QUOTES & QUESTIONS MEME

idk I felt like it. Five quotes that describe, etc, You know the drill.

This is also now a QUESTIONS MEME because I also felt like that. I play Sword/Riful here, on Onyx, and that is it. I will also answer questions about Asuka/Ginger if you really have something burning to ask about. :U

I am curious as to whether Ven left any particular impression on Riful?

[amivoringyou]

WELL HE HAS NOW hahahahaha uh.

I am going to be a terrible person and be blunt about Riful's feelings on Ven: she thinks he's most likely the one getting hot dickings from Josh and not the other way around, and would be hilariously tickled to find out this is not always true if it isn't. He's too compassionate for her to consider him uh, capable, because he's too likely to consider others' feelings first and that means he's more likely to be swept up by others.

Hilariously she also doesn't care that they're banging (she just wanted to confirm her suspicions, p much ... it wasn't important enough to wait and find out from observation) because she's familiar with close inter-team bonds due to lol Claymore character lol. JUST BECAUSE CLAYMORES ... DON'T, USUALLY, SEEM TO CARE ... DOESN'T MEAN THEY'RE NOT THINKING ABOUT IT/NOT DOING IT. Also Riful's v much of the free love school of fucking, so that's another thing.

She's also ":?" about Ven being a magic thing she has no senses forrrrr but that's really not an overriding thing, she may just ask him outright to show her because it's not important enough to actually try and observe.

REVERSE?

HAHAHA, no, you're quite right that Ven, on a good day, can top...a pillow. I mean, they haven't actually gotten to the hot dickings in that sense, but I suspect that is what will happen; although if Josh is curious too, Ven would be v. willing to return the favor. It's less a compassion thing, I would say, they're both really partner-focused, and more that Ven just...is pliable and makes really fun noises when Josh pins him.

Blah blah excuse me while I ramble about sex. Anywho! Ven honestly, after all that weirdness, has a pretty positive impression of Riful. She pinged him as okay, yeah, probably a horrible person, but also friendly and interesting to talk to. So kind of like Beatrice, except obviously not as close because not a teammate. (And he didn't get introduced to her awful side first, which happened with Beato because of hilarious timing.) And at this point, he's pretty chill around horrible people; it's really more a question of whether he considers somebody an active threat in Aather. And since he doesn't know about LOL EATING PEOPLE and her other adventures, and has a lot of instinctive KNIGHTS ARE ALWAYS COOL, he doesn't. (He's new, he never knew knights like Seishirou or other-Lucifer. The idea of an active threat or even a creeper being a knight just does not compute for him.) Also she triggered his sympathy buttons by getting herself injured and so on.

So honestly, yeah, a quietly positive impression with a side note of yeah, she's probably a horrible person in some ways, but so are half the people I sleep around every night, whatevs. Finding out she's hurt people in Aather, more than anything else, is what might whip that around, because at this point Peridot has adjusted him to "if somebody's an active threat in Aather, I will keep that in mind, but otherwise, really, it's none of my damn business."

Tell me about Riful and the free love school of fucking! (I typed ducking at first, clearly I need more coffee.)
