1 & 2 & 3

1. When faced with babysitting a child, how does the task go?

they’re both covered in paint and raphie’s probably also covered in glitter and stickers as well. his hair’s tied up in a few different scrunchies. the house is not very clean when you get home. it looks like they had fun, though.

2. There has been noises in the forest near where they live at night, they decide to go investigate, what and who do they bring with them and why?

he brings aster and/or adalaide because they’re strong motherfuckers that he trusts to take care of themselves. he also brings his sword because he’s so practiced with it it’s like an extension of his arm at this point—if he needs to protect himself this will be the best weapon for him to use.

3. They are going to go get an impulsive tattoo, what of and where?

the classic mom heart on his bicep lol

#things im never over: what a big stupid mommas boy raphie is #;;ooc #;;anon

Water Lily Pond, Claude Monet

#;;picturesque

name: raphael james proulx

nickname: raphie, riff raph

gender: male

romantic orientation: raphie! loves! boys!

preferred pet names: if he really loves you he loves anything you call him but ‘baby’ makes his little gay heart flutter

opinion on true love: he thinks it’s real, if hard to come by.

opinion on love at first sight: not love, not real. he’s lusted at first sight but he’s never looked at anyone and immediately thought he was in love. it takes a lot of time for raphie to build up real romantic feelings.

how ‘romantic’ they are: he’s an absolute sap. he won’t admit it, and it’s not something he really says, but when he loves someone he really goes out of his way for them. raphie’s more action-oriented so he does a lot of (subtle) romantic gestures, like making drawings of someone or for them. it’s not always apparent because he can be a stubborn ass, but he bends over backwards for people sometimes. it’s hard to see if you don’t know him well or aren’t looking for it.

ideal personality traits: kind, gentle, funny, patient

unattractive physical traits: being shorter than him, beards/mustaches, bony

unattractive personality traits: snobby, egotistical, perfectionist, shrewd

ideal date: going downtown and hitting up the art museum, then maybe heading over to the park for a nice little picnic or getting lunch somewhere

do they have a type?: if he’s going to date them, he has a very big soft spot for sweet boys with gentle hearts. and if he’s going to be serious about it it’s someone he’s very close with. in general he likes Pretty Boys a lot

average relationship length: a couple months, he’s prone to having short non-committal flings.

preferred non-sexual intimacy: couch cuddles and lazy sleepy kisses. hand holding. you wouldn’t expect him to be so affectionate but raphie love love loves to snuggle and be close to his partners. he especially likes napping in their lap.

commitment level: depends? usually he’s pretty cavalier about it but if he’s like. actually in love he’s very committed

opinion of public affection: LOVES IT. he wants Everyone to know that yes this is his absolutely gorgeous boyfriend and no you can’t flirt with him. he also doesn’t really care what literally anyone thinks about him kissing his boyfriend in public. if he wants to kiss his boyfriend he’s going to kiss his boyfriend.

past relationships: lots of flings, he had something that he was sort of serious about for a couple months but he didn’t communicate that well and then he got cheated on oopsie! he’s had a few short very not serious flings since then, and then he fell in love with his best friend and,, has not done much about it currently.

Fun OC Questions

1. When faced with babysitting a child, how does the task go?

2. There has been noises in the forest near where they live at night, they decide to go investigate, what and who do they bring with them and why?

3. They are going to go get an impulsive tattoo, what of and where?

4. Oh no, your OC has had a bad day, what song to the sing/scream at the top of their lungs to try and make themselves feel better? Who hears this awful rendition of this song?

5. Night has fallen over the town and your OC is looking for something to do, what are their plans?

6. Your OC accidentally befriended a person twice their size, but hey, they just want to talk about puppies and flowers, does this friendship stay strong over the years?

7. Your OC tries to convince the guards to let them go, how does this work out?

8. When your OC falls into a pit they look up to see a wolf twice their size, do they get scared or try to befriend it?

9. Oh no, your OC got lost in a huge city how do they find their way to where they are supposed to be?

10. So, your OC thought this was going to be a normal day, but three milkshakes, two puppies and one motorcycle later, nothing is normal anymore. What do they do with the milkshakes, puppies and motorcycle?

11. There is a carnival in town and lucky for OC, they got a ticket to get in, however they got roped into being into the trapeze act, how does this go?

12. There has been someone vandalizing the streets with spray-paint, your OC tries to figure out who it is because they wish to commission something from them. How does your OC try to figure out who it is?

13. Your OC has been on the run from the authorities for months now and doing an amazing job at it. However, once they move to a new town and they try the bakery’s cupcakes, this sends your OC into a down hill spiral of possibly getting caught due to being out in public so often to go and get more cupcakes. The bakery doesn’t have a delivery service and your OC is determined to get more cupcakes, so they try and charm the baker into giving them the recipe. How does this go?

Kindest thing Mora has ever done for you? Does she ever call you any nicknames? Do you call her anything besides mother?

“Well, I just call my mom Mom or Momma–mother’s kinda formal, y’know. Maybe if I was introducing her I’d say my mother, but probably only if we were meetin’ a king or some shit, y’know.

“And she calls me lots of things, like uh,” he scratches the back of his neck a little awkwardly laughing, “like dear heart. She calls me her dear heart.” His ears are tinted red but his smile is genuine, crinkling the corners of his eyes.

“ ‘s kinda sappy, yeah. It’s sweet, though. My momma’s real sweet–she’s a great lady. Like, really great. She’s done a lot of nice things for me, like lettin’ me keep a dog, uh,” his smile wanes a little as he thinks, “makin’ me go see Nadine when I got sick or hurt–I always got mad at her for makin’ me do that, but it was right, y’know.” He pauses, crossing his arms and looking a little thoughtful.

“I think, though, the nicest thing my mom ever did for me was take me in. Maybe that’s a shitty cop-out of an answer, but I’m being honest. The only reason I’m not a complete shithead is because of her, y’know? She raised me right,” he nods, “and I wouldn’t even be half the man I am today if it weren’t for that. My momma’s smart, and she taught me a lot.” He grins and laughs loudly as he adds, “Must’ve been pretty hard, too, since I was such a pigheaded jackass!”

Raphie hasn’t left her bedside since he got here--it’s been a long, long night, and he is more than exhausted after the ambulance ride and everything else. He gets up despite the sleepy aches and turns the lights off for her. It’s a lot better once it’s dark, although it is hard to see. He doesn’t mind; the fluorescent lights were giving him a headache after these last few hours, too.

“Uh no, Momma,” he says, quietly sitting back down, “you had a heartattack. I mean, that did make you fall pretty hard, but uh, ‘s more serious than that. You, um,” he fiddles with the string in his hands a little absently, “you actually died, for a minute there. They had to resuscitate you.”

She’s right, though. She is breathing now. She’s breathing, and she’ll be alright. Raphie focuses on his knot--just a few loops here, a couple of tugs there. He knows the Emperor’s Hat by heart, now. It’s difficult to tie--especially in the dark--but that’s what keeps his attention, having to tie and retie and start all over when his shaky hands miss a loop. He doesn’t have the chronic tremors like she does, but he’s been nervous. He sneaks a glance over at her before getting back to his knot.

“How’re you feelin’, Momma?”
