For the love headcanons: Benura and/or Rasiva?
When they discover they’re got a crush: God it takes them forever tbh. Like if they’re just left to their own thoughts, it takes them months to realize it. However, if the person confesses feelings before that it might speed up the realization process for Ben.
How they confess/hint: They don’t. They would never, ever confess their feelings for someone first, and they don’t intentionally hint at it either.
Big gestures of love: Showing someone their stories and also like... actually going to meet up with someone irl are both huge gestures of love for them
Little gestures of love: Hand holding (or any physical contact in general tbh) is the main one
How to win their heart: Just be nice to them and stick around long enough to get past their bitterness tbh. Also make them feel safe.
How to break their heart: Tell them that they’re too high maintenance bc of their health would really upset them i think
Things that make their heart flutter: Pretty much anything romance related
Their type: Really positive people! Not like.. really bubbly and energetic positive, but optimists who give off good vibes. Also persistent people.
Ideal date: Exploring the abandoned town sort of near their hive and maybe having a picnic there!
Past relationships: Nope! They don’t even have any friends lmao
How they might affect current relationships: Also nope!
‘Goals’ in a relationship (marriage, kids, a house, etc): Tbh they kind of want to live in the same hive as a partner eventually, though they don’t think that’s actually possible
Any other love headcanons: They’re actually really sweet to their partners, it just takes a while for them to get to that point
When they discover they’re got a crush: He discovers it pretty quickly (like within a couple days of getting feelings for someone) but it takes him a very long time to actually admit it to himself lmao
How they confess/hint: He expects other people to confess to him, so he’d never confess to someone himself. That said, he does flirt a lot, buy his crush expensive things, and is generally a lot nicer to them than he is to other people.
Big gestures of love: Buying personal gifts instead of generic “Here’s some expensive jewelry” gifts, dropping his Big Bitch persona and being more vulnerable, elaborately planned date nights.
Little gestures of love: Honestly he’s not very good at small gestures lmao... everything he does is really Extra and Lavish
How to win their heart: Buy him nice stuff lmao. Also express that you want to be around him bc of who he is and not just bc of how he looks
How to break their heart: Honestly like if he likes you all you gotta do to break his heart is break up with him/reject him in some way. He’s never dealt with rejection before
Things that make their heart flutter: Just being around someone he genuinely cares about lmao
Their type: Handsome seadwellers and kindhearted jadebloods
Ideal date: Tbh... just like a simple candlelit dinner.
Past relationships: He’s had a couple flings and relationships for publicity, but nothing serious
How they might affect current relationships: He doesn’t really take most relationships seriously since he’s only ever had experience with non-serious ones lmao
‘Goals’ in a relationship (marriage, kids, a house, etc): Nope!
Any other love headcanons: He’s a huge secret romantic, so whoever he dates ends up getting completely spoiled with really romantic gifts and dates
