Rules: On a scale of 1-10 (1 being likely to stab, 10 being a marshmallow incarnate) how pleasant is it to cuddle with your oc?
Izjik - 7/10: She's got a strongman build, so while she is muscular, there's a good amount of pudge there to use as a pillow. Points get deducted because A) she'd start fidgeting in about two minutes and B) I feel like she just has a very high body temp, so you'd get hot.
Sepo - 5/10: Assuming you're Izjik, Twenari, or sometimes Djek, Sepo is so damn tall that he always ends up as the big spoon. He's all knees and elbows and long hair that gets everywhere, and I feel like his hands and feet are freezing. That said, he gets points because it's such a rare accomplishment to share a nap with him, that you always feel proud when you manage it. That said, anyone other than his friends is getting a knife for their trouble if they tried it.
Twenari - 6/10: She's probably working on spellcraft while curled up on you. She's there, she's not fidgeting or uncomfortable, but you have to accept that she's brushing eraser shavings into your hair.
Djek - 8/10: That man is latched on like a damn sea star. He's like a human weighted blanket. He'll probably fall asleep immediately if he's comfortable around you, which might result in sleepwalking, but otherwise, he's perfect.
Astra - 9/10: Now here's a woman who knows how to make herself comfy. She has a softer figure, so she makes a great pillow, and she'll probably braid your hair to keep her hands busy. You just can't get the nagging worry out of your head that there's a vial of acid hidden somewhere in her bra.
Mashal - 3/10: He's trying. He really is. But heart can only get you so far when you're made of metal and weigh close to a ton. Astra honestly enjoys cuddling with him as she likes the cold metal and grew up sleeping on a dirt floor, but I'd say she's in the minority on that opinion.
Ivander - 1/10: He's in pain. There's blood all over your clothes. Bad time for everyone involved, no matter how touch starved he is.
Elsind - 10/10: A literal shapeshifter who can turn into the perfect cuddle buddy. I think she'd be overjoyed to take a nap with someone. When he sleeps, he reverts to a liquid sort of form, which would feel like getting a hug from a waterballoon. A little eldritch, but so comfortable.
Avymere - 2/10: I think they'd manage to draw up a timetable for percentages of time spent as big vs little spoon. They'd treat it as a formal event and lay there stiff as a bored. The only moment of comfort would be when they fall asleep, where they tend to hug whatever's close to them.
This was a lot of fun! I'll tag @mk-writes-stuff @kaylinalexanderbooks @elsie-writes @halfbit @leahnardo-da-veggie and anyone else who wants to play!
Thank you @somealienquill and @charles-joseph-writes for tagging me!
Sycamore: 10/10 will huggle. All humans look like tiny, adorable, featherless babies in her eyes. Don’t let her catch you or she will cuddle you! You might be able to outrun her if you’re clever, but there’s no escaping the affectionate clutch of her arms/wings.
Prince Alastair: 7/10. He can come off as distant and averse to physical contact, but that isn’t true. Deep down he just needs to be hugged (especially by his phoenix best friend).
Rules: For each of your OCs, rate how cuddleable they are on a scale of 1-10.

*cracks knuckles* This might take a moment...I think I’ll stick with first generation.
Fynta Wolfe (Republic Trooper): *Artwork by dingoat
Fynta gets a solid 8, now: Cuddling is new to Fynta. She’s always been up for sex, but letting someone touch her body while sleeping or relaxing has always been an absolute no-go. However, once a certain, surly Cathar entered her life, all of Fynta’s preconceived notions of romance were turned on their head. Now, she loves nothing more than to lay in Jorgan’s arms and feel his fingers playing in her hair.
Kadu Jadon (Jedi Consular): *Artwork by dingoat
Kadu get a well-earned 10. This fluffy surfer Jedi dude was cuddling his now wife long before either of them admitted their feelings, simply because it made her feel better. As the former Barsen’thor, his inclination has always been towards peace. After stepping down from the council and following his heart into the healing arts, the ability to touch others in a soothing manner often helped his patients heal faster. That was played to his benefit all the more after receiving Jurr as his ward. It didn’t take long for the normally suspicious soldier to find that her favorite way to relax was nestled between his arms and legs with her back against his chest. Often times, they wouldn’t even speak while she drew and he read. Eventually (after a looooong time of pining) it turned into a romance, and the cuddling only became more intimate.
Ma’at Stasma (Sith Inquisitor): *artwork by the-sith-in-the-sky-with-diamond
Ma’at is giddy at a 9. Ma’at was convinced from an early age that the most she could hope for was a husband who wouldn’t try to kill her. As the daughter of a prominent Sith family (I took liberties with the slave theme and made it more about duty and responsibility than the literal interpretation of the word) She was promised to Tuathal (The Emperor’s Wrath) through an agreement between their parents. Once they met, they fell madly in love, and she finally let her guard drop. While Tuathal is her beloved and respected husband, not to mention father of four of her children, including their heir, her love expanded to others down the road. Talos kept Ma’at from growing lonely while part from her husband, and fathered her second oldest son. Later, Lana stole another piece of Ma’at’s heart through her calm logic and clever wit. Once her trust is earned, Ma’at is loyal to a fault and willing to share everything.
Zolah Holran (Imperial Agent):
Zolah gets a 3. As a spy, cuddling was always a hazard, or a tool. While she trusts Vector and Theron implicitly, years of light sleeping has made it difficult to relax while another person touches her. This doesn’t mean that she won’t wrap her arms and legs around either man in her sleep, but Theron equates that more to a military move than proper cuddling.
Notiac Carlo (Jedi Consular):
This one took a while, but Notiac finally worked herself up to a 5. Strict adherence to the Jedi Code made this connection with Lana difficult, but luckily, Sith are a stubborn lot. After months of Lana’s gentle encouragement and quiet advances, Notiac finally let down her guard enough to accept a Sith’s affection. She is still uncomfortable with public displays of affection, though has graduated to not flinching when Lana’s hand brushes hers while they work. In private, she loves nothing more than to settle on a sofa with a glass of wine and watch a holovid with her lover’s arm entwined with hers.
Cinlat & Verin Ejnar (Bounty Hunters):
Cinlat gets a 2, while Verin would love a higher number. Let’s go with a 7. Cinlat’s no nonsense personality, combined with an early life as a pit fighter on Hutta, made for a code disposition that didn’t lend towards an easy relationship. Verin still fell stupidly in love with his badass boss (he totally has a thing for older women, too). While he’d had loved to have spent hours in her arms, he respected that Cinlat wasn’t fond of being touched. She showed her love with playful barbs, and shooting anyone who looked at him wrong.
Hira’niafan (Smuggler):
Despite her cantankerous disposition, Hirani is a cuddlebug. She gets a 6, simply for being a bitch. Koth doesn’t mind her sharp tongue, most of the time. These two can go from sweet kisses, to shouting, in a matter of seconds. No matter the grievance, they work well as a team, always come back to each other, and usually resume where they left off. Hirani likes to prop her feet across Koth’s lap while they relax and let his fingers massage her lekku.
Kaeto Vaa & Kozen (Jedi Knight/Sith Warrior):
These two get a combined 3. Physical contact is less of the thing than mental contact. Kaeto and Kozen literally live inside one another’s head. They accidentally created a Force bond that can’t be severed while both live, and it has led to a strange sort of love between them. While both sexual creatures, the intimacy comes from their combined meditations where they open their minds to one another.
Balic Cormac (Republic Trooper):
Cormac gets a 10. There is no way this giant puppy could get anything other than the highest score. Whether it’s spooning with his wife, Elara, chilling with his best friend, Fynta, or watching cartoons with his son, Tayl, physical touch is important. Even Jorgan has given up fighting Cormac’s “bro-hugs”. Oormac needs everyone around him to know that they are loved and appreciated, and he’s not ashamed to be the one who tells them.
Sadio Edan (Smuggler):
I’m going to rank Sadio as a 7. She’s not afraid of physical affection, but she’s cautious with whom she shares it. Torian was the exception to that rule, and managed to worm inside her defenses a lot faster than she expected. Given their respective jobs keep them apart, these two make the best of everything during the stolen days in between missions.
Solish Rasik (Sith Inquisitor):
Solish gets a 4 simply because her cuddling usually involves claws. Luckily, she found the right kind of masochist in Andronikos. She isn’t likely to crawl into his lap and go to sleep, but after sex, Solish is as pliable as a kitten. Andronikos has all the scars to prove it, and thinks it’s adorable that she kneads him while falling asleep. He’d never admit that out loud, of course.
Nahir Par-Jorgan (Republic Trooper):
Being raised in a Cathar family, Nahir gets a 9. Physical touch and grooming are a large part of her relationship with Aric and their triplets. Cheek rubbing, scalp scratching, and all other manner of touch are important ways of showing affection. Nahir sleeps best when she’s completely wrapped in her lifemate’s arms.
Mama Wanda (Bounty Hunter):
Being past her prime can’t keep Wanda from enjoying life’s little pleasures. She gets a 7. Until Bey’way Aygo, Wanda hadn’t found another male who could hold a candle to her departed husband. This scruffy, sharp-witted Bothan Admiral stole her heart with a sheepish grin and a bottle of whiskey. Even with her adoration of the male, all cuddling ceases at bedtime and her joints demand a pillow between her knees to soothe aching hips, and another at her back to keep from rolling over and aggravating an old injury. With his own career in the military, Bey’wan has his own bedtime routine. While awake, though, these two are not afraid to hold hands and kiss cheeks in front of the young guns.
Let’a Payach (Buff Avacado):
I’m still learning this one, but I think Let’a probably gets a 6. She adores her giant lug of a husband, and has no problem cuddling up to him for a late night holovid. If they’ve been working out and he stinks, all bets are off until after the shower. Likewise, if she’s hot or uncomfortable at all, she doesn’t want to be touched and might lash out if Ripn doesn’t take the hint.
Verin & Keshal (Mandalorians):
Verin finally gets his 7 through his second marriage to Keshal, who earns an 8. After losing Cinlat on Yavin 4, Verin vowed to never let his woman out of his sight without her knowing just how much he cherished her. When they first met, Keshal and Verin were constantly at each other’s throats. After their married, Verin was thrilled to discover that his new wife loved massages, head rubs, and foot rubs. Keshal was likewise excited to find a man who was willing to give her those things as her previous husband had a thing against touching feet. That became even more important when she became pregnant with their first child. While too old for fatherly hugs, Verin finds other way to show his adopted son affection, and Tranx can’t escape Keshal’s rib cracking embraces no matter how far he runs.
The guidelines: for each (personally I’m doing,,, only some of my trans guys) of your OCs, rate how cuddleable they are on a scale of 1-10. Descriptions/elaborations are totally rad, but you do you, fam. Tag some people you like after!

I tag: @dreadwvlfscript, @somedeadmagic, @caz-writes, @erinoddly, and @flightglyph
Cillian O’Doherty: 8/10 — good to cuddle! He’s the type to want his hair played with while just watching dandelion seed float through the air on a sunny day. Also completely the type to blanket burrito up in the winter with someone he enjoys the company of!
Kiel O’Doherty: 3/10 — on the other hand, Kiel is nothing like his brother when it comes to being soft and cuddleable. The boy is purposefully prickly so people don’t even try to suggest cuddling him. I think it’s because of the influence of the Trépagniers — that’s exactly what Hyacinth had said too haha “they’re refashion [Kiel] out of obsidian” — they really aren’t a cuddly bunch.
Levi Mclaughlin: 10/10 — Levi is so good at cuddling! Him and Eydie cuddle a lot (completely platonically) and it’s something that’s become a source of comfort for him. However, he’s pretty selective on who he’ll cuddle? Like, he’s really gotta have that good base of trust going for him and the other person, yeah?
Bryce Callahan: 5.5/10 — Bryce desperately wants to cuddle and be loved, but unfortunately the sweetie laid his affections with the biggest douchebag of a man (Ren) and doesn’t get really any of the cuddles he wants. When he does get to cuddle, he’s the type to trace designs in the skin of his cuddle partner, and to play with their hair!
Elliot: 1/10 — do not cuddle Elliot. He can’t stand being shoehorned into a ‘little spoon’ role, and most of the other people in the camp do it automatically simply because he’s a little under 5’1. He’d also spout off about how it was past the end of times and there’s “literally no reason to [cuddle]” even though he does like the camaraderie feelings it gives him.

june: 5/10 She’d like to enjoy cuddling, and she’d like to feel like she’s “good” at it, but honestly she’s a little awkward - even with someone she’s comfortable with. She’s more likely to be the one that just lays there and lets the other person cuddle her. That’s fine. She’s usually cold, so that’s one thing she at least appreciates about cuddling!
theo: 6/10 Not bad. First off, he’s never cuddled before - secondly, he’s not... an active cuddler. But at least he’s open to it! He’d get better with practice, and at least in the mean time, he works well as a pillow. Put him where you want, stroke his hair, and he’ll probably pass right out.
sagittarius: 228494/10 Physical affection comes naturally. He’ll rub that spot you like. Tangle his fingers in your hair (unless you don’t want it to be messed up). Rub your back. Plant kisses on your forehead and nose. He knows what’s up.
