Question for Achilles what do your parents think about Pat?

Achilles: My father adores him! I was never worried about that though, what’s not to love? My father likes it when I bring Patroclus around because he has someone to laugh at all his dad jokes and tell all his stories to. He’s always asking how Patroclus is doing, how’s his work— I think it’s very sweet.

Achilles: But I haven’t talked to my mother in years so she’s never met him and maybe that’s for the better. She wasn’t too happy about the last relationship I was in the last time I saw her.

My question may be a bit absurd,Achilles what is the trait you hate most in Patroclus, Patroclus, what is the trait you hate most in Achilles, you are both perfect, but I'm still curious.😽👀

Achilles: I guess I’d say one trait I like the least is Patroclus’ tendency to not ask for help when he needs it. Sometimes it’s with little things like fixing something around the apartment. Or it can be bigger things too like when he’s having an anxiety attack and tries to stay away from me to handle it on his own even though he’s clearly struggling. It’s hard seeing him like that sometimes but I think over the years I’ve gotten better at butting in to help without him needing to ask me for it!

Patroclus: I guess one thing I could do without is his stubbornness... When Achilles makes up his mind on something, it’s really hard to talk him out of it, even if whatever he's made up his mind on isn’t very practical or ends up hurting him in the end. I love him more than anything but I think his stubbornness might be the death of me one of these days.

Do you both like to go to bed at the same time together or is one of you a night owl?

Achilles: I can definitely be a night owl at times but most nights we fall asleep together! Patroclus is more of a morning person though, I’ll never understand it.

Hey Pat! What’s it like dating a celebrity?

Patroclus: Well, it’s definitely different from my past relationships. I mean, I could do without articles written about us just walking down the street or the not so secret paparazzi scoping us out when we’re grocery shopping, you know, things like that. It sometimes gets a bit annoying but I do my best to ignore the attention.

Patroclus: As for my awe-inspiring celebrity boyfriend it isn’t always glamorous— I once watched him accidentally waterboard himself on a dare trying to drink something while laying down. It kind of cracks me up when people make him out to be this guy that’s “too cool” when he does things like this behind closed doors.

Who's the more dramatic one?

Patroclus: Take a wild guess.

Hey Achilles! What's something you can do that gets patroclus blushing?

Achilles: Sometimes a few words are all I need to get him flustered, haha.

Patroclus: He is a menace who likes to say the wildest things in a room full of people.

Do either of you like to cook? What are your favorite foods or favorite things to cook for each other ?

Achilles: I used to cook with my mother a lot growing up, before we moved here to the States. I know how to make a lot of traditional dishes— kreatopita is my favorite thing to make since it reminds me of our villa back home in Greece. I come from a big family so I was always taught to make more than enough for everyone to eat.

Achilles: When I’m not busy or touring, I’m usually in charge of dinner since Patroclus works long shifts at the hospital. Patroclus is an amazing cook— and baker!— but his specialty is definitely breakfast. Omelettes, French toast, eggs in any kind of way…

Achilles: His pancakes from scratch are to die for, we’ve been together for years and he still won’t tell me the recipe.

Have you guys ever had a pregnancy scare??

Achilles: Nope, we’re very careful about that sort of thing.

Patroclus: Well— Most of the time.

Achilles! What’s your favorite thing about Pat? :)

Achilles: I think the real question is what isn’t my favorite thing about him?

Achilles: Hm… If I had to pick just one thing I think it’d be his kindness, he really has such a big heart. Patroclus has been through a lot over the years and it kind of amazes me that he didn’t let any of it make him… cold, you know? A lot of times he goes out of his way to help people, he’s the kind of person who’d give you the shirt off his back, just always ready to be there for someone and always wanting to do the right thing. I really admire— no, I love him for it.

Hey pat! What's one thing you can do that gets Achilles blushing a lot?

Patroclus: He practically melts whenever I call him pretty

[ask-modern-patrochilles]

someone teach achilles how to hem things

Patroclus: I don't think he has the patience for all of that.

Achilles: Hey, it's more convenient to just cut everything up and go. Plus it looks cooler.

[ask-modern-patrochilles]

Does Achilles treat bottoms the same as tops? Do all jeans, sweatpants, etc. all become booty shorts?

Achilles: A few pairs of old sweats get sacrificed during the summer months, but that’s only to wear around the apartment, or quick supermarket runs.

Hopefully their kids don't get Achilles sense of style LOL or a lot of jumpers/hoodies and shirts shall be destroyed

Patroclus: I’m already mentally preparing myself for teenage rebellion and lots of cut up clothing.

Patroclus' crop top pic. It looks like the crop top has a raw hem. Is Achilles cutting regular tops to turn them into crop tops?????

Patroclus: Let’s just say I don’t trust him around my shirts.

[ask-modern-patrochilles]

You guys should swirch outfitz i wanna see pat in a crop top 😈

Achilles: Don’t worry I’ll be sneaking a few of my things into his closet, hopefully my sense of style will rub off on him.

Do you guys ever fight? If you do, about what? And how do you make up and reconcile?

Patroclus: We don't necessarily fight, but there can be a lot of tension whenever we don't get to spend a lot of time together, especially before Achilles goes on tour.

Patroclus: Whenever we do have a disagreement now, we try to listen to each other and talk things through or find a solution that works for both of us. When we first got together though, if we had even the smallest disagreement, instead of talking about it, Achilles would always buy me some expensive gift to try and win me over. He thought— and still thinks— that money solves any problem.

Achilles: Hey, gift-giving is my love language.

Patroclus: Is that what we're calling it?

Achilles, what was your first impression of Pat?

Achilles: It was basically love at first sight!
