The first character I first fell in love with:

AZ. You can’t have a good adventure party without magical birb  

The character I never expected to love as much as I do now:

I wouldn’t call it “love”, but probably Ruel after his S2 story with his pet and S3 about his long-lost love.

The character everyone else loves that I don’t:

People seemed to like Remington a lot, and for me he was just okay.

The character I love that everyone else hates:

I don’t think I have one here either.

The character I used to love but don’t any longer:

Adamai’s been going path of assholery during the last storyline, hope he’s good now. He used to be such cool lil bro. 

The character I would totally smooch:

JUST ONE? You remember this show is French, right? There are a lot of smoochables. Cleo seems free right now. 

The character I’d want to be like:

Oh you bet I’d like to be able to portal myself everywhere like Yugo.

The character I’d slap:

Adamaii, again, for what he has done lately. 

A pairing that I love:

Yumalia, obvy. Go on a few dates, smooch some more and iron out kinks, and you will sail.  

A pairing that I despise:

So, first of all, you get a bonus point for pasting the questions so I don’t have to look up the post. That was very, very thoughtful of you, my dear friend. 

43. Who wins the stuffed animals at the carnival for the other one?

I have a feeling this question has a deeper one: who wants to win the stuffed animal and who actually does it. Because I think Pinpin wants, but in the end, it is Eva, who outperforms him and wins the toy he envisioned for her, for him.

44. Who is active/ Who is lazy?

Eva is more active, but she is also a mom, so she gets a free pass for any laziness, she deserves time for herself any time she wants. Gods help them because then Tristepin needs to be active in her place.

45. Who is more likely to get drunk?

Tristepin, I’d say. For all the manly Iopish culture he was brought in, he could be very light drinker. Plus, it would lead to comedic situations.

As for my health.... 

- I knew it was a mistake to get the twins matching clothes. - Eva mumbled, alternating between each of her newborn children. - I don't know, I think they look cool!

Tristepin lifted up on of them - their son, presumably. The twins more matching hoodies with wabbit ears, and while they indeed look cute, the two had to constantly lift them to see which one had the slightly pointier ears to know which one has already been fed or cleaned.

It proved to be much more difficult than they thought - their Iop daughter has already learned how to crawl over her brother to take his place, and she has been given extra bottle of milk.

- I know, we could buy Flopin a hoodie with a cute little antlers! - Tristepin suggested, mimicking them with his fingers - He would look a bit like Yugo, though... - Or you could have bought them in different colours...

Eva sighed, and looked at her daughter, who finally seemed to have drank enough milk to be satisfied. She cleared her lips and the girl closed her eyes. In a grand scheme of things, this really was a minuscule problem. She smiled and gave her a soft kiss on the forehead.

And then Eva noticed her daughter suddenly had blonde hair.

- Pinpin - Eva raised her voice - Which one do you have, again?

No, thank you for your artworks! And for your help from yesterday too!

- Are you tired? Here, I’ll carry you the rest of the way.

Eva knew her kids weren't tired at all; au contraire, they seemed to possess limitless supply of energy, but at least in her arms there were way fewer chances of them running over a cliff after a stray bow-meow. And so, despite some initial resistance from the two energetic rapscallions, she picked up Flopin and Elely, and once the two kids felt their mother's warmth, they nested themselves against her chest, listening to her heart-beat.

And just when they were about to fall asleep, Eva's yelp and a sudden jolt upwards woke them up, when Tristepin took Eva into his arms, and continued their stroll as if it was nothing. After all, she has already carried them for nine months, so it was time for him to take the job...

===============================================

- You smell nice. - Tristepin's voice surprised Evangelyne when he sat next to her by the campfire.

The Cra eyed the Iop for a while, as she has never heard any compliment like that from him. She wasn't that used to getting them, and usually when Tristepin would try to woo her, he would make a fool of himself. But now, with Amalia, Ruel, Yugo and Adamaï were asleep, with an audience of one, he wasn't as keen to show off.

- Uhm, thanks. - she mumbled - It's nothing fancy, like Amalia's... - I think she could repel a horde of mosquitoes with her perfume.

Eva had to put hand over her mouth in order not to burst into laughter at a joke about her best friend.

- Yeah, she does that... And...

She paused for a moment, gathering her thoughts.

- Why do-do you like it? - I think it reminds me of home. - Tristepin took a stick and began drawing in the sand. - I think Master Goultard was adding some spice or herb to the roast he was making, and it kinda smelled like it.

"Of course", Eva thought. "I remind him of food".

And yet, despite his unabashed comment, Eva stood up and sat a bit closer to him, so he could smell her better.

FOR SHAME Don’t worry, I got you covered :)

===================

 - Come on, Daddy, you have to work out to burn that belly fat! You said it yourself!  - Yeah, you can do it!

Attracted by their children’s eager voices, Evangelyne looked inside their bedroom, expecting to see Tristepin sparring with them. Instead, she nearly fainted when she saw their children falling up into the air and then landing on a bed Tristepin was nonchalantly throwing up and down on his back, with each pushup he was performing.

 - PINPIN!  - Oh, hi Eva!  - Hi Mom! 

The twins answered equally nonchalantly, landing on the bedding, unsure why their mom looks so angry.

 - I-Why-You-WHY? - Eva screamed, silencing the three  - Oh, come on, mom, don’t be angry at dad - the twins hoped off the bed.  - And look, we have pillows!

Elely proudly showed that underneath her dress was a feather-stuffed pillow.

 - Pinpin... don’t you think it’s a bit irresponsible?    - Oh, come on, they suggested it. - he cooed, hoping to appease her.  - Oh, my Cra... I swear, sometimes it feels as if I had triplets. - she hid her face in hands, though she looked up at once - And no, don’t give me any ideas...  - Okay, I won’t. But I gotta stay fit. - Tristepin quickly replied.

And before she could react, Eva’s world turned upside down as she was grabbed bridal-style, and began moving up and down, when Tristepin used her as barbells, much to their children’s, and ultimately hers amusement.

It didn’t take long for Tristepin to demand more challenge, and each twin hopped on onto his arms as an extra weight. And with each pull-up, Evangelyne sneaked a kiss into Tristepin’s face, motivating him to keep training. 

manueillustrations replied to your post “Okay, so I want to open some proper prompts, but I don’t want to get...”

I would say longer one. It gives more time to elaborate a story. But if you open some, you know what I'll ask for :3

Okay, then, you asked for it.

I’m gonna limit myself to, say, 15, plus the two that have been sent long time ago. No promptlists, you have to be creative. (But of course you know my ships and my kinks if handholding and kisses isn’t enough)

 - Nothing? - Eva asked - Nothing. - Tristepin replied, swallowing loudly, their kids repeating after him.

Eva looked at their two kids. None of the three were good liars.

 - So… is it nothing, or something? - she crossed her arms.

Without rising her voice, the three knew there was no point in defending their position.

 - It’s something. - Definitely something. - Major something.

Eva sighed. She parted her way through the kitchen doorway they were blocking, expecting a traditional pandemonium.

But instead, she saw a dozen different fruits, cut in shapes and sizes, laid on the fancy silver platters. Before she could say the words she was holding in her throat, expecting to scold the three, her children and husband threw themselves at her.

 - Auntie Amalia gave us the fruits - Flopin replied to the question Eva had on her mind - And we didn’t make mess this time - Elely added - We cleaned everything. 

Eva smiled and gave each of them a warm hug.

 - Well, then, I think that calls for a feast then.

And the four of them sat at the table, eager to dig in the food they’ve been preparing all the afternoon.
