#sorry ladies and gents this is the current vibe in the studio

[goldafterglow]

Talk to me about Ezra falling in love? What is he like, when he realises he has fallen for someone? Does he tell them or is he hesitant? Literally anything about Ezra + being in love pls bc I KNOW you want to talk about it

i love how my Ezra addiction is YOUR fault and then you continue to enable me. and your postulation about what I desire is correct, that being to “talk about it”

also for however long this is you should know that I held back so god damn hard like there are so many of my own thoughts that I didn’t include in this I hate space cowboys  

Send me headcanons!

Word Count: 947, child anyways soooooo-

Ezra knows what he wants when he wants it, so even though he probably wasn’t in love with you when he first met you, he was certainly attracted to you, and he didn’t keep it a secret. This mf is a big fan of “candid discourse.”

and child if this bitch could shut the fuck up-

“it’s my personal belief that you’d make an excellent addition to that constellation, birdie” and “often I lament about the cycles i spent not knowing how gorgeous your eyes are” and “I wouldn’t exchange the warmth of your smile for the heat of a thousands stars”

Ezra likes to laugh a lot, and as we saw in the movie, he often has to find humor himself because no one is ever really trying to make him laugh, so when you tease him and he lets out that sweet little giggle that we love so much, he realizes that he’s found a true gem.

It’s upon this foundation that Ezra begins to fall for you, and his mind isn’t so courteous as to warn him when his thoughts come to stampede.

He’s with you on some oasis of a moon; it’s habitable, so you don’t need filters or suits to be outside. Ezra, ever the romantic, went out of his way to land near a field of grass and flowers, like the dry backdrop of peace (it took him cycles to find it but he didn’t want to say that to you, lest he scare you away). The meadow is bordered by a forest, so right at the edge of the pains are a few stray trees situated in the middle of the grass.

He’s sitting up, leaning back against the tree. You’re sat right beside him, his left arm wrapped tight around your body so he can hold you close and his face buried in your shoulder where he can lose himself in your scent and the line between where he starts and where you begin becomes blissfully blurred into the sunset.

I love you

His brain doesn’t even take a second to think about it because he’s all feelings, and this one has just bashed his head against a rock.

He suddenly can’t breathe, can’t think straight, can’t fucking function because the person he wants to give himself to so wholly and entirely is right fucking here in his arm and he knows he hasn’t done a damn thing to deserve it.

When he realizes he’s in love with you, that part of him that just wants to scream every stupid thought that pops into his head and the part of him that understands social cues and when things are/aren’t appropriate have world war 3.

How long it takes to confess his feelings depends entirely on you. If he thinks you won’t be startled by his quick declaration, then he’ll tell you immediately. If you’re a little more guarded, he might wait like...a couple minutes

Obviously the first part wins because when does Ezra shut the fuck up, so he just hits you with the “Birdie, I must confess something at the risk of losing your companionship.”

By now Ezra’s definitely told you everything about him. He’s so honest with you, so you definitely know about the lives he’s taken and the evil he’s taken part in, but you stayed with him anyway. You reassure him after after having been through so much with him, there isn’t anything that could scare you.

“Beautiful, I am utterly and irrevocably in love with you.”

Now in my political opinion, I think Ezra is super understanding if you can’t say it back. Ezra is very well aware that he can come on strong and fast, and he knows he falls in love faster than normal.

Now, Ezra in love is just-

it’s intense, especially at the beginning before that initial wave of emotion dies down and he can act normal again

He is constantly praising you for everything you do. Like he thinks everything you do is so amazing and honestly he might be a little oblivious because he’s just so blindingly sweet on you. like you could trip on air and he’d be like !!!!!

Ezra’s expression is just so amazed and adoring when he gets to hear your voice. He likes to walk in front of you when you’re trekking just to give himself the peace of mind that if anyone wants to get to you, they’ll have to go through him first, so you can’t see his lilac grin or his freshwater eyes when he listens to you expound about something he made you think of.

He loves kissing you everywhere all the time. Like he’ll literally kiss fuckin’ like your knee if the skin is showing he does not care he wants his mouth on you.

Ezra definitely gives me touch-starved vibes - that’s another story for another time - but long story short I think he really likes just having a hand or head or his lips on you

Ezra in love means constantly telling you. He’s always relied heavily on his words, and this is no exception.

He has to force himself to stop saying it so much because he doesn’t want the words to lose meaning to you, so instead he tries really hard to show you through his actions.

Except he sucks at it and repeatedly makes a flubbering  fool of himself, but it’s okay because it makes you laugh and it’s a sound he’d glue to his ears if he could.

but how Ezra shows his love to you is a WHOLE other list of headcanons and in typical Ezra fashion, I need to shut the fuck up :)
