4 and 15 for Sal! - @honeybearhive
4. Did you know your s/o long before you two became a couple, or was the relationship established relatively quickly after you both met?
“Nick and I have been friends since I moved to Nockfell and started high school. She was already friends with Larry, Todd, Chug, and Maple so we saw a lot of each other, and she was really cool and fun to be around. We got close really fast.
“It took about a year after we graduated for us to actually start dating, but I’d liked her for... waaaaaaaay longer. Larry kept threatening to go ask her out for me if I didn’t do it myself but I could never get up the courage. Nicky has more self-confidence than I do but apparently was afraid I didn’t like her like that? For some reason?? That I can’t figure out??? Because what woman-attracted person in their right mind wouldn’t want to date her????
“Anyway yeah, apparently she’d liked me since late in our senior year but didn’t say anything so the others were watching us pine over each other like morons and didn’t think to intervene. Thanks, guys.”
15. Have any of your habits rubbed off on your s/o? For example, have they adopted some of your speech patterns into their daily conversations, or perhaps you have a habit of moving your hands a certain way that they unknowingly have started to mimic?
“I’ve always been pretty expressive with my hands while I talk, probably because I can’t be expressive in the traditional sense of the word with, y’know, my face. I’d say Nicky’s picked up on that but truth be told she’s just a really animated person anyway so I don’t think I’ve had much to do with that.
“She can have a really dry sense of humor, though, and that’s not something I used to have but its definitely rubbed off on me. Lots of sarcasm, especially aimed at each other.”
