How would the ROs feel about a very touchy-feely MC that likes to drape themselves over RO whenever possible? Sitting on the couch watching TV? MC has their legs resting in their lap. Doing paperwork at a desk? MC is now suddenly sitting on their lap "helping."

E: Loves it-- shy and a bit embarrassed at first, but ugh they're so touch-starved they will take literally whatever MC has to offer them. They also live for anything domestic so for the love of the four please sit with them when they do paperwork.

M: You'd be a tangle of limbs 24/7 as they're equally touchy-feely. Of course, they'd respect the boundaries of an MC who doesn't want to be touched-- but if your MC is down then they understand the assignment 100%.

C: They're a cat. One moment they would rather not be touched at all, or they act like they don't particularly care about it-- but the moment MC gives up and makes to move away, they're grabbing your hand and hauling you back. "Who said I wanted you to leave?"

T: It's kind of weird to them at first-- they're so used to being on their own, doing their own thing it's an adjustment getting used to having someone else in their space, much less literally draped over them. It'd be a little comical too if your MC is on the shorter side as Tenebrosus is super tall. Of course, they'd grow to like it-- acting as if the MC clinging to them like a spider monkey is the most natural and sensible thing in the world. "What? Of course MC is here why wouldn't they be?"

How would ROs react if, when MC and RO were on the verge of kissing, MC stops them, blushes hard and says "Wait...I don't know how to kiss, I might be bad at it..."

👀 Ah... I like this one.

E: Their mouth thins into a straight line, brows furrowing in confusion. "I don't... know either." They'd fidget a little, unsure how to proceed or if they even should proceed. "Though I hope you know I'd never be one to judge you."

M: They'd smile a bit, "Sweetness, I have full confidence you'd perform admirably. Have I ever told you about my first kiss?" Then they'd proceed to dive into a full-blown, dramatically-told story about how awful their first kiss was, but with a humorous spin in the attempt to make you feel more at ease. Plus toss in some pickup line about how "you're in good hands" with them.

C: They'd inhale a bit, you'd catch the slight twinge of disappointment in their eyes as they were so close. Still, they'd shake their head as though you said something silly-- because to them, you kind of did. "And yet-- I still want to kiss you anyway. For all you know I could be a terrible kisser."

T: For the first time in possibly literal centuries, they start laughing. A kind of disbelieving, quiet laughter as that was possibly the last thing they expected you to say. "What a pair we make, hm? Here I am worried if you wanted to kiss me at all and you're afraid you'll underperform-- which I can assure you, you can't. You've already exceeded my expectations in every possible way, you could never disappoint me."

How do each of the ROs react to flirting with shy vs bold MC?

All of them would respect MC's comfort-level, if they sense you're not too comfortable with flirting-- they'd meet you where you're at. That being said...

E: They're super shy so they get it 100%-- That isn't to say that they won't flirt or can't, but it will be awkward no matter if the MC is bold or shy. They'd probably feel comforted that a shy MC is in a similar boat as them, and would grow bright red at even the smallest flirts from a bold MC.

M: Flirts all the time, 24/7. They would have great fun with an MC who could shoot pickup lines right back at them, enjoying the banter that could arise from it. However, they also think shy MCs are a bit adorable too, if not for the fact that it's so easy to get a reaction out of them.

C: Not exactly shy like E but not as bold as M, either. C is more stoic, but can spout forth witty banter if the mood strikes them. They find shy MCs endearing and, though they would claim bold MCs are 'annoying', you'd probably catch them hiding a smile more than once, pretending not to be amused.

T: Tenebrosus kind of sees all humans as loud and obnoxious-- so a bold MC would initially be exactly as they expected, though they would grow in time to appreciate it and you specifically. If MC is shy, it's a bit of a surprise to them-- something that intrigues them. The flirting is always confusing to them, no matter whether the MC is bold or shy.

What if the one if the RO's spotted a deer and said "look, deer!" and the MC without skipping a beat turned around and said "yes honey?"

E: Was probably admiring the wildlife, then turning to face you slowly as what you said sinks in. Genuinely can't tell if you're being sincere or pulling a dad joke. They'd have a sort of inner-conflict with themselves over how to respond before snickering and shaking their head. "You're just like your dad."

M: "D'aww" They smile, cupping your cheek. "You really got to stop being so gods damn adorable. Glad to know I come first before some woodland creatures." Honestly flattered, forgot all about what they were trying to point out to you.

C: Was probably saying this to signal to you-- bow at the ready to hunt down supper. Their posture stills, hesitating mid-shot as their eyes turn to glance back at you. "I meant the--" they start to correct themselves, looking back to see all the actual deer have been scared off. "...Nevermind, Dear." they finish, smiling despite themselves.

T:

If sincere, they find it endearing and a bit adorable-- even though it's rather silly to them. If joking around, they contemplate their life that led them to this moment for a split second, staring you dead in the eyes the whole time and letting the silence build. "Never ceases to amaze me that I'm in love with you."

Okay this has been living in my head for the past couple of days, but can I get the ROs reactions to moments where our MC is being completely and utterly dense? Like where we’re supposed to “play dumb” but “not t h a t dumb” act. 👀 I just stan a simple-minded MC— 🤡

These are lovable dumbass hours 😔👌

E: The only RO that's actually met your father so... not entirely surprised to find you're like him in that aspect. Their own father was also super dense at times so they're just used to dealing with lovable idiots. Would probably be a little exasperated like "Sweetheart... I love you but please," but would still patiently explain everything to you until you both were on the same page.

M: Also an idiot but on purpose-- you two would have immense fun as M would egg on any idea you came up with and their eyes would light up with pure, unadulterated glee at the exasperated looks on the rest of the team. What are you going to do? Stop them? I think not. C: You're a dumbass but you're my dumbass. A little exasperated at first, but quickly learns to accept it. Would throw hands with anyone who calls MC out on their tomfoolery. MC: *says something dumb* Random Person: Hey uh that's wro-- C: No it's not, shut the hell up.

T: Early in the relationship, they assume you do it to get a reaction out of them... which works every single time.

All you'd have to say is "The sky is green" and wait for Tene to turn red before going into a half-hour long lecture about how it is most-certainly not green.

Later in the relationship they just grow to accept it, keeping an eye out that you don't get yourself into trouble but otherwise Used to It™

RO’s inner thoughts when they’re developing feelings for MC?

It was partially answered here, so I hope you don't mind if I twist it to how they behave during crushing stage?

E: Awkward, blushy-- they're just as willing to help you but there's a touch more eagerness in their actions. You catch them gazing at you from time to time before shyly turning away upon realizing they've been caught. Literally a golden retriever desperate for your attentions.

M: Flirty, but with feelings. You find that the complements become a little more... pointed, the usual quips where they brag about themselves less frequent as they realize you make them feel so giddy and uncertain of themselves for the first time in their life.

C: There is still a distance between you, but of a different sort. They seek you out before anyone else in the group, though suddenly pulling themselves away when they fear they grow too close, their walls threatening to be torn down.

They seek your approval and attention in more subtle ways than E or M, as though they didn't need it in the first place... but they crave it nonetheless.

T: They kind of treat you like an oddity. They don't pinpoint their feelings as of the romantic sort straight away-- inquisitive, seeking you out as though wanting to explore this foreign sensation.

"Are you using magic on me?"

"No, Tene, thats feelings."

"Don't be ridiculous, I don't have those."

The Gods

Spent a while on trying to get the faces as close to how I imagine them; 

Esone - God of the Sun

Laesis - God of Strength

Cyhena - God of the Moon

Ivphine - God of Nature

Nogemis - God of Order

Tenebrosus - God of Chaos

All the gods have the ability to change their appearance, so they can look however you wish for the most part— however these are their ‘preferred’ appearances (the forms they take most often). Regardless of appearance, however, all the gods are non-binary and go by They/Them.

I gave Tene two appearances as they tend to shift around a lot more than their siblings do— they change appearance depending upon their goals whilst the other gods do not feel the need to do the same. I was also really indecisive over which one I liked better

"It smells like you" or "It's so comfy" or in other words: ROs reaction to clothes thief MC?

E:

Well we have learned something new about E... they love seeing you in their clothes. Neat. (Even if you're a male MC wearing Eira's clothes. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)) May take you aside for some... uh... quality time.

M:

They've been wanting SO LONG to dress you in their style and damn it looks SO GOOD on you. "You look so good, sweetness!" Cheers you on, commits the sight to memory.

C:

They're definitely intrigued by this. They don't say much of anything, just kinda... drinking in the sight of you. Let's just say, if you're alone, you aren't going to be rejoining the group for a while 😉

T:

[ internal screaming ] They're not even sure how you got some of their clothing but it's doing things to them they didn't expect to happen and they just can't deal with it all-- "A- yes well--" They'd stammer, trying to regain their composure. "I hope that a uh.. *ahem* a good thing?"
