he needs to learn to be more careful about where he orbs to. a male randomly appearing within a blue ray of light - it wasn't something many would be able to stomach easily, so once he's completely focused; once he's spotted the male before him his eyes are widening abruptly. "uh," how does one make this appear natural. "ta-da." acting as though it's a magic trick. "you impressed?" and cue the sheepish chuckle.
colour coded starter call // accepting :
BLUE -- an angsty starter. ( makeyoubleeds )
his hands are trembling when he curls them into fists ; back resting against the wall as he cradles his legs to his chest. he recognises the familiar constriction in his chest, his heart racing and he thinks if he looked down, he could see the thump ; thump ; thump against his chest. everything is simultaneously overwhelming and not enough to the point where he doesn’t know what to do, barely able to register the other boy entering the room. “ a-aspen -- ” elwood gasps, lips parted as though to gulp in air, failing as he chokes back a sob. “ i killed someone, i k--illed someone, i can’t be a dad, i can’t be a d-dad -- i’m a murderer, oh my god, i’m a murderer. ”
who’s more likely to find who wearing their clothes?: elwood is more likely to find aspen in his clothes, definitely. mainly because elwood probably couldn’t fit into aspen’s clothes, but also because he unsubtly hints he wants aspen in his sweatshirts all the time, because he thinks the sight is adorable.
who enunciates hand holding?: aspen, elwood isn’t always big on affection ( unless they’re alone ) but if aspen initiated anything, he’d be more than happy to oblige.
who likes having their hair washed by who?: elwood - anything involving his hair is his biggest weakness, and he’ll often be really unsubtle about that, too. whenever someone plays with his hair, or in this case washes it, the gesture soothes him to no end.
who likes to slow dance?: neither of them, really. elwood isn’t able to keep still long enough to slow dance & aspen is usually too excitable when daddy’s home.
muse that’s more likely to fall asleep with their head in the others lap?: aspen is more likely to fall asleep in elwood’s lap, but if elwood gets home from work or school and he’s especially tired, it’s possible he would too.
muse that does all the cuddling in a blanket fort?: aspen - he’s the innocent, childlike one of the two, but again if aspen wants it, there’s no other alternative other than he’s getting it.
who hogs most of the covers at night?: probably elwood, he gets ridiculously cold at night and he’ll either steal all the blankets, or end up completely wrapped around aspen for ( attempted ) warmth instead.
muse who nuzzles the others shoulder to get them to give them a head rub?: elwood, actually. elwood sort of knows when aspen wants something, but because he’s the less obvious of the two in terms of what he wants, he’s more likely to ask/show he wants something than aspen, just because aspen doesn’t have to vocally tell elwood for el to know he wants something.
how do they share a desert? two forks or one?: elwood doesn’t eat desert, really. he’s probably fed aspen desert before, though, if he’s been good.who gets jealous more easily?: elwood doesn’t really get jealous, just because he trusts aspen with everything he has. but maybe aspen? not because elwood is unfaithful, but because he’s charming by nature, and to others that can often translate as he’s flirting with them.
who gets angered more easily?: aspen - elwood very, very rarely loses his temper because he’s usually so calm, and it’d take a lot for him to be angry.
how do they go to sleep at night?: either aspen is the little spoon or they fall asleep facing each other, dependent on how tired they are. if they go to bed exhausted, then they’d sleep with aspen’s back to elwood’s chest, but if they talk before they sleep, then chest to chest, with aspen’s head tucked beneath elwood’s chin.
who gets the most shoulder rubs?: elwood - his shoulders & his neck often strain due to his work, and though he won’t always ask, it’s obvious when he needs one.
what are there arguments/fights like? how often do they fight?: they very rarely fight, just because elwood finds it difficult to be mad at him. if anything, it’d be something really small, or if aspen is throwing a tantrum, but he wouldn’t be angry per say, he’d just become inpatient.
who is more likely to throw things in fights?: aspen, because as said earlier, even when he’s angry elwood is still relatively calm.
how do they make it up to each other/apologize after an argument?: i can imagine it’d include a lot of kisses, and a lot of holding and apologies, but he doesn’t take long for things between them to go back to normal.
do they have nicknames for each other?: not so much nicknames in regards to elwood to aspen, but he very rarely calls him by name - it’s always baby, baby boy, or some variation of that. aspen calls elwood daddy, and sometimes elly.
caring for each other while ill, how does the other muse go about it?: aspen very rarely gets sick, but elwood does since he has a weak immune system. usually, it involves a lot of elwood pretending he’s actually okay, and aspen fussing all over him until he feels better again.
who’s more likely to be patching the others wound?: elwood is likely to be patching aspen up - fixing up his knuckles, wiping away the blood etc. he’ll always clean him up if he comes home after being knocked about, but he’ll never ask where the wounds came from. he figures it’s best he doesn’t ask, because he won’t get an answer either way.
muse that says ‘i told you so’, after they come home from the beach and other muse is burnt to a crisp while whining how bad it hurts for not listening and putting on sunblock after the other muse repeatedly told them they’d get burnt?: aspen to elwood - but it’d be playful teasing, because elwood never remembers things like sun cream when he’s out, and he’ll always prioritise something else over his own well being. whether that’s something relatively trivial like sun cream in this case, or something bigger.
your otp has a newborn baby, who gets up in the middle of the night when he/she cries?:both of them - they’re both as in-tuned as each other to the baby, and neither would let the other one take care of them, and then neither will sleep again until their little baby is happy and content.
your muse’s of the otp reaction to finding the others crying about something?: it’s one of the rare times he feels anger - the prospect that someone has hurt aspen, or that someone has said something to him riles elwood up quicker than anything else. his first instinct would be to hold him, and his second would be to tell him how much he loves him and that daddy’s got him until he calms down a little.
and how do they make them feel better?: lots of kissing and delicate touching - he’d get his blanket and carry him up to bed and hold him, rocking him a little, until he calms down enough to talk.
what would they be like as parents?: fantastic - they’d be so doting on their child(ren) that there’d never be a day they didn’t tell them how much they love them, and they’d be playful and active with them while they were young, making sure they were always entertained. then when they grew up, they’d always be involved with helping them with school work and any issues they have etc. i think they’d be really understanding parents.
what would they have been like as childhood sweethearts?: much the same as they are now - playful, excitable. two idiots in love, really, and impossibly fond of each other.
who enunciates taking a bath together?: either of them, really. usually elwood.
who likes who playing with their hair?: elwood always wants aspen to play with his hair, it honestly soothes him so much and it can improve his mood tenfold. it really is his biggest weakness, too.
the place they mostly likely accidentally fall asleep together?: nothing exciting, usually in front of the television, or if they end up having sex on the floor it’s pretty possible they’d crash straight after that, too.
fingers run through his newly dyed hair ( pink strands STANDING OUT more than the blonde ever did ), a book, his fifth one in the past month talking about babies; he’s nothing but prepared after all, perched on his lap as he sits on their bed. jack doesn’t even hear aspen coming home until he hears the footsteps getting closer. “yous must sneak up on people a lot, don’t you ??”
