also since im hear ive been dying for weeks to know more about Crouch Srs wives had they been been in a relationship. do you have hcs or thoughts? I know theyre not your main babies so if you dont wanna talk about them dw !!
My deepest apologies for this ask taking so incredibly long to answer, my dear moss! The heat was melting my brain, and, unfortunately, I made the decision to retreat to a country with even more heat. Not the most calculated move, I must admit, but alas!
Seniorwives might not be my main babies, but I still think of them fairly often, so I'll gladly tell you everything the voices have, so far, revealed to me. However, my answer to this might be a lot more discombobulated and perhaps not as fleshed out as it would usually be, since this is one of the most recent (crack) ships that my eyes have been opened to. Therefore, it is all still a bit over the place and mainly based on vibes.

Liza has a fiery and judgemental temperament, whereas Annabella is sweet, gentle, and understanding. They are the embodiment of the one who lashes out x the one who apologises on their behalf.
There's an age gap of 12 years between the two of them
Liza is the primary breadwinner, since she works as a ballet teacher at an esteemed opera house, while Annabella stays at home and instructs both of their sons in art, philosophy, mathematics, physics, politics, etc.
They bond over their shared passion for music, theatre, and the flaws of their ex-husband. This would never happen in my default canon.
Liza is the dominant one in their relationship, but both love to be the pillow princess. Liza is more degrading in bed, while Annabella is loving and tender. It unlocks sides to both of them that they didn't know they had. #self-discovery
If their parenting styles could be described as good-cop-bad-cop, then Liza would be the bad cop and Annabella the good cop. Liza is the strict and firm hand that keeps Barty in line, whereas Annabella is the caring nature that Bénja needs to not crack under pressure.
Their family trips include visits to art galleries, opera performances, botanical gardens, and shopping sprees. No iPad kids allowed.
Annabella's intellect often challenges Liza's internalised misogyny. They can debate the societal role of women for hours. Since Annabella is disgustingly educated (Barty got his smarts from his mother, and I will die on that hill), she often wins these arguments or, at least, forces Liza to reflect on her opinions.
She, in turn, is extremely attracted to Annabella's competence, which she had a hard time admitting. After all, women can't be that competent, can they? (Yes, they can.)
Annabella took one look at this older and slightly embittered woman and went, "I can fix her." It worked.
And to make up for the long wait on my response:
