21. Turn-ons? Turn-offs?
turn-ons: AUTHORITY FIGURES, nice smiles, orgasm delay/denial, words of encouragement, overstimulation, restraints, choking/gagging, hair pulling, scratching, intense eye contact, sensory deprivation (blindfolding, etc), deep intimacy, neck kissing/biting, massages — both giving and receiving for all of them; Teddy's natural inclination is more submissive but they are very versatile, and their favorite thing is dominating someone who wants to be dominated because they view it as another way to give pleasure to someone else. Teddy also likes when people are really, really rough with them, but they're less inclined to do the same for someone else because they're afraid of pushing too hard, unless their partner specifies that they're okay with that. (Even then, they'll always be more on the encouraging side as a dom, no matter how rough they may be).
That said, Teddy also really, really enjoys the kind of sex that's slow and deep but soft and leaves them breathless and trembling for days.
turn-offs: bloodplay, spanking, and intense humiliation are really the only things that come to mind because Teddy is pretty open-minded, but they also get kind of uncomfortable if they're receiving too much attention because it makes them feel selfish and self-conscious. In a similar vein, Teddy is really mouthy (kissing, sucking, biting) and is always very happy to give plenty of blowjobs, but they don't really like receiving them.
this got really long DON'T JUDGE ME
29. Reaction to sudden extrapersonal disaster (eg The house is on fire! What do they do?)
God, Teddy is probably the WORST person to get caught in a disaster with, because they will spend a lot of time panicking and trying to save every feasible thing around before any semblance of rationality will set in. But the PLANTS! And the STUFFED ANIMALS! And what about their FAVORITE PILLOW?! They're not a very material person, but they attach sentimental value to everything. They've also never really had to deal with any kind of outside disaster and always lived with a squad of people who are prepared for these things, so they've always just kind of planned on doing whatever they were told to do. As a result? No personal survival skills.
30. Reaction to sudden intrapersonal disaster (eg close family member suddenly dies)
In this case Teddy is the opposite—where everything is big feelings and MAD CHAOS with extrapersonal disasters (and with their life, in general), Teddy internalizes any kind of severe emotional trauma and tries to turn it around into positivity and productivity, which usually just means they're completely ignoring the issue at hand until all the denied grieving comes tearing out of them. Teddy also becomes incredibly active in their social relationships during any time of sadness, mourning, or pain, both trying to distract themselves from their own inner darkness and hoping that focusing on and potentially solving other people's problems and crises will then somehow eradicate their own problems and crises. For someone who talks a lot about being in touch with your feelings and dealing with them, Teddy is fucking terrible at it.
