All the detailed RO hair descriptions got me wondering about an ask I also did for another IF (i am not beating the hair fetish allegations XD)
How would the ROs feel about an MC that really loves their hair and gives them special attention? (Running hands through/stroking their hair, complimenting them on it, brushing locks out of their faces, offering to wash and style their hair, smelling their shampoo, kissing the top of their head etc)
LOL big up to people who know what they’re about, we love that energy in this house.
I love this question, thank you so much!! All of the ROs would definitely react to this in a particular way.
The most obvious fan of it would be D, it would be like imagining a big, affectionate feline just enjoying every single moment of you playing with their hair (and mind you, they work hard to take care of their mane too). They would absolutely adore it if you helped them with hair care, peak love language tbh.
On the other end is J — who often runs their hand through their hair (male!J) or plays with their braid (fem!J) when stressed or deep in working on their astrological delineations. If you choose to specifically show your affection through playing with their hair in any way, it would probably calm them down and they begin to be conditioned to take this as a gesture of profound affection.
N would probably be ambivalent at first but if you like that feature about them, then they would be most glad to indulge you. Kisses would always be appreciated, though, and if they see that you enjoy playing with their hair, they may begin to ask for your help in styling their hair every morning. It becomes something to bond over more deeply.
Meanwhile, S has hair as unruly as their personality, and they are probably the most sensitive about it. You know, curly hair woes. Still, if you like to play with it, then they may take advantage and get you to help wash and style their hair. They say that it’s more efficient that way, plus “you like it anyway, so it’s not free labour” but Protectors help them from ever admitting how much they love submitting to your touch.
