6, 18, 35, and also 43 (even though it's a bit of a throwback) for Taviloth? My original favorite Pillars OTP? <3
6. Who falls asleep last, watching the other with a small affectionate smile?
It's pretty close to 50/50, actually, at least now, which says a lot about how much Tavi trusts him. By the start of the game she'd developed the habit of always being the last one asleep in a group until she knew she could trust them. And even after trusting people, she's still so hair-trigger used to having to defend herself it takes awhile to get comfortable falling asleep when someone else is still awake. (She gets there in a couple weeks with the Pillars 1 crew, and even faster in Deadfire, bc by the time you leave Port Maje, you already have Edér and Aloth and she knows she can trust both of them watching her back.) But she's comfortable falling asleep around Aloth, so it's an even mix. When he falls asleep first it's usually on top of or underneath whatever book he's currently reading and she thinks it's ADORABLE.
18. Who gets the window seat?
Aloth. He'll actually appreciate the view, and Tavi wants the aisle seat anyway so she's a) freer to move and b) between him and the most likely angle for danger to come from.
35. What do they smell when they smell amortentia?
oooooh, I like this one. :3
Aloth: Old books, sigil ink, the very specific combination of leather, copper, and sweat that just is Tavi
Tavi: Wood shavings, her mother's garden, and the burny tang of ozone that hangs in the air around Aloth after he uses magic in a fight.
43. What is the first thing that changes when they realize they have feelings for the other?
Tavi starts calling Aloth "city slicker" a LOT. She was already using that as a nickname, but there's a while in there where she almost exclusively called him that. It's like she was afraid the way she said his name would clue him in that she liked him. (Ironically, the fact she's constantly deflecting by using a nickname is something he actually picks up on as a nervous habit of hers in TTtC :P)
Aloth has trouble maintaining eye contact when he starts to realize he likes her(she doesn't notice; he's just shy), and starts casting any defensive/shielding spells on her first, rather than himself or Edér or anybody else(which she does notice; he explains it away as her likely being the one to need it the most with the wildly rushing into danger). Or, he tries to. Her habit of charging into fights sometimes carries her out of range before he can get a spell cast. xD
