Thank you for the forgiveness, I can't believe my own stupidity. Your command shall be followed, my dear yume queen~ I have to do it like this at the moment because my Tumblr is being stupid as fuck but I'm determined to finish this damn request.

8: Who gets jealous easier?
I think it's a mix of both of us, though leaning a little more towards Atem. Despite the fact that he knows how loyal I am to the relationship and how oblivious I am to romantic gestures from strangers or friends, if he sees someone getting a little too close to me and/or making me a bit uncomfortable, he's not gonna be afraid to pull me close to him and/or hold my hand in full view of the persons gaze to throw them off. This mostly happens with complete strangers.
With me, it's not so much jealousy as it is an initial and pretty normal relationship fear. I know he loves me. He takes the time to tell me every day and show me that he does. I'm never worried about this type of thing with friends, but if I see him talking to a random girl, I'm going to get a little worried. Initially, at that moment, I may get a little possessive, but it'd in private that I'm a little pouty and definitely more clingy and affectionate.
16: How do they hype each other up?
So this ties in with the last one a little bit. He knows of my fears and insecurities with relationships. I tell him because I don't want to hide things like that from him. On days where my mind fills with these said insecurities, or just any low or stressful day in general, his way of hyping me up is quality time, words of affirmation, and sometimes even a little gift or two. It's his own little way of making me believe in my capabilities and making me feel better about myself, and trusting in his love for me. Not sure if that counts, but I like to think it does, hehe.
How do I hype up Atem? Definite words of affirmation and affection. Lots of affection. More than usual, if possible. When he felt like he was making no progress in retrieving his memories, whenever he had to make difficult decisions for a duel, and especially after he lost a duel. All of those times were where I needed to find a way to make him feel better, so I do it the same way he does for me. He sometimes tells me that I do a better job, making him feel better than he does to me, which I completely disagree with. But if it works, it works!
So basically? We do the same things for each other, and it works every time, hehe.
