Apocaric for the ship ask meme
joining the war on yaoi on the side of incomprehensibly cursed yaoi 😭
General:
Rate the Ship - Awful | Ew | No pics pls | I’m not comfortable | Alright | I like it! | Got Pics? | Let’s do it! | Why is this not getting more attention?! | The OTP to rule all other OTPs
How long will they last? - WELL. until apocalypse leaves rictor for his wife as per canon. alternatively, if he hadn't, rictor would leave once 'star came back
How quickly did/will they fall in love? - I don't think they'd truly be "in love" with each other as both their hearts are otherwise engaged. but I think they became infatuated (?) with each other within the span of maybe three weeks, they're both lonely
How was their first kiss? - Awkward, Apocalypse was probably moving to like open a door for him and Rictor misread things and ended up kissing him and then not making eye contact with him for a solid week after.
Wedding: I don't think Apocalypse would be interested in marrying anyone other than Genesis.
Sex:
Who is on top? - No clue, it could be either. but I'm going to say Julio solely due to the fact that I think Apocalypse topping has a high probability of resulting in one VERY uncomfortable visit to Krakoa's ER department
Who is the one to instigate things? - Julio. Apocalypse wouldn't be averse to it but I do think he's more preoccupied with his plans to ever actually attempt to initiate sex for his own benefit
How healthy is their sex life? - Barely touch themselves let alone each other | 2 | 3 | 4 | Once a couple weeks, nothing overboard | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | I feel like it's mostly when Julio's feeling vulnerable that they'd actually have sex (which is...pretty often during Krakoa lol)
How kinky are they? - Straight missionary with the lights off | 2 | 3 | 4 | Might try some butt stuff and toys | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | see, I think they're kinky but not with each other. the most I can see them doing is like maybe some power play where Apocalypse is in control, which only happens twice because Julio gets weird and shaken up about it after.
How long do they normally last? - I figure Apocalypse has inhuman stamina meanwhile Julio has that of a baseline mutant. maybe a bit more from all those years of getting laid regularly with 'Star. so lets say 15 and 4 orgasms respectively.
Do they make sure each person gets an equal amount of orgasms? - Yes; nothing too strenuous, usually just one or two each.
How rough are they in bed? - Softer than a butterfly on the back of a bunny | 2 | 3 | 4 | The bed’s shaking and squeaking every time | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | insert obligatory Richter scale joke here, but yes Julio does make the bed shake. it's rougher than human standards but pretty vanilla by Krakoa era mutant standards.
How much cuddling/snuggling do they do? - No touching after sex | 2 | 3 | 4 | A little spooning at night, or on the couch, but not in public | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | We've all seen those panels where Rictor is latched onto Apocalypse and that one cover where he's got his arm wrapped around Julio lol. Julio definitely initiates the touch, likely subconsciously. there's a lot of manhandling going on for sure.
Children: I don't think they'd have kids together but I do think they'd be plant dads. that being said I DO think it would be massively funny if Julio ended up playing stepdad to the horsemen, namely Pestilence because she killed Julio LMAOOO.
Cooking:
Who does the most cooking? Who is the most picky in their food choice? Who does the grocery shopping? Who is more likely to surprise the other with an anniversary dinner? Who is more likely to suggest going out? the answer to all of these is Julio
Are they more of a meat lover or a salad eater? Apocalypse would definitely like game meat I think. Rictor is like 50/50 between meat and vegetarian food I think; in the sense that before Krakoa it was more like 75/25 in favour of meat, but after his druid powers unlocked, he came to appreciate more plant based cuisine.
Chores: Julio gets the plants to do them.
