Valentines alphabet with Talbert or Nixon please!
valentines day alphabet Ā ( accepting! )
A Ā : Ā AFFECTION. Ā how does your muse show affection?
Tab is a cuddler. He likes to be close to people, to by physically intimate with them in a way that goes beyond sharing a spaceĀ ---Ā this boy runs on touch, and isnāt shy about it. He enjoys being touched, having his back clapped or his arm squeezed, as much as he enjoys giving it. In a romantic relationship, this goes beyond casual touches; Tab just likes having his partner near him, being able to pull them close and simply hold them, his chin on the crown of their head while they shift and breathe against him. Heās not very tactile with casual acquaintances, so if Tab touches someone frequently, it means he cares for them.
B Ā : Ā BOUQUET. Ā does your muse like flowers? which ones are their favourite?
He has a special fondness for wildflowers, but youāre not gonna find those in any floristās shop. When heās in a sentimental mood, he might go out and pick a few to put into a bouquet... Ā but Tabās favorite way of appreciating the flowers is to bring his partner out to a field, where they can soak in their natural beauty.
C Ā : Ā CHOCOLATE. Ā does your muse like chocolate? which one is their favourite?
Heās not a big fan. Anything with nuts in it, heāll eat gladly. Nutella is one of his favorite things in the world.
D Ā : Ā DATE. Ā what is your museās ideal date? where / who with / etc?
Letās go on a hike! Tab feels most at ease in nature, so heād love to go on an afternoon hike up a familiar trail with a partner, chatting quietly until they reach his favorite ridge Ā --- Ā where they can watch the sun set over the horizon. Heās not unfamiliar with hiking in the dark, so heād be comfortable heading back down... Ā but if his partner prefers it, they can camp out for the night. Huddling in a tent with them in his arms, just talking softly and enjoying the quiet... Ā hell, heād love that.
E Ā : Ā EMBRACE. Ā does your muse like hugs? what are their hugs like?
Once againĀ ---Ā he thrives on touch! He loves touch! His hugs are warm and affectionate, like a warm drink on a rainy day. Usually heās on his best behavior, too...Ā usually.
F Ā : Ā FLIRT. Ā is your muse good at flirting? how do they flirt?
Oh, heās an inconsummate flirt, and doesnāt even try to hide it. Itās like a reflex at this point. Heās drawn to pretty ladies like magnets, and theyāre drawn to him right back. Heāll wink, heāll tease, heāll find excuses to get closer... Ā usually, girls eat out of the palm of his hand. Heās not used to being rejected Ā --- Ā on the rare occasions it does happen, he goes a little shell-shocked, and has to sit in a corner to recoup for a few minutes.
G Ā : Ā GIFT. Ā is your muse good at gift - giving or do they struggle to get it right?
Well, he definitely tries! Points for effort, at least, but Tab is a notorious regifter. If he doesnāt like something, heāll store it away for a rainy day, and rocks up to Popeyeās birthday party with the poncho Auntie Marge gave him last Christmas. He tries to be smooth, but, like...Ā buddy, everybody knows.
H Ā : Ā HEART. Ā is your muse quick or slow to give their heart away?
Heāll give the rest of him way quicker; Tabās had plenty of affairs without much emotional intimacy involved, and frankly, he prefers it that way. Real relationships are daunting. Much as he wants one, the idea still scares him a bit. Tab has to be sure of himself before trusting his heart to someone else...Ā and equally sure that they wonāt break it.
I Ā Ā : Ā I LOVE YOU. Ā does your muse find āi love youā easy or hard to say?
Tab has a dozen ways to say āI love youā that donāt involve words at all. Heāll kiss, heāll caress, heāll tease, heāll do the dishes and put them away without a second thought... Ā honestly, actions speak louder than words with him. While heāll say it after a while, his partner wonāt be surprised Ā --- Ā because heās already told them a hundred times before.
J Ā : Ā JEALOUSY. Ā does your muse get jealous in a relationship?
It depends on how serious the relationship is, and how serious the situation. Tabās not an overly-suspicious guy, and heās not about to make something over nothing...Ā but if his partnerās suddenly spending all their time with someone else, talking about them constantly, or if another person seems to be moving in on them, Tab wonāt be pleased. Heās the sort of person to say so outright, believing the situation can best be resolved if everyoneās on the same page.
K Ā : Ā KISS. Ā is your muse a good kisser? why / why not?
Do you even have to ask? Heās an astoundingly good kisser; not only does he know how to use his tongue, he recognizes the tentative dynamics of kissing, like a balanced scale which so easily tips one way or the other, and has learned to manipulate it. Not too much touch, just enough to leave his partner hungry for more... Ā not too much tongue, otherwise it gets gross... Ā let his teeth graze their lower lip just enough to make them moan, run a hand along the back of their neck just lightly enough so they shiver. Kissingās a skill, just like playing the piano or learning to cook. Tabās... Ā had a lot of practice.
L Ā : Ā LOVE. Ā who does your muse love?
Tabās a funny sort of extrovert:Ā he can thrive in a room full of people easily, enjoying the company of his friends and the opportunities to make new ones...Ā but he never feels more at peace than when heās outside, in nature and quiet. Honestly, Tab adores his family, adores his friends, adores animals, and would adore any partner he had...Ā but nature will always have a special place in his heart. (Nature, and Captain Winters. Always.)
M Ā : Ā MOONLIGHT. Ā is morning or night a more romantic setting?
Look, Tab can work with any hour of the day. Heās not picky. 3pm? 3am? Heās ready to go. Maybe heās half-asleep, but heās ready.
N Ā : Ā NAUGHTY. Ā what is your muse like in bed?
If the human body were a piano, Tabās Ludwig von Freakinā Beethoven. Knows exactly what heās doing with his hands at all times. Tab can work wonders with those hands; itās hard for his partner to keep track of exactly where they are or what theyāre doing, only that they need to be doing more of it. He can be quite sparing with touch during the act, preferring to make his embraces count. Knows all the best places to stimulate; the gasps and moans of his partner only urge him on, encouraging him to work harder at pleasing them. Can grind like nobodyās business, and is shockingly flexible; has tried most positions at least once, and will try them again. When it comes to kinks, heās actually a bit shy about trying anything too extreme... but if his partner pitches it right, heāll usually be willing to try. Not to mention the mouth Ā --- Ā Tab has a magic mouth, and puts it to work exactly as God intended.
O Ā : Ā ODE. Ā does your muse have a way with words?
Not really. He tries, god help him Ā --- Ā heās even tried his hand at writing poetry, not that heās ever let anyone read it, because he knows how bad it is... Ā but Tab is quite plainspoken. He says what heās thinking. That said, heās got a talent for making the bluntest compliments sound romantic when he tries.
P Ā : Ā PARTNER. Ā what does your muse look for in a partner? looks / personality?
Someone adventurous. Tab needs someone whoās willing to try new things, who can keep him on his toes at times. He wants someone he can laugh with, someone he can dance around the kitchen with... Ā but also someone who appreciates the quiet beauty life has to offer. If they like being outside? All the better. They have to love animals, thatās non-negotiable. (Hopefully a dog person?) A great laugh, self-confidence... Ā and a bit of passion.
Q Ā : Ā QUESTION. Ā would your muse ask the big question or expect their partner to?
Look, heāll absolutely do it. If he gets to the point where theyāre both readyĀ ---Ā preferably after theyāve had a long conversation about it beforehandĀ ---Ā Tab will plan a cozy proposal outside, pick out a ring, find a serene spot and...Ā go for it. But if his partner did it first, it would be a massive weight off his shoulders, and heād honestly be relieved.
R Ā : Ā ROMANCE. Ā is your muse a romantic or a cynic?
Heās got a romantic streak so big that it chokes him sometimes. Really, he just wants to share all the things he loves with someone who can find as much joy in it as him...Ā and he wants to get to know their world and everything they care about. He craves a deep connection with someone, beyond the physical intimacy of sex, but the idea intimidates him at the same time. Tab would absolutely spoil his partner with romantic surprises and gifts, just because he wants to make them feel appreciated and get to know them better. He wants to understand what kind of romance they want.
S Ā : Ā SWEETHEART. Ā did your muse have a childhood sweetheart?
He had his first kiss under a jungle gym when he was four. You do the math.
T Ā : Ā TRUE LOVE. Ā does your muse believe in true love?
He... Ā wants to. Very much. Isnāt sure heās ever seen it before, and doubts itās for everyone Ā --- Ā heās kind of convinced itāll never happen to him Ā --- Ā but itās got to be real for some people.
U Ā : Ā UNREQUITED. Ā has your muse had their heart broken?
He had a girlfriend in high school that he was crazy for, even hoped to marry one day. Little Floyd was popular with the girls, but he grew into an awkward phase that lasted throughout middle and most of high school; but Maryetta Stevens was the sweetest gal heād ever known, and never judged him for his acne or his bitten nails. He was genuinely head-over-heels for her... Ā but she was stolen away by the marching band captain, and that was the end of that. It took him months to recover.
V Ā : Ā VALENTINE. Ā how does your muse feel about valentineās day?
Heās got a dozen things heād prefer to be doing, but everybody wants to go on a date on Valentineās day. If fighting their way through a crowded restaurant just to get a cozy table by the window is what his partner wants to do, Tabās game for it.
W Ā : Ā WEDDING. Ā would your muse get married? why / why not?
Itās something heās given a lot of thought to Ā --- Ā and, while heās not against it, it would definitely have to be with the right person. Tabās not going to make that commitment until he knows he wants to spend the rest of his life with someone; itās not something he takes lightly.
X Ā : Ā XOXO. Ā does your muse use / like pet names?
Not for his friends in general, but heās got nicknames for all his siblings, would come up with great ones for his own kids...Ā and a few sweet, intimate ones he uses exclusively for his partner. Those only come out when heās in a gushy mood.
Y Ā : Ā YOURS. Ā does your muse get protective easily?
...Ā yeah. Abso-freaking-lutely. And heās not gonna apologize for it either. If someoneās threatening someone he cares about, Tabās not gonna hesitate to step in, and heāll take whatever approach is necessaryĀ ---Ā a suggestive word, or a firm fist. Tab doesnāt mess around when it comes to protecting the people he loves.
Z Ā : Ā ZZZ. Ā how many people has your muse slept with?
Heās... Ā heās... Ā heās Tab, is the thing. Heās just... Ā talented. A gift like that doesnāt come without a lot of people eager to unwrap the package. The boy... definitely gets around.
