this heart of iron

gotta be honest I think a REAL juicy dynamic is when someone has a True Love and a Soulmate and they are two different people

see this person is the love of my life I would follow them anywhere every day is brighter for having them in it. and THIS bastard shares a soul with me we'll find each other in every universe and understand each other in ways no other living being could. neither of us are particularly thrilled about this

The existence of a safeword also implies the existence of a dangerword that you can use to instantly turn any sexual event into a combat encounter

"they should be in a healthy relationship with good communication" they should be obsessive freaks who stalk each other and have zero boundaries

i <3 when women characters feel they aren't able to express sadness in "normal" ways because they don't feel safe enough to cry in their environment so instead they opt for the more acceptable strong emotion of rage and they get recklessly angry at the people around them in fits of misplaced sadness and terror and make irreversible decisions and hurt others. i dont care as much when this happens to a man

sorry i got heart pupils when you were mean and perverted to me

i think humans are meant to lay in bed with the love of their life all winter.

Bet it feels good as fuckkk to rest your hand on the pommel of your sword when the newcomer steps a little too close to your lord who you’ve sworn to protect with your life

"honeymoon phase" i am literally healthily insane and obsessed for the entire duration of the relationship. skill issue

the dynamic between two people who love a third person so much and come to understand each other because of that is so important to me. you would put them first, and so would i. you understand why we have to save them from themself. i trust you with their life, and so, that means more than if i trusted you with mine. the love doesn't have to be the same, but it's powerful enough that you understand why you're not the only satellite drawn into their orbit.

4. the character's fetish and i'm committed to portraying them with absolute accuracy
