could keep, and she treasures it so much. It was for an event and she likely will never wear it again but she likes to know it's there.

21. Do they enjoy domestic life?

... yeah. I feel with them it isn't like oh yeah domesticity!! And more a casual by product of who they are. Kendis has strong home maker traits (its the ESFJ in them) and they both like ensuring that the people around them are safe. So making a home and keeping tabs on each other by running errands together is just ... a thing that happens. And Kendis likes seeing Ava at ease and Ava likes seeing Kendis get to indulge in things they used to do before The BloodTM.

Hey! For the OTP asks, either Ava x Kendis or Nate x Nai for any of 49, 51 or 54 !!

Keva and Kat [ aka Kendiis/Ava, Kai/Nat]. I need to occupy the brain til sleep hits, so I shall two and both. Ty for the ask! :-DD

49) Does either of them have a hard time being away from the other?

Keva: Not really. Though, Kendis is one for regular [though not always frequent] check ins --- particulary if either of them will be gone for a while. Ava's main hard time is knowing that her partner may get to something foolish and think its a good plan not tell her. It is easier to find these things out when she is around.

It is different if it was something with no communication -- then they'd both become insufferable at whoever thought that was a good plan.

Kat: No ish. I think Nat doesn't have a hard time PER SE, but there is worry. There is concern. But she manages. Her mind wanders but she manages. It helps a lot that Kai wouldnt mind nightly calls, but she manages for him. It becomes a Thing when he is gone either weeks on end or with minimal to communication.

Kai doesn't... but he strangely has more of a time than I would expect. He just likes knowing where Nat is. Check ins woud've been fine but thankfully he has a gf who would tackle cellphones for him, so. That said, he'd panic less if Nat went on a long mission than vice versa.

51) What’s a non verbal way they say I love you?

Kat: By existing? Nat is the one more likely to say the words. I think Kai would say it at most twice a year, but Nat NEVER doubts. They are both quality time folk -- so that Nat would walk into an Apple Store, that Kai would go to some fancy event and dress up, that they can just sit together and do their own thing? That's I Love You. Everyday, every week.

Keva: Kendis likes to do things for Ava, especially things Ava does not do for Ava's self. They also take care of each other -- Kendis does deeds [though they are there for an ear and advice], Ava does pillar of strength. It works because Ava is on top of everything and Kendis ensures it runs smoothly [Ava's desk is neat with some flowers in a vase, her blood is warmed the way she likes when she's too focused or tired, etc]. And Kendis doesn't like leaning on people but Ava has this way of giving the right quiet support as well as understanding, she is also ready to be the bad guy [even if it does suck when Kendis is mad at her].

hello i've appeared for OTP asks 🫴

14, 15, 22 and 32 for kendis/ava pls 💗 (- not-sewell)

ty f0r the ask!!!

14) How do their personalities compliment each other? How do they clash?

I think Kendis and Ava work because they both feel a lot more than they both show -- and they understand that of each other. Ava does not ask more than Kendis can give, and Kendis [tries to -- and usually does, at least re: romance] to respect Ava's boundaries. They are both hard workers [workaholics] who take pride in their work. Though there is sometimes a bit of a rub in method and approach. They are also good at parallel playing and are open to making space even if they don't get the others methods [Kendis can talk Introvert tho - thanks Verda. And Ava can decipher peppiness and willfull optimism -- F and N]

They both also have this "I will love you, despite --" tendency.

Sometimes Kendis pushes too hard, too fast. They are both argumentative and stubborn. Kendis is also more sentimental than Ava, they are also unrepentent in sharing their opinion and doing as they will.

Plus night sky / sunshine dynamics JUST work~ lol

15) Do they always say 'i love you' before leaving?

Nope! But they show it. Especially during big leaves -- though for those Kendis would throw in a, "I love you, you better come back or else ..."

22) What reminds each of their partner?

Answered Here.

32) Who's the better story teller?

My brain at first said Kendis -- but it depends what you are looking for. Kendis is more animated but Ava is quicker, concise. Less loud. But Kendis babysits, so. Ava d0esn't d0 v0ices

[grapecaseschoices]

<3 ty! and ty, it does :-D!

22) What reminds each of their partner?

Answered Here

It was late. So late in spring that summer was beginning to bully the more temperate season into submission, and it was so late into the afternoon that the trees were tucking the sun deep into their embrace. It was the kind of late where haziness predominated. Slow, quietly rumbling, warm kind of haziness.

Tina felt warm and slow as well at the moment -- hazy. A sense of easing comfort caused by a walk after a filling dinner and the quiet rumble of chatter of friends, both new and old.

It was probably why Tina felt a little disoriented when Kendis' voice jolted from behind her and cut through her staring into the warmth of Nat's panty melting brown eyes.

"Pants." Kendis stated - rather, ordered - suddenly.

Disoriented, but not startled. Tina, after all, was used to Kendis' sing songy voiced guilloting a moment. What did startle her was Felix's hand eagerly stopping her short to draw attention to a scene happening behind them.

Tina would've tripped if not for his quick reflexes. That didn't stop her from glaring, "What?"

"Watch this!", He insisted ... cleary unbothered by the might of said glare.

Following Felix's bright gaze, Tina's landed on the slurlier, quieter agents of Unit Bravo in a hushed conversation. However, surprising part wasn't Mason muttering more than two words at a time -- instead the shock lied in how Kendis' impatiently, affectionately, smacked the back of her hand against Ava's beefy arm and ordered, "No. Other pocket." And Ava followed without flinching.

The way the typically off-putting, cold - but so hot - Commander slid her hands from one pocket in her cargo pants to the other was almost Pavlonian. She didn't even pause her conversation with Mason, either!

At the distance, it was hard to see what she handed over to Kendis. But it was definitely enough to cause Kendis' entire face to brighten --- and that caused the already fond smirk that had lifted Mason's typically bored expression to spread ... slightly.

"What do you say, Detective?" Ava teased.

Tina's heart didn't think she could take much more of this [and Felix's chuckle made it obvious that he could tell].

"Mine!" Kendis chirpped. Tina huffed, because as strange as that entire exchange might have been at least some things would aways stay the same.

58) Who’s more likely to hold a grudge after an argument?

Kendis. Kendis all day and everyday. I don't care what the game stat says. It is Kendis in the morning, Kendis in the night. Kendis in the storms and Kendis in the light. Because, see -- Kendis is not only STUBBORN, Kendis PETTY. Kendis would literally cut off their nose to spite their face. And I mean actually knife carving face literally. Kendis would rather die than say die.

THAT SAID, it really depends on a few things. 1) They type of argument 2) How Ava handles it 3) Anything that happened to Kendis before hand that might damper/uplift mood or mindset.

Obligatory OTP Asks

[grapecaseschoices]

right back at you! 35-40 for the ship you're thinking about most!

BJ and Seb are more on my brain, but I don't know Seb too well yet, so I'll do my latest TWC PT as well -- Kendis and Ava.

35) Who's more artistic?

Joeb: Bethany Josnel is. He's a rock star whose stage attire involves shoes like this. His stage name is Nova. He can play the piano. Seb is literally just some guy.

Keva: I mean I can't imagine someone being LESS artistic than Ava -- Rebecca maybe? [After all repairing cars takes some artistry] So, it really isnt hard to be MORE artistic than Ava. But Kendis definitely takes the cake. Not only is their attire more aesthetically vibrant, they're very creative and are open to new creative endeavors. So while they're far from a traditinonal artist [like BJ], they enjoy making and decorating and fashion.

36) Who's more likely to fire up the stove at 2am because the other woke up in the middle of the night hungry?

Joeb: I feel it could be either, because Josnel is a dad friend and Seb is a dad. So it is probably even, but I feel it leans Seb. Just by a hair. He comes off like a very attentive parent in the asks, and I feel maybe this might have given him a sixth sense. Also, I feel he would be mindful of how much work and stress BJ's career is -- so he's even more hypervigilant to take care of his man. This is my Seb canon til otherwise proven.

Keva: Ava. LMAO, not that Kendis wouldn't. Neither them sleep lmao, so its more who pauses working to get the other a snack. But Ava will take care of Kendis if it kills them both. But Kendis is more likely to be the one sleeping and thus waking up at 2am. Then Ava is faster thus could get Kendis what she needed before she can stop her.

37) Which is more likely to swear?

Joeb: Oh, I don't know. Seb seems like the type to tsk 'language' and he is so goofy, he doesnt seem like a curser? And Josnel was raised in the Church, still has that in him. Maybe BJ but barely/rarely.

Keva: Kendis. Kendis swears and curses. Silly swears [dangnabbit/go suck the toes off a pig, you tucker carlson watching butthole] and at times the "harder" stuff lmao. Usually leans on 'fuck' and 'shit'.

38) Who is more sexually experimental? Who's more vanilla?

Joeb: Sebastian. BJ. Respectively. I remembered that Seb is down to clown. He is also more touchy. BJ is generally more reserved [so far, in my mindplace. Maybe it will change when I play him -- maybe the white man will have him act a fool!]

Keva: Kendis. Ava. Respectively. Kendis has more experience. And Ava is very set, I also don't imagine she's thought about sex much at all. I mean she's demisexual. And she's also Ava. Kendis is also is theoretically down to clown. [As long as they call the shots/boundaries are pre-established].

39) Who would rescue an injured animal and nurse it back to health? What would the other think?

Joeb: Goodness, idk. Maybe Seb? I feel Maya has made him creature rescuer. It must be habit. BJ would judge because he's unaware that he would as well -- but he's more likely to call animal rescue, I feel than try to make himself the next star of Dodo.

Keva: Kendis. All day. Everyday. Ava is ready to move them away to the city -- but with her luck Kendis would find some diseased sewer creature to bring home. Ava is resigned but also not, like she accepts this is who Kendis is but she's gonna point out the follies anyway.

40) Who has an insatiable appetite? And what does the other do to help?

Joeb: I don't think either of them are big eaters? Though, maybe leans on Beth because them post-Black church lunches were about filling the plate. Seb makes sure to just shop more and get the groceries.

Keva: Kendis. Kendis be eating. And theyre a foodie, I feel it is fair to say. Ava isn't big on going out, but she definitely indulges Kendis for the quieter hole-in-a-wall. And she probably knows Kendis' faves from Hayleys and will stop buy to get something when she walk kendis home

Thanks for the ask!!
