What’s all your suitors methods of courting?
Majority of these guys don't have finalized designs I fear! But I'm gonna include them anyway
hopefully I answered the question right hehe. kinda also leans a bit into what would come from dating them in general!
Antinous: Very straightforward and a bit forceful with his flirting and comments. He commands attention and is frustrated when he doesn't get the response he want. He would provide the object of his attraction with some gifts, particularly fine furs and pelts from beasts he brought down himself. If he was GENUINELY in love, he's definitely an acts of service guy, and would do anything to impress or please them. Has many "conquests" but if someone truly captured his heart, he's shockingly loyal and WOULD burn the world down for them.
Eurymachus: HEAVY into the wining and dining. If Eurymachus is pursuing someone, expect lots of gifts and pretty words. He will find the most expensive things he can to give them and shower them in honeyed compliments. If he wants someone, he's highly likely to win them over with his charming persona. Don't expect anything real from him though. He'll sooner woo someone because he wants something out of any genuine love. In the case that he WAS genuinely in love though, he could be surprisingly considerate. He would continue with the gifts, but also offer pampering and genuine compliments freely, spoiling his partner deeply.
Amphinomus: Very warm and friendly, a massive sweetheart. Can be well-spoken and say very sweet things, but he's also young so he has a tendency to act a bit goofy when he's trying to impress someone. Lots of show-boating and showing off when it comes to feats of strength or athleticism. He also flirts a lot, but would back off if someone seemed uncomfortable at all. As a prince, expect some gifts and jewelry as well. Wears his heart on his sleeve, very open with his feelings. Would be an EXCEPTIONAL gentleman with his partner.
Leodes: Very quiet in his advances. It's almost hard to tell at first that he's pursuing you. He's generally even-tempered and calm, but a bit hard to read. However, he would show his interest in subtle ways. Mentioning that he saw signs and omens related to them, praying for them and making sacrifices in their name. Gifts chosen would be small but deeply thoughtful and personal. He's not a man who values wealth and worldly things. He would be a gentle and considerate partner, and be open enough to make light, almost sarcastic jokes and appropriate but still flirtatious remarks.
Agelaus: Agelaus is a laidback fellow, and thus his courting would be similarly laidback. It's not that he's lazy about it, he just doesn't expend as much effort as some of the others. He would primarily position himself as a listener instead of a talker, and he can be shockingly observant when it does come time to exchange gifts. If he's desperately into the courting, he might do favors of some kind for them and that's how you know he's genuinely invested. As a partner, he would be deeply loyal and affectionate, putting a bit more effort into his advances.
Amphimedon: Amphimedon is incredibly hard to read. The man almost never speaks, so it's a bit challenging to ascertain what his courting methods might be. He seems to carry the wound of a past relationship, and would sooner keep to himself than interact with anyone. If he WERE to court someone though, it would be interesting. Gruff, brusque compliments and bloody kills brought in from the forest and dropped on the table. A necklace made from bone and something sharp. A seemingly handmade wood carving. There might yet be a heart under that gruff exterior, but you'd be hard pressed to find it.
Ctesippus: Incredibly insufferable. He will not leave you alone if he's interested, I fear. He will take it a BIT easy on the pranks, keeping it mostly to light teasing and bothering and lots of coy flirting and slightly spicy remarks. He's also incredibly wealthy, so like Eurymachus he would provide the subject of his affections a lot of gifts. Jewelry, fine cloth, trinkets and baubles. He will take any opportunity to flex his wealth. He tends to invade personal space by default, but will back off if told to, shrugging in an unbothered "Suit yourself" fashion. As a partner you'd find yourself hard pressed to be rid of him.
bonus section! Including my ocs! (This is kind of a soft debut for for two of them, which are based on random names from the list of suitors 👀)
Nikolas: Nikolas is a prince, so one can probably guess he can be formal and polite. However, he's also quiet and thoughtful. When it comes to courting though, he would focus heavily on acts of service. He shows his devotion well with kind, thoughtful words. Any gift from him, no matter the size, is sure to be something that a person would deeply love. He brings food and kills he's hunted for those who truly hold his affections. As a partner, he would be incredibly devoted and gentle. He's quiet, yet not shy with his affection.
Cynnus: oh, he's not courting you. You're courting HIM. and it better be good too. He expects lots of gifts, praises, and spoiling. He will flirt heavily in order to get attention, but he DOES expect to be chased. He needs to be chased, really. He enjoys a good conversation, and perhaps a bit of ribbing. He will never admit just how much he needs genuine affection and warmth, opting towards something more formal. With a partner, he would be surprisingly generous with his compliments, and incredibly trusting with his heart.
Ormenius: This man is an interesting little creature, to say the least. He spends more of his time scheming and plotting than truly courting, but that doesn't mean he's not capable. His affections would be subtle. Warm words and sharp smiles, shared grins and sharp wits. Careful compliments whispered in an ear. He will absolutely take the opportunity to get gifts, and somehow would manage to get you something that you didn't even KNOW how much you needed. He can be thoughtful, if he so chooses, but there's also a little undercurrent of something beneath it, like you're playing with fire.
