#taz.

it sounds kinda silly but rami would probably fight back tears too because he's witnessed the hardships mc has been put through and he gets it. if given the okay, he'd definitely hold them and let them cry for as long as they need and hide his own tears.

rory would start fussing immediately, telling them that it's okay and she's there if they need a shoulder. she'd offer to sing something calming and sweet to get mc to think about happier thoughts, and keep it up until her voice disappeared or mc felt better.

taz wouldn't know what to do, he doesn't deal with intimate displays of such sort. still, he'd offer a tissue and a few friendly words, maybe give them a little squeeze on the shoulder if they will it. could also sit near them in silence, as a grounding presence.

The middle drawing is of Hollis, who has their right hand on their hip and is holding a bat with wire on it that’s resting on their shoulder with the other. They’re wearing an open club jacket with a hornet patch on the upper right part of their chest. On the other side is a nonbinary pride pin. They’re wearing jeans. They’re wearing two eyebrow piercings, two stud earrings, black lipstick, and black eyeliner. The sides of their head are shaved and they have a bun. Next to them is writt3n “6′1″The right drawing is of Keith. He’s wearing a club jacket and crossing his arms. He’s looking to the right, frowning and talking. He has long hair]

rami hates it since it's not chosen by mc voluntarily. besides, it's kind of theatrically egyptian too, and his history nerd brain is having a hard time since the sekhemnetu were never proven to hail from said country.

rory actually thinks it looks pretty! could use more dark tones and maybe a bit more edge, but mc looks good in it. she'll love whatever mc wears though, and will always try adding a little leather to it.

taz thinks it's hot. though you could be wearing a sack of potatoes and he'd still think it's hot. learning that it's for someone's wicked pleasure? not hot. though he won't say anything straight up, the needling z would get is extensive.

Also how would they feel if Mc didn't have any?

ohh, a question like an onion, many layers here.

taz has the most sexual experience, but is woefully behind on his romantic exp. doesn't commit, you know, moves around too much. he'd be a bit spooked if romanced by a mc with no experience, and it'd take him some time to agree to, uh, share his experience.

rory has been in a bunch of short-term romantic and sexual relationships, but they never last. she doesn't mind the failed relationships either, and wouldn't care one way or another if mc had no experience; that's what's so fun about life. learning and finding what you like, and she'd love helping them explore.

rami is the most inexperienced of the bunch with, pardon my french, zero game. so oblivious to flirting that even if someone had tried, he wouldn't notice unless it was really on the nose. he'd actually find it relieving if mc didn't have any experience because hello?? that's an honest to god (heh) deity? also intimidating but it's okay!

How would the Ro's react to this?

absolutely! the mc is always gonna be at least a little bit uncomfortable with being touched (since they haven't felt a friendly touch since the industrial revolution so it's strange) but I'd like to implement a choice to control over how they react to physical contact :) i just have to see how to code it properly so it tracks.

rami gets it, he's not the biggest touchy-feely guy either so he's okay with it, even if it does make him really, really sad. will blame himself for his family's cruelty.

mal would be devastated, but wouldn't show it. his first reaction would probably be simmering anger, not at mc but everyone who's ever hurt them. he'd find other ways to stay close.

rory has a habit of touching people subconsciously, so she'd be so apologetic, all the time. she'd be mad at herself to begin with, but turn it towards the real cause after a while. she'd get good at stopping herself.
