Ooh, can we have some Zia/Zoecina fluff too? :3
Zoe and Alcina talk about how shitty their brothers were/are quite a bit
In fact Zoe is Alcinaās go-to when she needs to rant about Heisenberg, because Zoe understands the āBrother who thinks heās better than you because heās smarterā trope and how annoying it is.
Zoe is incredibly interested in Alcinaās life before the Cadou, and always likes to hear her tell stories about it.
Alcina has to admit she doesnāt understand Zoe when she gets frustrated/angry and starts throwing around insults in a heavy Southern accent. Nor does she fully understand Zoeās Southernisms much in general. (She also suffers this problem with Mia on occasion)
She does find the Southern Twang very cute, though.
Zoe is the sort of person who can fall asleep anywhere (not unlike Alcinaās daughters), so Alcina will sometimes find Zoe taking a nap in odd places.
Most of the time sheās kind enough to at least bring Zoe to a couch or something so she doesnāt wake up with back/neck pain.
Doesnāt matter if Alcinaās on the sofa reading, laying in bed, on the phone, if sheās in a position Zoe can flop herself horizontally across her somehow, Zoeās gonna take it the opportunity.
Unlike Mia who doesnāt sleep very much, Zoe actually sleeps a LOT and if Alcina ever āsleeps inā itās usually because Zoeās laying on top of her and she doesnāt wanna disturb her. (The only exception being early morning meetings)
Alcina and Zoe just⦠sitting out on one of the castleās balconyās smoking in a comfortable silence as the sun goes down.
Actually the thought of them sharing a cigarette, Zoe having to use Alcinaās quellazaire, and Alcina just watching Zoe hold it wrong.
Zoe sleeps with her face buried into Alcinaās neck. She usually winds up rolling off to the side, but she likes the security for falling asleep (If sheās not doing that then itās her head tucked under Miaās chin while they hold each other)
Even though they havenāt really needed to in a while, Mia and Zoe still use morse code to communicate with each other sometimes.
While still living a domestic life pre-Village, they used to go to pet shelters and just spent time with the animals. Specifically the cats.
They even discussed the idea of getting a pet for a little while. Ultimately fate had other plans and they never did.
While stuck in Dulvey, Mia told Zoe that she was going to take her on the cheesies, most boring, slice of life date ever if they survived.
She got to keep that promise, and on their first day back out in the real world Mia took Zoe to a local state fair for their first official date.
It was cheesy and mundane, as promised, and it was the best day either had in a very long time (even though Mia got sick from one of the rides). They even got to do the stereotypical āKiss on the ferris wheelā thing.
Very few things compare to the feeling Zoe had when Mia spoke for the first time in well over a year. Her voice wasnāt quite the same after not being used for so long, and she still wasnāt talking all the time, but Zoe was mostly consumed with the revelation Mia was actually talking to her and she wasnāt just imagining it.
Itās second only to the feeling of Zoe noticing Miaās relationship with food improving, and her looking less gaunt and more baby-faced like when theyād first met.
Sometimes when Mia finds Zoe taking a nap sheāll just flop on top and join her.
Them reminding each other to take their respective meds constantly.
Sometimes one will just⦠stare at the other for a while. Just admire her face.
Mia just being generally protective over Zoe, especially around large groups of people, or very specific people (like Miranda).
But also Zoe being protective of Mia when she has meltdowns or breakdowns.
Mia attempting to make foods that Marguerite used to make a lot because Zoe talks about how she misses her mamaās cooking.
She never quite gets it right, but Zoe really appreciates the effort.
