      “Say shoo fly, and I’ll shoo. Or I could start rambling about poetry. Either or.”

                  ✿ . :  Oh, sweet Shadow. she could just eat him up. “Shadow, sugar.” Her voice is soft, hesitant. The poor boy has had a long day there is no need for her to make it any longer. But she's worried. "Are you alright?" She sits carefully beside him. "I know it's not my place to ask... I just... You've seen a lot today, you've been through a lot, and I know that kind of thing weighs on a person." A pause, and she shifts to look at him, taking his hands in her own. They're warm, like she's been laying out in the sun. "And being with Wednesday... That really can't help... I just... I want you to know my door is always open to friends, and even if talking isn't your thing, you can ask me anything." I want to help you.

who is more likely to hurt the other?: Look at them. Look at them again. Now think about what you just asked.who is emotionally stronger?: Pol is one tough cookie.who is physically stronger?: Shadow, easily.who is more likely to break a bone?: Shadow is more likely to get his bones broken by some horrible turd Wednesday met up with.who knows best what to say to upset the other?: Pol is more likely to, I can’t see Shadow deliberately setting out to upset her no matter what’s happening.who is most likely to apologise first after an argument?: Shadow. Pol doesn’t even know what sorry is, she’s got that prideful goddess thing even though she seems humble.who treats who’s wounds more often?: Again for fuck sake leave Shadow alone.who is in constant need of comfort?: Shadow, precious moon pup.who gets more jealous?: Pol probably gets more jealous than she admits to being. She’s no doubt stabbed a knife between her sister’s reaching hand and Shadow’s glorious bicep before.who’s most likely to walk out on the other?: I think Pol is more likely to second guess and think about ending things than Shadow, but I really don’t know.who will propose?: Shaaddddoowwwwwho has the most difficult parents?: Fuckin’ Shadow man. Fuck.who initiates hand-holding when they’re out in public?: Polunochnaya but I feel like Shadow likes to hold her hand constantly too. They’re probably one of those gross couples who even do it in sync and smile about it. Ugh.who comes up for the other all the time?: Tbh it’s likely quite even. It’s probably “Polly did this-” or “Shadow would love this-”. who hogs the blankets?: The zorya likes to make herself a burrito and sit in his lap while they watch films.who gets more sad?: That’s like asking who breathes more. Both.who is better at cheering the other up?: I’m sure Pol tries but she’s too morbid and fatalistic, so Shadow definitely.who’s the one that playfully slaps the other all the time after they make silly jokes?: Pol, probably after some neat coin tricks too.who is more streetwise?: Shadow, main man Shadow.who is more wise?: Polunochnaya.who’s the shyest?: I think probably Shadow. Pol’s the type to stand up on a table to address the whole diner while Shadow hides his face.who boasts about the other more?: I seriously doubt Pol ever shuts up about her favoured warrior and how strong he is.who sits on who’s lap?: Pol’s favourite place is on his lap, sleeping on his chest.
