I mean. It'd be off-brand of me to not submit christrev for the thoughts machine. But I fear we've said A LOT about those two already.
So..... i offer a dynamic that i have been violently chewing on recently: Robchristrev
(ignore the fact that half of that is still christrev)
HIYA! Right, so I know you submitted the same question to the wonderful @rixareth who answered it SO WELL but I will try my hardest to give you something original because YES these three are fascinating together!!!
I guess I can start with the individual dynamics and then see how they mix so...
Robert & Chris = These two we know. Oh boy do we know. They are both obsessed with each other in their own strange way. They egg each other on, they stroke each other's ego, they break each other down to feel better about themselves and also have an inextricable part of themselves linked to the approval of the other. Safe to say: I am a fan. Though in terms of these two in a romantic sense (which is what i assume you mean) it's obviously quite toxic but in a way quite cathatic for them both. They need to be part of everything about the other person, so also being part of the romantic side just feels like the next thing to conquer (I mean, that is definitely part of the reason we have canon RobCelia and Chris dating Robert's sister). So yeah, loads of obsession going on here.
Chris & Trevor = What's interesting about Christrev compared with Grovebean is that strangely enough the root of Grovebean, even the toxic stuff, is a strange type of affection. Like they like each other and see themselves in each other which means that they become their own worst enemies. For christrev....it's just hate. These two grate against each other which causes tension whereas Chris and Robert are SO similar it causes tension. Romantically this means a lot of calling each other out, a lot of arguments and trying to pull back the pieces and build themselves up, because these two NEED to figure shit out because the whole society needs their relationship, professionally at least, to work. So, not smooth sailing, but perhaps more constructive than grovebean could be (though I feel like if grovebean actually had a conversation about what the fuck was going on between them it would have to become a therapy session so quickly and hey that might actually help loads).
Trevor & Robert = I love these two. Robert is so demeaning of Trevor's role backstage that these two don't really have a clash of personalities so much as there is just an inherent lack of respect which is fascinating. Like I feel like Chris has to have some respect for backstage folks but Robert just pulls no punches (the drama festival tells us as much). Though I think in a strange way this makes Trevor feels like he needs to prove himself. Less in a needy way but more in a when he helps Robert on stage he will give him a Look. Like see, see what I just did there, am I fucking useless now? Either I feel like Trevor could bring Robert down a notch or two if given the chance and Robert would gladly point out all of Trevor's glaring flaws. There would be no affection and no attempt to build things but enough oddly accurate criticism for the pair of them to sit and stew in it long enough to realise 'shit. He has a point'. Come back the next day, mumble some apologies and move on with their lives.
So this means together we get something which can only be described as a car crash where at least we can say just the front got the brunt of the damage. That meaning that, after the initial force, I think these guys could pull something together. A routine if you will. I feel like in a strange way they become their own self-sustaining eco-system where if one pair are fighting, which there will be a lot of with this trio, they can go to the other to vent. On top of that when two of them need a break, they can leave them with the other while they cool off.
Do I think it is a perfect eco-system? No... There is no way Robert is fully okay sharing Chris in a sense that this man needs to Win whatever he is doing so winning at being Chris' boyfriend over Trevor feels like a realistic goal for him to decide he needs to achieve. This would lead to a very odd series of events that I'm fairly certain Chris is not entirely against. Additionally i feel like Chris and Robert will manage to piss Trevor off with their egos that they both will need to apologise which is quite a cute image. And both Chris and Robert such at manual labour so having useful boyfriend Trevor around is beneficial for them both hehe
I hope this was good, I actually had more thoughts that I was expecting but then again I am really tired rn so I hope this is readable. THANKS FOR THE ASK KESSS!!!! ALWAYS APPRECIATED!!!!!
I am slow but I do promise I am getting through these asks, just giving them their due consideration. My inbox is always open for you lovely people :)
