Ways to Show Affection

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.

You should be able to stay awake long enough to eat.

[Ignis stood by the glow of the campfire with his arms crossed. It was dusk now but there was time before bed to eat. This was something he wanted each and every member of their party to do.]

[ so yuuri had a bad dream and usually silly things like that don't bother him but... but this one really struck close to home. it was cold, too, which didn't help and it was making falling back asleep a pain in the neck. and usually it was viktor who crept in the middle of the night for warmth into his bed, but tonight would be a sort of role reversal. so at 3am, have a certain yuuri quietly slipping into bed, hugging his pillow, trying to be as quiet as possible. ]
