Feli share your murven headcanons with me please
oh god okay here come the feels (i feel like these are going to be long ones so bear with me)
when theyre finally back with the others, murphy would always stay up late, later than anyone else, and he’d just sit by raven and watch over her as she slept and one night she wakes up from a nightmare and murphy’s just sitting there staring up at the stars and she reaches for his arm (which makes him jump haha) and they start talking and somehow, after a lot of fighting it, he ends up laying down on the ground next to her, and they both fall asleep looking at the stars
someone from skaikru starts shit talking murphy and raven is quick to come to his defense which surprises everyone, especially murphy
still being treated like a pariah he decides hes better on his own and attempts to leave but raven stops him he’s all like “theres nothing here for me, no one wants me here” and ravens like “i want you to stay” “i need you”
they have a lot of little inside jokes that no one else understands (and arent even funny) theyre more like sardonic quips that only make each other smile
murphy can tell when shes on the verge of a meltdown and he’s always the one who gets her to calm down
raven kisses him first because hes too terrified and too self loathing to think he’d ever actually have a chance with her so even tho he can feel his feelings for her change and he can feel their dynamic shift hes still terrified of screwing it up and when she does kiss him hes kind of just speechless and just looks at her in awe which is new for the both of them
murphy says i love you first and its without even realizing it, like he says it as a passing comment to someone else i.e. “hurt the girl that i love and itll be the last thing you do”
raven finally says it when he’s injured/near death (sorry not sorry i live for the angst™ & drama™) it’s super emotional because they arent even together at that point its all a very unofficial thing they have that everyone else can see but anyway it starts off with her trying to pretend that everythings okay by like telling him he’ll be fine because hes a cockroach and cockroaches survive but then it gets serious and she realizes she might actually lose him and theres this moment of vulnerability “you cant leave me… please dont leave me” and right before he loses consciousness shes like “please dont… i love you”
they consummate their relationship once hes healed, he goes to her and playfully teases her about her ‘falling in love with a cockroach’ and theres another moment of vulnerability where they say it to e/o and that starts off their first time !!!!
