Found another one of these thingies while perusing through my Pinterest feed, so I'm doing it for Callista x Varré and for Katariah x Patches (still figuring out Esmerae x Ranni so no thingy for them for now). First up is Callista x Varré. I'll answer most of these but not all of them so my brain doesn't shrivel up and die halfway through, lol. At least the ones I like or are the most applicable. Because these questionnaires are typically aimed at characters in modern settings, the answers will be mostly for Modern AU. But some may also apply to Elden Ring. Hope you guys like it and if not, that's cool too👍🏼💖
Who is the most affectionate?
Calli. They're both affectionate but she tends to initiate most of the physical acts of affection. However if Varré's feeling particularly needy, he'll go and fetch Calli for cuddles and kisses (you can imagine what that leads up to🤭)
Whenever Calli says she knows what she's doing and then it all goes wrong, and Varré's like "I told you it wasn't going to work but you never listen to me. Why do I even bother?" and then Calli's like "Alright alright, relax. At least we know this method doesn't work", and then Varré complains that she's wasting time and resources improvising instead of just doing what he says or letting him handle it, and Calli complains that he loses his temper too quickly instead of going about things more calmly, and they start arguing.
Calli. Due to childhood trauma she tends to blame herself for things even if she's not at fault, so she's first to ask Varré for forgiveness. In some cases Varré lets pride get the best of him and refuses to apologize first, even if he's the one in the wrong. Only after Calli apologizes to him does Varré then apologize to her and goes on to say how he was wrong.
Favorite (non-sexual) activity to do together?
Watching true crime documentaries and making predictions about what weapons/tools/methods were used to commit the crime, the murderer's motives, common documentary tropes, etc.
Who drives and who rides shotgun?
Varré drives while Calli rides shotgun. Calli doesn't drive, nor does she know how to xD.
Who is more likely to carry the other?
Varré. Both because Calli jumps into his arms and makes him carry her, and because he likes the feeling of Calli being at his mercy. He can choose to set her down and make her beg for him to pick her back up, or go against her wishes and carry her to a different spot she didn't ask for, and get a kick from her whining about it, lol.
Varré calls Calli "Amber" (it's the alternative name she goes by and the name she gave when she and Varré first met), and Calli calls Varré "Babygirl" in Modern AU, lol. I'm thinking of having her call him "Shepard" in Elden Ring since he calls the Tarnished (and Calli at times) "lambkin". If Calli were to call him Babygirl in ER he'd probably be like "Not only are you calling me an infant but are assuming my gender as well??" xD. Or maybe he'd like it who knows, lol.
Who sings along with the radio?
Calli. If she were to do the "Try Not To Sing" challenge, she'd lose immediately xD. Varré at most will softly hum along to the song and nod his head in rhythm. Otherwise he's just internally vibing to the music.
Who always wants to take selfies with the other?
Calli of course, lol. Varré doesn't mind as long as she keeps the photos in her gallery for her own viewing pleasure. He's not big on having photos or videos taken of his face unless it's for important things like his driver's license, work ID, passport, etc. Much less posted on the internet.
Who likes to playfully tease the other?
Both. Calli's a flirt and Varré being the way he is he'd be doing nothing but teasing his partner.
Who has the weirdest taste in their music?
I'd say both, though Varré's music taste leans more towards obscure and unpopular rather than weird, but maybe to the general public it comes off as unusual. While Calli, in conjunction with her regular music, likes listening to meme songs like the He-Man "What's Up" song, and mashup songs like "Stayin' Alive x In Da Club" and "You Reposted In The Wrong Neighborhood" xD.
Who remembers what the other one always orders at a restaurant?
Varré. He has a thing for keeping tabs on people, so he knows a lot of the things Calli likes and dislikes. In this case the meals she typically orders. Before she can even open her mouth Varré would've already told the waiter what she wants, lol. Entree, sides, beverage, and dessert.
Mostly Varré, but Calli sometimes takes the reigns (they're both switches).
Both. Don't think this needs any further elaboration, lol. Just depends on the situation.
Varré, when he gets really into it. Every kiss with Calli is amazing, but sometimes he feels the moment a little more strongly and kisses her more aggressively. Which of course she loves.
Calli. She'll squirm and giggle maniacally, sometimes to the point of tears. And of course Varré takes pleasure in torturing her like that, lol.
Who kills the scary bugs?
Varré. Luckily Calli & Kat's house doesn't get pests, just the occasional house spider and moths. But Varré will instantly kill any creepy crawlies he sees, including moths and house spiders because he can't care enough to spare them, which makes Calli die on the inside because she loves moths, and it's thanks to the house spiders that they don't get flies or mosquitoes or other bugs. Calli will hear a loud thud and be like "What was that?", and Varré will respond with "Oh I just killed a bug", and Calli's like "What kind?", and Varré says "Some brown spider. Bastard was close to dropping down on me", and then Calli immediately screams "NOOOOO!!!😭" xD.
Who asks the weird questions at random in the middle of the night?
Calli 1000% xD. Whenever she can't sleep she'll start getting existential and ask the stupidest shit. And she won't stop until she gets answers. Before moving in with Calli & Kat, Varré would get woken up during the late night hours by Calli textbombing him stupid philosophical questions. As much as it annoys him, he still entertains her in hopes that it'll tire her out.
Varré. Not all the time but most times. He sometimes has the gall to want to spoon Calli without giving her some of the blanket xD. She's now in the process of making him a quilt blanket so he can stop his hogging, lol (rose and blood-themed because of course🌹🩸)
Who cries during certain films or when reading sad books?
Calli. Especially if it's about found family, living with an uncaring family, or being an outcast.
Who gets scared during horror films?
Neither. They love watching horror films and are known to get "excited" during them, if ya know what I mean😉 (Netflix: "Are you still watching?")
Who cuts the others hair?
Calli, but she only cuts the ends of Varré's hair to avoid split ends and help it grow better. Otherwise she just brushes it and styles it for him depending on the occasion.
Who says "I love you" first?
If it means now in their current relationship, then they both say "I love you" to eachother at random. As for who said it first when they were starting out, it was Varré. He meant it genuinely but in part it was because he wanted Calli to say it to him, after noticing she hadn't said it once since starting their relationship. Calli was the one who confessed her feelings first after Varré gave her the incentives, but she hesitated to say "I love you" because she wasn't sure if Varré saw their the relationship the same way she did, and didn't wanna ruin it. Though it was true that he had a different perspective at first, he did truly love her and still does.
Who tells their friends/family about the relationship first?
Calli. In both Elden Ring and Modern AU she told Kat about Varré almost immediately after she met him, and tells her everything that goes on between them (maybe not everything but it's enough for Kat to tell Calli to quit yapping, lol). As for family, Calli cut ties with them so they don't know much about her life after she left home, nor do they care (especially in Elden Ring since she's all the way in The Lands Between, they wouldn't be able to know anything about her if they tried). In Modern AU, Calli tells her uncle Joziah and aunt Renata about Varré some time down the line over the phone. They're the only real family she has whom she can talk freely with about anything, especially Varré.
What do their friends/family think of the relationship?
Like I said previously, Calli's family doesn't know much and they don't care to know. Kat on the other hand doesn't like Varré and always bickers with him because A) He's a man, B) He's a creep, and C) He's a shady, condescending bastard. But Kat's not a saint either and she's in no place to tell Calli who she can love. As long as Varré truly loves her and treats her well enough (and abides by the house rules in Modern AU), Kat will let him keep his kneecaps and won't interfere with his and Calli's relationship. Joziah and Renata, Calli's uncle and aunt, are pretty much of the same mind when it comes to Varré in Modern AU, in the sense that as long as he loves and looks after Calli he's okay in their book. As for Varré he only ever talks about Calli openly with Ansbach. With others it's in passing, and even if they ask he won't say much. He prefers to keep his romantic/sexual affairs private.
Calli. Her meals are more substantial and flavorful. Varré cooks decently enough to not go hungry, but don't count on him to impress guests at a dinner party, lol.
Who wears the other's jacket?
Calli. She sometimes wears Varré's leather jacket, and he can't help but think she looks hot in it, lol.
Who whispers inappropriate things in the other's ear during inappropriate times?
Both. And it almost always ends with them doing inappropriate things in a secluded area.
What would be their theme song?
What do they do when they're away from eachother?
They think about eachother while going about their day as usual. In Modern AU Calli thinks about what things she and Varré can do the next time they're able to go out together or visit eachother, which is pretty much what Varré does as well. In Elden Ring while Calli is journeying throughout the Lands Between, she daydreams about Varré and whatever she finds along the way that reminds her of him she brings back to the Rose Church. As for Varré he ponders on his and Calli's relationship, and what they'd do together if the Mohgwyn Dynasty were to come to fruition. They basically got eachother on the brain 24/7.
A headcanon about them that stabs your feels?
Varré tries to kill Calli for slaying Mohg, but she manages to escape into the Land of Shadow. She becomes a severely heartbroken wreck and Varré is left an emotional mess, having lost both his lord and the love of his life.
A headcanon that mends the previous one?
They reunite after all is said and done in the Land of Shadow. Varré at first tries killing Calli again when the memory and feelings of Mohg's death resurface with Calli's return, but Ansbach stops him and Varré regains clarity (yes both he and Thiollier are alive in this story, fuck you Fromsoftware). Varré and Calli forgive each other's transgressions and mend their relationship.
(I'm honestly a little confused with the last two questions because idk if it's asking about a hc that's actually canon, or a hc that i think about at times for fun but isn't canon. Me is big stupid, lol. Both of these are canon btw).
