HC about how Arthur and joker would like to receive and express affection!
Arthur:
- He is in constant doubt and fear of not being good enough, of being a failure.
- When you talk to him he already feels amazed. Because you talk to him like he is a normal human being.
- When you accept his oddities, his morbid humour, his forced laughs and cries – that’s when he knows you have accepted him.
- He still fears you will leave him one day, that he’s not good enough.
- You telling him how perfect he is gives him a feeling he can be proud.
- You whispering how perfect he is sends shivers of pleasure down his spine.
- He takes delight in it when you hold his hand. Even more so when you are the one who initiates the touch.
- He can’t wrap his head around it when you are the one who crawls all over him, begging him to take you. Because how could anyone want him that way? His cheeks bloom a bright red, all other blood pumped elsewhere, and he stops to think. He can’t think when the two of you are intimate, and that’s why he loves those moments the most. No one makes him feel as good as you do. So he tries his best to work to such moments.
- He tries to dress up sexily, but it’s just his usual wear only his hair is messy and his vest is unbuttoned.
- He deliberately stands too close to you whenever he wants to get you in the mood.
- You discover he is all for cuddling, so you wrap your arms around him as often as possible and hold him close. Once he musters the courage to be the one to hold you, he does so at any given opportunity, even in public settings when it’s a little strange. But you don’t care. You know he needs this.
- He loves running his fingers past your skin, preferably when its exposed, just to feel you are real and to let you know he’s there.
- He orders food he knows you enjoy wherever you go, so you can have his portion.
- He tries to cut down on the smoking, because he has your health to worry about now.
- He gives you little gifts, most of it cheap or crafted himself, but he poured his heart into making them.
- When he gets a little more confidence, he starts doing little striptease dances in the bedroom whenever you two decide to get it on. His little dances are so absurd they never fail to make you laugh.
- You don’t tell this to anyone, but you two talk and laugh during ‘the deed’. No one can make you laugh as much as he does. He loves to cuddle you close and make lame jokes. You both still come anyway. And it’s heavenly.
Joker:
- He is confident, bratty and very open about what he feels and what he needs.
- He has no issues in touching you. In fact, he does so all the time.
- In public, his grip on you is a little tighter.
- He still enjoys it when you tell him how good he is, how perfect for you.
- He’s still instantly up for the job when you are the one to initiate intimacy between you.
- He still performs those same odd dances when he strips, only he sings different songs with it now. And when he’s on top of you, he’s usually rougher than Arthur was. Though Arthur could put in some force as well (in his thrusts).
- He showers you with standard gifts such as flowers and chocolate and sweet cards he wrote obscene texts on. It’s his way of showing he’s finally good enough for you and that he always gets what he wants.
- His manner of receiving affection in turn is for you to agree and go along with whatever absurd fantasy he has in mind.
- He buys you fancy lingerie and one of the ways to show him affection is to wear it.
- He’s still starving for your touch.
- In public, he makes sure everyone knows you belong to him. His grip on you is a little tighter and there’s a dangerous gleam in his eyes.
- He shows his way of affection by swearing through gritted teeth that he will kill that bastard who looked at you, and he will even give you a detailed account of how he’ll do it.
- He’ll show his affection by trying to keep you out of harm’s way.
- He’ll show his affection by keeping you safe and being locked up in jail alone.
