ways to show affection


When it comes to the way affection is shown, everyone has a different way they go about it. That means that there's a pretty good chance, with regards to couples, you could end up with two people who have two varying approaches towards how they prove they care...sometimes radically varying, which can lead to more than a little confusion or hurt feelings if there's not proper communication. But when both people are on the same page, they can tell each other how they feel with few words.

☄ Comment with your character, info, prefs, and how your character will likely show affection.
☄ Reply to others.
☄ Thread, my dears!

WORDS: Sweet affirmations, pet names, even
CUDDLES: Hugs, nuzzles, the works.
KISSING: On the check or on the lips.
KINDNESS: Always there for them.
PROVIDING: Providing care, providing protection, providing financially.
GENTLE...ER: Your only weak spot.
MEANNESS: Straight up tsundere.
GIFTS: All the pretty things.
ACTIONS: Visits, taking care of their problems, taking them out, and more.
SUBTLE: A distant sort of affection, but they know.

[He sees her little smile and returns it with a soft one of his own. Bravery isn't an absence of fear - its action in the face of fear. He knows it takes courage for her to put herself out there and he admires that.]

Food afterward sounds fine. It's been a while since I've had fair food. We'll get as much junk as we can handle. [He gives her shoulder another squeeze and starts them heading in the right directon. He does move his hand at his side though.]

Of course you can hang on to my shirt. I don't mind. Unless it would be easier for you to hold my hand.

U-Uhm.. if it's a-alright with you.. then.. [She quickly releases his shirt only to reach over and grab at his much larger hand. It must be a sight to those around them; such a tiny thing like her side by side with Shiro while holding hands. She hears a few 'look at how adorable they are' and she ducks her head down, ears red.] I-It's a little embarrassing...

[Despite her confession she holds on tight to Shiro as she follows after him, eyes taking in everything around her with wide eyes.] Wow.. So colorful! [She spots a roller-coaster in the distance along with the excited screams of the passengers. No way am I getting on that one.. thank god I'm not with the others. They didn't take NO for an answer.]

I wonder what the others are all doing now.. [She muses this curiously with a tilt of her head. Up ahead Yunoha could see the towering structure of the Ferris Wheel along with a relatively short line to get into it. It was pretty high up but she pushes her nervousness down.]

[Shiro doesn't see anything embarrassing about holding her hand. It feels a great deal the way he imagines having a younger sister would feel, her utterly small hand in his larger one. But if she's comfortable, that's what matters. And the way she clings to his hand, he assumes that means its something that gives her some kind of comfort. He keeps his stride in check so that she doesn't have to hurry to keep up with him, taking his time as they walk. There's no need to hurry and as much as she's soaking in the atmosphere of the place -

he is too.

After his captivity, there are so many little things that he appreciates. So much he realizes he might have lost forever. All the smiling faces, the laughter, the people and children rushing past with flushed cheeks intent on enjoying themselves... he inhales long and deep, smells the fried food and can't help but smile. He looks down at his companion and hums.]


Hopefully going on the rides first and eating second. I'm pretty sure Hunk and Pidge on my team know better but I wouldn't put it past Keith and Lance to compete on how much they can pack down first before picking the craziest rides. [It's said fondly - and with a touch of worry. He adores his team. He just knows them a little too well sometimes. Still - it might actually turn out to be good for Keith. He gives the girl next to him a smile as they get in line for their own chosen ride.] That's why we're the smart ones that are going on the Ferris Wheel and then getting something to eat. How about your team?
