When falling for the enemy wasn't a part of your plan...

👊 PUNCH - are they quick to violence?

both of them, yes <3 ameht'ana will claw ur face, while tova will prefer to knock you out the min you turn your back

👪 FAMILY - what is their family like? what is your ocs relationship to them? does your oc have any siblings?

🍧 SHAVED ICE - do they still have any objects from their childhood? what significance does it have to them? what would their reaction be if they lost it?

The only thing of emotional value Chris has left, from their time at the two foster homes they were living at, is a little notebook they had filled with food and recipes that they had prepared with said families. If their foster parents at the time allowed it, they would cook with them, and note down what they did for 'later use'. They still go through the notebook sometimes and revisit those dishes, and they would be heartbroken if it was damaged or lost.

Rashmi still has some of her old toys and drawings/creative projects she did as a kid, though most things she and her brother Ranveer donated to other kids that have more use for it now. The toys she has kept to herself are wooden toys her now passed father Aditya has made for her, a small sunspear and many animals from the desert. Her most cherished one was a toy of a 'monster' they'd thought of together when she was small, a jumbled mix of a griffon, a choya and a sand eel. She wouldn’t forgive herself if she lost that...

Considering sylvari don't really have a childhood I'm gonna take an object from Rhiannín's first few months as a fresh sapling. It's her earring, a gift she received from a lovely elderly human woman in Divinity's Reach. Rhiannín had stumbled into her while running errands, and helped her bring them home, where she found out the old lady used to be a jeweler. She was invited to stay for lunch, then for dinner, and while they were cooking and talking together, the old lady was telling her stories of how she met her wife and their adventures together. A few weeks later, Rhiannín received a lovely letter with thanks for the lovely evening and earrings. She wears one earring in her ear, the other is safely kept in a little jewelry box until she finally gets to pierce her other ear. lol She, too, would be very depressed about losing those earrings and the letter.

💋— What are their kisses like?

She hasn't kissed much in her life (she can count the people on one hand), but when she did, it always started slow and quite chaste, very shy and hesitant, considering her Jedi upbringing and them being (officially) against any sort of affection like that. However she does quickly get into it, being bolder with each kiss, but in general staying rather soft.

(also deepy amusing to me that you chose bahash for this ask as well, as he literally. was her first kiss à la 'wym u never kissed before?' 'the jedi made themselves quite clear about it. i didnt.' 'would... you like to be? kissed i mean' and there we go LOL)

☔️— What are they like when they’re emotional? How quickly do they recover?

You can literally see the storm behind her eyes when she's angry, seething like a cooking teapot. Most times she manages to stay this way, quiet and 'collected' but absolutely furious, though it doesn't take much to make her burst and lash out.

She's going to save a little child and take them in, and said child looks very similar to her brother that died in her arms. <3 hihi

🧡— How do they say thank you/show appreciation?

With romantic intentions in mind, he very much is vrupet's kid and knows how to pick his gifts for the right 'thank you', all intentions and meanings of the gift very cleverly thought out. That said, he IS a spymaster after all, so he knows what response would be best suited for the person he's trying to impress.

💖— Are they a showy partner? Do they make grand gestures of love or try to be subtle?

He, personally, is rather private and subtle when it comes to showing affection to the public - he as Vrupet's spymaster knows how much that can betray someone and their intentions. Though if his partner expressed they like being showy and receiving bigger gestures, he absolutely would indulge them no questions asked.
