#we are deserving of penance (ardbert headcanons)

[bladeshowers]

what does your muse's bedroom look like? is it cluttered or clean? do they use the overhead lighting, or use lamps and other things to provide a better ambience? do they make their bed every morning or leave it unmade?

Soo depending on the character...

Amara is extremely neat. She has a lot of things - a lot of high quality fine things - but they all have a place. Her house tends to both feel barely lived in but also yet very personalized. She really enjoys creating moods so she's comfy when she's home. Her bedroom is a more sensual place with candles. Her kitchen is super organized and has overhead lighting. Amara has a lot of plants.

Evan is a chaotic and organized mess. Her place has things scattered about everywhere but she can usually find everything she needs. She's not a woman who keeps an organized pantry or separates her knives and forks in the drawer. She has a lot of fish tanks in her basement to keep the rare fishes she catches. There are portraits and sketches she's done strewn up on the walls. Her house is primarily green and she probably painted a mural in her bedroom.

Ardbert likely has/would have a cleanish place. He puts things roughly back where they should go. He likes wood and metal. Skylights. He isn't there as often as he likes which is also why it's fairly clean as he's generally disorganized.

WHAT SOFT ROMANCE CLICHÉ ARE YOU?

the almost kiss

you're unsure about things, always hesitating. why is that? maybe there's something to lose for you, but maybe (just maybe) the risk is worth it. you're the moment when the main characters lean in, lips parted and almost touching. but it's not the actual kiss everyone loves, it's the anticipation. when they look into each other's eyes before their lids flutter close. and there's a lot of frustration when things are interrupted. trust me though, you're a lot more memorable than the actual kiss. you're nervous, but at the end of the day all you want is to be loved.

because i love you!

passionate; you are the heated moment of an argument. when the person you care for has done something outrageously stupid or dangerous. all of your pent up emotions that you've kept inside of you come bursting out: "beCAUSE I LOVE YOU!" how could they be so dense. how could YOU be so dense. you've loved each other this whole time. your love tends to be strong, and loud. sometimes it might be hard for you to express your feelings but you let people know that they are cared for. you're also hot. good for you.

Would they date a fixer-upper? [All!]

Evan - Yes. Like her first headcanon ship I have for her is with a Foulques. So she definitely doesn't shy away from the type. She's just picky about what she'll accept from a partner in terms of treatment. Someone can be a bit of a mess as long as they treat her halfway decently and take care of themselves.

Amara - Yeeep. Pretty much the same as Evan. Although a lot of her ships thumb jerk at Amon/Fandaniel would probably fall under that category. She loves to have someone as messy and dramatic as her. She kind of thrives and feeds off the drama and passion.

Ardbert - Probably. More susceptible than the others.

Y'Shtola - No. She has the same standards in a partner that she has of herself.

Venat & Zero - both don't really date. I'll see how Zero develops as I play them but /shrug emoji

Kalli - Yes, with limitations.

Kink: Dom/Sub Dynamic?

scale: fuck no, gross, not for them, eh, no opinion, kinda, hot, fuck yes, p l e a s e do this

Amara is VERY down but only in the bedroom. That one is very much a bratty bottom and occasional dom. Ardbert would warm up to it but I don't think he'd be super good at it. I view him as very switch-y most of the time. He can be very dominant but he's also very goofy and silly sometimes and enjoys having fun. Evan I'm not fully sure about, as she's never been in that situation/had anyone propose it. She's more naturally submissive though and tends to naturally let her partners decide things unless it's something she has a strong opinion about.

Kink: Voyeurism?

scale: fuck no, gross, not for them, eh, no opinion, kinda, hot, fuck yes, p l e a s e do this

They are all super into it, especially when it's watching their romantic partner get themselves off or mutual masturbation. Ardbert is less vocal about being into it as he doesn't want to be seen as weird but...yeah he is.

[bladeshowers]

Kink: orgasm control

scale: fuck no, gross, not for them, eh, no opinion, kinda, hot, fuck yes, p l e a s e do this

Ardbert wants to make his partner beg and plead, though he's less into being made to beg himself. (But he's still into it don't worry.) Amara claims she prefers doing it to her partner, but truthfully, she LOVES when they toy with her and is at their mercy. Evan enjoys giving and receiving in equal measure :3c

[bladeshowers]

Kink: overstimulation?

scale: fuck no, gross, not for them, eh, no opinion, kinda, hot, fuck yes, p l e a s e do this

Make them all quiver and shake. Also expect for them to do it for you if they're in control ;)

[bladeshowers]

Kink: Exhibitionism

scale: fuck no, gross, not for them, eh, no opinion, kinda, hot, fuck yes, p l e a s e do this

Depends on the type. Ardbert is into putting a bit of a show on for his partner if you know what I mean ;D Amara likes putting on a show for her partner as well, but she could be convinced depending upon who the audience is and if they're consenting. Evan would probably be down if everyone is on board though she'd be really shy after.

Kink: Tentacles

I ran out of vaguely sexual icons and I'm lazy so. :D

scale: fuck no, gross, not for them, eh, no opinion, kinda, hot, fuck yes, p l e a s e do this

None of my muses have excuses for this, but look, Amara is the worst she has a ship with a voidsent and loves him whether he looks more human or more voidsent so. ALSO SEA WITCH AU!!! I know I gave her a mermaid tail but WHAT IF-

Ardbert and Evan refuse to admit they'd probably be into it but well -

[bladeshowers]

shibari?

scale: fuck no, gross, not for them, eh, no opinion, kinda, hot, fuck yes, p l e a s e do this

Ardbert is kind of mixed on it, but he'll do it if his partner is into it, either giving or receiving. Amara is into it with a partner she trusts and loves. Evan is more interested in tying up a partner, but she'd do it once because she thinks she'd look pretty that way.

[bladeshowers]

Toys?

scale: fuck no, gross, not for them, eh, no opinion, kinda, hot, fuck yes, p l e a s e do this

Amara is all for them. Ardbert thinks they're hot but hasn't encountered them on his own yet so people are going to open his eyes and show him this grand new world. Evan can take or leave them and is only vaguely aware they are a thing that exists. She will try anything and is open to experiencing it though. She'd end up really liking them being used on her or pegging a partner with them.

[bladeshowers]

Public places?

scale: fuck no, gross, not for them, eh, no opinion, kinda, hot, fuck yes, p l e a s e do this

Amara, Ardbert, and Evan all share this opinion. Do with this information what you will :'D Ardbert is shyer about it though.
