Does royal jesters au Gaia ever fear for Eclipse's safety? She's a mom, so I'm sure she worries at least a little, but is she pretty confident in his abilities or does she spend some nights worrying?

Mmm. He might be delayed. Guess we'll have to see.

Also, I know there's much more popular dynamics, but one of my favorite duos to think about is Fury and Steve's. Steve wildly disagrees with the amount of secrecy Fury keeps (when it comes to very important things that involve the wellbeing of others of course) but ultimately respects him and obeys his orders (when he deems them acceptable). And Fury adores Steve, respects him, trusts him even (which is fucking wild), but lowkey sees Steve as naive and someone to keep on his side...but also someone to not be open with.

Their relationship from their first meeting in CATFA, where Fury calms Steve down by being his first official introduction to present time, to the Avengers where Fury walks in on Steve breaking a sandbag via rage/grief-fueled PTSD punches and tells Steve about a mission and Steve agrees to it.

To CATWS where they butt-heads on morality and that being the catalyst for Fury trusting him when he has NO ONE else to trust because he knows Steve so well. But let's be clear - Fury doesn't only know Steve so well because he's a spy or because he's that observant - he knows Steve so well because Steve bares his truest self at all times and doesn't attempt to hide away what he stands for. He never has, and never will. And while Fury may think that's a foolish thing to do, it's what makes Steve the person he trusts to save the world. This is also out of all the Avengers by the way.

I don't know what exactly I mean to say by all this, but I love them and I would have loved to see them explored more.

need more biker/mechanic AC Cloud in my life. I think he'd need a lot of time alone to process in general and also to recover from interacting with so many people through his delivery job, and the best way to do that would be to keep his hands busy with familiar, repetitive motions. it'd be grounding for him to crouch on the hard floor of his garage and get his knees dusty and his hands oily from doing maintenance on Fenrir.

sometimes he'd have the radio on and whenever they're playing some particularly angry love song, he'd bob his head and mouth along to the lyrics while thinking about Sephiroth, all the while pretending he's not doing either of those things.
