🌻, 🌾, 🌳, 🥀 for beloved Nate pls and thank
🌻 What little things do they notice about people or the world around them that make them happy? What tiny little treasures do they find in the normal every day that makes the world seem a little brighter for them?
Nathan mostly notices the things that make others happy, when something cause someone to smile or laugh. He pays more attention to those he loves and cares about, but he sees it in strangers, too. But the things that make him most happy are the little things about his husband. The little ticks and tells that he keeps to himself that no one else might notice. His habits day to day, his preferences in clothing and music. How he watches everyone like he's analyzing their every move while standing so casually, how he takes his coffee, how he gets more physical when he's agitated, how he sits on the couch. Things that he only began to notice the more they spent time together.
🌾 Describe your OC through the eyes of someone absolutely head-over-heels in love with them
"[Nathan's] sunshine, warm and happy and radiant. Lights up everything everywhere he goes. Makes the dark times bright and easier to go through. Caring and loving, sweeter than anything I've ever known. He feels like safety and peace and I need him. Bubbly and talkative, but strong and stubborn and smart. So talented, and so gorgeous, he's everything to me." - Valen Kinlaw
🌳 What is your OC’s favourite way to relax after a stressful day? Do they have a favourite book to curl up with? A hobby? Or do they have a nice bubble bath and have an early night to bed?
For Nathan, usually taking something apart and putting it back together, even if there's nothing wrong with it. Spending time with his husband, complaining about the day or chatting about nothing consequential. Maybe making a favourite comfort food and curling up on the couch. Mostly he just needs time to decompress and move on.
🥀 How would your OC decorate a notebook or journal? What kind of things are written in there? Could you give an example of a nice entry?
Nathan used to have a notebook, left behind with so many other things. It wasn't decorated, but it was a nice sturdy book, bound in fake leather with good lined paper. It was filled to the brim with bits of lyrics, random thoughts lines of poetry scribbled hastily as they came to him. There were some pages where chunks of text had been cut out, and a few pages later they were glued to a new page, disconnected phrase coming together to make a stanza. He's slowly making another.
💐 How does your OC handle being unwell or forced to rest in bed? Who cares for them and in what ways? Does your OC enjoy being doted on or are they a terrible patient? Reversed: is your OC good at taking care of others who are ill or in need?
Vito is actually pretty chill when he's sick, like he is most of the time. If he needs help, he's not afraid to let people see him weak, and he won't push himself if he needs rest. Part of growing up in a community, he learned to accept help and trust in others to willingly pick up his slack. As for who cares for them, now it's his partner: Vesper Kinlaw. He's rather doting, if a bit worried, and honestly Vito loves every second of it. When it comes to caring for others, Vito is gentle and attentive. He makes sure to check what they want and need, and either then leaves them be or keeps them company as requested.
🍁 Where does your OC go when they need to have some time to themself? Would they ever have their own “comfort corner” filled with all the things they like? Do they have a favourite spot outside that feels like its theirs and theirs alone?
Victory grew up among a nomad clan, so time to spare is rarely spent alone. She likes going out to box, either in a ring or on a sandbag. Sometimes long drives in the badlands, or if she's feeling a little more calm staying home to maintain her small collection of plants.
