Karin and Henryk cuddling in bed!

Oh sweetheart you have no idea for how fucking long I have been waiting for someone sending me an ask exactly like that. I am going to enjoy answering it with my whole being.

Alright so headcanons huh? I can do that. I can most definitely do that.

Henrin :

-Both of them bounded over their shared dislike of the Bremen Empire. So in general, their political views actually align together well. Karin doesn’t like how passive Henryk is most of the time, though.

-I’d imagine, if you were to come to them and tell them you believe in occult and magic, they both would point and laugh at you. Karin is more of a louder laughter at the absurdity you’re telling her while Henryk is more of a small «Yeah right » kind of chuckle. They’re mean girls to me.

-Both started of as fwb to relieve eachother’s stress and also fill up their respective egos. Henryk because he gets to fw a celebrity and therefore not be a complete nobody after all since he pulled her, and Karin because she has no fear of Henryk leaving her because she knows he can’t do better as a nobody average Joe.

-Both are queer. Henryk is a bisexual man who isn’t openly and proudly so but did flirt with men before and still does when him and Karin aren’t serious yet (but he never had the courage to keep up with it and actually have encounters with other men) and Karin is a closeted bisexual woman and projects onto queer men in particular. If/when she realized it might definitely do something to her psyche. Leads to interesting stuff about Karin discovering about Henryk’s sexuality (he does not call it bisexuality because at this era they did not have that word to describe it) and unpacking her internalized homophobia/biphobia.

-I can most definitely imagine that the main conflict between them comes from the fact that Karin refuses to be vulnerable to Henryk at first due to her trust issues, and notices immediately how jealous he gets at her popularity and fame, which she immediately calls out and tells him to correct before it actually becomes a problem. Then Henryk would feel hurt at Karin’s refusal to put off her walls around him because himself does efforts to better himself. An argument would probably happen between them and Henryk would leave, slamming the door shut while doing so.

-It’s only after a short while of being separated that Karin realizes that she does care for Henryk and how much so. She realizes that she is in love with him and uh. She did not just fall in love, it was a whole plane crash in her mind. So for a while her and Henryk would not keep in touch, but at one point she just has enough and takes matters in her own hands and comes directly to see him to apologize to him and have a genuine heart to heart with him about it. He decides to accept to listen to her cause he sees it takes her quite a bit to open up.

-They tearfully make up after a few hours and start to become friends in a more healthy way, and then as time goes on they slowly but surely become a couple. Henryk loves to annoy Karin and Karin pretend to be pissed at his sappy jokes and whatnot but she would not really want Henryk to be any different in reality. Karin’s the kind to shove whatever food Henryk is making while they’re chatting when he’s being annoying lol. They also like to be mean to eachother and only eachother know that it’s just how they are and most of the time the mean words are just mean words that mean nothing.

-On a less timeline related note, Henryk cooks and Karin loves his food. She does not ever express it through words but she eats it all up at once when he does just tells him everything he needs to know.

-Henryk tries to convince Karin to relax more while Karin convinces Henryk to stop lamenting and get his shit together to find a profession he likes. I can imagine she has contacts due to her being a journalist to which she can pass on Henryk so he can find people who can for example teach him stuff or hire him.

-Their love language is gossiping and talking shit about people who annoy them. More often than not Henryk will gesture at Karin to come ither and he will whisper some joke or gossip about a person they wanna clown on and she will have a little restricted giggle about it, that and possibly whisper something back to him.

O’saAbella :

-Kept contact after the Termina festival because Abella wanted to know more about occultism after everything she’s seen at the festival, and O’saa was her best bet to get all the knowledge she needed. O’saa is happy to provide, and fuels his ego a lot to know someone would want to learn from him. Also a way for him to learn more about machines.

-They write to eachother a lot when they’re apart at the start, but it has become difficult due to O’saa moving around a lot. So, O’saa suggests to Abella that she could travel around the world with him so he could show her in person what she needs to know. She accepts and here they go.

-O’saa has a sweet tooth while Abella adores everything savory. O’saa shows her around the world and lets her taste local foods and she eats it up everytime. When it’s very spicy, she will be tearing up, red faced, but have the brightest smile and cry about how good the food is while O’saa is just amused at her enthusiasm.

-Abella is very touchy with him since the start. Often tugging at his shirt or sleeve for his attention, or likes to put her hands on his shoulders. The contact is a bit off putting to him, but not exactly uncomfortable, so he doesn’t really say anything about it.

-Most conflict between them definitely comes from their differences in morals and I can imagine that the arguments about these are actually quite bad and serious. They stay mad at eachother for over a week and then end up making up, each apologizing to eachother in their own ways.

-Abella LOVES to sit in O’saa’s lap while she explains things to him or shows him stuff she’s working on. She’s the yapper and he’s the listener for sure. She just loves having him close to her all the time. He also does, but secretly so.

-O’saa loves to experiment with magic and try different tricks to let Abella watch. Abella is open minded and always curious about how it all happens, she he lets her and revels in how interested she is about it. Abella, though, always tries to think of a «logical » way magic works, and gets confused when O’saa tells her that there is no logic and magic just works in its own ways and no mortal explaination can suit it.

-As time goes on and they grow closer, O’saa starts to become tactile with her as well, in his own ways. Hand on her chin, holding her hand when she’s touching his. He feels miserable about enjoying her presence and her touch so much for a while, guy has not felt romantic love up until now (demiromantic moment for him fr)

-Both of them are autistic. Abella is on a part of the spectrum that gives her huge sense of justice while O’saa is on the part of the spectrum that makes him express and process emotions differently than most people. None of them would know of autism at this era but that’s what they would be referred to as in our era.

-They get together because they both realize that they imagine their future with eachother and they are who they want to be with for as long as they live. Once they are an item, and even before that, I can imagine they send quips to eachother a lot, both like to mess with eachother, and Abella laughs at O’saa’s bad jokes.

-Abella, having raised all her younger siblings, definitely knows the stare and does not fucking hesitate to give it to O’saa when he says something messed up, and he gets the message.
