Which RO’s find the exhausted and dirty post-battle MC’s attractive, and who thinks they’re gross and demands they take a shower right away?

Thinks MC is attractive: Mina, Will, Nico, and Ara.

Thinks MC is gross: Astrid.

So down bad their opinion camnot be included: Theo and Spencer.

ROs while in relationship reactions to someone inappropriately touching MC and MC just sucker punches the pervert enough to knock em out (me tryna see if they’ll applaud MC lol).

Spencer is joining Astrid in the 'Kicks the person while they're down' club.

Thank you for the ask! It was a lot of fun to make a tier list for this one lol.

how would the ros respond (pre-relationship but after feelings have developed) if a third party said something along the lines of “i’ve seen the way they look at you,” suggesting that mc was interested in them? what about the reverse, i’ve seen the way you look at them?

Mina: "You saw nothing and know nothing." For the first version, she would find it difficult to believe and would need time to accept the fact that MC could have feelings for her.

For the second, she would just threaten the person to keep their silence because she wouldn't want to burden MC with her feelings. Mina believes MC can do better than her.

Will: "Everyone looks at me." For the first version, Will would be his usual cocky and charming self on the outside. Technically he's not wrong, lots of people look up to him and are infatuated with him because of his position and status as a hero. Internally he would be curious and trying to judge what MC's true intentions are.

"I have eyes, and I appreciate good-looking people." He would deflect with a joke and wink for the second version. He would pass off any genuine feelings as a joke.

Ara: "Really?" She would be excited and try to play it cool but she would be practically vibrating on the spot. She would be torn between approaching MC and wanting to respect their privacy because maybe they still need to process their feelings.

For the second, she would blush and hurry away, claiming she has important paperwork to take care of. She doesn't deny it, she just doesn't want to be caught.

Theo: "Me?" He would be in disbelief and then beg the person to double check and make sure. He would be over the moon and thinking of ways to approach MC. (He will not be subtle at all)

Second version, he would sigh and continue to stare at them longingly. The poor person who noticed would then be regaled with why Theo likes MC and how they are the best and how he doesn't know how to ask them out.

Astrid: "I think you're mistaken." Astrid would be skeptical but the seed of doubt has been planted and she will watch MC more carefully. To her, she can't believe someone would have genuine feelings for her so she has to make sure.

Second version, she would retain her cool and composed expression and tell the person that they are mistaken. She would do a great job of deceiving the person but internally she is screaming.

Nico: His face is going on an entire journey. He doesn't know how to feel but he knows that it feels good to have MC look at him. He will need to spiral in his room for a few days with this knowledge.

"We are rivals! What you are seeing is just competitive spirit." He would hiss. He would be insistent that there is nothing to see and that MC and him have a friendly rivalry. A lot of stomping around will ensue and his face will be stained red.

Spencer: They are confirming whether what they said is true and then leaping at the opportunity. Immediately confessing their feelings to MC and trying to lock them down. They won't waste their shot.

"We're just friends! Family even." Nervous laughter follows their response. The last thing they want is to risk their friendship with MC. They can never know if it means potentially losing them.

Little scenes from chapter two

[thesoulforgeorder]

Would the ROs use petnames/nicknames for MC when they get together and what are they 👀

Nico - He isn't one for pet names but he would call MC by a nickname or call them Babe in private. For him, you only call someone by their first name or nickname if you are close to them or being disrespectful.

Astrid - She would call MC love. But only in private! She would be too shy to call them a pet name where others can hear. She just wants MC to know she loves them always.

Will - It is difficult to get him to call MC by their name. He is full of nicknames and pet names. Before you begin a relationship with him he will call you rookie, green foot, kid, duckling but then when you are in a relationship he will change it to darling and babe.

Mina - She calls MC my love or my heart. Like Astrid she only says it in private because she has an image to uphold.

Theo - Every pet name under the sun. MC is not safe from any of them. They will be called sweetheart, honey, love, darling, etc.

Ara - Babe, darling and sweetheart are her favourites to use although she is like Theo and probably would change on a whim what she likes to call MC.

Spencer - Likes to call MC pup or ellie, depending on whether you got the elephant or dog plush during childhood. If you romance Spencer outside the orphan background then it would be nicknames that they think best suit you.

How would the ro’s react to a usually bold mc start to get flustered 

Hey Anon! Here is the answer, hopefully you enjoy.

Nico - He goes on a power trip and tries to fluster MC whenever he can. He will not relent until MC tells him to stop. He would be really happy that MC sees him in that light and it would add a spring to his step for like the next two weeks.

Astrid - She would be curious about the reaction and seek to experiment on what gets the best reactions. She would use her power wisely but like Nico, she would be pleased. Even if she won't show it outright.

Will - Relentless teasing. He would constantly be in MC's personal space and trying to get a reaction. He will constantly wear a shit eating grin because of it too.

Mina - She would be oblivious to MC's reactions at first but when she becomes aware she would find it amusing but not say anything until she has developed feelings for MC. If they are at the stage where both have feelings, she will lightly tease them in private.

Theo - If he had a tail, it would be wagging frantically behind him. He would not say anything because he would hate to embarrass MC but you are damn sure he is tracking everything they react to so he can do it more in the future.

Ara - She wouldn't react outwardly because she would be unsure if MC wants her to but if she sees signs of a crush then she will flirt more and make her interest known. She is not one to stand around and wait.

Spencer - They are in MC's personal space and grinning like a fiend. They would be extra touchy and loving, trying to hint at their feelings. They are too scared to make the first move but damn if they don't want to.

hehe saw this ask on another blog and its so cute! How would the ROs treat an MC who's easy to fluster, but only by them? Like if someone else flirts with MC and calls them cute or something, they just laugh and brush it off, but if it were the RO they get red, shy, and fumble over their words?

Ohh that is a really great question! I gave this quite a bit of thought while on bed rest because I never thought about it before.

Ara - She would take a while to notice it but when she does, she would savour the moments and hold it close to her heart. She wouldn't want to share MC's flustered expression with anyone else; reserving it for only herself. She would relentlessly flirt with them when they are alone.

Nico - He would be incredibly smug, unbearably so. He would make sure to flirt and touch them at any given moment and make sure everyone knows that MC is only like that with him. Watching MC be shy and fumble around him would be like a drug, he wouldn't be able to get enough.

Astrid - She would be curious at first. She would treat it like a science experiment, pushing MC's buttons to see what gets the best reactions. She would be unsure and in denial until she has gathered enough evidence to prove MC likes them and is only like that with her. After she is secretly very pleased but won't say anything, just flirting subtly in private.

Theo - He is as subtle as a brick to the face. He would be right next to MC in blushing and stumbling around. Knowing that MC may have feelings for him too? Nothing is safe around him. He will be walking into and tripping over everyhing while staring at MC being shy and red while thinking how lucky he is.

Mina - She would tease MC for being incredibly easy to read and tell them that they need to practice hiding their emotions. However, she is very happy and bragging to Will about it, even if she would never admit it out loud.

Will - Relentless teasing and flirting follows the discovery. He will not rest until he discovers just how red he can make MC go and what it will take to make them combust. MC will not know peace.

Spencer - Spencer becomes a peacock. Just absolutely flaunting the fact that MC is only that way around them. They would be oozing smugness and would be walking around even more lovestruck than usual. They would also not so subtly tell MC that no one else has ever caught their eye and MC always number one in their heart.
