anyways----

Avar and Elzar have locked folders on each other's phones for ✨private✨ content --- the passcode into Avar's is Elzar's birthday; Elzar's passcode is Avar's name in numlock. Stellan has one, too, but it's not of illicit material, and neither of Avar or Elzar know about it. His passcode is an amalgamation of their birthdays.

Elzar is a distance swimmer and Avar and Stellan can always tell when he's in a depressive spiral because he's getting swimmer's ear left right and sideways and can't be bothered to properly clean them

The diadem of canon is a locket with a picture of the firebrands on their undergrad graduation day, Elzar likes to grip onto it when him and Avar are having sex.

Avar gets shots for migraines; Elzar's the first one to learn how to give them to her, he searches for DAYS to secure an empty training cartridge to practice. Stellan has an deep seated fear of needles but makes an honest attempt to learn for Avar and it's touching and sweet.

Avar played viola all through high school and college and occasionally still plays; Elzar thinks her finger callouses are hot. Stellan also finds them attractive but cannot name why.

Elvar cottagecore retirement on Planet X?

Whether they stay or simply can’t leave, it could work!

They have to protect the life on the plant and become guardians of Planet X so they build a cute, quant like house together, they spend their days meditating, learning of the diverse fauna of the planet and Elzar gets to fish with the Force.
