Something I've always written about Raph is that he hates rain. Hates seeing it, hearing it, feeling it because he associates it with his time on the island, when all he could do was huddle under his shelter.

Recently I was hit with the idea that eventually, as he continues to heal, he reframes the way he looks at rainy days; now they make him think of lazy, quiet afternoons with his husband, snuggled up with a book and tea. Or sleepy mornings while Odion, Maiya, and Raphael are warm under the covers.

(-.-): How should one wake them up? Do they get out of bed easily?

Physical Detail Ask Meme:

Just say his name once or twice. He’s pretty good about getting out of bed... Unless he wakes up feeling affectionate for his husband.

Me: *thinks about Husbands fluff*

Me: *covers face with hands and screams into said hands*

((Co-worker caught me smiling while we were closing up shop. I tried playing it off as nothing, but he really wanted to know--probably because I was in a terrible mood most of the shift because working nine days in a row and being being subjected to a power trip by the assistant store director will do that to a gal.

I didn't want to tell him I was thinking about my OCs, so I told him I was thinking about my cat. Which wasn't a total lie since I actually dedicate a lot of my thoughts to my cat when I'm at work to get me through the day. Like, as soon as I stepped out the front door I said to myself, "I miss her already."

But yeah. It would have been awkward trying to explain how I was thinking of a scene where my girl Luna drunkenly offers to pay the Husbands 2000 yen each if they crush a watermelon between their thighs, because she's a mess. And because she isn't the only one in Maiya's friend group who's very brazen with her attraction to the Husbands, Hiro chimes in he'll pay 10000 yen.

Later Luna asks Raph if he were to flex while measuring his biceps, would the measuring tape break, like the training montage in Hercules.

Maiya, who is also drunk, let's out a really long gasp and asks why she's never thought to ask that question.))

I just like to imagine what a Doma reunion would be like when the others find out Raphael--stoic, no-nonsense Raphael--is happily married and lives with his husband and his husband’s girlfriend and their three cats

An image that’s been nestled in my brainspace for the last couple of weeks is Raph is taking a nap in bed; Odion is reclined on the wall with some pillows, reading. Raph wakes up from a tense dream he’s able to forget as soon as he opens his eyes, but the bad feelings from the dream have crossed over into the real world. 

Odion, intuiting what his husband needs, lifts up the elbow facing Raph, creating space for his husband to snuggle close. Which Raph does. And Odion rests his arm on Raph’s back, holding him, and he continues to read.

So. The Ishtars.

Papa Ishtar was the leader until Mama Ishtar double crossed him--but it’s super secret and no one but Odion knows.

Papa Ishtar either died under “mysterious circumstances” or he was sold out to some hunters and his right hand man was blamed for it because Mama Ishtar is a stone cold bish.

My Angst Senses tell me that the OT3 broke up because of Mama Ishtar and O’s loyalty to his clan.

Though all three deny it vehemently, there’s still feelings. Feelings buried deep down--fifty miles underground in a box locked inside of a box locked inside of another box wrapped in chains with immortal scorpions crawling around inside.

O’s going to be what’s on Raph’s mind when the stake eventually enters his heart tbh.

NOT THAT HE’LL EVER ADMIT IT!

((Maiya joked about getting the guys a Congrats on the Sex cake.

They didn't find the idea as funny as she did.))
