˙⋆✮ it starts off as competitive banter before anyone realises feelings are involved.
˙⋆✮ joseph insists he’s not jealous, while actively keeps a score of how many times caesar makes you laugh throughout the day.
˙⋆✮ caesar acts composed and gentlemanly around you… until joseph interrupts one too many conversations and suddenly he’s challenging him to races, training matches, and ridiculous dares to try and one-up him.
˙⋆✮ neither of them would confess first because they’re both convinced the other already has your attention. meanwhile, you’re obsessing over both of them and struggle daily on which one to choose.
˙⋆✮ joseph flirts with you through teasing, cockily saying “you know, if you wanted to spend more time with me, you could’ve just said so.”, when you ask him to practice training with you once.
˙⋆✮ caesar flirts like he’s in a black-and-white romance film, always complimenting you and asking you on dates. the contrast was good, but it only made you doubt more.
˙⋆✮ training only became more and more unbearable since joseph tried to show off, and caesar was naturally impressive. you were constantly trapped between the both of their arguments that just never seemed to end.
˙⋆✮ lisa lisa notices immediately and absolutely refuses to intervene, only rarely sending you a look of sympathy.
˙⋆✮ joseph becomes unexpectedly attentive when you’re tired or injured. he acts casual, but always remembers details.
˙⋆✮ caesar becomes softer around you than anyone else notices. he adjusts your gloves, fixes your posture, quietly checks if you’ve eaten.
˙⋆✮ if you compliment one without the other then joseph would celebrate, caesar pretends not to care, yet both of them think about it all day. all whilst they secretly worry you’ll choose the other.
˙⋆✮ the turning point is usually when one of them stops treating it like a competition and actually asks, “what do you want?”

the training courtyard was too warm. not because of the weather, but because somehow, against all odds, you had ended up between joseph and caesar for the third sparring session in a row.
“you’re holding your shoulders too stiff,” caesar mumbles, stepping behind you and adjusting your stance.
joseph immediately scoffed at his action, straight to defend you as always. “oh, come on. she was doing fine.”
caesar raised an eyebrow at him, matching his unimpressed facial expression. “your standards are low.”
“my standards are realistic.” joseph instantly retaliates, the pair of them now stood with their arms crossed at eachother.
you sighed for the fourteenth time that night, “you know i can hear both of you?”
they ignored you, as usual.
joseph stepped closer, his hands now falling into his pockets before he turned to you. “alright, new idea. train with just me instead.”
caesar of course would not be having that until he dies. “and learn bad habits?”
joseph’s scoff sent you over the final edge, finally turning to face them.
“you both realise this stopped being about training like… a week ago?” you spat, but only received silence.
for once, joseph looked away first, followed shortly by caesar suddenly finding the sky fascinating.
“don’t look at me like that.” jojo finally blurted out first, his skin itching from the tension.
“you’re jealous.” you cocked an eyebrow at him, amusement laced through your tone, causing his eyes to widen.
“i am not jealous.” he instantly retorts. caesar, clearly picking up on his eagerness, made a thoughtful noise.
“that was fast.” was all he had to say for joseph to round onto him.
“YOU don’t get to say anything.” he blurts, and caesar blinked once. then smiled.. too calmly.
“why? because she talks to me?”
joseph opened his mouth to retort, but closed it. you just stared. neither of them denied it?
and somehow.. that was worse. you couldn’t help the small laugh that came from your mouth, and not because it was funny, but because this was ridiculous.
“you two act like i’m some trophy.” you shook your head at them, causing both of them to immediately answer at the same time.
“i don’t.”
“i wouldn’t.”
then looked annoyed they’d spoken together.
“then stop competing! i feel like a cow at auction.”
caesar’s expression shifted softer first, then joseph’s followed. the courtyard slipped into silence as joseph rubbed the back of his neck as he shot caesar a glare, in which he completely ignored him.
“you’re easy to want around.” caesar continued quietly.. which joseph whispered an agreement to.
your face instantly grew warm, which was unfair, because now neither of them were being annoying.
“…then maybe stop trying to beat each other and actually ask me out.” you smiled softly, finally accepting their peace.
joseph recovered first, of course, his grin returned instantly. “oh. oh! i can do that.”
caesar exhaled through his nose, then offered his hand out to yours. “would you join me for dinner?”
“n-no- that’s not what i meant-“ you attempted to protest, but joseph immediately shoved his own hand in to the mixture of yours and caesars.
“no no, that’s boring. come with me instead.” you looked at both of their much larger hands entangled in yours, before a great idea came across your mind.
“depends who complains less.” you said, rather proud of yourself at the peaceful quiet. yet somehow, the competition started all over again.
TW: brief mentions of violence/harm (it’s Hannibal I had to)
🫀 He adores pet names! Darling, love, little lamb, little one, anything to encourage his tiny love further into babyspace. He feels incredibly honoured if you give him a nickname, and eventually he will only answer you if you address him as such.
🐑 He is firm but fair. He expects you to follow the rules he sets; they are there for your protection after all, and he will not tolerate rudeness or disrespect. As long as you are polite, and rarely test his patience, you will be dear to his heart forever.
🫀 Hannibal is very protective of his darling. You will never stray too far, he’ll make sure of that. He’s always there to guide you and protect you, even if you don’t fully know what he’s capable of. God forbid someone is rude or unkind to his little lamb, he will stop at nothing to protect you (…and conveniently serves your favourite food for dinner that night).
🐑 He finds the most comfort in the little things. Hannibal can be very hands-on when he cares to be. Whether it’s cutting your food into bite-sized pieces or doing up the buttons on your jacket; he will always offer a helping hand. He may even engineer situations for you where you have no choice but to run to him for help, and he’ll do so gladly.
🫀 Both yours and Hannibal’s favourite activity together is cooking. He sits you down on the counter or stool while he cooks, answering all of your curious questions with a pleased smile. Occasionally, he lets you be his little assistant, teaching you all about different foods and cultures, allowing you to help him with small tasks. You’re his little taste tester, trying all manner of soups and sauces that he spoon feeds you. He wants everything to be perfect for you, of course.
🐑 He wants to know every single detail there is to know about you. Your favourite foods, so he can surprise you with them. Your favourite toys, so he can spoil you rotten. Your favourite animal, so he can treat you to a soft plush after a particularly difficult day. Not just the sweet little facts either, he wants to know everything and he’s not above poking and prodding to find out exactly what he wants. Don’t concern yourself with that though, he’s only doing what’s best for you. How is he supposed to know how to look after you if you won’t talk to him?
🎀- Quite the taboo, but he wouldn’t openly admit his feelings towards you. He would show it in ways like sharing snacks, or teasing.
🎀- He wouldn’t definitely resort to acts of service as his love language and will subtly complete favors of yours.
🎀- He would also be the type to remember nearly everything about you. He would know what foods you can’t eat, what you are afraid of, the things you love the most, etc.
🎀- Wouldn’t keep you from socializing with others, but would caution you of shady players.
🎀- Also, he will be eyeing you, and taking in every little interaction you have with others, and making sure you don’t get too close with anybody untrustworthy.
🎀- Would make you figure out his plans rather than flat out saying it. Although if he needed you to assist, he wouldn’t be against laying out the idea.
🎀- Lots of teasing and testing your abilities.
🎀- Would fall for your brain before you yourself. He’s practical. If he sees a thought process that can benefit him, he will take it without hesitation.
🎀- Definitely shares his medical knowledge with you, and might bandage you up or something if he sees you hurt.
🎀- In addition, would say it’s just to execute the play better, not because he cared or anything. (Totally)
🎀- Although he would never admit it, he would protect you if the time came. Like he did with Usagi.
🎀- If you are good with socializing and dictating social settings, he would definitely use that to his favor.
🎀- NEVER coddles.
🎀- He would enjoy someone around who can understand and talk to Kuina about stuff, because he wouldn’t understand half of her rants.
🎀- Tbh he would use you at first 😭 but he would genuinely start to care later on.
🎀- Isn’t HUGE on physical affection or touch, but wouldn’t mind it if it’s from you.
akira’s masochistic options/responses in the game (like the one where he tells takemi to “punish him more”) are actually more than just a funny joke/quirk and he actually shows multiple signs of experiencing masochism throughout the game and in this essay i will—
Scallics - UT Sans
eh. ...maybe. maybe if there was a reason, like ur a nail tech or want to be one or smth and wanna practice. or something. its like a 50/50, but if u wanna do it enough it'll only take a little convincing. show him a few photos, and give a little explanation as to what you're doing and hes game. do them while you two are lounging and watching tv, he'll appreciate being able to zone out as you work. will give you compliments on how they turn out. a lil kiss on ur head and a 'looks good, babe'. would also ask you to do those... over the top hand model photoshoots so he can 'brag to alph' about this'
Vallian - UT Paps
oh! sure! he guesses!! just know, they'll be hidden beneath his gloves, and will probably get washed off soon because he is a very clean skeleton!! but, go ahead! he doesnt mind! doing his nails at the kitchen table as you two talk about your days and relax, he'll complement your techniques and tell you the designs are cool!! dare he say, he can feel it in his bones, nyeheh!!
Chase - US Sans
ABSOLUTELY!!! oh, ahem. sorry, he means sure. i-if you want. ...fuck lets be honest, he'll be asking to paint YOUR nails! dont expect big designs or anything, but as long as he's spending time with you he doesnt care. if he likes ur designs enough, he'd swap out his usual blue gloves for his cool fingerless leather ones. >:3
Ricket - US Paps
yeah, sure. ..no hes not being sarcastic? hes down! honestly, go ahead. he doesn't mind what colour, knock yourself out. as long as you dont make him look like he dipped his distal phalanges into a bucket of paint, he doesn't care. and you'll know he appreciates them, cause they stay on his nails for a while!! before he has to wash them off cause 'cleanliness' or smth... i also think it would be really cute to see him tinkering with one of his electronics while also wearing the designs on his nails :3. like sans, would also probably get those exaggerated model poses to show them off, something about his 'facecard never declines' and hed 'do anything for the gram, dude'
Valko - UF Sans
no. ...maybe? .....ok so hes weird about it!! sue him!! if you really want to paint his nails so badly, then fine! fuck, go ahead. he doesnt care. just- just know hes not gonna give you no special treatment! hes gonna keep his gloves on, and yer gonna have to be ok with that. ...you want him to pick a design? uh. anything. he doesnt care. not like anyones gonna see it anyways. ....but actually can he have skulls? oh, wait. those designs look cool... shit, flames? now you're talking his language!! ...ok, maybe MAYBE he'll let you do this again.... eventually. not any time soon... (he sends you nail ideas every so often now, and practices on his own- except no he doesnt. You didnt hear that.)
Grimm - UF Paps
oh. well, alright. actually he had been thinking about this very recently. and- they show you the ideas they've had about nail inspo recently, and you two converse over designs!! its.. a toss up on if he does wear them out, it really depends on what they have lined up during the week but, the answer will usually be yes!! just... no over the top alterations of the shape? unless he asks for it of course. will probably ask you to do his nails the next time they dress femininely :3
Varek - SF Sans
nope. resounding no. especially if you're only friends. ...ok maybe he'll have a little leniency for his partner, but one colour!! one colour, no shapes, no nothing. his answer for colour will always be black. though, maybe if you twist his arm a little (cause he has no backbone for his precious partner), you can get a bit of a design. maybe a few more colours. but theres no way you're getting him to show them off. they're staying under his gloves, and will get washed off before any events. (he'll playfully critique your technique also)
Rigel - SF Paps
oh! uhm.. sure! ...what did you.. uh.. have in mind? would want to hear all of your ideas, would be super sweet about designs he does and doesnt like. would actually suggest other things to do! and-- Rigel, how do you know so much nail tech terminology? he doom scrolls alot, and comes across videos so he knows the general gist of the process. he actually paints his own nails too, black, usually. ...his hands arent steady enough to do anything else... always showing your designs, and WILL tell people you did them for him, hes so proud to be ur second half!! :3
Grisly - HT Sans
oh. ....ok.... if you want..... ...he'll probably... wash them off.. eventually... though. he listens to your ideas, and genuinely doesnt have a preference for how they come out. as long as you had fun doing them. probably forgets that they're painted every so often, and when he looks at them he gives the smallest lil smile :3. Ideally, he will wear them till they chip off, but if they piss him off (sensory, or keep chipping off into his pottery) im sorry, but he's taking them off immediately. would probably seek you out to ask the easiest way to take them off if hes having trouble also.
Spindle - HT Paps
yes! absolutely!! oh, she had been waiting for someone to ask to do them!! or, actually, he probably asked you to paint them. she has a bunch of ideas! but if you want to start small, thats so ok too!! open to compromising, and at the end of it only really cares as long as you had fun doing them!! oh, and let her make you some tea while you're at it. and, ah! yes, a nice book to read while you wait for them to dry!! ends up being a cute evening in reading and crafting :3 Grimm might come to join you both too!!
