#btmo asks

Cause I do that lmao

He doesn't even pretend, he directly takes them out. Technically, he can still hear Dante without them (he's loud enough), but the point is taken.

Abraxas: Keep your distance at all times or face the consequences. 😅 As a vampire, he’s not a fan of random physical touch, mostly because he’s no longer used to it — he’d be relatively touchy if he did manage to get close enough to someone.

Circe: Very physically affectionate/touchy.

Dante: He’s going to act like he doesn’t like being touched, and currently he really doesn’t, but a relaxed and healthy Hellhound is very cuddly and affectionate. That includes being petted.

Edgar: Though he’s very cuddly with Circe and animals, he’s not really a cuddly guy in general as he needs to be pretty comfy with you first. (He isn’t averse to touch, it’s more like— uh, why would you hug unless you’re close?)

Iridis: He's perfectly fine with physical touch only if you fulfill one of three conditions: He likes you, you're a child, you're an animal. (Bonus if you're a baby animal.)

Nocturne: Not physically affectionate at all with friends or family. She’s happy to be physically affectionate w her partner, as long as you’re not trying to hug or kiss her when she doesn’t want to be distracted.

Raoul: He's okay with shorter, friendly touches, but he's not one for randomly hugging people, for example. Even in a relationship, he doesn't need that much physical affection, though he's okay if his partner wants it.

Abraxas: Would like it Circe: Absolutely not unless her hair's already messed up from other activities lol

Dante: He likes headpats a lot. (Don't tell him I said that.)

Edgar: Would like it

Iridis: If you've got permission to touch him, sure. He himself doesn't do a lot with his hair, but he's very tolerant to others styling his hair. It's hard to say whether he enjoys it, but he does appear pretty relaxed whenever someone works on his hair, so maybe he does?

Nocturne: Depends on the situation. Sometimes, yes, sure.

Raoul: Not constantly, but let's say it's a nice cozy evening, and his partner plays with his hair… Sure.

EDIT: Oops, forgot to actually add our answers before posting!

Abraxas: Legs (don't ask if he's into feet pls). This is less about him looking at people's legs, and more that once he is into someone, their legs is something he tends to find attractive about them whether they are short, long, chubby, or slender.

Circe: She likes little quirks/features that stick out (often they might be things that the person is slightly insecure abt but she finds it charming bc it makes them stand out more) e.g. Edgar's freckles, if someone has a mole or a tooth gap.

Dante: Not really anything. The people he finds attractive vary by a lot.

Edgar: I think he'd just like a nice smile. Doesn't have a clear type that he's aware of at least.

Iridis: Eyes. He can read a lot in someone's eyes, so they're the most interesting to him.

Nocturne: She's more into personality traits than physical attributes, but she likes women who are shorter than her (even if only by a little). She also likes someone with a good sense of fashion.

Raoul: He likes muscles. Nice hair is a bonus, too. (He has a very clear type.)

Abraxas: Doesn’t think much about his looks anymore and he’s aware he’s pretty boring today (😭). When he was human, he was quite smug about his looks and the attention it got, but he’s embarrassed when he thinks back to that now.

Circe: She likes her appearance in general. It's been useful for her.

Dante: His hellhound form, probably.

Edgar: Likes his freckles, after Circe’s spent years complimenting them (though he was shy about them as a kid).

Iridis: Spoilers!

Nocturne: She doesn't have a specific feature that she favors over another. She took her time becoming who she is, and she’s proud of every part.

Raoul: Doesn’t have anything specific that he likes or dislikes about himself. He knows he’s got a nice face, so there’s that.

what hobbies do the characters have or what do they like to do in their free time?

Abraxas: Not very laidback, so he tends to keep busy with work even in his free time. On the rare occasions that he does take a break, he'll put on a record, read a book and unwind with a glass of synthetic blood. Every few weeks, he'll pay a visit to his ancestral home to pay respects to his family's graves and make sure the manor isn't falling apart.

Circe: Shopping/thrifting (but she sometimes sends Edgar to do this for her when a store closes before the sun goes down), sewing new clothes, watching movies, reading books, writing in her journal, etc etc. Circe has a million hobbies. She even tried to learn how to bake for Edgar once. At night, she likes to go drinking at the Golden Cat. Very rarely as of late, she'll go clubbing and pick someone up.

Dante: In his current state, he's not really investing time into hobbies, but he loves exercising. He also often wanders around the city, stopping at clubs here and there as he pleases. Orion ropes him into spending time with Alice, too, so he's essentially babysitting several times a month.

Edgar: When Edgar finally has free time, he's usually just sleeping. A few times a week, he'll go for a walk or sit in the park and eat a pastry. If he can find the time, he'll clean his flat and bake himself something nice. At night, he likes to go drinking at the Golden Cat with Circe or Raoul.

Iridis: He has no "hobbies" or things he especially likes doing exactly. He spends most of his time either watching people or nature, or walking to reach a new place where he will be watching people or nature. Sometimes he may stop in a city to experience the current lifestyle, then… go back to walking. And watching.

Nocturne: "What's a hobby?" Just kidding, but not really. Nocturne's primary interest is her research, so it's rare that she steps away from that. When she takes a break to drink some tea and read, she's still researching. Once upon a blue moon, she might go clubbing for a bit of fun.

Raoul: He enjoys calmer activities in his free time - books, movies, meeting up with Edgar for a drink. When he's got a longer vacation, he flies back to France to visit his family.

Not stupid! But a little difficult to answer, maybe, in some cases.

Abraxas: Never done vday ever. If he's with Circe, they'd take her on a fancy date and buy her whatever she wants (but once they're together, he'd do that for her every day anyway so it's nothing new lol).

Circe: Hates vday because it makes her sad she's single. But if she was seeing someone, she’d take it very seriously and make them a gift!

Dante: Why woudl you celebrate your relationship on one day only...?

Edgar: Probably doesn't even know when vday is, unless Circe's already been forcing him to buy her flowers every valentine for the past 20 years. If he was with Circe, he would try to have a cozy date at home.

Iridis: (confused) Why are you celebrating martyrs with hearts and chocolate?
