for the ship asks!! 3 and 5 for helios/javik. aaaaand for maddox/zaeed... 21 and 25. 🤲💕
took a little while to respond to this after all, but here we go. thanks for the ask!
one thing about me is that i always go by the order i read these first, so let's start with helios and javik.
3. What do they like about one another? Include both physical and personality traits, anything they like.
I think what Helios values about Javik the most is his collected demeanor and in-your-face honesty. There's no sugarcoating, no beating around the bush, it's do or die, eat or be eaten, act now or act never. Also there's no one really bold enough to tell him no and mean it, at least until he meets Javik, so😏. And physically speaking... well, Helios is a large guy in a world full of people who are smaller than him. Being with someone who matches him in strength and size (and that he doesn't have to worry about hurting on accident) is a novely to him that's really hitting the right spot. Javik's interest in Helios's physicality was mostly scientific at first, but then grew into attraction the more familiar he got with the human body. For all his ranting about other races, there's a lot to be said in defense of a good set of bulk and muscles. And a hairy ass of, course. Besides that, there's something about him that Javik's never gotten to experience before and it's that Helios is the beacon of hope that everyone else is counting on, and Javik might be bitter but even he can't deny that Helios's willpower and ambition inspire something in him that was snuffed out 50000 years ago. There's something healing about getting to believe in and rely on someone for once.
5. What type of dynamic do you see them having? Are they fluffy or steamy? Are they soulmates or doomed to fail?
Someone already beat you to it, I've already answered that question here.
and now that we're all primed on the healthy relationship let's switch over to the other one. here's everything regarding maddox and zaeed that hasn't been said already:
21. Would they get into fights? What over, and how do they move forward?
There's not a lot of fighting between them per se as they move pretty much as one unit, but things tend to get heated when their feelings for each other get dragged out into the spotlight somehow and they're forced to at the very least address or acknowledge them. I like to think of it as Zaeed being uncomfortable dealing with them and Maddox being uncomfortable with them existing in the first place. They usually move forward by pretending the fight didn't happen once the dust has settled (they're also both very aware that something has happened).
25. Try and think of either 3 silly or angsty headcanons for them as a couple? Depending on the dynamic of the ship, could be anything at all. If you cant think of 3, thats fine.
Well see, someone else already beat you to that one too.😔
