Who said I love you first?

Adira. None of the three are really what might be called ‘emotionally mature’, but the blonde is the one who would probably be the first to recognise what she feels towards the other two. When she does say it, it would be in a quiet calm moment that would absolutely stun the older two.

Who laughs when the other trips?

All of them. Rion laughs a lot louder while the girls hide theirs behind a hand but they still laugh. Especially because they all try and pretend to be so composed all the time that when it slips it’s utterly hilarious.

Who pays the bills?

Adira and Audelia. Rion, for some reason, finds himself incapable of organising his time in a way that means he can do the bills, no matter how many times he assures the other two that he actually will this time. The younger two take turns sorting out his messes. As always.

Which one makes a bigger deal around the holidays?

Adira. The youngest of them all absolutely loves any holiday of any kind and makes sure that their place looks amazing for each and every one of them. Rion, of course, will do all he can to make sure that each Halloween is significantly better than the last.

Who’s more clumsy?

Audelia. Whilst a lot more graceful than the average person, the shortest of the three seems to lack the exact same level of poise of the other two, but, luckily for her, not to any great extent.

Who checks their daily horoscope?

None. They don’t really go out of their way to check their horoscopes, but if Adira or Audelia do find something funny to read out (usually at Rion’s expense) they do make sure that the other two hear it.

Who sings louder in the car?

Adira. When the three of them are alone together, that’s when they can really just be themselves and have the kind of fun that they want to and, for Adira, that means singing along as loud as she can, which never fails to make the older two smile.

Who leaves the cap off the toothpaste?

No-one. The cap must remain on. Always.

Who is more up to date in pop culture?

Rion. His obsession with knowing things about everyone stretches into the public sphere and that means that no-one who is famous is out of bounds for him. It’s a wonder how he manages to get any work done some days.

Who insists on going to see the newest movies?

All of them. Three very willful people with unique tastes all in a relationship together means for three people who will do everything they can to get them to watch what they want. On days when they feel like treating the others they just book out an entire screen for themselves which often ends with them focusing more on each other than the movie.

Who cries when the abused animal commercials come on?

None. They don’t appreciate these kinds of ads, finding them far too depressing and manipulative but they don’t cry. None of them are usually criers.

Who’s the lighter sleeper?

Adira or Rion. Audelia isn’t a deep sleeper but compared to the taller two she is. It’s a wonder how they manage to get enough sleep to survive but they do. This does mean that when one of them needs to, it doesn’t take much to wake the others up and talk things over.

Who believes in ghosts?

All. Hogwarts is basically infested with ghosts.

Who does the grocery shopping?

Audelia or Adira. Rion’s shopping habits tend to focus more around buying whatever takes his fancy at the time so getting him to stick to a list is quite difficult. In contrast, the girls actually understand what it is that they need to get so they usually end up getting the food in, occasionally together.

Who updates their facebook status more often?

Adira. Rion’s is more focused towards keeping up appearances of a happy couple, while Audelia’s is carefully crafted to ensure propriety but Adira’s, on the other hand, is often filled with a whole load of pictures of all of the things the three of them do together. It’s a marvel that no-one has worked out what they are yet, some days.

Who said I love you first?

Adira. Probably after they’d had a bit too much to drink one night at which point it was promptly ignored. She was the first one to say it sober, too, after recognising it as the ever-growing elephant in the room.

Who laughs when the other trips?

Both. Rion’s is more of a prominent laugh while Adira tries to hide her chuckle behind a hand or by turning away or something like that. If he’s close enough, Rion will often pull Adira down to his level as recompense.

Who pays the bills?

Adira. Each month Rion promises that he will pay the bills this time and each month some piece of work conveniently pops up or he forgets his promise or something like that and Adira ends up doing what she had already been planning to do.

Which one makes a bigger deal around the holidays?

Adira. She makes a point of decorating their place extravagantly for each and every holiday, no room is left without some mark of festivities. For his part, Rion makes sure that each Halloween is substantially better than the last.

Who’s more clumsy?

Neither. They’ve both spent too many years practicing their balance and poise to let it fail them with any amount of regularity.

Who checks their daily horoscope?

Adira. She doesn’t do it every day but often enough to get a general feel for things. She never fails to point out the times when Mercury actually is in retrograde.

Who sings louder in the car?

Rion. With the right Celestina Warbeck song playing he will sing like no-one else can. Adira just laughs along at the spectacle.

Who leaves the cap off the toothpaste?

Neither. If the toothpaste is not being used then the cap must be on. There are no exceptions.

Who is more up to date in pop culture?

Rion. His obsession with finding out people’s secrets stretches to basically every area of life possible, including famous people. What’s surprising is when Adira knows something that Rion doesn’t.

Who insists on going to see the newest movies?

Both. It’s not really them insisting, it’s more pleading or a surprise date to watch something they absolutely have to see. It doesn’t happen too often but it’s cute when it does.

Who cries when the abused animal commercials come on?

Neither. Neither of them could really be called criers so these don’t move them to tears. They’re still sad. If they’re drunk then Adira definitely will and Rion might cry.

Who’s the lighter sleeper?

Both. With how little and how lightly these two sleep it’s a surprise that they actually manage to be functioning adults. On the upside, because they both sleep lightly they’re able to comfort the other at night at a moment’s notice.

Who believes in ghosts?

Both. Hogwarts is the kind of place where belief in ghosts is obvious.

Who does the grocery shopping?

Both. There’s a lot of wine in their trolley but they do tend to be pretty good at sticking to what they need to buy. Other things just make their way in if they feel like being experimental.

Who updates their facebook status more often?

Who said I love you first?

Adira. It was one of the more chill nights where they were sharing bottle of wine together on a sofa it just sort of slips out from her lips. Blandon smiles at her and whispers it back. Everything is right with the world.

Who laughs when the other trips?

Adira. It’s more of a little giggle behind her hand but it still counts as a laugh. Just. On the rare occasions that Adira does trip Blandon just smiles softly down at her.

Who pays the bills?

Both. Neither of them like or dislike doing the bills too much but they just need to get done. They don’t want to force the other into doing them either so it ends up with them splitting the task month by month.

Which one makes a bigger deal around the holidays?

Adira. She enjoys decorating their place up for each and every holiday, paying special attention to the big ones. Blandon thinks it’s too make up for the shitty ones that they had growing up, but he likes her enthusiasm and will happily join in with the decorating, doing most of the heavy lifting and reaching high places himself.

Who’s more clumsy?

Blandon. The poise and elegance in movement that all Purebloods seem to have missed Blandon by a long shot. Whilst not especially clumsy, he has nothing like the grace that Adira has.

Who checks their daily horoscope?

Neither, really. Adira might read out their horoscopes if she happens to stumble across them but they tend not to put any stock in them.

Who sings louder in the car?

Adira. Given the right song, the blonde will happily sing along at the top of her lungs, which is a lot louder than might be expected from her size. Blandon tends to be somewhere between quiet and silent, preferring to smile at the pure happiness on her face.

Who leaves the cap off the toothpaste?

Neither. The cap must always be on the toothpaste. It’s an unspoken rule the two find themselves bound to.

Who is more up to date in pop culture?

Adira. Even without trying to she finds herself kept abreast of most of the latest developments in high society, knowledge she makes sure to share with Blandon, who is remarkably apathetic to it all.

Who insists on going to see the newest movies?

Blandon. He has an obsession with Muggle society and culture in general and this stretches to their movies. As long as the plot looks mildly interesting you can be sure he’ll be finding out when Adira’s next free night is.

Who cries when the abused animal commercials come on?

Neither. Despite everything, growing up how they did meant that both of them are more reticent when it comes to showing emotions, so crying is a rarity for them both. Both of them are made a lot more sad by adverts, however.

Who’s the lighter sleeper?

Both. With everything they’ve seen and done, neither sleeps too deeply or restfully. This does mean that on their worse nights, it’s not too much effort to wake the other and wait out the sunrise in their arms.

Who believes in ghosts?

Both. They’ve probably both seen hundreds of different ghosts each, not believing in them would be ridiculous.

Who does the grocery shopping?

Both. They find something oddly settling and calming about grocery shopping that means they enjoy going together. It’s just one of those weirdly comfortable things for them.

Who updates their facebook status more often?

Send me a pairing and I’ll tell you who:

Falls asleep on the couch:

Adira. What with being a future wine mum, Adira often ends up either sleeping & snoring heavily or just passes out on the couch with a glass of wine in her hand. Rion just takes it and puts it on a table next to her if she wakes up and wants some more

Makes friends with the neighbours:

Adira, again. She just seems like the kind of person who would go out and chat with the neighbours over the garden fence, down the street, really anywhere she can. If they’re ever going out anywhere Rion makes sure to leave at least half an hour before they need to just to factor in the time spent talking.

Is the adventurous eater:

Both. With Adira’s extensive knowledge of wines, she tries to pick the best food possible to go with each, so they tend to have a selection of foods from around the world to match their wines.

Hogs the covers at night:

Adira, but only a little bit. That more has to do with the fact that she’s often so drunk that she just sprawls on the covers when she gets to bed rather than actually get in. Rion tends to only take as many covers as he needs.

Forgets to do the dishes:

Adira. She just drinks too much wine to be able to actually get the dishes at any semblance of clean. Rion tends to light-heartedly nag her about it but nothing ever comes of it.

Tries to surprise their partner more often:

Rion. He takes time to make fair-sized surprises from time-to-time, often involving wine-free zones. Adira’s not a fan of those zones but she puts up with them.

Leaves dirty laundry on the floor:

Both. Rion tends to be too busy with other things or just not care at all about the laundry. He just puts it in it’s designated spaces. Drunk!Adira is messy!Adira. Adira seems to be drunk too often.

Stays up til 2 AM reading:

Rion. He just stays up as long as he likes, sometimes using it as a means of making sure that Adira hasn’t caused a major injury to herself whilst drinking.

Plans date night:
