sleepy morning cuddles with the ot4 by @splendidlyimperfect​ <3

[gratsustingue-the-ot4]

3 and 9!

3. If they complimented each other, what would they say?

natsu -sting is a sweet ray of sunshine that always brightens my day -gray is always there when i need him and knows how to be there for me in the ways that are important -rogue is really grounding for me - he helps me when i’m out of focus or having a hard time paying attention

gray -sting gives the best hugs and he always knows when i need them -rogue is so nice to spend quiet time with, just relaxing together and doing nothing in particular -natsu helps break me out of bad moods and is always there to encourage me out of my comfort zone 

sting -i love to cuddle natsu, or just give him little hugs and kisses; he always knows how to brighten my day -gray is really smart - honestly scary smart sometimes - and he’s always there for me when i need him -rogue is so kind and loving and gentle; i love watching him with the cats because he loves them so much

rogue -sting is so caring and affectionate, i always feel loved when i’m with him -natsu is a remarkably good dancer for someone who didn’t learn until their thirties, and despite hating dancing, i don’t mind if it’s him -gray is a really sweet, gentle soul, and i love watching him with the cats or with wendy or the other kids

9. Have they made each other cry?

never intentionally, and only in good ways (like being sweet and sappy)

Hi hope your well! 5. What activities do they enjoy together? 6. What is/are their love language(s)? Please thanks🌸

5. What activities do they enjoy together?

-rogue and gray like to have knitting/crocheting dates where they just sit at home without the other two and make scarves. they don’t even talk to each other much when they’re doing it, just listen to music or podcasts and make scarves and stuff. 

-natsu and sting like to go to the farmer’s market (where natsu buys sting all the ridiculous ugly fruits and vegetables). they also spend a lot of time at the beach when they can. 

-sting and gray go to the aquarium often to visit pancake! it’s a good place for both sting’s anxiety and gray’s depression and it’s their special date place. 

-natsu likes watching movies with rogue so he can braid his hair and cuddle. usually natsu had a really hard time sitting still, but playing with rogue’s hair while they watch something helps calm him down. natsu can also get rogue to dance with him sometimes, but only if nobody else is home. 

-gray and natsu visit silver and mika together a lot, and they both enjoy working on natsu’s car or doing outdoor projects with silver. sometimes they just sit around and talk, other times they help mika around the house, but gray always knows how much spending time with ‘mom and dad’ means to natsu.

-sting and rogue like to cook or bake together, but only when natsu isn’t around to complain about not being allowed in the kitchen 😂 they like trying out a lot of indian recipes that natsu grew up with, and mika has taught them to make a few french canadian dishes like tourtière. 

6. What is/are their love language(s)?

-natsu’s is touch - he shows affection with kisses and hugs, as well as other non-sexual touches. he’s frequently touching all of them - hand on the back, holding hands, kisses on the cheek, feet touching under the table. he also loves cuddles. 

-sting’s is giving gifts - he likes to find little knick-knacks or silly broken things and fix them to give to his boyfriends. whenever he sees something that reminds him of one of the others he buys it for them, even when it’s not a special occasion. 

-gray’s is acts of service - doing little things like making everyone lunches or sending texts to each of them during the day. he’ll also do the laundry for them if they’re feeling stressed, or have supper ready if any of them have a long day. 

-rogue’s is also acts of service, in addition to words of affirmation. he frequently tells the others that he appreciates them/is proud of them/loves them and it’s always personalized.

So basically gray and rogue are babysitting the ones that are older than them 😂 okay cool love it 🥰

😂 exactly, age doesn’t necessarily connote maturity (i, as a 32 year old, feel like i can speak to this personally lol). and it’s way funnier for the younger ones to be constantly exasperated by the older ones, lets be honest

I’m gonna tell you a funny thing ... you know whenever i read ot4 fanfics i have a specific character for them like (henry cavill as gray )’ ( nick sagar as natsu), ( zac efron as sting but not all the times sometime he’s chris pine 😭😂) , ( ben barnes as rogue ) . Okay maybe I’m too much 😂💔

those are all fantastic, especially gray as henry cavill ‘cause i just watched the witcher and basically stared at henry’s ass in tight leather for hours. nick sagar is awesome. i always picture natsu as rahul kohli but with only stubble instead of the big beard. and i love zac efron oh my god 😂

the one thing is that rogue isn’t white, he’s indigenous (i know we haven’t gone into that much), and i think we always pictured him as more like adam beach with his sexy, long, flowing hair that everyone loves to play with! 

thanks so much for sending this, i love hearing from people!

You know what would be new ? Natsu panicking in sex and telling them the code color ‘red’ omg I cannot imagine that but it would be a new thing i guess , like in ( shut up and kiss me ) both chapters was a new experience to natsu , and I can’t imagine them getting over the limits of natsu but natsu is stubborn and won’t tell them till he can’t handle it anymore or something like that .. okay i talk too much so that’s it .. i wonder if you can do it or consider it ?

hey there! thanks for the ask :) unfortunately i’m going to have to decline this one - we had one like it previously and I explained the reasons here. hope that makes sense and feel free to send in other requests!
