Omg I just found your blog and I'm in LOVE with your writing! I read your 'post tumble in the hay' headcanons, could I get a pre version with the exu crew? Who would be nervous, excited, shy etc? Thankyou!
Thank you! I hope this one turned out to your liking! 😘
Dorian gets awkward the moment he realises someone is actually flirting with him. It just sends shivers down his spine. That’s no different with you. He might say something flirty as a joke and when you quip back in an equally flirty manner he’ll be like a doe in the firelight.
If others notice and call him out he’ll tell them to shut up. He might find it within himself to make another comment to you, and if you return it slowly the awkward will fade and the smooth wordsmith will come alive. That’s enough to get the others to back off.
It’s a game to see who can push who over the edge first before either one of you intends to make good on promises made. Usually the others would have already left you to your own devices but if not, Dorian will be all awkward until you’re out of their sight. Once you no longer have an audience, he’s definitely not opposed to making you pay for your teasing.
Orym’s got major parent energy. That means kisses shared when ‘the kids’ aren’t looking, words spoken when others can’t hear that leave you flustered, and plenty more, the halfling has turned into a fine art. He’s not shy about it, in fact he takes pride in it. Rarely can you get him flustered like he does you when in company.
It’s in the small gestures it becomes clear Orym implies the wish for something more private. He’ll put his hand on your thigh, massaging soft circles into the flesh, just a little higher up than usual, sticking closer to your side whenever you’re on the move, ignore, brush aside or pass up on any tasks he or you are asked to do to give you both the free time.
When all is well and dealt with and no impending disasters loom above, outright obvious terms of endearment will be spoken, wandering hands and intimate kisses no longer need to be restrained for the sake of appearing like responsible adults. Instead you can fully indulge in what others might describe as the practices of horny lovesick young adults.
Fearne misses a lot of social cues due to cultural differences. Among those are the ones expressing a desire for intimacy. It’s not necessarily boundary crossing or truly inappropriate, just different and less restricted than the majority of the customs of Exandria. Most of the times it’s just cute but sometimes you’ll have to rein her in when she gets carried away.
Be prepared for nuzzles and little nips at your neck and shoulders, arms wrapping around you pulling you into her lap. Fearne loves the little noises she can get you to make and the others will most definitely describe you as ‘that couple’ when you’re at it again. When those comments are vocalised and you tell her this might be a little too much, she’ll stop.
Though when you ask her to stop, hear ears will lay flat against her head and she’ll give you the most irresistible puppy-dog eyes. How could you say no to those? Besides it’s not like you’re not in the mood after the marks of her earlier ministrations making it none too obvious you fully consent. She’ll be giddy and mischievous upon your verbal agreement some alone time might be in order.
Dariax has a certain bravado to upkeep. He’ll be all suave and a true charmer until it actually comes down to feelings. He doesn’t necessarily get awkward but might miss some cues at times. You’ll be sure to make it very obvious what your intend is and when he catches on, when in public that bravado is an act he feels the need to keep going.
Despite what he may pretend to be the dwarf doesn’t have as much experience to show for it. Sure he’s had his flings but this is different. He’ll let you take the lead and it’s very much a; push and push back dynamic. He doesn’t want to compromise his act and will totally pretend he’s just letting you play with him.
This dwarf has a heart of gold and it really shows. Once you break away from the watching eyes of the others he’ll check in with you, making sure you’re alright and if he didn’t push too far. Caresses and kisses will be very gentle. To him, you are like a treasure meant to be cherished.
Opal is a rather intimidating and physical individual. Regardless of the opportunity or mood she will not hesitate to have some kind of physical contact with you be that to simply have an arm draped over your shoulders or waist, holding hands, sit in your lap or you in hers. She loves brushing her fingers lightly along your skin.
Though, when Opal gets needy she retreats into her shell a bit more. Despite presenting herself as a confident badass she’s got many insecurities and a lot of them have to do with more intimate attachments and dependancies. She knows she can be a lot and she just wants to avoid being too much.
You’re one of the few people who can break through that shell and pull her back out. It may take some gentle teasing, endearing comments but eventually she’ll get there after positive reassurance you love her as is. With that confidence, despite the company she’ll up and pull you along. If anyone asks where you’re off too she will shout exactly what she’s planning. No filter.
