How'd ROs react to a really touchy-feely/clingy/bolder than usual type drunk MC? (Pre-relationship)
Kieran: A bit taken aback by the shift in disposition and behavior towards them—unsure exactly how to handle mc being suddenly very clingy and might be rendered a bit awkward in their attempts to extricate themselves from MCs grabby hands. They think mc must rightfully find them distasteful and aren’t sure if this sort of affection is genuinely meant for them so they feel odd about accepting it, like it would be taking something that doesn’t belong to them.
Nihm: They find it cute seeing this kind of side to an mc who isn’t usually so open/sincere about affection etc. They’d probably try to politely keep from getting smothered by a clingy mc bc they don’t want mc to feel overly embarrassed when they’re sober and would maybe try distracting mc by asking them about things they love bc they love hearing people ramble about their interests. <3
Lilith/Lucien: 👌👌👌❤️ Very cute. Uses it as an opportunity to just sit there and let mc do as they please while they stare shamelessly and adoringly and ask mc random questions just to hear them ramble.
Samira: Somewhat exasperated trying to keep mc from tipping over etc but on the other hand she does find it quite amusing and endearing seeing them with their guard down and so open/genuine about their affections. She won’t let an mc cling to her in public but if they were alone she might be convinced to tolerate it if mc outpersists her. (Tolerate as an understatement—she’d probably feel a bit guilty about how nice it feels)
Aurynn: Definitely committing all of this to memory bc if mc doesn’t remember in the morning, he sure will, and he’s going to very smugly recount every single detail back to mc just to fluster/irritate them since it isn’t always as easy to do so for a more reserved/closed off mc, and they are so cute when flustered. Also annoying mc is one of his favorite pastimes. 👌

I was thinking of if we'll get to see everyone's thoughts on the ROs in game (everyone being mostly Nour and Luca, since we know Farah probably won't like anyone out of spite for being the reason her sibling is around less) and was wondering
We've seen Parim's reactions to the ROs if he'd lived, but what about Aurora and the twins?
Sorry it took a while to finish answering this one! But thanks for your patience! ❤️ :) You’ll get Luca’s thoughts on them, but Nour’s and Farah’s wouldn’t be until either very late end game or in the epilogue. 🤔 But as for the other siblings:
Kieran:
Ember: >:/ *Sigh*��.Does this mean I’m gonna start having to refer to them as my brother/sister-in-law? Castor: You may ignore Ember; he forgets his manners, as he is apt to do. I…admit I had my reservations at first. Though, seeing the two of you together quickly assuaged me of them—they seem to complement you well; the night to your day. One cannot exist without the other. With the way they look at you, doubtless they’d agree. Aurora: I hope you understand this union will not so immediately soothe tensions between our respective countries—though I see now that Parim and I had little else to be concerned about. Even were I a stranger, it would take little more than a glance to see how much you clearly adore the other. Your peoples may take more convincing, surely, but I trust you two are the perfect pair to do it. My sincerest congratulations, MC.
Nihm:
Ember: I tried grilling them—what? Don’t look so offended; I’m your older brother, I’m supposed to grill them—and they were so nice about everything that I ended up feeling like the one being put on the spot. :( Castor: That word you call them—I admit I’m unfamiliar with it. What does it mean in solaran? A Luna moth? I see. That makes sense then—I heard them calling you their sunbeam, among other such similar nicknames, earlier. Moths are drawn to the light, yes? ….Apologies, was I not supposed to know that? Aurora: I admit I am impressed with how quickly they’ve ingratiated themselves to the nobles here. I suspect they’ll have little more trouble in winning over the public’s opinion as well. They’ve won over mine, and that is not something so readily accomplished.
Lilith/Lucien:
Ember: Where do you even find these people—ow! What? I can’t say they’re weird? They’re weird. Yeah, whatever—‘pot calling the kettle black’—shut-the-fuck-up. You might be grown now but don’t think I can’t still hurl you into the Thiss. Liken the two of us in such a way again and I’m feeding you both to a crocodile. Castor: Strangely enough, the two of you seem to get along like two sides to the same coin. I swear I…hm. No, never mind. I am happy for you. Doubtless you both must be as well. I should think their rather evident devotion to you is largely unparalleled. They’ve little sense of discretion in such matters, it seems. Aurora: You do know this match likely isn’t going to be particularly well-received by the public, yes? As long as you’re aware; I don’t mean to dampen what should be a felicitous union for the two of you, but I only want you to have realistic expectations. Though, I should think it would do the public a great deal of service in turning their long-clouded opinions by seeing how clearly your Starfellan betrothed adores you, and you them. Though perhaps you might convince them to put a shirt on. Honestly.
Samira:
Ember: I’ve heard the court gossips talking about her before. Well, if she’s going to be my sister-in-law, do let me know if anyone gives the two of you any shit. I don’t mind slipping a scorpion down someone’s tunic. What? Don’t look at me like that. Fine—something non-venemous, then. Like a skink. Or a garter snake. Or a handful of beetles. Castor: I should think the court could benefit from a perspective like hers, though I’m sure most of the nobles would disagree. She’s always done well by you, and it’s clear she loves you like you are already family. I look forward to greeting her as a sister-in-law. Aurora: Hm. And you understand how such a match is apt to be received publicly—her being well beneath your station? And you are prepared to defend such a match? (lips curve in the barest hint of a proud smile) Very well. Then you may count on me to defend it as well.
Aurynn:
Ember: (he’s too busy choking on his own laughter to speak) Castor: (though it’s far less obvious than with Ember, you realize with growing dismay he is also struggling to mask his amusement) No one is laughing at you, MC. Ember, knock it off. I must admit, though—I took him for the type to make eyes at any pretty face, no? You must have done quite the number on him—he seems to have eyes for little else but you, now. Aurora: I would offer you my congratulations, though I fear this would be too preemptive on my part—so perhaps it would be more apt to offer you my condolences instead. I take it you’ve yet to tell your mother? Mm. Well. I don’t envy you.

What would be an absolute dealbreaker for the RO's in a relationship? (or friendship if you prefer)
Applies for any kind of relationship. :) Not exhaustive ofc but some relevant ones to their characters/arcs:
Kieran: An arrogant sense of sadism/egoism; pitting them against those they consider family; hurting their baby sis >:(
Nihm: A lack of remorsefulness and an unwillingness to apologize or take accountability for one’s wrongdoings or cruelties; turning a blind eye to suffering.
Lilith/Lucien: Intentionally hurting someone they love—they’re a loyal mfer; a dehumanizing attitude.
Samira: Casual cruelty/indifference for life; an unwillingness to change.
Aurynn: Violating his sense of autonomy; blind obedience.

what were the RO's like as kids?? :3
I maybe shouldn’t answer this, but…I have no patience to wait for the demo to go over it lol… :3 Can’t go into much more detail tho :P
Kieran: Quiet and solemn, but also eager to please those they cared about, like a street dog begging for scraps of attention. Clever, wary, and a quick learner, though this was largely due to necessity. They kept their hair short and became quite adept at sleight of hand and pickpocketing.
Nihm: Kind, honest, and eager to please and make their father and older brother proud—idolized their family and wanted to follow in their footsteps. Much the same as now, though unmarked at least at first by the underlying nervousness that plagues them today. They also used to be fearful of bugs as a child.
Lilith/Lucien: Sullen and saturnine around most—the sulking, silent type. Around those they were closest and most comfortable with, however, they had a more playful, goofy, and incredibly loyal side, though always somewhat overshadowed by that air of somberness.
Samira: Clever and insightful, but also full of cheer and marked by an overall infatuation with life itself. Eager to learn, bold, confident, and outgoing. Adoring of her family and playful with the neighboring children. Quick to laugh and easy to delight.
Aurynn: Serious, morose, cynical, and defiant, with a sarcastic streak. Largely antisocial and distrusting/skeptical of most others. Spent most of his time by himself, though this didn’t start out by choice. Kept his hair short and his patience shorter—most especially with regards to himself.

Three ROs wear gloves and never take them off, these three characters have ties to Lady of Arcanis, suspicious very suspicious.
Once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, but three is a pattern.

I have seen that you don't mind NSFW asks! Feel absolutely free to ignore this if out of line, but ROs when MC has a really obvious praise kink? (Aurynn calling my character good girl might have changed my brain chemistry)
Answered under the cut! :)
Kieran: Takes silent note of it but makes no comment. You’d probably think they didn’t even notice it at all until one day they use it very knowingly and very intentionally on mc—either as a very genuine reward/sincerely-meant praise or as a teasing punishment. Either way, that sort of semi-playful behavior is something they’d only use that on an mc they were much closer with so it’d be a sign they were opening up.
Nihm: Probably wouldn’t realize that was a turn on for mc unless they explicitly told them. They’d just think ‘oh mc seems to like it when I praise them! Lilith/Lucien likes being called a good girl/boy too. I’ll do it more since it makes them happy. I love my friends! :3’ So they unintentionally end up abusing the hell out of MCs praise kink.
Lilith/Lucien: Also has a praise kink. 👍 (also a bit of a shame kink—gotta cover your bases; no matter if someone’s mean or nice to them that person can never take satisfaction in it bc it’s always a turn on! bc fuck you that’s why! Cover your bases 👍) So hell yeah 😏 now they can play both sides. Competing pet play. Will also shamelessly use it in front of people if only to tease mc or if they’re jealous and want to make a point.
Samira: HA! Right into her arsenal for ways to get mc to comply when they’re being stubborn. Refusing to drink a yucky tonic? Don’t be a fucking baby—I mean she’ll call you a good boy/girl/pet etc if you behave and take your meds. She finds it a highly amusing method for reward and mental manipulation 👍 Being a bad patient? :( This is not good boy/girl/pet behavior…very disappointing….
Aurynn: Abusing it 👍 Ya done fucked up by making it obvious. Getting a little too comfortable bossing him around and forcing Sam’s tonics on him? Expect him to retaliate. Next time you’re having a Very Delicate discussion with a Very Important Noble, he’s abusing MCs turn ons. Good luck focusing now fucker 👍 :)

How would the ROs react if they had a nsfw dream about the MC? Probably crushing stage or maybe before they realise their feelings for the MC?
Kieran: Will die before ever admitting to it. Any tension that had begun to slowly ease between Kieran and mc is back in an instant and they are back to being stiff and curt around mc, probably to mc’s confusion. If mc presses them too hard about their shift in behavior, they’ll remember the dream all over again and get embarrassed and flush and probably coldly snap at mc or attempt to brusquely brush them off.
Nihm: It is now impossible to speak to or look at mc without guiltily and very vividly remembering every detail and becoming red-faced and embarrassed. Avoids mc at all costs and flees if they see mc coming. Stammers and gets evasive if cornered and questioned about it and is looking everywhere but at mc.
Lilith/Lucien: torn between ‘Hell yeah 😏’ and ‘Bad girl/boy! (spray bottle noises) You’re not supposed to be getting this involved. What happened to keeping some distance?’ Difficult to reign themself in as they’d feel bad brushing mc off so tries to act the same as always as if nothings changed, but if things get too serious they’re going to have to force themself to pull back even if it means rejecting/hurting MCs feelings.
Samira: Girl you cannot be having these sorts of feelings for the literal prince/ss/ps. Feels guilty, frustrated, and scared with herself and is going to attempt to repress her growing feelings and distract herself with extra work but ends up too lost in her own head to really focus and is overly aggressive in any delicate work and just ends up breaking things. MC probs assumes she’s angry about something. She doubles down on putting some distance between them, treating mc less as a friend and more as her patron prince/ss/ps in an attempt to convince herself she doesn’t have these traitorous feelings.
Aurynn: Probably wouldn’t really think much of it at first—wouldn’t be the first time he’s had one. But as he starts to develop serious feelings—which he’ll have a hard time recognizing—these kinds of dreams are going to become a Concern™️. Very bad. Stop that. Makes him confused and unsettled and he might start acting overly casual/friendly and attempt to redirect any attention MC might show him to someone/thing else like ‘oh isn’t Sam cute today?? Don’t you think so???’

Okay but ROs when MC is just sobbing can't even get the words out about what's wrong just needs comfort? Who is murdering in the immediate aftermath? Who sucks at comforting but is trying so hard?
Kieran: Though it’s been a very long time, they’re used to comforting Alektis when she was little and too upset/frightened for words. They like to be relied on and be someone’s rock in a storm so that instinct would probs kick in for mc post relationship. They’ll be steady and patient and go at MCs pace.
Aurynn: At least at this point in his arc, if humor and small acts of physical comfort aren’t enough to work then he’s out of his element and sucks shit at genuine serious comforting—any attempt at it comes off as very stiff and awkward and uncomfortable. He’s trying his best here :/
Lilith/Lucien: After they’re done doting someone is getting stabbed. 👍 Jk they have a bit more self control than that but expect whoever made mc upset to get a lovely bouquet delivered to them tailored down to the type and color of every bloom with a very specific message like “I hope you die in a fire :)” and filled with sprigs of poison oak to give them a very lovely rash to go with it.
Samira: She wouldn’t do anything rash that would make things worse for mc but if she was justifiably angry enough, a non-venomous snake might somehow find its way into the pillowcase of whoever did this to mc 🤷🏾‍♀️ Or maybe they’ll find their dinner simply Does Not agree with them
Nihm: Can’t always tell the difference between like a regular cry and full on serious sobbing so sometimes their very genuine attempts at comfort can come across as a bit absurd, awkward, or facetious. They’ve somehow garnered a reputation for being good at grounding/deescalating people when they’re upset by asking stupid/ridiculous questions (like in the pics)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
but I’m afraid this would be giving them a bit too much credit :P

In deep crushing stage how would the RO’s react to seeing the MC with a hickey?
Kieran: (refuses to acknowledge they are jealous to themselves or anyone else—in denial, babeyyy) I know I told you I care not if you wish to entertain any dalliances or outside partnerships, but I believe I reminded you to keep them discreet—for now—given the delicate nature of this arrangement. This is not discreet.
Nihm: (oblivious) You have a bruise right there. Did you get hurt? Come, come, I can take you to the infirmary. No need to be shy about it. (realization does not strike until much later) *head in hands* oh my gods.
Lilith/Lucien: (jealous meter has been cranked to the max) What? No fair. Who gave you that? Names, please. Can I watch next time? Can I give you one? Can I—
Samira: (to herself) Who. The. Fu—no….it’s not my business….
Aurynn: Hm. 6/10. I could give you a better one. Right now, even. Shall we? (please)

okay but what about true classic, what would the ROs do if there was only one bed?
Kieran: >:/ You're kidding. What is this—one of their novels? Very well—mc shall take the bed and they the floor. It isn’t as if they aren’t accustomed to sleeping on a hard floor, even if it may have been a while. They grew up a street rat, after all. And sharing would be…far too close/intimate. Though touch-starved, they’ll be largely touch-averse with people they don’t know well.
Nihm: Also suggests mc take the bed and that they’re totally fine taking the floor! :) They’re actually quite used to it—they assure you—despite being brought up as an albeit disinherited noble under Lady de Arcanis’ tutelage. Might be a bit hesitant if mc insists on sharing, but could be persuaded—they’d keep a respectful distance, however, but would probably leave after a bit so as not to wake mc. They don’t tend to sleep well as they have night terrors.
Lilith/Lucien: Ohhhhh noooooo…..there’s only one bed…..whatever are we to do???? They’ll definitely make a joke about it but they’re pretty attentive and would be able to pick up on MCs feelings. If they seem uncomfortable, L will take the floor or keep a respectful distance in bed. Otherwise—do you want to be the big spoon or the little spoon? :3 They’ll probably only cuddle until mc falls asleep before leaving the bed—they don’t always sleep very soundly…
Samira: Immediately insists mc take the bed; she will take the floor. It’s only proper and she’d likely only be kept awake by nerves if she dared share the bed with mc. Could perhaps be convinced by an mc willing to be more stubborn/insistent than her (after a battle of wills), but she is stubbornly facing the opposite direction. No way is she letting mc see her face.
Aurynn: (after making one too many suggestive jokes) He’ll take the floor if mc wants the bed but could you at least deign to spare him a blanket and a pillow? Please and thank you. G’night ✌️If mc offers to share the bed, expect no small amount of smug teasing. Could be coaxed into behaving and being a good cuddle partner but with a more combative/embarrassed mc he’ll probably spend a good amount of time fighting over the blanket to annoy mc (and getting footed to the floor). He likely wouldn’t spend the night in bed tho as he tends to sleep quite fitfully and might wake mc.

RO's reactions and choice to either save MC and sacrifice the world, or save the world and sacrifice MC.
Kieran: Loyal to a fault and so can be woefully stubborn at times. They want both so they’ll have both; they’ll make damn sure of it. Besides—they’ve never been one to back down from a challenge.
Nihm: So cruel—either way it would leave blood on their hands T_T ;( They couldn’t possibly trade one for the other. They’d attempt instead to take MCs place, if it means sparing both the world and mc.
Lilith/Lucien: It’s not their choice to make but they’re ride or die. If mc is going to sacrifice themself for the world, then so will L. They’re with mc every step of the way. Though it would tear at their conscience either way, whatever MC’s choice, they do it together.
Samira: Hm. 🤔 So as to avoid major spoilers all I’ll say for her is that she would not accept those as the only two options. 👀
Aurynn: If it’s down to him? Welp. Goodbye world. 👋 If mc is hellbent on sacrificing themself tho and he can’t convince them otherwise, then Aurynn’s coming with. Mc is not leaving him here alone.

RO reactions to seeing the MC wearing their clothes?
I’ll answer assuming post relationship :)
Kieran: they didn’t really think it would affect them much cuz they’re just clothes and Kieran’s not materialistic, but seeing mc in their nightshirt feels intimate and domestic and fills them with a sense of fondness—they find themself staring/sneaking glances over the edge of their book
Nihm: (unless mc is also a shrimp how did you manage to fit into that??) thinks it’s cute and is totally willing to share everything they own with mc but also confused as to the reason and thinks maybe mc didn’t have a change of clothes so they offer their nicest and favorite clothes to mc if they want to wear those instead
Lilith/Lucien: hell yeah 👍 what’s theirs is yours. But also they get a swell of the warm and fuzzies where they just need to squeeze mc til they pop so it’s time to come to bed to get snuggled
Samira: endearing to her; she’s used to seeing mc dressed like royalty so seeing them dressed down in her more modest clothes feels so domestic and just makes her want to bring mc home to Aspyn <3
Aurynn: tells them they’ve put it on backwards or inside out so he can watch mc take it off and put it on again (or at least spend a moment figuring out he was lying) which gives him time to sidle up to mc nose to nose to “help” them fix it

Not to be horny on main or anything (is that rven allowed? I can’t remember 😭😭) but can I ask what the ro’s turn ons are? And maybe tbey’re reaction to accidentally turning the MC on?? Wpwbdpdbosfh sorry if this id like totally weird and not allowed feel free to give me the boot forever 🙏🙏 ALSO ALSO your story is amazing and so is your writing and I can’t wait to see where this story goes !! Never forget to hydrate well king (gn)
No worries lol NSFW asks are totally fine; I’ll just answer them under a cut for those who’d prefer not to read them. :) Also thank you I’m glad you enjoyed it and stay hydrated as well!! ❤️ (I love water so much my family is sick of hearing me talk about it)
Kieran: Difficult to break, but is sensitive along the scalp. Hair-pulling is sure to crack their composure. Post-relationship, if they accidentally turned mc on they’d find it hard to concentrate on what they’re supposed to be concentrating on and would find themself staring at mc with dark glazed-over eyes.
Nihm: Sensitive along the spine. Most easily aroused by an mc that is much more forward and hungry in their appetite but in rarer instances they can sometimes switch that role. Also enjoys a spot of monsterfucking in fiction. (Idk I just like the idea of them seeming so innocuous and bland in their tastes and making some offhand comment that reveals their taste in monsters and everyone being like ‘what’). Can be painfully oblivious at times and probably wouldn’t realize they’d accidentally turned mc on unless the mc explicitly told them they had or unless it was very plainly visible 😳
Lilith/Lucien: Pet-play and praise. Pat their head and call them a good boy/girl. Also sometimes a bit of voyeurism or humiliation, especially if it puts their partner in a position of dominance and them in a position of obedience/subservience—but expect to work for their obedience. If they accidentally turned mc on, they’re gonna have to restrain themselves from pouncing immediately but they’re definitely smug and fascinated by it. Also expect them to get off to the memory of it later.
Samira: Sensitive around the neck—any kind of light touching/nuzzling/whispering would make her squirm a bit despite her best efforts not to. Also enjoys toying with an mc that is not verbally upfront with their feelings or is combative about them. If she accidentally turned mc on she’d probably be torn between ‘oh gods I’ve messed up big time’ (with her patron and royalty no less) and being amused and wanting to push MCs buttons further.
Aurynn: Difficult to actually make him aroused at least pre-relationship. He’s used to a degree of control regarding his own arousal. Post-relationship, smaller genuine acts of intimacy would be enough to leave him wanting. Ya done fucked up if MC gets noticeably turned on in front of Aurynn because he will not forget it and he will use it at the most inopportune times to drive MC up a wall.

Ro's reaction to complimenting self-conscious MC and MC js responds with something like "What? I look like shit today 😔" ???? I was gonna make this ask more angsty like MC is sobbing in their room or wtv but I can't describe angst for the life of me :p
I actually had been musing about a moment sort of like this where like the RO is staring at MC admiring them or compliments them and a self-conscious MC is sort of solemn and dismissive of it or like “it’s nothing you haven’t seen before/nothing so worthy of such admiration” and turns away etc — not really as angsty but I hope you don’t mind if I answer along these lines since it’s pretty similar? :) (Assuming post relationship)
Kieran: “And? So too have I seen the moon reflected o’er glittering sapphire waters a thousand times, and each time is just as mesmerizing as the first.” (turns MCs face towards theirs with a finger to their cheek to continue staring)
Nihm: “You know, where my mother comes from, they believe the face you are born with is the face of someone you loved so dearly in another life. I think it’s a lovely thought. How can you hate the face of someone you loved so, so much, once, long ago, in another time, another place? This face must have been dear to you once—it is to me.”
Lilith/Lucien: (Slowly and gently takes MC’s hand and intertwines their fingers in the space between them as they crook a finger under MC’s chin to turn their face back towards L’s) “Come, don’t hide from me, my amaranth. Ah! There’s my favorite face. Have I not been vocal enough about how much I do enjoy staring at you? If so, allow me to rectify that.” (jumps into a long reel of compliments and flattery that becomes more and more absurd until they finally make mc crack a smile or laugh)
Samira: “You walk with your head bowed still as a nodding lily. Chin up—I should think, after everything, a face as dear as yours should bow to no one, least of all to yourself. If your vision is clouded then let me be your mirror. If I could give you just one thing, it would be my own eyes, so you could see yourself through them as I do, even if only once.”
Aurynn: Maybe a little bit spoilery but “…? I’d have thought royalty would be a better judge of beauty. (sigh) I mean, c’mon. You look just like the charming prince(ss/ps) stepped straight out of one of those fairytales I used to—ahem, er, never mind.” (falls into an obstinate silence and if they aren’t in public, he quietly removes his gloves instead and intertwines their fingers—this is a very vulnerable gesture for him)

That last ask made me think, if Parim were still around somehow what would be his opinion on each of the ROs for his baby sibling? What would be his ranking from most to least favourite?
He wouldn’t really be the type to rank them as such, as he trusts that if MC chose to marry that person, they love/trust them and his primary concern is that MC will be happy and secure in their marriage. Marriages in Theia, even between nobles, prioritize emotional compatibility/attraction whenever possible after all. His scrutiny of each RO would be carried out very subtly and cordially. I’ll answer more based on early(ish) impressions 🤔—at least those he would voice aloud with MC.
Kieran: “I’d have thought certainly you’d be spitting feathers over such a match, but…I suppose there was never anything to worry about. Do they make your heart sing? I thought so—it’s all in your eyes, lovebird. What? I should think some amount of teasing was to be inevitable here. Though—if it makes you feel any better—I’d have said the same about your Lunar Prince/ss. It is quite obvious in the way they look at you.”
Nihm: “Well, now that’s a lark. I saw it coming, I suppose. The little thing never stops talking about you. Nor the scarabs in the garden. Be careful you don’t let them catch sight of Ember’s jewel scarab—the poor thing might die of excitement before you’ve even a chance to marry them.”
Lilith/Lucien: "A bit of an odd bird, to be sure, but the two of you seem to...click, strangely enough. I dare say you’ve got them wrapped around your little finger. Ah—but, how best to phrase this? Are you sure they're, ah..." (gestures vaguely to his head) "...entirely in fine feather?"
Samira: “She has always seemed a tempering presence for you. Plus, she seems to have perfected moving you even when you are being most willfully obstinate. It’s like you’re already married. Do you care for her, then? Then do not worry over the difference in station. I shall handle convincing Father. Leave it to me, little bird.”
Aurynn: “…Oh? No, you’re right, I apologize—it’s not amusing in the slightest. Nor should I be surprised, I suppose. He does, after all, have a reputation for charming the birds off trees, does he not? Now, now—I didn’t mean to ruffle any feathers, little bird. It was only an observation. But I’m sorry, I shouldn’t tease. So…what was it that inevitably spurred you from your branch?”

nsfw so feel free not to answer but RO's reaction to finding MC "taking care of themselves" and moaning RO's name
Answered under the cut! :)
Kieran: Can’t get out an apology quick enough and swiftly exits the room. Stands there all stiff and awkward in the hallway until they recover. There’s no way they heard that right…..right? Can’t stop thinking about it. Like all the time. Starts losing spars with mc bc they’re distracted by The Question: did they hear that right?
Nihm: “OH MY GODS IM SO SORRY!” (slams door and leans against it for a moment red-faced as they register what mc was saying) Gods forbid they run into anyone on the way back to their room or they’re gonna scream something along the lines of “I WASNT PEEPING!!!”
Lilith/Lucien: (leans against the door, a very, very shamelessly smug smirk on their face)“Getting off all by yourself, gorgeous?” They’re always willing to offer a helping hand or mouth 👍
Samira: Exits quickly and quietly before mc notices her. Absolutely no way she heard that right….but also some part of her guiltily feels somewhat…self-satisfied… She’ll also make mental note of that—start annoying her and she’s going to start subtly prodding to get a reaction out of mc while playing innocent/oblivious.
Aurynn: (dodging thrown socks) “One: the door wasn’t locked. Two: yes, I did knock. Not my fault you were moaning my name so loudly you didn’t hear.” (dodges pillow) “And three: if you need some better source material to get off on, you can always just ask me—ey, NOT THE VASE!”
