Eleric! Platonic or romantic. Whatever you wanna do.

Who pays for the meals: Alaric. It's his thing.
Who slams the oven door and who plays the trombone: Elena. She does not do cooking. But neither really are one for trombones.

Who leaves the bathroom door open: Alaric. Sometimes. Rude.
Who tells the ‘dad jokes’: Alaric. Definitely. But it makes Elena chuckle.

Who travels more: Alaric. History teacher conventions and such.
Who spends more cash: Elena. College costs a lot.
Who buys the things in infomercials: Elena. But only when she feels it’s necessary.
Who draws in the dust on their cars: Elena. Cute little notes because she can.
Who starts the snowball fights: Elena. Alaric acts too old for that shit, but he'll do it anyway.
Who throws away the directions to things: Neither. Directions are there for a reason.
Who puts up holiday decor: They both do. He focuses on the outside and she does the inside.
Who is more likely to forget to bathe: Neither. Good hygiene, kids. Good hygiene.
Who gets more obsessed about things: Elena. Ric's the semi-sane one.
Who sings in the shower more often: RIC. He does it all the time and Elena teases him for it. It's usually some Johnny Cash type, thing, too.
