Do all of them for Merlin /hj

(If you don't wanna, I can pick specific ones out)

abidienfjdn i actually did end up doing them all bc i do wanna talk about merlin so bad. he’s been living in my brain rent free, i have so many thoughts!

also i hope you’ve had a good day adrian!! and remember to take care! these are under the cut!

🍪 Cookie - What does your f/o call you?

i just know merlin’s a sucker for pet names, especially the really cheesy/cutesy ones. the more sugary sweet they are the better because a part of him loves the reactions he gets. but! he’d have some that are pretty consistent, particularly starting with “my” like my darling, my sweetheart, because they always get sasha to blush.

♣️ Clover - How would your f/o celebrate your birthday? How would you celebrate theirs?

partially loves and gets a bit of an crisis over birthdays in general. human life is so short, but also it’s a day to celebrate moving forward with life and having another wonderful year!

i think on sasha’s (my s/i’s) birthday, he’d prefer to do something private. cuddles in bed, a nice restaurant date and romantic stroll. it’s simple and sweet, but also personable. it gives them time to connect out of busy chaldea life.

on his birthday, i think sasha would prefer to treat him to lots of fun memories and experiences. after all, merlin’s only out of avalon for so long, he might as well enjoy what he’s been seeing in person! but, at the end of the day, being able to come together is merlin’s favorite part.

🖋 Pen - Would your f/o ever give you creative gifts? What creative form would they use? (E.g music, art, writing)

seeing as merlin’s an idol on his down time, i feel that he probably has a few creative talents! his favorite gift he’s gave is the plush fou, because sewing is so much time. and hey, he has quite the knack for it too!

🎤 Sing - Can your f/o sing? Is it a hobby or job? How often do they sing? (Bonus: do they have actual songs? What do you think of them?)

as much as i’d like to say no, i know that mage had pipes on him. he does so as a virtual idol, but also likes to sing little melodies when he and sasha are going to bed. that’s partially bc my dreams where he’s been there have featured on occasion him singing me lullabies >.>

also! he does sing in the stage play, and his va has done a few songs and covers. i’ve found there’s a few romantic songs. as of writing this i am so not well about this guy.

🎵 Music - Excluding any official songs of theirs, do any songs remind you of (you and) your f/o?

for some reason? i’m drawn to say paradise by george ezra. i don’t know why, but it makes me think of how merlin sees sasha as he’s beginning to develop feelings.

✝️ Lord - Are you or your f/o religious? What traditions would you share with each other?

i don’t think either sasha or merlin are particularly religious, but do enjoy sharing little bits about their own cultures with one another. i think mostly sasha loves to share family recipes!

🖤 Phantom - Is your f/o superstitious? Are they interested much in the paranormal or the occult?

considering merlin is the paranormal, you could say he’s interested! but mostly, he does love watching humans.

🌸 Blossom - Who fell in love first? How long did it take for each of you to realise your feelings?

oh merlin fell first! and while sasha is very bad at hiding their feelings and merlin likes to playfully tease, merlin was definitely in denial like sasha was.

sasha doesn’t really realize their feelings (they’re in denial) until merlin refers to himself as they’re partner seriously while on a mission with their master (they’re disguising as a couple it’s totally necessary$ and they internally lose it.

merlin on the other hand, while falling first, is deep in denial. he doesn’t know what love is, he can’t fall in love, he’s an incubus! but as he slowly grows closer and closer to sasha something stirs in him and it’s totally amusement, silly! and then he almost loses sasha and he’s like oh. oh. oh no.

🎰 Thrills - How risky is your f/o? Do they keep things safe or do they gamble their odds at whatever they feel like?

100% likes risk, but also he has foresight so is it really a risk? but in all honesty, merlin doesn’t care much for risking anyone or anything, not that he lets people know that.

🍳 Hungry - What is your f/o's favourite food? Favourite drink?

canonically merlin may not have a favorite food or drink but he does to me!!

emotion wise, his guilty please is happier emotions and memories, though he hates taking them away from people. he does enjoy more bitter flavors as well, as he believes there should be a balance to these sorts of things.

as for regular human food, he’s fond of sweets, particularly with slight bitter notes like dark chocolate and matcha based desserts. his favorite meals happen to be anything that can be eaten as a group.

as for drinks, he’s fond of the tea he and artoria would have together in camelot. he’s found though that he does enjoy a cocktail or two, especially with fun names! and bright colors!

🪽 Angel - How nice is your f/o to others? Are they different around you or act just the same?

he’s struck a balance between playful and polite with people, but also loves to tease those with great reactions, so he comes off as rather mean to people who he’s not close to.

and while he does love to tease those he’s close to like sasha and artoria, he does know there’s a line and respects it. he also is kinder in the sense that he tries to check in with people in his own way, but he’s not always sure if he should interfere, as occasionally he feels he knows too much about people. he’s gotten great at subtle guiding!

and merlin will be the first to admit he turns up the flirt factor with sasha. how can he not when ae always blush at him?

🕸 Widow - Does your f/o like spiders?

wouldn’t say merlin is fond of them, but he doesn’t dislike them, so to speak. pretty neutral, tbh.

🩸 Ouch - How would your f/o react to seeing you hurt (either mild or major)?

if it’s a small scrape, such as sasha falling and getting a scrape he’d probably tease them a bit, but i do think serious injuries would set off a protective bone in merlin. especially if he’s there fighting by their side.

😍 Obsessed - How obsessed is your f/o about you? What lengths would they go for you?

a normal amount of obsessed, i think? he’s navigating his more human emotions still and he knows he wants to stay by sasha’s side forever. maybe he’s looking for a way to sneak them into avalon with if they ever wanted to. but like, if they want a normal human life, he’d never deny them of that.

💔 Mine - How jealous is your f/o?

oooo merlin is a pouty jealous person. he doesn’t get so too often as he knows sasha loves him! but, he doesn’t like it that people would ignore that they say they’re taken. or if they don’t spend enough time with him (this a lot). he’s a needy man, but don’t you love him for it? 🥺

💋 Kiss - How would your f/o react if you gave them a random unexpected kiss?

you know he’s smug, i just know it. would completely ask for more too. but underneath it all he’s so giddy, he loves random affection like this so much! but be aware that sasha will be trapped by him just flopping on top of them asking for more kisses.

🔪 Dangerous - How skilled is your f/o in combat or murder?

in combat yes, but he will not let anyone know. after all he’s just a fragile guy! you wouldn’t put him on the front lines with his b strength right?

🐝 Buzz - Do any of your f/os know each other? (In canon or just a hc/au?)

yes!! tristan and merlin come from the same source, and of course there is fgo. i actually initially thought about using isolde to ship with merlin, but you know maybe there’s enough wife problems within the knights of the round.

⭐️ Star - Gush about your f/o! Or a s/i! Whatever you want!

both? both is good!

first i wanna say to me merlin is genderfluid! so i do end up using both he/she pronouns for her. and also demiro. but more gushy i do love merlin’s playfulness. it brightens things up and also can be really revealing about her. and also him in my dreams. ugh he’s so sweet?? and i’ve had so many?? mainly they’re cuddle sessions, and tbh merlin would be so good to cuddle with.

as for my si for him, their name is sasha! they’re a mage from the mage’s association that carries aer family’s curse so they look quite beastly (horns, claws, fangs, scales, the works so to speak). and funnily enough, ae’s fused with gabrielle-suzanne de villeneuve, who’s considered the first person to write down the beauty and the beast fairy tale. so ae’s a demiservant. and she sorta helps sasha out with self love!

How did you and your partners meet? Any cool stories?

i met adrian in 2022 at helsinki pride! we hung out as friends whenever i visited the capital, but he eventually confessed by mailing me a letter with flowers and a playlist. it was all very cute! they're also a little silly and used to write about me on unsent project. i remember giggling when i searched up my name on there knowing it was written by him. he looks after me. sweetheart <3

i started talking with spencer in the beginning of this year. we were mutuals on twitter and it interacted with me a lot and i was whipped immediately. we added each other on discord and started talking more and i fell for her Hard. we're definitely connected in many ways, i could tell right from the start. everything with spencer just feels natural, it feels right <3 my little fuchs

i love my partners to death, i'd kill for them 🦊🦝

Ohh!! This might end up a little long, sorry dsgjakgjdk How abouttt... Nosferatu, Alondite and Noatun for your Engage insert?? And also Sword of the Creator, Tyrfing, Sol Katti, and Siegmund with Zelkov!

no worries adrian, and thank you for the ask! i hope you’re doing well and please remember to take care!

Nosferatu: What class is your self insert? If applicable, what class do they promote to? What class would you put them in if you had to pick a different one?

like the other royals of engage, their starting class is royal related, as it’s lord! beril gets to promote straight to the grandmaster class because i love tactician classes and i feel it suits them very well.

as for a different class for beril, i think it would be wyvern knight! i just think it fits the brodia aesthetic alongside letting beril use a range of weapons.

Alondite: Does your self insert have any special weapons? If not, is there any particular weapon you associate with them?

i don’t think i gave beril a special weapon, but i do think the levin sword is a tactician classic, plus i just love the design. tome wise, i can see their signature tome being elwind.

Noatun: Give us a fun fact about your self insert.

i’ve mentioned that i based beril and their retainers’s names off of queen beril and nephrite and kunzite from sailor moon, but i’ve also based beril’s color palette off of queen beril a little! so his hair and eye colors match her anime ones!

Sword of the Creator: Let’s talk supports. What are supports like between you and your f/o? What is your highest support rank?

oooo beril and zelkov’s supports are very fluffy, very sweet. i wanted the idea of them opening up to one another and showing them more about themselves. a sort of bonding for someone who’s misunderstood and someone who feels the need to purposefully put up a front. i just like them sharing vulnerability with one another, it says something about their trust.

as for their highest support, it’s s-rank hehe. i know engage doesn’t have s rank supports for anyone who isn’t alear, but i like to think that they have an s support bc i’m writing it.

Tyrfing: Do you have unique battle dialogue or any other unique interactions along those lines? What is it? How is it triggered?

i so badly wish engage had unique meal dialogues like three houses did! because zelkov and beril would definitely have one! i think it would be something about exchanging recipes for meals or him teaching them how to cook, just because i think it’d be really cute.

Sol Katti: What would a paired ending with you and your f/o look like? What do you do together? How is it different from your unpaired endings?

so, zelkov’s unpaired ending is that he opens up an orphanage in elusia, and honestly i think that beril would go and help with the orphanage and they’d have their own family that way. it’s just something i think is very near and dear to him, as well as something so sweet.

as for how it differs from beril’s unpaired ending, beril stays in brodia acting as a tactician and advisor for diamant, making sure he knows there’s a shoulder to lean upon and get rest!

Siegmund: Are there any supports or other character interactions involving your f/o that you particularly like?

i’ve started zelkov’s support chain with citrinne and omg i love it!! she approaches him very seriously and tries to understand his sorrows about his baby bird growing up, and then helps him find a new pursuit to help with the loss. i just really love that she takes him very seriously.

also any of his supports with the younger cast! he’s such a caring person and i think it really shines through with how he tries to care and help them out.

Hey, hey, Fae. Have you thought about Tristan writing poetry for you?? Maybe even composing a song to go with it and performing it for you??

wait wait that’s just so him, i’m just sitting here thinking about this now and! this idea just has me all giggly and flustered bc just imagining it like. i’ve listened to a few songs his va has done and his voice is so pretty, both singing and talking.

but writing poetry? a song? for me? it’s a one hit ko, destroyed via being flustered. he’d probably be so happy about it too and his smile!! i’m going to melt >/////////<

#ajjdjsjxjdj thank you adrian!!!! this made my day!#friend: adrian 🦊#asks #tristan tag tbd #also the fact that his va and arjuna’s va are both vas for an idol duo with very romantic songs?#kills me every time i remember this

⭐️!!

hi adrian, i hope you’re doing well and taking care! and thank you for the ask! i got ningguang for this one.

i’ve been reworking my genshin s/i in my head for a bit because i wasn’t certain i liked them as an adventurer and i’ve decided to take a page out of malice’s book ( @myscaramouche ) and make them an isekai chara instead!

so now rónán is from our world, and they got chucked into the game with their friend group, all of who played genshin. and all of them received powers like the traveler, but based on who they mained (so say friend a mained ei, they would get electro powers). the only caveat being that out of all of them, rónán is the only one who didn’t play the game. so they don’t have any powers/vision belonging to the conventional genshin world. so like how many people think khaenri’ah had an archon with light elemental powers and that the twins are connected to said element, rónán is too!

however, rónán and their friends don’t know this at all so they very much do not let them do any of the adventuring like they end up doing, so they mainly stay within the more populated areas of the places they visit.

and this also leads them to meeting ningguang. because rónán spends so much of their time in liyue helping citizens in their own way, ningguang ends up having them work for her for a brief period of time as an aide, which they excel at. and they end up bantering with her a lot as the two of them work together, and that earns them a bit of admiration from her.

and it’s a sad day when the two have to part, and rónán’s group is now heading to inazuma, but the two end up becoming pen pals and keeping up with each other! and slowly over time their letters take on a romantic tone, and finally once rónán comes back, ningguang formally asks them on a date. and while rónán does keep with their group, they now visit liyue as often as they can to see her!
