send me a ship ask meme: belle/beast edition
@raph-fangirlâ sent me three ships, so iâll be doing them in three separate posts. this is going to be based on the 1991 film, but if somebody wants to see how 2017 changes them by all means send this again :D
the prince. heâs used to being very warm all the time, and his human body is still getting used to not having a layer of insulation on all the time
who texts/rings to check how their day is going
this is about equal, iâd say - they both like checking in on each other. belle does it a LOT after the curse first breaks - seeing the man you love almost die does things to you
whoâs the most creative when it comes to gifts
belle, through necessity of growing up relatively poor. she likes giving things she made (a hand-crocheted blanket was her first anniversary present to the prince), and the prince likes giving her books, so it works out pretty well
who gets up first in the morning
belle, since she grew up as a working girl. the prince hates this and is generally moody until he has had some coffee
who suggests new things in bed
again, both, but the prince cries at little character moments you wouldnât expect him to. (âBUT THE BABY IN LES MIS IS GAVROCHEâ âsweetheart he isnât even dead yetâ âTHEY JUST GAVE HIM AWAYâ)
who gives unprompted massages
the prince, partly just because he can now that he doesnât have massive claws anymore
who fusses over the other when theyâre sick
the prince is the biggest fusspot over belle, who just waives him off 90% of the time
who has the most embarrassing taste in music
the prince likes riffing on belleâs music, but he feels more embarrassed about his own tastes
who collects something unusual
the prince likes collecting seashells
who takes the longest to get ready
belle, because her room is a tip and it takes forever to find everything. princeâs room is also a tip, but a well-organised one
who is the most tidy and organised
belle likes a tidy workspace but has a messy room. the prince . . . generates mess
who gets most excited about the holidays
the prince, because of all the times he missed out on during the curse. the castle is decorated to the max at christmastime, and belle  finds it adorable how into it he gets
who is the big spoon/little spoon
who gets most competitive when playing games and/or sports
who starts the most arguments
neither of them have the best tempers, but belle tends to pick her battles whereas the prince semi-explodes over little things he doesnât really care about
who suggests that they buy a pet
what couple traditions they have
they love reading plays together, but especially love re-reading romeo and juliet around the princeâs birthday.Â
what tv shows they watch together
doctor who, gilmore girls, victorian documentaries
what other couple they hang out with
i have a headcanon that cinderellaâs prince is the beastâs older brother. the four of them get along great, and hang out semi-regularly. double dates tend to be awkward, so itâs usually a âhang out at homeâ kind of affair.
how they spend time together as a couple
pretty much what we see in the film, but more kissing
belle. the prince loves them, as long as theyâre not roses. roses have a negative effect on him
belle, through necessity, although neither of them really cook
send me a ship and iâll tell you
