They definitely would!  While it’s not with Dylan, an early prototype idea I had for Micah and Peyton is that they both have matching Pokemon themed outfits that they use in contests, based off of their main water Pokemon. For Micah, it’s Gyrados themed while for Peyton, it’s Milotic.  The outfits where meant to be used it some kind of tag-team contest the two would enter together, where Micah specifically designed the outfits for the two of them.  Whether I develope this idea much is up in the air, but it’s canon that the two wear the outfits at some point.

04. What are their favorite traits about their lover? (one psychological and one physical) Micah has a thing for muscular, somewhat rugged looking men, so he likes Dylan’s overall physique.  In particular though, he enjoys his upper body (those toned abs and muscular arms are 👌), since Dylan typically wears shirts that don’t leave much to the imagination.  Micah’s prone to getting a bit handsy with him, resting his hand on his upper arm when the two are standing together or (if he’s feeling more forward), resting his hand on Dylan’s chest.

For his personality, Micah most loves his sense of humor and lightheartedness. With Peyton, he likes his dedication and bravery (which are traits Dylan has as well), but Peyton is a lot more serious than Dylan.  When Micah isn’t play-flirting, he’s prone to being too serious as well, so while he and Peyton are similar in that sense, they also fuel that aspect of each other. With Dylan, Micah is able to loosen up more, as Dylan’s humor softens up some of Micah’s hard edges and he’s able to relax around him. They compliment each other in this regard, since Micah adds more structure to Dylan’s life and gets him to take take important issues seriously.

05. Are they sexually confident or more of the shy type? He’s a mix of both to some degree. He certainly gives the impression of being sexually confident with how flirtatious he acts, but when it actually comes down to it, he’s more of the shy type. Or rather, he starts off shy and the longer the relationship progresses, the more confident he becomes as he grows more comfortable around his partner. His lack of experience in relationships factors into this as Peyton and Dylan are the only two people he’s been involved with. Micah takes relationships very seriously, so he’s not one to sleep with someone unless he actually has feelings for them.  This, coupled with him being nervous about pleasing his partner, means he’s more tentative and shy at first. As he gains confidence though, he’s very open to trying new things and takes pride in being about to please his partner.

17. Does your character have dreams of getting married and/or having children? He would like to get married some day, but isn’t in a rush to make it happen.  He likes how his own parents did it, with the really long phase of dating and then getting married once they decided they wanted children. Micah would likely follow a similar pattern.

As for children, he’d want either 1 or 2, and I tend to picture him with a son in the future.

18. What kind of home would they want to live in? Where would they place this abode? He’d want a home by the ocean, something with a lot of clear walls or windows that he could see out of to enjoy the view. It’d be very modern with a lot of whites and cool colors as the overall color scheme. Ideally, he’d want it somewhere sort of isolated surrounded by nature, but since he does like being around other people, it being surrounded by nature would take priority. He likes Sootopolis and expects to live their most of his life as part of his duty as the next guardian of the Cave of Origin, but would be up for living anywhere if he were able to escape that duty.
