How's the dancing with the darksider bois?

Hey bestie!!!

Dancing with the nephilim babes:

War:

Stiff as a board. Listen,he has 2 left feet. Hes huge and clumsy because of his size-He tries though. He catches up when I explain that dancing is like moving across a Battlefield,presice And calculated moves with certain ease.

Needless to say he finds his his footing soon enough. (He really likes to pick me up during dancing) (And if strife ever gets wind of this...lord help him hes not living it down)

Fury:

She likes to dance with me,she doesnt dance otherwise. Its all fluid movements and very waltz/ballet like, she enjoys watching me dance and she simply lends herself as a tool for the more couple dances/moves that requires another person (think of ballet and that kinda stuff)

Strife:

Unsurprisingly hes the best one at dancing,he enjoys being goofy and feel the music in his body. He likes twirls and more of a swing/square dancing kinda stuff.

His movements are swift,feather light and very fun. He can be romantic when he wants to,its usually slower which means he only waltzes with me during specific times/situations: after a long mission,he or I are going through a rough time, he missed me or hes feeling particularly romantic.

Given the fact hes called the spirit of eternal unrest, he can only handle a slow pace for so Long. But it just makes it all the more special when it happens.

Death:

He can dance,he chooses not to.

Maybe he danced back when he was a young nephilim,seeing his peers celebrate conquests and battles won. Now the concept carries a bittersweet taste to it.

Usually he just indulges me if we are alone,I need cheering up or he needs to take his mind off of his past. Unsurprisingly,he likes to slow dance the most. He'll goof off once in a blue moon (as a birthday gift,mostly. And we have to be ALONE. And im talking MILES OF NOBODY BEING REMOTELY CLOSE. HE HAS A REPUTATION TO MAINTAIN)

He slowdancing allows him to hearmy heartbeat,my breath reassuring him im there and not just a Fantasy in his head. It allows him to connect with me and his inner world in a safe way. He preffers to dance during the night and when it rains,he likes to have that ambient noise to remind himself that things are different now,that he can slow down and Open up.

Bonus!!!!

Muria:

Muria is a bit of a wild card. She likes the intimacy of waltzing,but she likes to goof off and allow herself to exit her pensive mindstate.

It all depends on the mood shes in. Either way,she enjoys herself and laughs a lot when we're both goofing off or taking it chill with a gentle sway.

Samael:

Sammy here only knows the concept of dancing. Given his size he lets me dance in his palm and hold one of his massive fingers to "include him" and because he likes triwling me around.

But,when nobody is watching,he dances like a goof in his throne room. He likes to shake a leg every once in a while but you didnt hear it from me!

First, let’s talk about the environment these hardy people come from.

The Forge Lands are typically cold. No matter the region you're in or the season that it is, it is cold. Wear a coat or pelt when you visit!

The water is crisp, clean and so, so blue. You can see down at least 20 feet in one of their grand lakes. 

The air smells of sweet pine and snow, as such, most Makers carry this scent with them. Smoke from their forges and the mountainous air.

The Makers would definitely enjoy colder weather compared to warmer climates as that is what they were born with and are used to. They’re the “Wear shorts and tank top in a blizzard” type of kid at school

More under the cut. I kinda went ham on these headcanons rip
