Taking a Bath With Them

Vittorio, Gabriel, Jonah

Vittorio Toscano

A bath huh?

He's definitely in between yes and no.

Part of him thinks he has no time for this nonsense.

There are much better things he could be doing with his time.

Studying, learning, reading.

Vittorio won't say that out loud.

The other part of him is very intrigued.

"Why a bath?"

"Is this some special occasion?"

"Perhaps a ritual?"

He has the tendency to overanalyze everything.

Don't take offense to it, that's just how he is.

He isn't used to fancy things like that.

Back in his time, the rich people took baths sometimes, and everyone else just smelled bad.

There was no just taking a bath for the fun of it.

And there certainly wasn't any fancy soaps or bubble baths or anything like that.

So expect him to ask what everything is.

I mean everything.

"Why are you putting flower petals in the water?"

"What are these odd fragile spheres floating from the water?"

Because bubble bath is a foreign concept to him.

But once he's in the water he'll finally start to relax.

And, when Vittorio starts to relax, He starts to get very philosophical.

Questioning the meaning of life, wondering about all its beauty.

Very philosophical in a positive way.

You're going to have a difficult time getting him to shut up.

The best thing you can do is give him a swift kiss, and start massaging his shoulders.

He's never really felt relaxed before.

It might be the first time you've ever seen the creases in his forehead relax.

And after, he'll profusely thank you.

He might even try to run a bath for the both of you himself.

Because that was the calmest he's ever felt.

Gabriel Soma

A bath?

What's that?

The future has a ton of amazing technology.

Including tubes you simply step into that get you clean right away.

No hassle or fuss.

But, that also means no baths.

So you're going to have to really explain what a bath is.

"You don't have pods for that?"

"That's a very archaic way of getting clean, don't you think?"

"It seems like that would consume so much time."

And, yes, it does.

But the point is to relax.

Which, again, is something he's never really done.

So you'll really have to explain the purpose behind relaxing too.

You have to remember, Gabriel was cloned for one purpose.

That's all he really knows.

Well, that and running from the killers.

The best way to do this is to show him everything and explain the function.

The bathtub, soap, shampoo.

He doesn't really understand the function of a rubber duck.

Explaining joy and relaxation isn't getting anywhere.

It might just be easier to get a bath running for Gabriel and see how it goes from there.

It almost feels like teaching a toddler how to take a bath properly.

But it isn't his fault, and make sure he knows that.

Because he's actually pretty embarrassed.

Make sure the water is warm, not hot.

He doesn't like it when the water's super hot.

He'll absolutely melt when you wash his hair.

He's never really experienced something so blissful before.

He might even ask if you can do that multiple times.

By the end it's almost impossible to get him out of the bath.

But the water is cold and his lips are blue.

So, yeah, get him out before he catches a cold.

And promise to take another bath with him sometime soon.

Because, as our cake of a method as it is, it's certainly enjoyable.

Jonah Vasquez

Once you bring up the idea, he'll start spouting his knowledge of ancient civilizations and what they used baths for.

"The ancient Greeks used it for purification rituals."

"So did the Romans and various other Indus River civilizations."

"Is there a reason behind this bath?"

"Some ritual you want me to take part in?"

He's a little paranoid.

But, can you blame him?

Nearly everything in this man's life has been a puzzle, all leading up to his time in the realm.

It's only natural he questions this as something similar.

Like the others, he's not very good at relaxing.

Forced to constantly look over his shoulder most of his adult life, he had precious little time to sit back and take in the world.

So the first hurdle is going to get him to sit still long enough to be in the bath.

He also gets cold really easily.

Jonah always preferred warm climates.

So make sure the water temperature is nice and hot.

It will remind him of his mangrove in Fresno, and this should help him calm down a little bit.

He also loves fruity scents.

Again, another reminder of home.

Despite all this he'll still be on edge.

Maybe try massaging his shoulders?

And if you wash his hair, Make sure to do so gently and massage his scalp.

He'll do the same for you.

Despite all this attempt to get him to relax, he still just can't do it.

Give him time though.

"I'm sorry. I can't do it. Not yet."

I believe I can. I'm sorry this one took me so long, I didn't have very many good ideas for it. I still really don't. But, please enjoy anyways.

Getting into an argument with them: Vittorio, Feng, Jonah

Vittorio Toscano

He's pretty mild-mannered in general.

Vittorio tends to be very passive.

He's that, Make Love Not War, type of guy.

And he's able to let most things go.

So would take a lot for you to get into an argument.

Something really bad would have to happen.

Something along the lines of you putting yourself in great danger.

Or you doing something unbelievably cruel for no reason.

If it's the second reason, he wouldn't talk to you for days.

Depending on how cool it was, he might even leave you on the spot.

He's seen enough unnecessary cruelty in his life. He doesn't want to see anymore.

Especially from his partner.

Now if you put yourself in danger, that's a different story.

He doesn't get as mad as he gets hysterical.

He'll make a big deal out of the issue, dragging it on for days and days till you're annoyed with him.

"What were you thinking? Are you insane? Do you know how hurt you could have gotten?"

"What would I do without you? How would I continue to live knowing I let you get hurt like that?"

If anything, he's more upset with himself for not stopping you sooner.

Make sure you give him lots of affection and lots of affirmation.

And a very truthful and honest promise that you'll never do what you did again.

After that, just grab a book and read to him.

Or, just lay in his lap and allow him to keep you close by.

That's a surefire way to help him feel better.

Feng Min

She's usually pretty laid back.

But she has a couple things that will send her into a rage.

But these things are usually easily avoided.

One, if she loses a game in some cheap way.

If that happens, just avoid her for at least 30 minutes.

Or discreetly give her another game to play.

Then she'll go back to her usual self.

Another is if you interrupt her during a game that she can't pause.

If that happens, it's better to back out of the room, quickly apologize, and talk to her after the game.

If you needed her for something, she'll come and get you after her game.

She'll even thank you for waiting.

But there are times when she just gets unbelievably angry.

And during those times all little things set her off.

Her controller isn't where she left it.

Her hair is in her face.

It's too hot in the room.

Things that you can't control, she'll blame on you.

If anything, she acts more like a spoiled brat.

You can say that, but that's only going to make things worse.

She'll yell and stop her feet before just leaving.

In about an hour or so she'll come back.

And it's obvious she's feeling really bad about it.

But, she's too proud to say it out loud.

She'll apologize, but it won't feel like much of an apology.

She'll get you snacks though.

If it was a really bad fight, and she knows it was her fault, she will come back very remorseful.

She's not a big fan of talking about her feelings,but she'll do it this time.

For you.

And only you.

Don't worry, there will still be snacks.

Jonah Vasquez

Jonah can be very high strung.

Considering his past, you can't blame him too much.

However, unless you do something really bad, he isn't one to usually get angry with you.

However, one thing you could do that would anger him the most is scare him on purpose.

Again, considering his past and everything he went through, it's a pretty understanding issue.

Now, if you did it by accident, like you open the door and he wasn't expecting you, that's a different story.

He might be a little shaken up, but he'll brush it off soon after.

If you do it on purpose?

He might start yelling.

But, at the same time he's shaking violently.

And hyperventilating.

And he won't let you touch him.

He might even physically push you away if you try.

He'll want to remove himself from the situation as soon as possible to try and calm himself.

And if you pursue him, he might snap at you.

And his words can be hurtful.

He doesn't mean it, but you did something to him that he's asked you to never do.

If anything, he feels betrayed and it's justified to speak to you like this.

You'll need to give him some space and time.

Depending on how badly you scared him, it might be a couple days before he's ready to talk to you again.

And make sure you make sound when you're near him.

That way he knows you're around.

If you don't, he might think you're trying to scare him again.

Once he's ready to talk he'll sit you down and explain the situation.

He's aware he didn't react as well as he could.

But, in his defense, he's asked you not to do that.

It will be a time for both of you to apologize for what you had done.

I live for this cute wholesome stuff! I can absolutely do that!

With a Reader who likes hugs.

Jonah, Bill, Yoichi, Gabriel

Jonah Vasquez

When he was younger, a hug was a wonderful thing.

As he grew up, he really didn't get them.

He moved away from his family, and he didn't have a significant other until he found you.

Now, Jonah is a very paranoid person.

After all that happened to him, it's to be expected.

Since he was sixteen, he's felt like someone has been hovering over his shoulder.

So give him a signal when you're going to give him a hug.

Or tell him.

And no surprise hugs.

He won't be too happy about that.

Soft and gentle.

His hugs are warm and can last a long time, but he'll constantly be looking around as if something is coming for him.

It's just his way of protecting you.

Bill Overbeck

Bill is old.

Actually, the oldest survivor in the realm.

He's always been through a lot.

And I mean a lot.

He wants to keep his tough old man persona.

Zombies, war, now being hunted by supernatural things?

He's done.

But, for some reason, getting a hug feels... relaxing.

Calming even.

Don't surprise hug him though.

As much as he loves hugs, he can't stop himself from doing what feels natural when he's attacked.

He never took a moment to just breathe and relax.

His hugs tend to last a long time and are very tight.

It's like squeezing you makes him feel calmer.

Just let him know if the hugs are too tight, he often doesn't know his own strength.

Yoichi Asakawa

In his culture, hugging really isn't a big thing.

Affection itself isn't really a big thing.

So when you reach out for a hug, he's a little confused.

You want a hug?

Why?

He'll think it's strange.

Explain what hugs mean in your culture and he'll start to understand.

You have to ask him first.

And it can't be in public.

PDA isn't really a big thing in his culture either.

But once he gets used to it, it isn't so bad.

His hugs are quick, but very tight and strong.

And he won't admit it, but he loves them.

Gabriel Soma

His story is complex.

First, he's a clone.

And he was always raised a clone.

Therefore, the affection he got wasn't nearly as much as a normal humans.

He was raised for one person, and that was to work.

No one had ever held him.

No one had ever hugged him.

So when you first gave him a hug, he froze up.

He hadn't the faintest clue as to what you were doing.

But... he liked it.

Awkwardly, he wrapped his arms back around you.

He doesn't know how to give a hug.

So you're going to have to show him.

But after a while, he gives the best hugs.

I think I can do that. Please enjoy!

Poly Relationship Headcannons for Jeff and Johna

The personalities could not be any more different.

Jeff it's very laid back and relaxed.

He's able to go with the flow of things.

Johna is definitely more high strung.

In an odd way, they balance each other out.

Jeff is Jonah's rock.

He's excellent at keeping the ever paranoid and anxious Johna calm.

Jeff is great at calming anyone down.

No matter who it is.

He's also great at getting people to open up.

So you nor Jonah will ever feel neglected or stuck with something on your mind.

Jeff is an excellent listener and is always willing to listen to both of you.

No matter how trivial the concern may seem.

Jonah is excellent and keeping the house and everything else organized.

Jeff can be kind of a scatter brain, so Jonah is helping him with organization skills.

Jonah can get a little irritated when things aren't put back in their proper place.

So occasional fights break out between three of you.

But Jeff is an excellent voice of reason and always knows how to keep things civil between people.

So the fights rarely last for more than a few minutes and never escalate to screaming.

The favorite activity among the three of you is cooking.

Jonah likes it because it's a precise art.

Jeff enjoys decorating cakes and dishes as he has a very artistic flair.

And they both enjoy feeding you.

Their eyes seem to light up when you try whatever they've created.

They also both enjoy art.

Jonah's is a lot more precise and neat.

Jeff's art tends to be more creative and messy.

But they're both able to sit back and enjoy each other's artwork.

Jonah can sometimes be a little too uptight and get on the two of you for trivial things.

Slouching, leaving the bed unmade, your socks aren't folded correctly.

Instead of being irritated by it, Jeff laughs it off, causing you to laugh all the same.

And, eventually, Jonah will see how ridiculous he's being and laugh about it as well.

Both of them are fairly tall, so you'll never have any trouble getting things off a high shelf.

Jonah usually just grabs it for you.

Jeff likes to pick you up and have you reach it yourself.

He does that to Jonah sometimes.

Jeff finds it hilarious at how fluster Jonah gets when he's embarrassed.

Both are fairly intelligent men too.

Well Jonah has more book smarts, Jeff is smarter in a more spiritual and chrasmatic type of way.

Both enjoy long discussions about philosophy.

And don't be worried about sounding stupid when talking to them.

Just you being there is enough for them, even if you don't know what they're talking about.

Just you being you is perfect for them.
