Ooh headcanons! Casual intimacy? With the whole family! The careful way Wolf touches Cress's shoulder to move past her or quietly get her attention. Cinder plopping her feet in Thorne's lap. Winter twisting a curl of Scarlet's hair. Kai and Jacin in a crowded elevator, and Jacin edging protectively closer. Just little touches--things that show how close they are!
Ahhhhhhhh!!! Your examples are so incredibly adorable all by themselves! I canât even express how much I love the idea of Wolf being so very careful about how he touches Cress. Instinctive little touches like that are such a big part of what makes the Rampion crew more family than friends. Touches and actions likeâŚ
Iko absently playing with the hair of whoever sheâs sitting next to. She weaves delicate braids into Cressâs short locks (or Jacinâs longer ones), then unravels them to leave pretty little waves.
Jacin automatically throwing out an arm to halt any unpleasant jolts for his passengerâoften Kai or Cinder or Winterâwhen the hover brakes unexpectantly.
Thorne gently tucking his flight jacket around Cinderâs shoulders when she falls asleep in the Rampionâs copilot seat after several hoursâ worth of work on the control panelâs wiring.
Scarlet holding out a spoonful of the stew sheâs just made to Cress for tasting, her other hand poised under it to catch any drips.
Winter propping her chin on Kaiâs shoulder while theyâre waiting for Jacin to bring the hover around after yet another exhausting press conference about the bioelectricity inhibitor.
Cress wordlessly handing any stubborn pickle/jam/jelly jars over to Wolf to open for her.
In turn, Wolf wordlessly handing over tangled headphones or knotted shoestrings to Cress because her small fingers excel where his giant hands fall short.Â
Thorne carrying Cinderâs discarded heels (and Cressâs, of course) for her as the Peace Ball winds down and everyoneâs walking back to the palaceâs living space together.
Wolf snagging Thorneâs collar to haul him back before he accidentally steps off a curb wrong or steps in something unpleasant in the barnyard.
Iko holding onto Cinderâs arm for balance as she adjusts the strap on her sandals.
Scarlet dishing up second and third helpings at dinner without being asked because after all the meals theyâve eaten together, she knows whoâs going to want what.
Kai bumping his shoulder against Thorneâs in greeting (and as a wordless âscoot overâ) when he drops onto the couch next to him on movie night.
