do your ocs like giving or receiving physical affection more? wb words of affirmation?
Yay! I hope you don't mind me treating this like a Love Language ask because those all fall under the same umbrella.
Finn: Words of Affirmation first, Physical Affection second. He is a bit of a clingy bby and definitely needs to hear that he's loved and valued, then he needs the cuddles to back it up.
Thea: Words of Affirmation and gifts. Being penpals with the MC growing up made her have a great appreciation with words of affirmation and gifts because they were the only two ways she could show her affection, so
Linnet: Words of Affirmation and Acts of Service.
Medea: Acts of Service and receiving gifts. Medea is a very selfless lover and likes it when her lover is the same for her. Giving gifts makes her feel valued for her hard work. Words of Affirmation is similarly valuable to her, but it's not something she's ready to hear.
Helios: Physical Touch and Giving Gifts. Helios is a more of a low key lover, but they love giving gifts to their lover after being away for long periods of time. It's how they show that they are in Helios' thoughts when they're apart.
Eirik: Words of affirmation and Gifts. Eirik likes to be told he's loved and valued and, god, he also loves throwing his money around. He's an ass, but that's how he cares!
Because I just feel like it. I wanted to take a break today before diving into my inbox.
I only really listen to K-pop so lmao I'm soooorry. (つ//﹏ //⊂) Enjoy and criticize my taste in music all you like haha
Finny: Shine - Pentagon
Even though I like you, nobody knows
Even when I see other girls, nobody’s like you
I’m sorry for having no courage
You can laugh at me all you want
I’m a loser who loves you
Yes, I’m a misery
To you, I’m a nuisance, I’m an outsider
But in this world, I only need you
Thea: Sour Grapes - LE SSERAFIM
It’s bittersweet that I don’t wanna taste
I don’t think it’s gonna be that sweet
The half-baked emotions, I just feel afraid
I’ll never bite, I’ll never bite the pain
Sour, a bitter taste making me cry
Sour, if that’s love
I don’t want to taste it, I just feel afraid
Love is sour love is sour grapes
Linnet: Feel Special - Twice
You make me feel special
No matter how the world brings me down
Even when hurtful words stab me
I smile again cuz you’re there
That’s what you do
Again I feel special
One moment I feel like I’m nothing at all
Like no one would notice if I were gone
But then when I hear you calling me
I feel loved, I feel so special
Medea: She's a Baby - Zico
I can’t believe it
This is the first time
That I poured it out like this
Blunt words,
Hidden feelings
Figured it out with just one kiss
You’re special, I admit
All of my concerns focus on only you
It’s okay, I’ll look after you all day
She’s a baby, once you get to know her, she’s a baby
She’ll get in big trouble if you leave her alone all day
Bad bad, you better not touch a single hair on her
Let her sleep well yeah
She’s a baby, once you get to know her, she’s a baby
Never gonna leave her alone
Happy happy
I’m so jealous of your boyfriend
Helios: Over me -Overdose (Boys Planet)
Getting burned, we're on fire
You and I go to the end of this night
There's no need to hide our desire
Wake me up like I'm suffocating, over me
You've got changed
Over me, over me, over me
Tonight, we finally
Over me, over me, over me
I get more drunk, you gradually lean on me
The future where you can't see the bloated heart
I paint on the paint called you
The way my appearance changes
I infiltrate in you like you're addicted
Fell deeply, oh-oh (Ooh)
Eirik: Love Killa - Monsta X
As you know, we can never let go of each other
This love, this situation, the one who can handle all this
You know that yeah
You always (Put an end, put an end)
It’s not too bad for me
There’s no malice here
(Check ‘em out, check ‘em out)
Now, what’s next?
Cruel but beautiful, love killa, love killa
It’s beautiful, love killa, love killa
It’s beautiful, love killa, love killa
The moment where we aim at each other
Hush hush, Imma take you down
Oh I’m sorry, did I make you anxious?
I love drama so how would the RO’s react if during tea time with MC, the MC was poisoned. Who’s calm and rational and who’s like vengeful I guess?
Finny: He’d panic first, then do something stupid like taste the tea himself to make sure it was really poisoned. (And he’d survive somehow out of the power of himbo) V●ᴥ●V Afterwards he be super paranoid at anything resembling tea. He’s never let his lover get hurt like that again!
Thea: She’d get super paranoid, but very methodical at handling the situation. She’s quickly isolate the MC and take the tea with her and quickly study as much as she can to find the antidote. Her biggest concern would be saving the MC’s life and then finding the culprit. She’s doesn’t panic because she’s used to this kind of thing. She wouldn’t let anyone near the MC even Sieghardt or Alberich.
Linnet: Girl is on top of her game. Linnet would secure the area. Lock it down and get first responders and a doctor on the scene. Afterwards she’ll handle the crime scene herself and interview persons of interest until she can hunt down the person responsible. Girl would be like a bloodhound tbh.
Medea and Helios: If they are concerned, they wouldn’t show it. Once they’re sure the MC is taken care of by the professionals, they’d simply disappear for a while. Would that be shady and suspicious? Yeah. Would people think they poisoned the MC themselves? Uh huh. But then they’ll come back and say the job is done. And that’s that. ┐('~`;)┌ afterwards Medea would coddle the MC while Helios would try to make a funny joke to make the MC feel better.
Eirik: He’ll be the one yelling at the top of his lung. Screaming for help and to find the god damn monster who did this. Then he’d go out of his way to make sure that asshole pays dearly for messing with the MC. He would be cruel, slow and deliberate in getting bad much information as possible to find who or what was responsible.
Finny & Linnet: They would start planning a sports team if the Empire had any. And start making lil jerseys for each baby and ask their sibling for help. Creativity would go out the window when it comes to baby names, it's gonna be numerical. Finny would probably panic a lot more compared to Linnet, thinking if he's capable of being a good father to six kids. Linnet would have her worries too, but she'd quietly worry while training, she'd start thinking of some kind of regimen to take care of the kids.
Thea: Instant headache. She'd take out the ledger call her steward and start calculating the costs of having six children. How many tutors should you have? How many nannies? She'd send a letter to her parents begging for help. And would stock up on as much sleep as possible.
Medea: She'd panic so hard. She'd panic with having one child, but SIX?!!? She'd be sewing for weeks. She think of different flower names for the babes.
Helios: Would look to find a wagon to cart the around MC.(*´▽`*)Because how big would that belly be if they're having sextuplets?? Helios would be very happy. They always wanted a big family.
Eirik: Would probably faint first. Six kids is a jumpscare he wasn't excepting, but then he'd take it in stride and start throwing money around to make room for six fucking kids. He'd be worried about favouritism, but he'd always make the effort to make sure each of his children felt loved.
Hello, I wanted to ask...What if mc grows up as an introverted person with a gentle and quiet personality and becomes a person who does not know how to deal with social situations, gets depressed quickly, and cries a lot? I would love to know how ROs and the mc family deal with this type of personality...
I think I answered a ask similar to this when it comes to the family, but I can't find it D:
Oh i do want to preface this as I totally understand how serious and shitty depression is. But some of my characters react will badly in a way that doesn't help those who suffer from depression because they're very flawed and might not have the emotional intelligence or skills to help their partners who suffer from depression/anxiety. I do not approve of their methods, but that's just how some of them are going to react. Ok so-
RO(s):
Finny: He'll get really sad if his lover is sad ): so he'll try to make them happy and comfortable and feel discouraged when it's not as easy. I can see Finny really struggling and grow unhealthy/dependant tendencies/traits because of it. He'll never stop trying to make things right and will carry the burden of any social interaction that the MC is uncomfortable with, even if he's own health, both physical and mental health suffers from it.
Thea: She'll quietly comfort the MC and won't force them to attend any unneeded social situations. She's a quiet person, so she'll always be glad to be a soothing presence for the MC without being too forceful. She'll always make sure the her lover is open with how they are feeling so she knows how to deal with it properly.
Linnet: She has no problem being the more independent partner in situations that the MC is uncomfortable with. She'll also be very hands on with the MC's mental state, making sure they have an active and healthy environment with people they'll feel comfortable talking about, that doesn't include her. Linnet is more likely to be away from the MC compared to the other RO(s) so she often makes sure they'll be okay without her. Like her brother, she might end up neglecting herself to make sure her partner is okay.
Medea: She'd coddle and soothe an MC with depression and anxiety issues. She'll be very protective and aggressive to those might make the MC sad, and will probably get upset at herself when her efforts don't make a difference. She'll see it as failure on herself if the MC doesn't feel better and will most likely lashout. Afterwards she'll come back and apologize and go out of her way to prove her love.
Helios: Uhhh. Look, Helios isn't cold hearted or anything like that. They're pretty kind and selfless person, however they won't baby or coddle the MC. They can't. Helios isn't the type of person who can be with them all the time to soothe their tears or comfort them. They'll gladly do anything to make their lover feel safe and comforted and they'll make sure they have a good support group. But they'll always encourage and suggest ways for the MC to overcome their depression and anxiety. In social situations they'll try to make it as lighthearted as possible to make the MC more comfortable. They're good at doing that.
Eirik: Like Medea, Eirik will probably feel frustrated when the MC doesn't get better with all his efforts. He's the type to throw money at every problem in hopes it would be the solution then get upset when he's back at square one. He'll never abandon the MC and he'll be (for once be vocal about his affections), but he'll probably have to avoid them for a few days so he doesn't take out his temper on them because HE knows that's the last thing his partner needs. ):
Family:
The Empress and Alberich would never push the MC into situations they won't feel comfortable and will only encourage them to have little tea parties with close friends. It'll be something they'll look closely at and slowly ease the MC into being less scared and think with a more healthy mindset. Sieghardt would be very overprotective with the MC and will feel really bad about being so far away from home. He'd always ask about their condition from Alberich and send small gifts and trinkets for the MC to make them feel better.
Females ROs reaction when they finds out they’re pregnant with mc child🥹 Also WHERES THEA ART!!
oh boy-
Thea: She'd keep it a secret for as long as she can. She'd be so coy. Giggling to herself. Dropping hints only she would understand. She'd be so happy and very very overjoyed(and a very scared). She'd think of some elaborate prank to tell her partner she's with a bby.
Linnet: Tbh, I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't notice she was pregnant for a looong time. Someone else is more likely to notice before she does. Then She'd be soo happy. There's no way she'll be able it a secret. She'd probably run over the MC in her excitement to tell them. Rip.
Medea: PANICK
I'msooooorrry for no Thea art yet (༎ຶ¬༎ຶ) The update has been eating me alivvvvve. I'm the middle of packing cause I'm staying over at my cousins place for two weeks(Im cat sitting!! and I have relatives coming over from abroad). I'll be running a different setup while I'm over there, but once the update is out and if I can run clip studio smoothly on my old gaming laptop, I'll start doodling again. (Which I hope is the case!).
If not it's gonna be a two week draught of no art ( ಡ ﹏ ಡ ).
On a scale of least to most slowburn, where do all of the ROs lie? Can you tag this question with #slowburn, please?
I’ll try my best! I like slow burn romances, but i don’t think I have the patience for them tbh lmaooo
These are subject to change tho:
Thea/Finny -> Linnet/Medea/Eirik-> Helios
Idk how Id classify ROs who are in denial vs those who flirty and affectionate…but take longer for the emotional connection- which makes it hard to judge Medea, Eirik and Helios.
I mean technically Thea and Finny are the real slowburn since they’ve been in the equations since childhood, but that foundation means their romances are a little faster pace so idkkkkkkk 🙃🥲🫠
