The grand opening banner was silken when the sunshine hit it, dyeing the lilac fabric of it pink in the afternoon. It was gorgeous and unmistakable from even across the road at the local tattoo parlour.

He didn’t get a lot of business. None of the good kind, anyway so mostly, Ryoken served the tourists who weren’t too drunk. Besides, attitudes towards body art were beginning to change, which made sense since Den City was at the forefront of imported individualism, electric entertainment, and plenty more modern things.

It wasn’t a steady income but it was enough to allow Ryoken to pay the rent and that was made even easier considering that he slept on the futon in his own attic. So, he had plenty of time to do nothing at all.

Like admire the newly opened florist from across the road.

The shop it was prior had closed up when the ma and pa had decided to retire and move in with their children, or so Ryoken had heard. It had actually been empty from before he had opened up shop with his benignly controversial tattoo parlour.

The glass panes in the window was slick and shiny, well polished and with colourful bushels of seasonally appropriate selections and bouquets dutifully placed in buckets outside in the morning then brought inside in the afternoon. All by a worker that Ryoken had only glimpsed: a quaff of silver hair there, the swing of the straps of a pastel green apron there.

There was some kind of grand opening sale and Mother’s Day was at the end of the week. Ryoken didn’t have a mother in his life so he didn’t really have an excuse to go and poke his nose in. He really wanted to, however. It was such a nice and cosy shop from the outside looking in, so he would like to see what it looked like from the otherside of the threshold which had a jingly bell pinned to it.

But Ryoken needed an excuse to go inside.

And he didn’t really have one.

At least not until Takeru and Yusaku gave him one.

“Dude. Are you seriously pining for that guy from across the street?” Takeru asked, unamused as he rocked to and fro on his bicycle, moving barest centimetres on the pavement whilst Yusaku fussed behind him.

Takeru’s current side hustle was Yusaku’s old one: that was food delivery. He worked at Yusaku’s previous job which was the counter of a hot dog stand. Yusaku had worked there diligently all through high school and its earnings not only put him through high school and university but helped him open up his IT department. Takeru was hoping to bottle some of that magic for his main gig which was helping out at his family’s dojo.

“You’ve never even talked to him.” Takeru pointed out, provoking.

“Yeah, well, I’ll figure it out.” Ryoken said.

He crossed his arms, flustered. He leaned against the threshold of his tattoo parlour, which was next door to Yusaku’s IT department. It also sold an eclectic and curated selection of electronics and computer accessories. Video games, too. It was kind of a nerd’s paradise. Not really Takeru’s scene, unless he was bringing Yusaku home some hot dogs as Cafe Nagi’s were still his favourite. Not just favourite hot dog but favourite anything in the domain of fast food.

Ryoken liked them too and Yusaku was typically nice enough to order extra for him. Ryoken’s Father was right. There was a lot more money to be made in STEM than in the arts, especially tattooing but oh well. Ryoken had stuck to his guns and look how far it had gotten him.

His own small business, his own flat, and his own pathetic stint as a loverboy as he crushed on the florist from across the road.

It was honestly pathetic how soppy Ryoken was for someone he had only seen a handful of times in the past week. So far it seemed, the florist was enjoying a modest business, one which would always go on as the demand for flowers was far higher than anything else. His business was not only pretty from the premise but pretty in the premises too, stainless pale blue tiles lined the outside walls and the flowers were bouncy and vivacious, too.

All whilst underneath the name of the business captured the imagination: Sunavalon. What did it mean? Ryoken wasn’t sure but it rolled off the tongue, it stood out on paper. It looked handsome in serifed writing on stilts above that grand opening banner.

“Do you even know his name?” Takeru asked.

“No…” Ryoken confessed. Alas, the name Sunavalon was all he knew of the florist. But that was more than enough to cause a crush to blossom from the other side of the asphalt.

“Argh.” Takeru complained.

“Thanks for the lunch, Takeru.” Yusaku piped up. He had finally gone through all the foiled containers and brown paper bags that Takeru was hauling around in his insulated bags.

“You're welcome.” Takeru replied.

“But you should really do something about this whole thing.” yusaku said as he turned his attention to Ryoken, handing him a styrofoam container with his hot dog in it. “Like, surely you can come up with some way to at least introduce yourself. Offer him lunch.”

“I can’t just offer him lunch.” Ryoken said.

“Yeah, we know.” Takeru snickered.

Ryoken glared at Takeru. Money was tight! And Yusaku was a good guy, which was why Ryoken was getting this free shout once a blue moon. Fun fact, blue moons were quite weekly on this little street of littler businesses in this part of Den City.

Ryoken happily accepted his hot dog. Which gave Yusaku the free hand to enjoy his own.

“Brain food. Surely you have some free option of casually introducing yourself since we’re well past the just being neighbourly phase.” Yusaku said. “Like, don’t you have a sketch pad? A camera? Something, anything? Walk in there, say you’ve got a client looking for a quote over the phone on how good you can do flowers, specifically the ones she saw over there.” Yusaku shrugged as he then opened his container and took a bite from his hot dog. “Or something. I don’t really care.”

“That was a sure lotta words for someone who doesn’t care.” Takeru rolled his eyes.

“And totally genius.” Ryoken beamed.

“I’ve been told.” Yusaku smugly replied.

“Anyways, I better get going, I still have plenty more rounds to go and beating the pavement sure beats whatever trainwreck this is.” Takeru complained.

Yusaku laughed at Takeru’s expense. He leaned in and pecked Takeru’s cheek, wishing him good luck on the rest of his rounds. His phone was already blowing up with more orders, more places to go to pick up and even more places to go drop off. Ryoken really didn’t envy him. Even if he was fuming because of him.

Still, Yusaku’s idea was great.

Ryoken scarfed down the rest of his hot dog as he went back inside and Yusaku did the same. Especially since he actually had customers: a little old lady in search of a G-rated video game for her grandson’s birthday. Ryoken, meanwhile, was embarrassingly all too free to ramsack his own business in search of a good old fashioned sketch pad.

He found a good one - with only some of his best portfolio inside, just in case he had to impress - and sharpened one of his trust 2B pencils. After that, he manned up. He was going to find out more about the Sunavalon Florist or so help him as the crush he had may just crush him from the lack of insight into just who he was.

After lunch, and at a totally casual two-thirty-four on the clock, and have careful counting of who was coming and going through the florist’s doors, Ryoken put a back in five minutes sign on his own then meandered over. He wanted to seem interested but not obsessive. Cool and calm and he had a close call just crossing the road.

The toe of his jogger stubbed on a loose piece of gravel but Ryoken hardly stumbled. He recovered just fine. He exhaled and pushed his fringe out of the way as he finally got to the door. He pushed on it and was immediately met with a breath of air conditioning which stood out to him as both freshly installed and perfectly temperate.

“Welcome to Sunavalon.” a voice chimed out out of sync with the tolling of the bells.

Ryoken felt his heart skip a beat. He glanced around the room. This place was simple. Not extravagant but not under-decorated, either. The selections of decor were subtle and straight out of a catalogue for furniture under ten thousand yen and likely the same catalogue was all so congruent with one another. A lounge to the side, a mirror above it, a framed artwork on the other side of the wall. Then all the flowers, of course.

“Hey.” Ryoken said, after he cleared his throat.

The owner of the voice made himself known and was, naturally, the owner of the store. He came from behind the computer, totally swish, likely from Yusaku’s shop, Ryoken was willing to bet, Ryoken could swear he heard a choir of cherubs as his movement was in heavenly slow-mo.

“How may I help you?” he said and he placed his hand, elegant like a pianist’s, over his heart. “I am the proprietor of this florist, my name is Kinoshita Shinbou. You may call me Shinobu.”

Ryoken hazarded a smile. What a handsome name for a handsome man, he looked even better up close and in somewhat fluorescent light than in whatever shafts of sunlight he happened in during his few outings onto the street through the day. He had clay silver hair and amazingly blue eyes, he was somewhat tall and dressed quite prim in a three-piece suit accessorised by a pastel green apron with a small tulip on the chest.

“Yeah, hi, good to meet you,” Ryoken rambled through his words, “I’m Ryoken, I work across the road at the tattoo parlour.”

He figured mentioning his job would be a good way to know off the bat if his delusions of amour would be shattered or not but surprisingly, Shinobu merely smiled politely.

“Good to meet you also,” he said, “I’ve seen you every so often… What brings you in?”

Ryoken felt his words clog up in his throat. And then his mouth. And then he had to imagine Yusaku elbowing him in the ribs just to spit it out but there was just something so splendid about the florist in front of him. As though he were a dryad, one of his flowers rather than a person. He just had that effect on Ryoken.

“I, uh, need to borrow a reference, if you don’t mind.” Ryoken said in the poorest way possible. He could tell because Shinobu quirked a brow in mild confusion. “What I mean is, I’ve got a lady who wants me to tattoo a flower on her and she only wants to follow through on my quote if I can show her some more flowers in my portfolio so if you don’t mind, I’d like to do some sketching here. I won’t take long. Promise.”

Shinobu’s eyes lit up, “I don’t mind at all. Can I see your art?” he asked.

“Yeah, sure, have a look.” Ryoken smiled.

He was really glad he had made the point of choosing his most Instagram perfect aesthetic sketchbook to bring with him. Good quality paper, a funky white, orange, green, and grey geometric pattern on the cover, and some of his best drawings on the inside, too. He smirked as he handed it over and let Shinobu flick through it.

His eyes went wider and wider and bluer and bluer with how impressed he was with Ryoken’s work. He then paused on something towards the middle end of it, before the blank pages unravelled. He looked over it extra lovingly.

“I like this one, I think it's my favourite.” Shinobu said as he handed Ryoken’s sketch book back to him so he could have a look at it and lo and behold.

Shinobu had picked out a sketch to admire and choose as a favourite that totally encapsulated the ethereal vibe he gave off. On this particular page was something which was somewhat of a departure of Ryoken’s usual artworks of edgy doom and gloom, though not entirely. It depicted a Tinkerbell-esque fairy posed upon a dragon’s skull.

“You like this one best?” Ryokan asked to confirm, putting on some faux accent of modesty.

“Yes, I do.” Shinobu said with a smile. “But I agree with your client. Your flowers could use more accuracy so please, feel free to reference to your heart’s content on my shop floor.”

Ryoken felt as though he had been shot through the heart with an arrow. Not just Cupid’s but actual modesty’s too. He more than noticed the criticism that Shinobu had slipped into the conversation.

“Thanks, I appreciate it, any pointers you can give would be great.” Ryoken said.

“Hm… You should be mindful of Fibonacci’s number then, all flowers grow according to it. Assuming they aren’t fascinated.” Shinobu replied.

“Fascinated?” Ryoken echoed, he wasn’t familiar with this term. He blinked.

“Here, let me show you.” Shinobu said, more than excited, especially now he could show off not just his showroom but his passion, too.

Ryoken was enthralled by the delight which came to life in Shinobu’s voice and so, was more than drawn in when Shinobu showed him something from his private, not for sale collection. Ryoken had no idea that there was a whole world of floral body horror he had been previously unaware of until now.

Shinobu held a little, potted plant in his hands: the pot was pretty and ceramic, the succulent that was inside was anything but. It was abnormal and over exaggerated, like one of those doodles Ryoken did where he never lifted the pencil off the paper. This succulent just went on and on and on with all the parts of its plant. It was spiky and colourful.

“Do you like it?” Shinobu asked.

“Yeah, it's really cool.” Ryoken said.

Shinobu smiled as he let Ryoken hold it, too. The ceramic pot was cool on the inside of Ryoken’s palm. Holding it, he was able to see it from different angles and admire it better.

Shinobu watched, humbled, as Ryoken was excited over his fascinated succulent, “That’s from my personal collection but if you like it so much, why don’t you keep it?”

“No way, I couldn’t take it.” Ryoken said, straightening up at the offer as it was like a jolt of electricity to his system.

“I insist.” Shinobu said.

“I have the complete opposite of a green thumb.” Ryoken said. “I can barely keep myself alive on two-minute noodles.”

“Succulents are a good starter plant and, if you like, I can drop in across the road and see how it's going.” Shinobu suggested, and with a bat of his eyelashes no less.

Ryoken felt his heart stop and then, as he processed Shinobu’s flirtation. Then, when he did, his heart restarted and bounded straight into his throat. Ryoken felt his temperature rise as a wonky smile crossed his face from left to right.

“I’d appreciate that.” he managed to utter out.

“I’ll see you when I can.” Shinobu said and as though on cue, the bell to his own store jingled.

He actually had customers. Congratulations to the newcomer to the street. So, Ryoken politely backed out so Shinobu could get back to work. The same of which couldn’t be said about Ryoken. He took down his “back in five minutes” sign and didn’t get any visitors over the course of the rest of the afternoon. Though, he did notice a couple click-ons and click-offs on his website and emptied his spam folder.

All whilst the fascinated succulent in its white-and-blue ceramic pot now sat on his counter, just above his two-monitor computer setup complete with an RGB keyboard and wireless mouse. It looked good there. Ryoken liked it there and the next day, when Shinobu visited, he liked it there, too.

He visited early. Literally one minute after Ryoken flipped his close sign to open. If it weren’t endearing, it would have been freaky. Probably. Seriously, he came in at exactly 10:01.

“Good morning.” Shinobu said.

“Good morning.” Ryoken replied.

He smiled, welcomingly, but was a little bit unsettled by Shinobu’s punctuality. It was a bit too much but worth it very quickly as Shinobu admired the decor of Ryoken’s tattoo parlour. The glowy neon tubing on the walls, the cracks in the tiles, the state of the art equipment and of course: the pot plant on the counter.

Ryoken had, of course, placed it on a throne of honour, on the high counter which protected his two computer screens and cash register. It looked good there. Even if the Greek blue and white pot clashed with his edgier aesthetic that he was trying to theme his parlour around. At least the way it dripped and drooped was vaguely intestine shaped.

“Glad to see the little one settling in.” Shinobu chuckled.

“It’s been getting plenty of compliments.” Ryoken agreed.

He lifted himself slightly out of his red and black gamer chair to peek over the counter. He kept stealing glances at Shinobu but wanted to seem fun and casual, and like he actually had work. And Ryoken did. He was just tidying up some overnight bookings on his calendar, to chase up potential clients, make sure they hadn’t been drunk or similar when booking as these scattered bookings were timestamped for around midnight the night before.

“Glad to hear it.” Shinobu said.

The light chatter went quiet after that. Ryoken wasn’t sure what to say next. They had kind of done most of the small talk available to them. Was it too late to mention the weather? It was just as temperate as normal, maybe going to rain this afternoon… Or should they talk about their work? Ryoken wasn’t sure as he awkwardly tapped on keys on his keyboard. Mostly his back space since he was running out of things to be doing on his computer before it just turned into pretending.

And Shinobu must have sensed that Ryoken was doing that just: pretending to work.

He peered over the counter and looked down at Ryoken and Ryoken was taken aback once more by how pretty the florist was. He had big blue eyes which could have been straight out of one of those creepy porcelain doll’s faces and quaffed silver hair.

Ryoken felt his heart seize with his crush. There was so much that he didn’t know about the proprietor of the Sunavalon Florist, Mister Shinobu Kinoshita and he really wanted to change that. Their eyes met and Ryoken really, truly felt a spark. A mutual one. Shinobu smiled shyly and Ryoken blurted it out.

“Do you want to meet-up during off-work hours sometime?” Ryoken asked. “I know a good cafe around here, with a view of the sea, wanna go there on Sunday?”

“Sunday?” Shinobu echoed, flattered and his face going pink.

Ryoken nodded. His breath felt tight in his chest as his palms sweated. He did it. He really did it. He asked Shinobu on a date.

“This Sunday?” Shinobu prompted to clarify.

“Yes, this Sunday.” Ryoken replied.

“It's Mother’s Day this Sunday, I’m going to be busy all day.” Shinobu laughed. He turned shy, looked away. “And it's a special day for me regardless, I’m afraid I couldn’t anyway…”

“Oh…” Ryoken said.

Well. He learned something new about Shinobu. Mother’s Day was important. He wondered why. Then again, Ryoken felt like a fool for not realising that the florist would be busy all day on Mother's Day, a popular event for bouquets. He was a bigger fool for forgetting, despite the banners and buzz. Ryoken stopped himself from groaning at his own expense and try to refresh his thoughts by licking his lips.

“What about Saturday?” Ryoken suggested.

“This Saturday?” Shinobu echoed, his tone of voice turning playful as he looked at Ryoken once more.

“Yes, this Saturday.” Ryoken smiled.

“I would love to join you for coffee then.” Shinobu demurely replied.

“Then it's a date.” Ryoken said.

“I’ll look forward to it.” Shinobu added.

He reached up and traced his finger around the edge of the pot plant. He avoided the pricks of the succulent and Ryoken noticed. He was going to look forward to their coffee date on Saturday, too. For now, they both had work to do.

What if I want the entire OTP thing for Jaina/Jag?

who in your otp:

drives when they go on road trips? do they switch at the halfway point? does one drive there and the other drive back?

Jaina prefers to be in the pilot's seat as much as possible when they travel but she will let him share the duty on long trips.

looks over the menu for fifteen minutes before ordering the same thing they order EVERYWHERE they go? does the other half of your ship get annoyed by this, or do they find it endearing

I think they both are willing to try new things but if one has a regular it might be Jag, since I can see him being the type who knows what he likes at a particular restaurant and defaulting to it when he’s busy thinking about other things.

is more likely to get arrested?

Oh, it’s absolutely Jaina. 100%. She’s the one who might start a fight or break a law.

is afraid of rollercoasters? does the other half of your ship try and convince them to face the fear, or do they take a softer approach and not push them at all?

I don’t think either one is scared of that sort of thing. Too many years piloting fighters in wars for a thrill ride to genuinely scare them.

shows up at home with a dog unannounced despite the fact they’ve already got three/four/however many pets?

If it was one of them, it would probably be Jaina simply because she’s the more impulsive one but she knows she has too much going on for pets, and so does he, so realistically neither one is likely to do this.

demands that they do date night? does the other person complain or do they go with it just to see the excited look on their partners face?

Hmmm, 50/50 split here because there are times that each of them gets caught up in whatever is happening in life at the moment and forgets to take time for themselves, so the other one might ask for a date night together to break that routine.Neither one complains though. They are both usually more than happy for a reason to spend time together.

is the clumsy one whose always tripping up flights of stairs or over their own feet? does it stress the other half of your ship out or do they find it hilarious?

They’re both pretty graceful, but Jaina has the Force to help her there. He might be the one more likely to simply because she has that advantage, but if she didn’t she would 100% be the one tripping over her own feet. It definitely doesn’t stress them out, I could easily see him getting a laugh out of the rare occasions she stumbles and vice versa.

picks the music when they’re in the car? does the other complain about their taste in music?

Jaina picks, both because I can see him being the type who doesn’t need the background noise and because he’s happy to make her happy with small things like that.

insists on paying for everything when they’re out? do they fight about it?

Generally, he does, but by now they're married so it’s mutual funds for them as a couple, I’m sure. Jaina doesn’t complain though. She generally doesn’t carry a lot of credits on her because... Jedi.

is the one to quietly suggest they get high together for the first time? how does the other half of your ship react?

I honestly can’t see either of them getting high casually? TBH if anyone it was probably Zekk, and half as a joke, suggesting that they both need to relax lol.

is secretly terrified of horror movies and yet watches them all the time bc its something the other half of your ship loves?

Jaina’s probably the one secretly sacred (or more made anxious, really) by those kinds of things. I don’t know that he’d LOVE them though, doens’t seem his style.

CUT FOR LONG POST

talks in their sleep? does their partner record it and call them out, or not tell them and keep it as a secret so they can keep enjoying it?

Jaina, though rarely, and usually if she’s talking in her sleep its because she’s having a bad dream so he doesn't record it to tease her with later, but tries to comfort her. On the occasions that she’s saying cute things because she had a good dream he probably keeps it to himself as a secret enjoyment.

brings up the conversation of marriage + babies? how does the conversation go?

Jag definitely brought up both first, and not because she wasn’t into it but because he just tends to say what he’s thinking about those sorts of things when he’s sure about what he wants. Both went reasonably well. She was surprised but more than happy to venture into both of those things with him.

has to pull the other back by their back of their sweater when they try and do something stupid in public?

100% Jaina lol. More times than either of them would like to admit.

is more likely to pick the other up from the airport with an obnoxiously large cardboard sign? what does the sign say?

Also Jaina, with very silly, mushy messages about how long he’s been gone on them.

tries to cook a meal and accidentally almost burns the house down?

Maybe Jaina? She CAN cook, btu she’s not incredible at it and can get distracted by things, whereas he’s more disciplined and is less likely to forget something is on the stove.

deliberately makes a squeaky chair squeak until the other person flips out?

Jaina, when she wants hs attention, and before they were married. This is teens/early 20′s Jaina in a big way when he is working too hard and she wants him to stop and come to be with her.

falls asleep no matter what position they’re in + needs to be carried to bed?

Jaina, though honestly, wartime taught them both to pretty much fall asleep anywhere they could get a quick rest in. She just never really turned that habit off when wars ended and will still sometimes crash in whatever chair she’s sitting in or what have you and he’s good enough to pick her up and put her in bed if he can without waking her.

is the little spoon when they cuddle?

Either. Easier for it to be Jaina of course, but she’s not above wrapping her tiny self around him if he happens to have his back to her in bed. But mostly it’s her, because she likes to snuggle in against his chest and have his warmth surrounding her.

hates thunderstorms and needs to be comforted for the duration?

Neither, tbh she kind of loves them.

brings the other breakfast in bed? is it a proper cooked breakfast - or just an old muffin?

Either! Jaina is probably more the type to go get muffins and bring them t him in bed with his caf, and he’s probably more the type to dedicate some time to cooking for her, but she isn’t huge on breakfast so she’d be equally happy with caf and a muffin herself.

convinces the other to go on a hike? do they love it, or are they absolutely miserable?

Weirdly this is apparently Jaina, if their honeymoon is any indication. But she had a goal in mind. If it’s more for casual exercise I can see it being Jag more often. I think she likes the excuse for them to spend time together more than the actual act of hiking and it’s probably the same for him.

can never admit they’re wrong?

Absolutely Jaina. She’s stubborn and likes to stick to her guns too long when she’s wrong.

lets the dog sleep on the bed when the other isn’t paying attention?

I don’t know if either of them would?? Jaina doesn’t want to have to clean the sheets and Jag is probably too disciplined to let a pet run wild over the house.

uses emojis in replace of words? does it drive the other person insane?

Jaina, maybe, and definitely ironically and for the purpose of making him shake his head at her, which he does but probably also secretly finds it cute.

who decorates their house? does the other come home and blink at all the pastel pink and force a smile despite how much they hate it?

I think he would let Jaina decorate, though neither of them is likely to fill the house with pink or ornate things etc. They both have a reasonably minimal aesthetic

is more likely to get into a fight to defend the other?

Battle couple so... both. Jaina’s more likely to initiate it though, whereas Jag probably mostly jumps in to defend after it’s started.

is constantly spewing random facts about absolutely anything and everything? does it annoy the other person or do they find it all interesting?

Mmmm, that’s Jag, probably talking about military strategy lol. Probably Thrawn. Jaina doesn’t particualrly share the interest but she does find his enthusiasm endearing so she supports it.

is the lovey dovey drunk?

For sure Jaina is a lovey drunk, but I can also see him being a soft drunk, wanting to snuggle with her and stuff. But Jaina definitely is.

laughs at their own jokes? does the other laugh at the joke… or at their partner?

Jaina again, and he definitely smiles along.

is competitive about EVERYTHING?

Both. They like to challenge one another and always have since they were kids.

apologises first when they have a fight?

Even split again. Maybe leans a bit in Jag’s favor only because Jaina is a little more stubborn, but she’s also tired of wasting time on arguments about things that don’t matter really.

makes the other a flower crown? does the other wear it without complaint or beg not to be embarrassed?

Somehow I can’t see either one making a flower crown???

is more likely to put their fist through a wall when they’re angry?

Jaina. She’s the spitfire.

sends the other memes despite the fact they’re laying in bed next to each other?

Jaina. SHe probably got that from years of Jacen’s bad jokes.

wears the others clothes the most?

He couldn’t fit in her clothes if he tried, but she steals his all the damn time.

pranks the other on a near constant basis? how does the other react?

I don’t think either is prone to pranking the other honestly.

comes up with obnoxiously sappy pet names for the other just to watch them roll their eyes?

Oh, I can see this being both of them, trying to see if they can get the other one to make a face about it, kind of a game and challenge.

forgets their anniversary?

Neither. Jaina maybe would be the more likely but she will never allow herself to and he’s too organized to miss a big date like that.

is impulsive and makes big choices for them without stopping to think through what it all means?

Jaina, absolutely. He’s regimented and thinks things through before he acts and Jaina runs on pure instinct half the time. She tries not to make life-changing decisions without him though because they are partners and that’s a shitty thing to do to someone you love.

writes cute messages for the other on the bathroom mirror when they have a shower?

Aww I wanna say Jaina but actually... maybe Jag? Just because his sweetness is subtle like that and on the rare occasion they aren’t in the sanisteam together I can see it...

has to do the dishes because the other gags any time they stick thier hands in the water?

Why do I feel like Jaina is the one grossed out by dirty sink water???

jumps into the pool without testing the temperature, and who dips their toes in first?

Jaina jumps, Jag looks before he leaps. This is literally their entire personality in one question lol.

tries to kill bugs in the house… and which one stops them and gets the bug out of the house alive and well?

I’d imagine both might equally be willing to bug kill if needed, but Jaina has probably started to shoo them outside when she can since the whole Dark Nest bs. Feels a little wrong killing bugs now.

can speak a second/third/forth language and uses it to annoy the other when they’re fighting?

Both speak more than one, but I think Jaina speaks more than he does and probably does occasionally pester him with that skill.

says i love you first? does the other immediately say it back?

He said it first because, again, when he knows he feels something he doesn’t hide it. She did say it back though, even if she was much more nervous about declaring such a thing.

wins when they arm wrestle?

If it’s purely a muscle contest Jag wins, but Jaina has the Force, so...

gets caught singing some old, corny one direction song to themselves?

Either one maybe, but I love the idea of Jag occasionally singing some song from the holos when he was a kid idly every once in a while and Jaina sitting back and listening with a grin on her face but never pointing out that he does it so he can’t learn to stop himself.

is forever forcing the other to take selfies with them? does the other person complain every time?

MMMM neither feels like a selfie person to me? They get too many pictures taken by the press lol

shows up at the others house with chinese food + a six pack of beer when they’re having a bad day?

Considering ‘Chinese food and beer” that reads like Jaina. But he’d do it for her, just with probably more refined choices lol.

sends the cheesy good morning/night texts?

They both do.

can never admit that they were wrong?

They both are pretty stubborn but this is more Jaina probably. He’s more willing to admit if he wasn’t right.

suggests they send out a christmas card together? does the other go for it, or question when they turned into old people?

I feel like he’d be the one to suggest it, because it’s a sort of formal thing to do at the holiday season and would be polite to send to mutual connections. Jaina goes with it, but with some teasing.

is a morning person and who pulls the covers up over their head and begs for five more minutes?

He’s more the morning person. Jaina would stay in bed if she could.

is constantly insisting they won’t need a jacket before they go out… and then has to steal the others when they get cold?

Also Jaina, lbr

is a smoker and has to deal with the other forever showing them gross photos to try and convince them to quit?

Neither.

decides they need to go on a health binge and throws out all the sugary food in the house? how does the other react?

If anyone did it would be Jag, but I think they both like their little vices.

holds all the important documents when they’re travelling? why?

Jag probably, simply because he’s the better organized of the two.

hates flying? how does the other help them relax before/during/after a flight?

They both love flying, but Jaina doesn’t love being a passenger in flight.

is more likely to suggest a lil fool around in the bathrooms at a club? how does the other react?

Oooooo, this is both of them at varying times. Jaina’s more blunt about suggesting it but he’s just as likely to pull her away.

plans a night of boardgames for date night, and who plans a romantic dinner at a fancy restaurant?

Jaina probably leans towards the boardgames slightly, and Jag towards the romantic dinner? But this is pretty switachable I think.

cries watching the news?

Neither. Jag mostly takes the news with a straight face, and if there’s an emotional reaction it’s probably Jaina yelling at them about how they’re idiots.

teases the other one for having a crush on them… despite the fact they’ve been dating for a year?

Both. Absolutely both.

belives in aliens?

I mean... it’s Star Wars. Aliens exist lol

is constantly leaving the lights on in every room in the house?

Probably Jaina, though not often.

rocks the seat on the ferris wheel?

Who is the reckless one here? Oh, right, it’s Jaina.

is a terrible liar?

Neither one is good tbh. Jag’s good at diplomatic speech though, where Jaina just doesn’t bother trying to hide what she means to say. But she can lie if she has to, to anyone else. Jag can see through her.

is always reading the other their star sign despite the fact they don’t believe in any of it?

MM he’s not the type to and she couldn’t care less about that.

who panics when mecury goes into retrograde?

Neither

insists they watch documentaries to broaden their knowledge?

This is Jag, lrbh.

is constantly renovating part of their house but not finishing one thing before moving on to the next?

Jaina, maybe. Three projects going at once.

uses all the hot water?

Her probably, but rarely.

is the shower person? whose the bath person?

They both probably default to showers but Jaina does LIKE a bath if she can get one.

is most likely to be unfaithful?

No no no look neither of them would cheat, sorry

bonus questions:

what is your otps song?

Up in our bedroom after the war - Stars

do their families approve of the relationship? why/why not?

Generally yes. They’ve had 20 years to get used to the idea by now. They two work together in ways they don’t with other people and there’s no denying it after all this time.

whose friends do they hang out with more?

I feel like they have a very small group of friends and a lot of cross over at this stage in life and that’s who they spend their time with, so it’s neither her friends nor his, but THEIRS. Also a lot of them were her friends first probably, but he’s come to be friends with them too?

what do they do on their first date? did they have a first date, or did they just sort of… start dating?

They were definitely the just “start dating” pair. It’s hard to have a first date mid-war. Their early dates consisted of meals in the private Twin Suns mess when the other pilots weren’t there and freeing up time to spend on one of their quarters.

what is their favorite way to spend the holidays? do they go to one of their families houses? or do they create their own tradition by staying in bed listening to christmas music and getting drunk?

Jaina annoyingly decorates and puts on Lifeday music a little too early, they visit both families if they can, because it’s one of the rare times they’re all able to spare some time to.

what do they name their dog? do the give it a super boring name like allen - or do they name it something like bubblegum princess?

They don’t get enough time for pets, but I feel like they would give one a silly name if they had one.

how do they handle emergencies? does one of them crack under the pressure - or do they bicker because they both need to be in control?

They work exceedingly well in a crisis, having had plenty of life or death situations together by now. They fall into a routine of letting the one with more knowledge take the lead and dealing with it quickly and efficiently.

how did they meet? were they immediately drawn to each other?

Mid war, surprise surprise. They were definitely both immediately drawn together and have always been, like magnets. They had a little sassy rivalry at first but pretty immediately were interested in one another.

what do they fight about the most? how do they resolve their fights?

Hmm, probably about work things, and they’ve come to the agreement that if it’s a serious matter they just drop it because their duties will sometimes conflict and they have to make things work for them despite that. Usually, they just concede and give in to cuddling together instead of talking about the thing that is currently not meshing.

(I’m gonna go with my personal favs bc they usually end up with few notes so pls check them out if ur reading this?)

to keep you warm - victuuri

The sky around the faraway glaciers was greying and soon the sun would peek from behind them to drown the world with light. Standing at his side, Yuuri pressed their shoulders together. His warmth seeped into Victor, slow and careful, mindful of his melting, and Victor in turn pulled the winds closer around them, locking them in a cold whirl of crisp air.

Together, they watched the new day rise.

oh ye of so little faith - miyusawa

He'd never thought this was possible, he'd never believed. But Eijun... He always knew. He always knew that one day, that this day would come.

Still smiling, Kazuya allowed Eijun to lean in and press a kiss to his lips this time. And happiness never tasted sweeter.

One shot - miyusawa

Eijun pulled the trigger.

The gun recoiled, numbing his hand... and his heart.

You could have loved me when you had the chance - oihina

"Goodbye, Tooru."

He picked his bags and walked away, leaving the man he loved behind on the platform. He didn't look back, and there was no need to. Because this time Tooru didn't come after him either.

And as the wide doors slid shut behind him, the train starting to move and slowly gaining speed, he sagged against the wall, the sobs wrecking his body, and Shouyou was sure that he would never come after him again.

Dressed like a daydream - bokuhina

He scooped up Hinata into his arms, held him close, and while they were still both breathless, pressed a thousand kisses to Hinata's face.

The forehead, temple, brow. Nose and eyelids, cheeks and jaw, chin and lips. And then again. Until Hinata's warm laughter, tired but satiated, filled the air and Bokuto's heart.

Hinata was magic, madness, heaven, sin. But to Bokuto, he wasn't just that.

To him, Hinata was everything.
