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.

☆ 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.

[ called out?! ]

[ Pretty much Aziraphale-oriented; down to have him showing the affection or receiving it (or a bit of both!) ]

[ M/F for shipping, OTA for gen/platonic. Either way she'll be a little skittish about receiving it. ]

[OTA for general, F/M 21+ for romantic. AUs, assumed CR, canon and crosscanon all welcome.]

( would you be interested in Linhardt providing Dimitri care in some way? Maybe helping him relax or heal after an injury? )

( I would absolutely love that! )

[A little called out?]

[ F/F please. ]

[ F/F for shippy stuff. Open to platonic affection, too! ]

[OC infosheet here! Please consider giving him a shot.]

[Ever since joining the Blue Lions, Linhardt has come to realize that prince Dimitri doesn't quite... take care of himself the way he should. Normally he wouldn't make that any of his business, however, his relationship with his new house leader has grown to the point that he actually cares.

He follows Dimitri to the (shudder) training grounds one evening, noticing how exhausted the man appears. Dedue isn't around, so he must have managed to slip away from him at some point. Linhardt supposes there is no better time than to express his opinions.

He approaches before the prince can actually pick a weapon from the training rack, the look of concern obvious in his eyes.]

Dimitri. I feel that I cannot continue to watch you neglect yourself any longer.

[He knows he's being very direct, but he isn't quite sure how else to approach this. If Dedue hasn't managed to make it happen, then Linhardt knows he's going to have to be strict.]
