★··»—›Tate Langdon
technically he doesn’t sleep, or need to
but he’ll still pretend he can if you wanna sleep with him
even if it’s him essentially lying there with his eyes closed and trying to keep his mind blank
there’s a good chance that the second you’re asleep he’ll just open his eyes and watch you though, thinking about you keeps the visions away
in terms of position, I think it’s needless to say he’d rather be held
whether you’re spooning him or holding him against you with his head on your chest, he’s happy
Tate seems like one of those people who sleep fully clothed, jeans on and all, biggest favor he’ll do you is take his shoes off if you ask
since he isn’t really asleep you don’t need to worry about noises or him moving, apparently with being dead you learn to stay still for long amounts of time
good chance he’ll pretend to still be asleep when you wake up and then coincidentally open his eyes within a couple of minutes and stir as if he needs a good stretch
if he does “wake up” first, he’ll be staring at you and smiling, and honestly it looks too sweet to be creepy (even if it slightly is), he might even say he dreamed about you just for the hell of it because he would if he could.
★··»—›Kit Walker
it’s not like you need to ask, if you’re with him you most likely already are married (or he plans to marry you if not) and live in his house
sleeping next to you is about as natural as breathing to him
such a large bed just so you can both be stuck to each other in the middle
unless you like your space or are the type to move a lot, he’ll usually sling an arm around your torso and pull you against him, head against his chest and all
it feels like a protective position and he likes that
he’s definitely sleeping in his white briefs and wifebeater, at most if it’s cold he might wear one of those classic flannel pants and button up PJs
besides you keep each other warm enough usually
he doesn’t move too much except on the rare occasion he’s getting a nightmare about briarcliff or the aliens
those nightmares usually wake him up anyway and he’ll get up to have a smoke outside the house before coming back to sleep and hold you a little tighter
if he wakes up before you (probably for work) he’ll kiss your forehead and reluctantly let go of you to start his day (with an effort to be extra quiet)
when he leaves early, if anything needs to be reminded for the day he’ll leave a note on the fridge with quick love you and a hastily drawn heart
on weekend mornings if you sleep in, the kids might join you and slide between you while trying to keep their giggles quiet
which delays getting up even more
he keeps telling them they gotta grow out of that but makes absolutely no effort to put it in practice
they probably will someday but for now just let them be kids and sleep in a little longer
★··»—›Frat!Kyle Spencer
you’ll probably be the one asking the first time and it would preferably be at your place because he isn’t so comfortable even having you over at his mother’s house or the frathouse
but it’ll be a very enthusiastic (secretly apprehensive) yes like a kid having their first sleepover
he was actually so nervous he didn’t sleep very well the first time but pretended like it was just the new environment—which is half correct and dismiss it as fine
at first he was a little hesitant with physical contact but eased into it over the nights (process is sped up if you initiated)
in fact now the default position is kind of all over each other, mutual holding
it’s not a very specific position, he doesn’t care
but he has a particularly soft spot for having you on his chest with one hand cradling your head and the other on your lower back while you have your arms around his back or neck
it’s comfortable, it’s safe, you’re real close and he can nuzzle his face into your hair and smell it (it’s just comforting don’t judge him), not to mention you can feel his heartbeat
I don’t think he puts too much thought into his jammies, probably sleeps in an old t-shirt and sweatpants, if it’s real hot he’ll sleep in his boxers and if it’s cold he’ll throw on an old hoodie with the graphic most likely faded and washed out
he doesn’t snore or move too much but he does get nightmares about his homelife and unknowingly starts making noise in his sleep
if it wakes you up and you wake him up in concern, he’ll apologize despite it not being his fault and might need a few minutes or maybe some light conversation before he goes back to sleep
if there’s nothing urgent in the morning like a lecture he might allow himself some laziness and stay in bed until one of you decides to be responsible and pull both of you out of bed
If he has plans or class and you don’t, he won’t wake you up and will instead kiss the nearest part of you before slowly sliding out of bed and tucking you in properly. If he has the time to make himself some breakfast, he’ll leave you some with a little post-it note and if he has to rush, he’ll leave a text for you to read when you wake up
★··»—›Franken!Kyle Spencer
A lot of similarities with his pre-death self
except that there is no asking phase, if you’re around, he’ll probably join you when you’re asleep like a scared child
he can’t exactly be on his own very much at the beginning even with just sleeping since his nightmares have gotten worse with his increased trauma
like they actually make him move around a lot before he eventually wakes up and loudly groans in anguish
He’ll need comforting for that because self soothing is a little complicated when the few memories you have of your life are the worst ones and your mind is all fragmented and foggy.
If you can’t read minds you probably won’t know what exactly you have to comfort him for since he can’t (and probably wouldn’t) communicate what exactly happened but as long as you’re there and seem calm or reassuring, it should be good enough; he tends to try and mimic your emotions, so just stay calm
Kyle still has a soft spot for the position previously mentioned because he’s particularly protective of the few things he holds dear in this world (i.e. you) however he does grow a certain kind of appreciation for reversing the roles and being held now
You’re essentially a teddy bear even if neither of you realize it in the sense that he’s purposely difficult if he has to sleep without you and you reassure him through nightmares and night terrors. Oh and you get squeezed just as much as a real one.
No, really, he can’t measure his strength and you woke up on a few occasions being suffocated or smothered while he was blissfully unaware.
He cares even less about sleepwear now since he’d sleep in whatever he’s given and probably would sleep in his day clothes if he wasn’t reminded to change.
He only gets up when you do, I mean he could wake up hours before you and wouldn’t budge unless he needed the bathroom or the world collapsed.
It’s essentially because his day depends on yours and until he gets better he’s not exactly trusted to roam around unsupervised anyway.
When you do get up, it’ll be a bit before he actually lets you go
I mean you’ll be standing and walking and he’ll still be holding you from behind and shadowing you despite how impractical it is until you tell him to let go.
★··»—›Jimmy Darling
He would invite you to sleep over a little jokingly, mostly an innuendo to sleep together but he does actually hope you’ll stay the night since people rarely do. His trailer gets a little lonely.
He also wouldn’t be opposed to sleeping at your place either.
A warm bed and you ? He’s convinced he couldn’t sleep better any other way.
After he’s done showing you how skillful he is with his hands, he just kinda lies there with you until one of you mentions you might as well sleep now which prompts you both to change and get into proper positions
Since his bed is a rather tight space, Jimmy is used to sleeping in a sort of fetal position to not use up much room.
With you in the equation, he sleeps in a similar sort of position facing you and tangling his legs with yours while giving you a little grin. He’ll hold your hand while he’s at it. Or sometimes he’ll reach out and trace his fingers down your spine while making light conversation or pillow talk.
There’s a chance the position might not stick since he moves a bit in his sleep and might turn around entirely but besides that his sleep is mostly untroubled
unless he’s been drinking, then it’s terrible and he’s slurring words in his sleep
Jimmy wouldn’t mind sleeping naked—and he has, but for actual sleepwear, he’s usually down to his briefs and maybe throws his wifebeater on if he feels like it. He’ll make the effort of throwing on the first pair of pants he can reach if he needs to go outside.
Jimmy usually wakes up at the same time everyday since the camp works on schedule and he is not missing breakfast, unless you make it worth his while. He’d let you sleep and try to casually bring a plate back to his trailer for you. If he’s at your place, he’d still wake up early out of habit and then get up to try and figure out how to make you something edible while you’re barely processing his absence in your bed.
★··»—›James Patrick March
once again, as a ghost, he doesn’t exactly need to sleep and once again, I’m not sure he even can
I don’t think he’d pretend to sleep either
but if you ask to “sleep” with him, he’ll happily oblige regardless
he’s a little thrown off at first since he isn’t used to sharing a bed (let’s be honest the countess did not share his bed after the wedding night)
And by that I mean he’ll probably lie on his side of the bed and call it a night until you tug him closer
you essentially have to move him in the position you want since it’s been a while since he last slept and once you’re comfortable he won’t move until you’re asleep
despite not needing any for a while, he probably has one of those classic silk pajama sets in black with initials embroidered on one side or pocket, with the robe and slippers to go with it once he’s up, please and thank you
so he won’t pretend he’s sleeping but he’ll still play his part in lying by your side (probably stare at you for a while) and pretending like he’s going through a morning routine once you’re up
whether he actually stayed the whole night is unsure, possibility is he got up to murder somebody and/or pour himself some absinthe but he’ll come right back anyway, so you’ll never know regardless
once you wake up he greets you good morning with whatever creative pet name he came up with during his hours of alone thinking and ask how you slept while moving your hair out of your face
★··»—›Kai Anderson
once you’re moved in with him, you’re sleeping in the same bed no questions asked
it’s called sharing a bed because it’s essentially how it is for a long while
you each have your sides and occasionally snap at each other over the blanket or room being taken up but that’s it
the only contact you’re having in it for a while is not sleeping iykwim
after a while and maybe after sex, you just might get the exclusive luxury of physical contact to sleep
this is Kai we’re talking about, don’t expect anything overly affectionate, the most you’d get is being pulled against his side like a stuffed animal and you aren’t expected to move or you’re losing that privilege for the night
for the most part if you want any kind of contact you’ll have to be the one to pull him back against you since he usually sleeps facing away from you
if he’s spooning you before you’re both asleep or once you’re awake ? Do not be fooled. He isn’t being sweet, he has other intentions in mind
not that the illusion would last very long anyway
he’s probably sleeping in a worn out hoodie or a long sleeved sweater and some loose comfortable pants, shirtless if it’s especially warm. He went to bed fully dressed on multiple occasions though
as for sleeping troubles, I don’t think he sleeps very long, be it adderall or insomnia, you’ll never know because he would dismiss the issue since he has better to do than sleeping anyway
so he’ll definitely wake up in the middle of the night and go do something else under the guise of being productive, 50/50 chance he’ll come back to crash in bed after a couple of hours
on the exceptional occasion that he wakes up at a decent morning hour (meaning 5-6AM), you’ll be waking up whether you like it or not because he makes no effort to be quiet or careful while he’s getting out of bed, it’s worth questioning whether he doesn’t shove you on purpose
either way your sleeping schedule will be forced to slowly mold into his because he’ll be pissy if you somehow come to bed after him and he’ll also be pissy if you “sleep in” (wake up after 6AM)
most of the time when you wake up he doesn’t even say good morning, no, it’s just “morning” and he already sounds grumpy. If you get more than that he’s pulling a whole quote, possibly from theater and he just might be mocking you, same treatment for good night. (think of the whole “good night sweet prince” shakespeare quote scene)
★··»—›Austin Sommers
He was quick to invite you over for a little “adult sleepover” as he called it, you’re still not sure if it was meant to come off as an innuendo or not, but with him it’s always fair to assume so
in fact he’s probably in bed before you are, lying on his back in the very middle with his arms behind his head while making it clear he’s been waiting for you
You can safely assume there’s a decent time gap between the moment you get on the bed and the moment you both actually tuck in to sleep, what else could you expect ?
That being said he can be surprisingly cuddly for sleeping, and a little childish about it too. Don’t turn away from him, he’ll just grab you and pull you back.
So in terms of position he likes being a little messy and essentially all over you — you aren’t getting up without waking him up which he will be very difficult about. As for the specifics, when he isn’t purposely trying to trample you he likes having his face in your neck, which always ends up with you teasing him for being a stereotypical vampire and being lightly bitten over it.
I can’t explain it but that man is a sleeptalker. Hell, he probably moans in his sleep, now whether what he’s dreaming about is related to the things he says is unknown since on the occasion he wakes up from a dream to jot down the idea, there’s a good chance he’ll scrap it by morning or rework it to oblivion and then it’s not even the same thing at all.
For sleepwear, the PJs from Charvet in Paris, they’re literally canon. Fancy, expensive, silk and dark in color, what more could you expect from him ?
The man is not a particularly heavy or light sleeper but he’s a big dreamer and since he works in a creative field, he does not like being woken up in the middle of a dream. That’s idea fuel, come on.
Also probably sleeps in particularly late just because he can. The deadlines are met so who’s gonna bother him about sleeping in until 12 ? Besides you, of course. Best of luck if you actually need to be up, he has no plans of making it easy for you.
★··»—›Peter Maximoff
He’d probably ask you to crash at his place (mom’s basement) first, in fact he probably did before you were even together but I digress
you still had to be the one to tug him to bed because unless he’s crashing after consuming too much sugar and caffeine, he’ll still be pumped for hours
honestly he strikes me as the type to dramatically throw himself onto the bed and accept whatever position he landed in as his fate, good luck molding yourself with that
it’s a bit of a pain in the ass to sleep with him because just like at any other point in his life; he can’t stay still
always gotta move a limb or two and within ten minutes, he’s in a drastically different position
either put some distance or put your whole weight onto him
if you chose to move aside, he’ll take that as a sign to relax and quit moving and will try to focus on that while pulling you back towards him like a petulant kid who’s plushie fell off the bed (which you probably did at least once because of him)
if you decided to use your weight on him ? also a good way to ground him although he might still be squirmy if you’re light enough, but ultimately he doesn’t want to accidentally push you away so he tries to hold you close
once he’s finally done wriggling like a worm ? Success, mission accomplished, Peter fell asleep. The world can finally be at peace (for now)
Besides his incessant moving pre-sleeping, he doesn’t have much trouble sleeping but he doesn’t exactly sleep as much as the average individual. But don’t think that hinders him, he’s already a menace by dawn.
He might’ve snored like twice in his life, second was with you and after you compared it to cartoon snoring (honk shoo mimimi, you see the vision), he swore to never sleep in whatever position that turned him into a cartoon character and internally doesn’t live it down
Oh the jammies are rad. Those kind of pjs with big franchise logos on the shirt and prints of that character all over the pants, you got him one of those sets with with Roadrunner from Looney Tunes and it’s his favorite, he treasures it like it’s worth gold (and he’s actively hunting for some matching Wile E Coyote ones to steal for you). That’s what he wears to bed, usually with socks. Oh and he always makes the roadrunner noise once he’s put them on as some kind of announcement he’s in PJs.
While he does wake up early, he knows better than to wake you up unless you specifically asked him to, so he tries his best to be discreet and move the covers back on you, he might snap a picture on occasion either to make fun of you if you’re drooling or just for safekeeping if it’s cute
but then again, you’re in the basement where all his cool stuff is, so you might eventually get woken up by sounds from a videogame console or arcade machine and he’ll snap his head around like he didn’t realize noise could reach your ears. Half assed apology.
In truth he’s glad you’re awake again because he was, expectedly, getting bored, as per usual.
for someone who has nothing to do all day, he doesn't spend much time sleeping, says it’s boring and thinks of it as a waste of time. He used to pull all nighters back in his high school days and would end up snoozing in class.
★··»—›Colin Zabel
Before you guys moved in together, it wasn’t exactly some sort of planned “wanna sleep over at my place ?” kinda thing but rather if you go on a date and end up in bed together, you spontaneously decide to spend the night together too. All with due agreement because he would never impose himself, he’d rather walk home in the middle of the night than inconvenience you.
Once you do share the same place, it’s just classic couple routine
he does his best to keep a consistent sleeping schedule despite his rather demanding job so he can spend the third of his day where he’s unconscious with you
I mean he genuinely set himself some kind of bedtime, you once saw a reminder on his phone pop up to go join you in bed, the notification seems to be set daily.
once you’re both done with your side by side night routine, he’s immediately in bed with his arm stretched out for you
you both don’t always sleep immediately, sometimes you’re reading next to each other (because he’ll keep reminding you phone before sleeping is bad) or sometimes you’re spending any leftover energy on each other
he’s more of a stomach sleeper so any position is a little difficult but he always keeps an arm out in your direction so you’re free to mold yourself as you please with that
if you do manage to get him on his side (too sleepy to move or already dozed off), then you have more freedom
the position is essentially whatever you want as long as you can work with that since he’s essentially dead weight once he’s sleeping
he’s also a particularly heavy sleeper and hence has multiple consecutive alarms since he doesn’t wanna be late to work (in which case he tries to make up for it by staying later and buying coffee for his colleagues)
Colin actually has specific clothes selected as sleepwear, not even like proper pj sets but a specific plain tshirt he decided was sleepwear and same for a pair of simple sweatpants. Oh and he sleeps like that no matter the weather or season. Although he does get particularly cold in winter so on occasion you’ll catch him throwing a sweatshirt on like he’s admitting defeat to the cold.
As previously stated, he has multiple alarms so more often than not, you wake up with him despite him not meaning to force you to do so. Half of the time you open your eyes before he does since his hand mechanically moves to the button to turn off the alarm like a teenage boy asking for five more minutes in bed before school.
Just nudge him awake and it should work out fine, he’ll encourage you to go back to sleep if you don’t need to be up early and kiss your forehead. Otherwise, you both get up and start your morning routines side by side.
★··»—›Cooper Day
Ideally he’d rather you ask, he’s considered the idea plenty of times but wasn’t sure how to ask without being awkward about it. Or without it coming off as a massive innuendo.
But hey, his place, yours, doesn’t matter, he's just curious and wants to know what it’s like. He hasn’t been to a lot of sleepovers in his life and especially not with his significant other.
Out of laziness and love for his comfort zone, he’d be slightly more inclined for his house but hey.
Once you’re done properly hanging out and doing your routines, you’re both kinda giggly and awkward when you get in bed—the same one. Totally novel concept.
For a while you’re both lying a little awkwardly side by side like you’re afraid of getting comfortable or even making any kind of contact. Contest of who’s the bravest.
If you don’t make any move he’ll make a very dramatic huff before rolling over on his side facing you and throwing his arm over your middle.
He’s hiding his eyes under his bangs while he’s asking you if you mind because ultimately, he doesn’t wanna make you uncomfortable.
Once you finally get more comfortable in whatever position you like he’ll slowly (and totally smoothly) tug you closer little by little. It feels like he’s waiting to see when you’re gonna scold him, pushing the boundaries a little.
Being a teenage boy and all, he tends to sleep late and sleep in an be particularly cranky when woken up if it’s not a school day (on school days too actually)
He intends on sleeping all 8-10 hours he needs. He’s got a creative brain to fuel.
Cooper once mentioned he used to sleepwalk as a kid to tell you a funny story but was apparently unaware he didn’t fully stop when one time you found him ominously standing in the corner of your room, mumbling something about the door ‘not being placed right’ (which would be fitting since it’s not his room). Better take a picture or grab a camcorder if you want him to believe you in the morning.
His sleepwear is pretty much what you’d expect from him; old band tee, socks and some random loose pants that already have a few holes from being worn down. You also have to remind him to take his jewelry off half the time besides his rings.
As previously mentioned, if it's a weekend morning he’s waking up late no matter what and he’d preferably keep you there to be lazy with him. If it’s a school day or you both have plans early you have to physically pull him out of bed or he’s not moving. He doesn’t even wake up from his own alarm clock.
★··»—›Warren Lipka
He barely thought about it when he invited you to sleep over at his because it didn’t feel like a big deal. You both passed out on his couch a few times before after all.
If anything a bed felt like luxury after so many instances of waking up with sore joints and backs.
You both just kinda plop down in bed and talk while he rolls a joint (and offer to share it if you want)
It keeps going like that or you might put a movie on before you get sleepy.
There is no specific position, whatever position you were in before is the position you’ll sleep in—even if he’s lying perpendicular to you with his head on your stomach and his legs halfway off the bed. It’s fascinating the positions and places he can sleep in.
He supposedly used to sleeptalk especially when he’s dreaming but rarely does anymore since weed decreases REM sleep
His pajamas consist of… taking his pants off. Yeah that’s about it. Whatever top he had on, boxers and socks off. Cannot be bothered. He might sleep fully clothed if his pants aren’t too uncomfortable.
He’s the type of person to wake up ages before he actually gets up and might influence you with that bad habit if you’re not busy. Especially if he can get busy with you in the morning. But mostly he’ll stretch out all his sore limbs and ask how you slept before quickly moving to hunt for the closest edible thing.
★··»—›Julian Dillinger
You’re probably already living together by the time you can comfortably sleep together. He made a point to never stay the night at your place before then so if you did share a bed it would be his.
And the few times where you did sleep over were simply because you were thoroughly exhausted—his fault, really.
But once it becomes more of an established thing, you’ll probably be in bed before him thanks to his very busy job
but he does make a point to come to bed at a decent hour since he absolutely needs a minimum amount of hours of sleep to be efficient—and also to have a little time just the two of you.
he usually doesn’t do anything before bed since usually he is tired by the time he gets there (or if he isn’t, he’ll tire himself out with you) and just drops on the mattress like dead weight
he pretends to be annoyed when you pull the covers over him like you’re tucking him in but he secretly does like it and only then does he move into a proper sleeping position : the soldier
you genuinely make fun of him for it because why does he sleep like that ?
he’ll vehemently defend it despite the fact he looks like he’s ready for the casket
he doesn’t move, like, at all. You’re free to cling to him but he generally will just stay still, maybe unconsciously roll his head to the side to face you. Over time he might make the very generous effort of bracing his arm under your head but he’s not gonna cling to you.
you’re getting some of the best sleep of your life by the way, memory foam mattress and all, ridiculously expensive stuff even in his bedroom just for the sake of putting unnecessary tech everywhere.
because of his back sleeping position he tends to breathe a little loudly, not snoring but nearing that line. He refuses to believe you or listen when you mention his back sleeping could give him sleep apnea.
As for sleepwear, he’s not exactly a fan of sleepwear that looks like, well, sleepwear, as in the classic ensemble of matching button up and pants. Think more like form fitting shirt—long sleeved and thermal in the winter specifically, for bottoms either shorts or longer normal pants but from luxury brands like Ralph Lauren or something with a brand logo on them. Probably all black or in some muted color.
The process of Julian waking up is very… military style. The alarm sound goes off three times, no more no less and he sits up and stretches before getting up to start his day. But not before a very groggy good morning and a lazy kiss to your hand as he debates whether he should try to get you up too. If he does, it’s usually by trying to lure you to the shower or with some good pastries for breakfast.

Enjoy 🥰
Includes Tate, Kit, Kyle, Jimmy, James, and Kai
No warnings I don't think
Tate Langdon
Tate is aggressively touch-starved. Not in an obvious way at first either. He acts casual about physical affection until he actually gets it, then suddenly he’s sticking to you like superglue.
LOVES laying with his head in your lap while you play with his hair. He goes completely quiet during it too. That kind of silence that feels heavy.
Big on sleepy forehead touches. Nose nudges. Absentminded, almost instinctual touching.
He’d pretend to hate cheesy couple stuff but secretly melts if you hold his face gently.
Has a habit of hooking a finger into your belt loop or sleeve when you're laying together, like he's scared you'll suddenly get up and leave.
If he’s upset, he gets clingier instead of more distant. Would absolutely crawl into your bed at 2am without explaining anything and just bury himself against your chest.
Movie cuddles with Tate eventually turn into him laying on top of you or you on top of him. This man has no sense of personal space once he feels safe.
Kisses are either incredibly soft and gentle or devastatingly intense. No in between.
Kit Walker
Kit cuddles like a person who genuinely believes tenderness can keep bad things away for a little while.
Warm. That’s the first thing about him. Physically warm, emotionally warm, space heater warm.
LOVES domestic affection. Hugging you from behind while cooking, kissing your temple in passing, rubbing circles into your shoulders without thinking about it.
Sleeps best when touching you somehow. Hand on your waist, tangled legs, fingers linked. Doesn’t matter, as long as he can feel you.
He’s very attentive to what comforts you. Notices quickly if you like scalp scratches, back rubs, weighted hugs, etc.
Kit after a long day would absolutely pull you into his lap and just exhale into your shoulder like you’re home base. And really, to him, you are.
Gives the kind of hugs where he squeezes tighter halfway through because he wasn’t ready to let go yet.
Quiet morning cuddles with him feel sacred. Pale sunlight, tangled sheets, sleepy voice still rough around the edges.
Kyle Spencer
Kyle’s entire love language is basically him treating you like you're fragile and precious.
Very hesitant at first. He’d worry about being “too much” or doing something wrong.
Once comfortable though? Constant physical contact.
HUGE cuddler. Like genuinely. Arms around your waist, legs tangled with yours, face buried in your neck.
He likes laying his head on your chest so he can hear your heartbeat. It instantly relaxes him.
Physical affection becomes one of the main ways he communicates emotions he struggles to verbalize.
If you touch or kiss his scars without even thinking about it, you will literally see his eyes light up.
Kyle always falls asleep during cuddles first. Usually with his cheek smushed against you and one hand still holding onto you.
He’d love when you initiate affection because it reassures him you actually want him close.
Jimmy Darling
Jimmy is affectionate in a very wholehearted, overflowing way. Like he spent years being denied softness and now refuses to not give it.
Bear hugs. Constantly.
He kisses with his entire soul behind it. Even casual kisses somehow feel earnest.
Obsessed with having you sit in his lap. Doesn’t matter where you are. Chair? Couch? Edge of the bed? Congratulations, you're now sitting on his lap.
Teases you constantly during affection. “You comfy there, sweetheart?” while he’s the one crushing you against his chest.
He absolutely nuzzles into your neck whenever you're laying down together. Like it's automatic for him.
Tired Jimmy is absurdly soft. Running his hands over your back slowly, pressing sleepy kisses to your shoulder, mumbling half-coherent praise.
If you trace patterns on his hands or arms, he goes very still. That kind of tenderness wrecks him a little.
James Patrick March
James treats physical affection like a decadent art form. Every touch is deliberate. Dramatic. A little dangerous around the edges.
HUGE on hand kissing.
Loves draping you across him while you're lounging.
Surprisingly affectionate in private. Publicly he’s composed and theatrical, but alone? Very touch-oriented.
He adores slowly brushing hair away from your face while maintaining eye contact.
He likes possessive little gestures: hand on your neck, fingers around your wrist, pulling your chin toward him during kisses. Never rushed though. Everything with him unfolds like velvet curtains.
Secretly enjoys when you become affectionate first because it feeds his ego. Like to a catastrophic degree.
He’d absolutely call cuddling “indulgent” while actively refusing to let you leave the bed.
Kai Anderson
Kai is… complicated. Affection with him tends to blur together with control issues, emotional dependency, and genuine vulnerability all fighting one another. But underneath all the chaos? He craves closeness. Desperately.
Initially acts like he doesn’t need affection at all. Then proceeds to hover around you 24/7.
Touch-starved.
Late-night vulnerability hits him hardest. That’s when he gets quieter and more honest, pulling you against him while talking in a low sleepy voice.
LOVES having his hair played with. Instant system shutdown.
He’s clingier than he’ll ever admit. If you’re sitting together, expect him to pull your legs over his lap or hook himself around your waist.
The first time you casually kiss his forehead, he short-circuits.
Physical affection becomes incredibly important to him once attached to someone. Reassurance through touch. Constantly checking you’re still there.
Would absolutely deny enjoying cuddles while actively dragging you back into bed for “five more minutes.” Which becomes an hour. Then two. Little dictator of the blanket republic 🛋️
