Thank you, Megh! 💕
Strap in for AU lad rambles. Because I can't help myself.
2. Can they take care of a plant? What about a pet? What about a child?
Both Molakis and Verne definitely prioritize caring for others over themselves... though they'd probably forget to water plants one too many times, let's be honest. Children become a somewhat touchy subject for them; they start to humor the idea, but both worry that they're not fit for parenthood. Even though they'd be excellent fathers.
3. Ask them to describe their love interest.
Molakis: "A man who wears his kindness on his sleeve and lets compassion gleam in his eyes. Gob never gives up--not on life, not on others, and most importantly, not on himself. How I struck such luck to meet him, I'll never know. He's also got the most wonderful butt."
Verne: "Oh, Charon. He likes to put off a scary, bad-boy front, but really, he's just a giant teddy bear. A family man through and through, he's always putting others before himself. The fact he's still on this earth after everything is a damn blessing."
4. Do they look good in red?
I quickly doodled this so y'all can be the judge. 👌
RNG selected Mr. Gob Verne, so I hope you are ready for some modern AU factoid!
Do they still have any objects from their childhood? What significance does it have to them? What would their reaction be if they lost it?
Possessions from Gob's childhood are... a touchy subject. A lot of it he left behind when he moved out. The associations between those objects and his broken home are too strong; he'd rather just leave them, continue on with a clean slate.
There are very select things, though, that Gob has kept and holds dear to him. All of these are from his mother, sentimental and held to him as dearly as she is. Testaments to their shared struggle and strength. If they were to be lost somehow, Gob would be quite heartbroken at first, but consolable. In the end, they are just objects; in the end, he has his mother, and that's what matters.
🌱- Does this OC have any pets? Do they have any pets they want?
They don't have any, but I can definitely see them having a big, lazy dog. A good pupper that'll take naps with them on the couch and give good snugs when they need it.
🍁- What's this OC's favorite genre of movies/TV shows/books/etc.?
Verne absolutely loves shitty movies. Y'know those at the bottom of Netflix's horror barrel? Yeah, those. And he loves Molakis' reactions to them. Book-wise, he's a sucker for a good mystery novel.
Molakis has learned to love those horrible movies--largely because Gob enjoys them, and those positive feelings can be infectious. Reading is preferred over film, and he prefers military fiction and thrillers.
🌸- What's this OC's favorite and least favorite color?
Verne likes pastels, with his all-time favorite being lavender/purple. He also loves black for the simple fact that his husband looks hella good in it. Least favorite is any form of neon; they're too damn obnoxious.
Molakis' favorites are on the more neutral side--blacks, grays, muted shades of green/blue, etc. Anything too bright, like yellows and cyan, he doesn't care for.
Hope more AU husbands is okay, because they're my comfort as of late...
🌟 Answered here!
🌼- What's your favorite thing about this OC?
Oh man, I love both these lads SO much. It's always hard to believe that these two started as "lol wouldn't it be funny if", and now, here we are! 😭
It's hard to pick just one thing for each of them, because I just love how they have formed to be one another's missing puzzle pieces. That and how they've grown into their own entities, despite being based on canon.
I just hopelessly love them both so much.......
🌳- Does this OC collect anything?
Verne takes great pride in his collection of guitar picks. He didn't start going to concerts until he moved out of his parents' home, so in a way, they serve as a reminder of his freedom from that environment.
Molakis isn't active in collecting much anymore, but he does have a handful of records that he holds dear, namely those that he would listen to with his father before his father's deployment to Alaska.
Since I'm hyperfixated like heck on these Comfort Husbands... it's AU boy time.
🌟- Is this OC good at expressing themselves through words or do they have to use other means?
Neither of them are particularly good with words, just in different ways. Especially with one another, they prefer to express things physically (i.e. reassuring, gentle touches).
Verne easily buckles under pressure--good or bad. He stutters, trips over his words, loses his train of thought. Usually, he'll have to pause and take a moment to calm his nerves, organize his thoughts.
Molakis often ends up falling silent when he just doesn't know how to respond. Far from a social man, his understanding of social cues is lack-luster. If he's able, he prefers to just back out entirely from conversations.
🌈- What does this OC like and dislike about themselves?
Like --
Verne: The general path his life is going: being the photographer for Charon's band, pursuing a college education in a field he's passionate about, making a life with a wonderful dude.
Molakis: His vigilance and determination, namely to not leave his husband alone. Countless times, he has fought for his life--literally so, occasionally--and has prevailed.
Dislike --
Verne: His stuttering. He hates it. Not only does it make him feel like a fool when it occurs, but it also brings back bad memories from childhood--one of the largest root causes.
Molakis: The effects of war, both physical and mental. It takes him a long time to come to proper terms with it all... and even now, there are moments where he truly believes he is a monster.
RNG picked the human AU boyos, Charon Molakis and Gob Verne. I don't think I've talked about their... escapades here before... so this'll be fun. C:<
🔞 under cut
1. Are there any names they like to be called in bed/names they call their partner? Any names they wouldn’t use/can’t stand?
So, as a bit of context... Molakis and Verne have a sub/dom relationship. In that order. Yes, this means Molakis is the submissive.
That being said, Molakis responds the most to pet names when he enters subspace, particularly 'Bear'. Moment that leaves Verne's mouth... man's done for. Verne doesn't expect to be called anything, really, and that's fine with him; however, Molakis does tend to say pet names like 'my beautiful boy' and 'babe'.
No pet name is necessarily off-limits; they just don't try much else outside what works for them.
3. Quickies vs Planned sex—thoughts?
Both prefer proper--though not necessarily planned--sex. They'd each rather be able to fully attend to one another. This doesn't mean quickies are off the table, though. If they happen, they happen, and they'll just make up for any lost time in a later session.
When these boys are intoxicated... whoa boy, they get insatiable. They'll fuck in (clean, closed, and unoccupied) bathroom stalls real fast if they really can't wait.
5. Do they have any really out-of-left-field kinks/fantasies? Maybe even something that they wouldn’t necessarily want to act on but have still thought about?
Neither do. As cliché as it sounds, they're both perfectly content and happy with the kinks and fantasies they act out now. They'd have it no other way. 😊
17. What’s their go-to safe word?
They use the "traffic light" system: 'Green' for keep going/this is goddamn wonderful; 'Yellow' for slow down/be careful doing that; and 'Red' for stop everything.
1. How spontanous are your ocs? Are they quick to change their mind?
2. Someone unfamiliar waves at your oc. How do they react?
Thank ya for the good questions! 🖤
How spontaneous are your OCs? Are they quick to change their mind?
Most of them aren't, with Gail being the absolute least; they always have to plan and like to stick to it. The one who is the most likely to up and change plans on a dime is Esper, usually because there's simply so much on her plate at any given time she has to bounce between--the tasks' priorities sometimes teeter-tooter.
Someone unfamiliar waves at your OC. How do they react?
Gail quietly waves back with a friendly smile, but they don't go out of their way to initiate conversation.
Esper waves back with a less shy of a smile than Gail's, and barring that they aren't clearly hostile, she'll immediately start chatting, checking to see if they need any help.
Molakis just straight ignores it. He's not at all a people person.
Verne does similar to Gail, in that he just smiles and waves back without doing much else.
