I am firmly of the belief that once Macaque’s walls are broken down and you and him are established and comfortable with each other then he becomes a power move cuddler in public. He’s got his arm tossed haphazardly around your shoulder or waist as you’re walking or he’s holding your hand. PDA??? What’s that. He’s never heard of it.
He likes to feel like he has some sort of control in a public scenario because he’s always on edge and really doesn’t want to lose you in a crowd (nevermind the fact that his shadows could basically do that for him shh)
the average height of men in the US is 5’9. annabeth has always been tall - she ends up being about 5’9/5’10 - so she probably always thought that she’d end up with someone who’s her height, maybe even shorter than her. i mean, she was taller than percy up until they were 16, and even then he was her height, not taller
then mr. perseus jackson, in classic percy ‘never let them know your next move’ jackson was like “actually no ☝️” and kept on fucking growing.
she probably prepared herself for the probability of being taller than her future man. she might have even loved the idea. and then her man ends up being fucking 6’2
and i am completely convinced that percy ended up being so tall out of pure stubbornness.
well, that, and he was asleep for 6 months, at prime growing age, and was probably horizontal, so gravity wasn’t working against him. genetics probably played a role too. and i do always say i think demigods tend to be taller…
When there are only two characters remaining, they will face off against one another in a week-long poll to determine the victor.
Bye-bye Benny! You brought the drama, you brought the chaos! I want to give a big shout-out to the passionate and lovely Kylo Ren fans who campaigned so hard for their boy. You got him to bronze, and with how divisive Ben/Kylo is as a character, that's really impressive.
Now... without further ado...
This.
Is.
It.
It all comes down to a simple decision. A choice between two men, both of whom gave their lives to bring down The Empire.
Will the winner be Obi-Wan Kenobi?
Or will it be Cassian Andor?
Cast your votes for the last time to decide, once and for all... who is the hottest Star Wars man of all time?
...oh, but remember, this is all just for fun! So don't take it too seriously ;)
in my ideal vision, when they finally get in something resembling a relationship (as adults, they were Not There as teenagers), it's because they both want it, which means they unlock previously forbidden features with each other like sharing a bed instead of a couch (you all know about my weird obsession with skk and couches), but also freely touching.
Dazai is a rather tactile person; my guy is freed after 2 weeks in prison and the first thing he does is dance, poke at, lean/hug and play with the hair of the first non-evil person (a stranger) he meets. Being with Chuuya, he constantly finds himself in Chuuya's bubble, and indulges in ways he usually can't with others. That often means direct skin contact, not even with ulterior motives, but really just because he is allowed and he wants to.
Chuuya on the other hand has never done something gently ever: he is fierce, he cares and loves intensely, and he never lets go, but he barely knows the concept of a reassuring gesture (working on it). Dazai being in his bubble wouldn't bother him at all by that point, but the handsy part? it's awkward. needs some getting used to. It's a learning opportunity.
And when Chuuya gets used to it and finally makes a move to return the favour? it's Dazai who short-circuits.
genshin bfs who give you the full royalty treatment:
you want something in particular for lunch? they're already throwing on their shoes to go buy it for you.
had a long day? he's going to smother you in affection and praise until he's the only thing you can think of.
he's making you breakfast in the morning and it's always your favourite or what you were craving the day before (because he's good at remembering all the little things you mention).
and he's only this way for you— no one else would ever get to know such a sappy side to him. he is probably well respected in his nation: someone of high status who's been treated so well his whole life, so he knows exactly how to pamper you. ≧◡≦
the awkward "anywhooo" is almost funnier to me than the zaddy shit. like stede would say that shit while being obviously flirted with in front of people
