i feel like he's the type to create a genuine bond with a person first before dating them
he's not the type to rush into love, he takes time to get to know someone, you know?
and with that i bring you the friends to lovers martin agenda 2025
he loves drawing on your arms
at first, it started out as really small doodles on the back of your hand
then he drew a personalized bracelet on your wrist while you two were on the bus and stuck in traffic, which became a tradition every time there's traffic
and then one day, while you're on your phone doing something, he just goes, "can i draw on your arm?" and you went, "of course :D"
he was kinda nervous at first because he really, really wants to impress you, but you noticed and calmed him down a bit
martin seems like the type to keep different colored pens on him so you have #variety
he lets you pick the color/s and asks if you want something specific to be drawn
when you said no and let him have the freedom to do whatever he wants, ohh, he was in the zoneee
sososo cute, he's so focused, his eyebrows were scrunched, and his lips are pursed
when he was done, you were borderline conked out so he was debating whether to wake you up or risk the chance of his hard work potentially scrubbing off onto your white bedsheets
but you woke up on your own when you felt that he stopped drawing on you, so
he was like 😁 it's done now, what do you thinkkkk?
you loved it sm you posted it on pinterest
it was practically a half sleeve with how big it was, and you almost cried when you had to take a shower the next day
he reassures you that it's fineeee he could just draw another one (he was cheesing internally, lol he's probably like, "wow, my drawing meant that much to her, omg omg, i love my gf.")
after that, he got soooo much more creative!! he started bringing skin-safe markers and stuff
on the other hand, he gets so giddy and red and giggly when you're the one drawing on him
he keeps saying things like, "wow, that's so good," "woah, that looks nice," "yo, that's sick"
he's tucking your hair behind your ear and brushing the stray hairs away from your face while you tell him about the drama going on around your school, and he's got this dopey ass smile like 😍
got soooo loud when you were done, he was hooting and hollering and jumping everywhere while flexing (literally and figuratively) his arms
took care of it so dearly he got heated when the boys were chasing him with literal baby wipes and alcohol as a joke
did a fit check picture with his arm out for everyone to see on the elevator mirror (iykyk), and it's one of the most famous pictures of him up to this day
remember the drawing he did on your arm that you posted on pinterest? yeah, someone posted it on twitter alongside the picture of him in the elevator beside it, and the caption goes like, "this is soooo martin coded"
and he trended because, duh
someone brought it up during a live, and he was smiling ear to ear like a dumbass
"martin, were you the one who drew on your arm?"
and he just responds with, "nooo haha, someone did," and does a chad face
literally the opposite of nonchalant, i know, but he's just so normal and chill about things and so bf
^ the way he puts his arm around the back of the couch when you sit beside him, the hand at the bottom of your spine when walking side by side while leaning down to your level so he could hear you more clearly
hoodies!!! he already owns sooo many of them, but they quadrupled and multiplied the moment the two of you got together
he doesn't even buy it for himself he just goes, "ohh, this is pretty comfy, she's going to love this"
knows all the godly hidden spots and hole in the wall food stalls
but! his favorite is this old tteokbokki stall at the literal end of a night market run by a sweet old lady
you guys went there on your first date, and he took the opportunity to get to know you better while walking the longggg path over there
yes, it was absolutely planned. at first, he was like, "naaah, it's too far. it might not even be worth it for her it's just tteokbokki you know"
but it was THE tteokbokki spot for him, and he thought about how romantic it would be to chat with you while walking
he was imagining k-drama scenes in his head,
"i'm going to go tease her, and then i'm going to run when she gets pissed, and she's going to run after me, and then i'll suddenly stop to catch her in my arms and—"
comes the actual date, and he's literally like "🧍♂️hey haha how r u," and you guys walked in silence for a hot minute before he asked you something about music
and then it transpired to whose playlist was better
you arrive at the stall and ordered tteokbokki, right? while you were waiting, you suggested listening to martin's playlist while he listens to yours
he was like, "prepare to lose," and the two of you plugged in your earphones
you were so focused on critiquing his playlist that you didn't notice him looking absolutely dumbstruck by you
but halmeoni did and was like, "ahhh, young love"
martin turned red, and when you're done, you asked him why he's, you know, red, and he just goes, "the tteokbokki's spicy, that's all"
and you teased him for having "low" spice tolerance, and he just lets you
he and halmeoni meet eye to eye when you were just leaving, and she goes and mouths, "take care of her, young man," while holding a big ass spatula
then you guys go to the same spot every monthsary, and the nice old lady started recognizing you both
she goes "aigoooooooo" every time she sees you and asks you if martin's been taking care of you well 🥹🥹
hehe, halmeoni gets happy whenever the two of you visit; she got to see both of you grow more comfortable with each other as time went by, aw
loves loves loves photobooths
he thought of going to photoboooths with you the night you two started dating and couldn't stop smiling for 3 hours
will turn his head at you the moment he even hears someone walk by and utter the word "photobooth"
your pictures w him during the first few dates were cute and silly poses
now it's just him kissing you (calm down) in 368292 ways and you in his lap (calm down) even though the booth could probably handle three people at once
pictures of you everywhere in the back of his phone, in his phone as a wallpaper, in his wallet, his room, his travel bag, probably underneath his bed as an easter egg for you to find, idk
you guys had your first kiss with each other at a photobooth
you can see in the photo sequence when was the exact moment he asked if he could kiss you
the four-grid photo strip ended with a very cute kiss in the end <33
^^ this is the picture that's on the back of his phone
moving on, i need you to be calm and read the next two bullets with nothing but pure intentions okay
he likes kissing you literally everywhere but your lips (in public, at least)
kiss on the cheek as a greeting, or the occasional kiss on the forehead when he's talking to his friends with his arms around your shoulder, the kiss at the back of your head when he's behind you in a line, a kiss on your knuckles when the two of you are doing nothing
aside from the obvious fact that physical touch is his love language, i thinkkkk he also likes quality time
like you could invite him to lay on your bed and stare at the ceiling, and he'd be like, "this is so poetic, babe"
bear hugsssss so so warm and comfy
aww, when you're getting teary-eyed in public, he'd ask you if you want to hide that you're crying by hugging youuuuuu
his shirts are always so comfy and smell so nice
i don't know how to explain it, but he smells like,, a man,, okay
blackberry and mix it with a little bit of deodorant and a hint of musk
you always bury your nose in his neck when hugging or cuddling him, and it makes him giggle every time awwwhhh
calls you baby and pretty
called you babe in the first month of your relationship
you called him baby unconsciously once when you asked him to grab something for you
grabs it and gives it to you with a "here you go, baby"
you called him dork once as a joke, and he was like, "ohhh, you're so in love with me, aren't you????????"
now you always call him dork when you're not calling him babe
loves it when you call him tin, but he adores getting called by silly names (ex. dork)
his absolute favorite is borzoi 😭😭😭
it's so special to him because that's his contact name on your phone too
at first, he was like, "hello????" but he just laughed it off afterwards with you when you showed him photos of a borzoi
if you have a cute and normal pet like a cat or dog, he'd treat them as his firstborn
if you have pet reptiles,,
would be so intrigued with a bearded dragon
he'd kinda joke around with it until beardie started running towards him
and bearded dragons run fast okay
tried to jump into your arms, and you just laughed at him
"heh, you look kinda stupid— babe, BABE"
screamed when he first saw your ball python
you assure him that no, it's not a random snake that waltzed its way into your room, and that yes, she's completely docile and doesn't bite
"tin, she doesn't bite >:(," "YES IT DO"
^^^ in relation?? HELLO, he'd totallyyyyy be the type to say vine references
his go to is renata bliss, and he'd do the fuckass freestyle dance too 😭😭😭
has a collection of bracelets
including the thin black ones that you could layer, yes yup
he kinda transfers them to your own wrists when you're holding hands :((
i think he has a higher than average spice tolerance, not the highest spice tolerance, but the tolerance is there regardless
loved the takis + cream cheese on a jalapeño food hack
still does it to this day
fave fridge raid munch are pickles with mustard
likes pickles and loves olives
pineapple on pizza believer unfortunately, wbk
he was salivating when he saw the savory snack plate in his fyp and whined in your arms for fifteen minutes when he couldn't find half of the ingredients in nearby lolllllll
unrelated-ish, but he likes mixing ranch with ketchup
made the tiffany plate once, and you both looked at each other after taking a bite of RAW broccoli dipped in mustard and cottage cheese and decided that some trends just aren't meant to be done
had a protein recipe phase dykwim
lists off the ingredients before feeding you anything ever since he accidentally gave you a milkshake with a wholeass egg in it
protein pancakes are a big no. he used too much protein, and it literally turned into rubber
hmmm, i think can cook decently, not the best per se, but he's not completely helpless in the kitchen
needs a recipe if he's making something, that kinda thing
he bakes one hell of a brownie, man
genuinely surprised you because it looked store-bought from a bougie french café
and he's like, "haha nooo, i made them!" with a huge chunk of chocolate between his teeth
fudgyyyyy on the inside, and the crust ?????
oh, he would fuck up a seafood boil
peels you shrimps, but he makes them kiss beforehand ???
he’s the opposite of a picky eater so he’s down to eat whatever with you
you joked once that you want to eat those deep fried insects and he starts showing you his literal bucket list of exotic and weird foods he’d like to try
loves it when you lay on his chest like
he lets out the biggest satisfied sigh ever then hugs you closer to him
his stomach does that stomach noise where it sounds like something is melting and growling, and the acids in his stomach are mixing together, idk
pretty sure that's normal — but what is not normal is that it only seems to happen a lot when he's with you
he listens to your stomach when he's laying down on your tummy, lol
"woah, babe, that's like the hot sauce and the fries we had earlier" what
knocks the fuck out the moment his head hits your mattress
you coming over to his room is okay, okay. you two do whatever, he recreates the single ladies music video, he makes you laugh, cuddle yadda yadda
him coming over to your room, on the other hand
he just becomes soooooo soft
like everything smells like you, and it's filled with everything you love
cuddling in his bed pales in comparison to laying beside you in your bed alone
he gets so sleepyyyy don't invite him to do homework in your room the two of you will not finish shit
imagine him with his head on your stomach, and you're laying down, and you're telling him some kind of story, right?
and he just replies with those "hmm" and and
you could feel it in your stomach, his voice vibrates through your body
and his arms are around you, and he's clutching onto you like you're something precious
