SFW:
• Dating, or even befriending, Reinier would be a miracle and a curse. You'd have to get over the whole... symmetry thing. I've got plenty of ideas and if anyone wants I'll expand on them, but I chose this one.
• The "Fix This Guy's Perfectionism OCD" route!
• You, the illustrious and eternally errand-running Magister Merlin, keep running into cases of things being duplicated for symmetry.
• At first, it wasn't too detrimental. It was a slight bit stressful for the people who had to watch their town statues disappear. With the exception of Lyca, who found it beautiful. Good for her...?
• Along the way, you met Talene and found the perfectionist culprit- Reinier. His obsession with symmetry ran deep, and even if his arrogance was understandable due to his good looks, his personality made him hideous.
• Talene had chased him for a while. You ran into her many times more, and eventually, he duplicated buildings and entire towns.
• Reinier needed an intervention.
• How do you do an intervention on a demon?
• You summon him, of course!
• With the (totally not coerced) help of a farmer, you made patterns in Ryeham fields. Beautiful patterns, nearly perfect, yet slightly off.
• Reinier appeared ENRAGED.
• You had to restrain him, which almost took you and him out in the process.
• You told him he did not have merely an obsession, but an illness of the mind that humans dealt with, too. (Humans didn't have the power to do the shit he did. Thank Dura for that.)
• What ensued was the strangest thing you remembered doing.
• His progress was slow. For the first month, you thought you'd go mad. Not to mention his mysophobia which was also an issue to get through.
• You were not his therapist, you were his "handler"- keeping a muzzle on him with your magic. Besides celestials, no one was powerful enough to do so.
• When he made enough progress, he was still himself (annoying & hot), though his murderous and more destructive tendencies were curbed well enough.
• Point out his mismatched shoes and he will lose it.
• Point out his mismatching colors and he will try to break through the bonds on his magic to kill you.
• You're not sure how it happened, but along the way, you tripped and fell in "love".
• At first, it was pure physical attraction. Obvious and cheap.
• But when you saw the way he admired snowflakes and the "perfect" knit of your clothes, you found him endearing. Make sure not to let him see the snow melt or a hem get frayed- that's a recipe for an episode.
• Reinier used to be cool due to being a demonic being. Now, with his magic being held back, he accumulates it and it builds up as heat. He can't hold snowflakes anymore.
• You make some out of magic and hang them in his room.
• His room in the Mystical House is asymmetrical. Exposure therapy and all. The therapist said it'd help him, but he still arranges the furniture weirdly. It can't be helped...
• Reinier LOVES hearing himself talk. He will yap on about actual nonsense and will repeat phrases in a symmetrical way, with perfect rhythm and syllable count. Unfortunately, he has no mouth to cover.
• The way Reinier fell for you? Well...
• He did not confess until he was several months into living in your house.
• You had to torture it out of him, going softly first, only asking him how he felt to various insulting answers. You started making his room uneven to piss him off.
• He clawed at your cloak, praying you to stop, and he finally spat out the words like they were poison.
• "Fine! I- gag- well isn't that a pretty word- I... 'like' you!"
• You put the dresser back to where he had it. "I'm listening."
• "I see, now, that symmetry is not all there is to life. I'll never rid myself of the way I think, but, you're the second best thing to perfection, and I... feel what you humans would call love, towards you."
• You halted, something blooming in your chest.
• That was the day you got together. You never put much of a label on your relationship. It was beyond simple words.
• Reinier admires your magic. He says it's organized and the neatest, warmest magic he has ever encountered. Even though you're used to compliment his feel special because that bastard doesn't bother to lie. He supposed that that's what made him gravitate towards you, along with your unending patience and wisdom.
• If you do makeup (especially more artsy things) and mess up even a little, Reinier will offer- no- INSIST on fixing it. You'll usually accept because it's cute and he focuses hard. It's one of the only times he's truly calm.
• Sometimes he adds different shapes to each side. Each time you celebrate internally. Therapy was worth it!!!
• You have to remind him that people are not less worthy due to being imperfect. If he gets stuck in one of those loops you bring out... The Spray Bottle (which is filled with water but is a reused vintage perfume bottle. You know the one, with the thang)
• Long after he gets better (but he isn't cured. He's just Like That) you let him out of his quarantine. He'll tag along with you and you only. He doesn't care for other people.
• He's nice to the hamster familiars because if he isn't it's over for him. They're mildly scared of him.
• If you let him out of his bonds your opponents will be COOKED.
• And no one wants to mess with a 6'5 tall floating demon anyway...
• If you choose to get gay demon married Berial will try to crash the wedding and Reinier will be a bridezilla. The wedding? Immaculate. His attitude? Spray Bottle worthy.
• He is terrible at cooking. He will summon an eldritch horror if in the vicinity of a kitchen, and he hates touching food with his hands and is generally sensitive to sensory input. That's why you shower daily and clean the house often, his fear never goes away completely and you accommodate it, sharing some similarities with him in that regard.
• If you cuddle it has to be symmetrical. You are laying ON HIM and nowhere else, too bad that he's like a rock in softness.
• Hates kids. Too chaotic.
• Everyone is horrified at the pairing of Reinier x Magister Merlin. All that matters is that you're happy.
• You act like an old couple. Constantly.
• He might make jewelry for you similar to his if he gets bored. Which is often. 50% of your wardrobe is now created by him, not that you mind.
• Temesia is especially horrified by your relationship. Dionel isn't surprised, and Valen finds it funny. Talene is glad he's domesticated because she doesn't have to deal with his BS.
• Reinier is all bark and no bite. With you around him, being cruel is not an option.
NSFW:
• The reproductive systems of (most) humans are symmetrical... Which fascinates him.
• He has no mouth, so it's mostly his hands doing the work.
• Reinier can create genitals for himself if you're into that. He's in control of what they are, but they'll always be demonic in a way- spiked, shaped strangely, segmented, tentacles, etc.
• If you're into degradation/praise you've met your match. Either dynamic works.
• His horns look pretty pullable
• TWO SETS OF ARMS??? TWO SETS OF A-
• Since he's strong and TWO SETS OF ARMS, he could easily hold you up in any way and position, and restrain you easily. Two sets of arms, guys.
• Since he has claws, I imagine he'd be into scratching you and sadism. It fits his lore.
• Hear me out- he likes bondage, creating patterns out of rope or magic on his partner. Non-sexually, too.
• If he takes longer to work through his mysophobia, he might use magic and not touch you at all to please you.
• He doesn't have an inherent drive to have sex, he does it for you, and you're the only one who makes him feel any of that attraction and desire.
• As a stickler for rules, he can be rather obedient.
