Lancing Lovers
who cooks normally?: Lancette, and probably uses meat she hunted herself. Thankfully Pyptil’s culinary ineptitude is not an inherited thing.
how often do they fight?: Not that often, and they probably resolve them quickly. If anything they probably mostly argue over little personal quirks that they only notice now that they really, truly live together and spend a lot of time together.
what do they do when they’re away from each other?: Lancette does her hunting thing, goes for walks outside, visits her other quadmates (well, quadmate, since her kismesis is still dead). Hoplite probably has some sort of training he does to stay in shape, and watches TV while acknowledging how stupid it is.
nicknames for each other?: She calls him “Gil”, obviously, and I guess I could see him maybe calling her Osy or Syn or Synta.
who is more likely to pay for dinner?: Probably Hoplite.
who steals the covers at night?: Lancette I think. Though I could see it going either way
what would they get each other for gifts?: l could see Hoplite bringing her quality spears he’s obtained in his travels, at least until she gets what ends up becoming her ancestral weapon (and that could also be a gift from him because why not). Lancette would probably give him clothes made from the skin and fur of her kills.
who remembers things?: Definitely Lancette
who cusses more?: Probably Hoplite.
what would they do if the other one was hurt?: Hoplite probably knows a lot of first aid procedures and such, so if Lancette were hurt he could probably do a pretty job of patching her up. Lancette knows… less, so she’d do what she could, and if that wasn’t enough she’d probably find some way to get hold of Subsistr so that she could heal him instead.
who kissed who first?: We never really talked much about how their courtship/early relationship went… this could go either way but I’m gonna say Lancette because she’s more of a romantic.
who made the first move?: Prooobably Hoplite. He had prior sexual experience (with Viorel’s ancestor) whereas Lancette probably didn’t, so she was probably very awkward and unsure of what to do and he had to sort of take her through it. (Funny because with their Beforan selves it was exactly the opposite)
who started the relationship?: Again, Lancette is more of a romantic so it was probably her.
