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.

( probably some combination of words and actions, honestly. not likely to be forward with the physical affection. )

( she's a tsundere who's pretty awkward with affection, but she tries. )

( definitely more on the side of cuddles/providing than words; she's easily embarrassed. )

[ Very subtle, small gestures if their bond is just starting out, and more forward gestures albeit in private if they're super close. ]

[[ooc: This character is 15, so not suitable for smutty scenes. I'm down for anything else though! This blue furred teenager is not accustomed to affection whether it's emotional or physical so he probably wouldn't be the one initiating, though he's in need of it. Prose writing style preferred! Cross canon/canon is okay!]]
