[sabigawa]

when you forcibly bullheadedly offer to help your crush friend teammate give his freaky dog a bath, but you piss off said freaky dog because you're an asshole so he pisses on you.

This is my gift to my friend @deabruarenjarraitzaileaya-ha for the Eyeshield 2023 Winter Gift Exchange! Sorry for the delay 😓 I ended up doing something silly involving these three, since one of your prompts included Agon and Cerberus lol. I hope you like it!

And thanks so much to @eyeshields for organizing the event! You truly are keeping this fandom alive

[beansterpie]

For the ship ask game: 1, 4, 34 and 39 for agohiru ❤️❤️

HEHEEH TY more excuses to talk about these gd idiots <3

1.) Describe their first date.

Ooohhh weirdly enough, this isn't something I've actually thought about before. And it sort of depends on what we're calling a date here-- if we're being tongue-in-cheek and calling any outing where the two of them do something they enjoy a date, then you could argue their time in middle school beating people up and gathering blackmail was a sort of date lol. BUT I'm going to go with like, a proper date that was planned as such, presumably after they get together.

Hmm. Agon would plan it, considering he's the one with (oodles of) experience when it comes to planning and going on dates. I could see him low key doing it as a way to stake claim on Hiruma lol, like as marker of a legitimate relationship. Trouble is ofc that Agon's never cared about any of the people he's dated before (if he even considered what he did before actual 'dating'. From what we know, it kind of seemed like he did it to stroke his ego and get laid and leech off of them financially), so his past experience might not be all that helpful lol.

And if it's a first date, it probably happens while they're keeping their relationship on the down low, during uni. I don't think Hiruma would care that much one way or another if people find out they're dating, but Agon definitely would care (✨homophobic bi boy✨), so he wouldn't want to be seen doing anything stereotypically date-like anywhere they might run into people they know.

Lol maybe they go out to eat and catch a movie in a different city, then end the night doing something ~romantic~ like walking through a light show or something. Hiruma is very obviously bored the whole time and doesn't try to hide it, and Agon gets pissed at him for being an asshole but he's secretly also really bored, and in the end they coincidentally run into a rival football team, or maybe a gang, and mutually have much more fun terrorizing them. That sounds about right tbh.

-------------

This got really long, so the rest under the cut!

4.) Who initiates affection? Why does the other not initiate affection as much?

Definitely Agon lol. Not that he's some sweet, affectionate guy or anything, but simply because everything is relative and Agon would be the clingier one.

But really, neither of them would be all that affectionate. At the very least, not at first lol. As they get more physically comfortable with each other throughout their relationship though, I could see Agon initiating more casual physical contact (like throwing his arm over Hiruma's shoulder) as well as like, 'casually' cuddling up to him in more intimate moments lol. And Hiruma returns the affection by allowing it, which is saying a lot for Hiruma who seems to avoid affectionate physical touch like a prickly cat.

And beyond the physical, they'd show affection for one another through bantering and spending time together. I can imagine Agon arguing with Hiruma over some stupid bullshit because that's what they do, but as soon as someone else tries to butt in, they're a united front. (Or at least Agon attempts to be a united front, whether Hiruma goes along with it is entirely dependant on his whim lol) Including each other in stuff, doing schemes™ together, that sort of thing, I think would mean a lot to both of them.

34.) Do they have any inside jokes?

Probably! I imagine they would have had quite a few from when they hung out in middle school, but that all would have been soured during the intervening years after their Break Up™. So if one of them brought up an old inside joke between them post-canon, once they'd buried the hatchet and were tentatively hanging out again (ESPECIALLY if the inside joke came from Hiruma, I think), it would be kind of a big deal lol.

As to the flavor of their inside jokes, a lot of it would probably be referencing people they've terrorized in the past, lets be real.

39.) When and how did they admit that they loved each other? If they haven’t yet, why?

Hmmm admitting to each other or admitting to themselves?

I think it'd be sort of a gradual thing for both of them, though in different ways. Agon, for instance, would deny it both inwardly and outwardly at first, insisting that they're just hooking up, but once he gets comfortable with the arrangement and the closer proximity, I think he'd forget to deny it to himself so much lol. And then eventually there'd be a moment where Agon's feelings are just so blatant that even trying to deny it would seem pointless and more importantly, a pain in the ass, so he doesn't. He'd absorb it into how he sees himself and fuck anyone who has a problem with it.

With Hiruma... he's the kind of guy who will quite abruptly make a decision and then stick with it through thick and thin. Not to say he'd 'decide' that he was in love with Agon all of a sudden, but the way I imagine their relationship going is they tentatively reconcile after the world cup, and then start hanging out more, and then start hooking up in uni. Hiruma wouldn't have actually seen it coming when Agon first comes onto him, but then he chooses to go along with it probably because it was unexpected, and he finds that interesting.

Eventually though, I think it'd really sink in that Agon is actually invested in this relationship, in him, and he's not just fucking around on a whim that he can ditch once he gets bored, and that would shift Hiruma's perspective on things. I think he'd be more willing to relax into their relationship at that point, and then ~love~ would gradually but comfortably sneak up on him lol.

That being said, I don't think there'd be any dramatic declarations of love from either of them. tbh I feel like they'd date and continue sharing their lives in what more or less seems like a committed relationship to everyone else (and of course there'd be plenty of ups and downs during this time because they're both allergic to expressing their feelings), but they've never said 'I love you' rip. Then years down the line during a totally mundane moment, one of them (probably Agon) would casually say it, and Hiruma would laugh and say something like, "you only just realized that now? keep up dreads". And that would be that!

Tyyyyy for sending an agohiru ask! Sorry this was SO late lol

[aquasandyled]

hello hello so as I was perusing for the CRUMBS of agohiru content that exists on this site, I saw that you made a post mentioning that you shipped them and…. well basically I figured I’d ask if you wanted to expand on that 👀 give you an excuse to talk about them perhaps? also because there’s maybe five agohiru fans on this site and I’m desperate for more—

ahem, anyway, only if you want to! have a good one ✨

Omg???? Is this 2014??? The fanfics used to be fire… i have my dumb little (boyfriends) tag that would be cute if tumblr had a functional search system

You tell me too 🥲 i miss them, talk to me about these dumbasses pls

I just think theyre exes, divorced, cant ever be proper friends again (or can they?) they have chemistry, sinergy, they fight, they make out

Sometimes they get nostalgic for what they had, cause they had fun and worked great together, similar goals, but agons too selfish and a dick, a working relationship would require a LOT of emotional maturity and responsibility from him and who has time for that? Hiruma has shit to do, not enough patience and definitely not time, so whatever.

In high school they were in a feud so we saw that, feelings of betrayal, but they also make each other want to be better (in a not very nice way, but still) and they already know they work very well together, a hit to agons ego (he needs that)

So when theyre in the uni with the wizards theyre still very much “we arent friends idiotttt” mode to anyone who even gives them the side eye (hiruma doesnt actually *say* anything, feelings who? watch out for the bullets) but agon waits for hiruma after class like a puppy when he can (hes just passing by really, theyre both going to the gym or the field anyway?) and hiruma subconsciously looks for him sometimes even…

They always fight though, always disagree, theres always a better way to do things according to agon and both of them are emotionally stunted and unwilling so really, what can ya do? They do sleep together often, so that messes everything up even more, but they already know each other well, its hard to stop (do they even want to?)

Basically, heard bang the doldrums by fob? Thats them

[wysteriadragon777]

Title: Death to All Rating: M, Humor/Romance Summary: Sort of Agohiru. Just another day in their life. Y’know another day where Unsui claims he’s going to go insane.

~

The apartment showed all the signs of being occupied by three lazy teenage boys.

Dishes mounted precariously in the sink. Clothes thrown over all the furniture. Mixed smells of sweat, burned food, and too much cologne. And a dent in the wall where Agon finally got fed up and put Hiruma’s head through it.

They had what could so loosely be described as a routine. Hiruma screamed about cthulus, Agon acted like a vain little girl, and Unsui pretended to be the sane one. Indefinitely, until death do us part, but preferably before.

Today, however, there was something new added to the décor. Instead of the usual, oppressively frightening ‘cult’ movie playing on the teevee (Donne Darko, Clockwork Orange, Rocky Horror Picture show, etc.), Agon was slumped on the couch watching MTV with the sound turned off.

Actually, he wasn’t watching the teevee at all. His head was resting on the back of the couch, an icepack pressed against the left side of his face. His trademark sunglasses were temporarily stashed in his thick brown dreadlocks.

“I tried watching it with the sound on, but I hate all the music,” He said when his one free eye landed on his brother, gesturing vaguely to the teevee. A blonde black woman wriggled her voluptuous bottom at the screen.

“Nothing like Bob Marley, huh?”

“Hey! Bob Marley was more than just another get-rich-quick superstar, okay? He had vision. Not like any of these-” More vague gesturing- “-Wannabe five-second ‘pop’ stars. Whatever. Nobody respects reggae anymore,”

“Huh,” Unsui said, less then interested about his brother’s fetish for slow-beat Jamaican music. He tried to peel the icepack away from his face and saw enough of the angry red bruise to get a quick summary of what happened. “So how hard did he deck you?”

Agon made a face and flicked a handful of dreadlocks over his shoulder. He and Hiruma had a weird relationship to which there was no description. They screamed, they yelled, they tried to tear each other’s faces off. It was pretty amazing to watch- weapons flew overhead, blood splattered onto the walls and every weapon at their disposal exploded in a fiery display of testosterone-fueled frustration. Most of the time, Unsui let them go at it and then quietly cleaned up the disaster when they’d fainted from bloodloss, but when the fights got particularly gory (the time when Hiruma succeeded in ripping of Agon’s nose being the most memorable and recent), he figured it was best if he intervened. Still, when the screaming stopped, whoever was in the best condition staggered to his feet and patched the other one back up.

“Not too hard. It wasn’t so much to break anything as to distract me- he’s gone, if you didn’t notice,” Agon said. He picked up the remote and turned the sound back on. A high-pitched, out-off-tune whine oozed from the screen, followed by repetitive hiphop beat. He shuddered. In a quick flurry of buttons and remotes, the teevee turned off and the CD player turned on. Immediately, one of Hiruma’s Gorgoroth CDs came on. Agon groaned and sunk deeper into the couch.

“It wasn’t your fault,” Unsui said instinctively, although he had no idea whether his statement was true or not.

“I know that,” Agon snarled, gnashing his teeth and pressing the icepack against his face. “Motherfucker freaked out and trying to get out of the apartment anyway he could. He even tried jumping out the fuckin’ window,”

“Huh,” Unsui said, trying to remain unattached to the human drama. What he remembered from past dramas was that Agon liked to exaggerate. It was easier to just stay in the dark and accept that what was directly in front of him was all that he would ever know about what had happened.

“I tried calling him, but he isn’t answering his phone.”

Pause.

“What was he upset about?” Unsui asked, fully aware that Hiruma didn’t always need a reason to blow his top. Agon snorted.

“‘Upset’? God, you have no idea. He was ready to explode. Fucker was waving every gun he had around. When that didn’t work, he tried clawing out my neck. Look at this- look at it!”

Agon peeled his shirt back to show deep, angry red gashes on his neck. It did indeed look like Hiruma had tried to peel out his vocal cords.

“But why?”

“When I get my hands on him, he is so dead. But what to do with him? I could always try cutting off his thumbs...”

“You pull that stunt again, I’ll do the same thing I did last time you tried it. Why was he so pissed off?”

“I don’t know what’s wrong with him, it’s like no matter what, he just-”

“AGON!”

Agon jumped in his seat.

“He found out about Reiko,” He whimpered pitifully.

“Reiko who?” Unsui snapped, in no mood for his brother’s innocent act.

“Reiko Yamamura. She’s this girl I’ve been seeing for a couple of weeks and-”

“Oh my gawd,” Unsui groaned. He threw his bag as hard as possible on the floor. “That’s it- I don’t care anymore. You two can kill each, for all I care. Just don’t get any blood in my room,”

“What? What?” Agon barked, jumping to his feet. Gorgoroth CD and icepack suddenly forgotten. “Don’t tell me you’re seeing his side of the argument!”

“I, personally, think it’s rude to cheat on someone, particularly with a member of the opposite sex,”

“Oh come on. It’s nothing serious, we just go see a movie once in a while and- Holy shit, this is the same conversation I had with Hiruma.”

“It isn’t making too different an impact on me, either,” Unsui snarled.

“It isn’t a big deal!”

“You keep saying that- that big bruise on the left side of your face is saying otherwise,”

“Gimme a break- it’s just so people don’t start rumors behind my back. I don’t want to deal with stupid questions and stupider people. Reiko’s more like protective camouflage than anything,”

“The fuck are you talking about, ‘protective camouflage’? You hold his hand in public!”

“So?”

“So if you don’t want people to start rumors, maybe you should dump the bitch and cut back on the gay PDA,”

“But I like holding his hand,” Agon whined. Unsui rolled his eyes.

“Make up your fucking mind! Do you want people to think you’re gay or not?”

“No,” Agon said, a little too quickly.

“And yet you are,”

“No I’m not. I like girls,”

“And guys,”

“And guys, yes,”

“That makes you gay,”

“That makes me bi,” Agon said defensively.

“Y’know, I hope Hiruma kills you,” Unsui snarled. “You’re slime. You don’t deserve to live,”

“Fuck you! You’d say that about your own brother?”

“If he turns out the way you did, then yes!”

“We have the same DNA!” Agon proclaimed dramatically. Classic tactic.

“But not the same ego,” Unsui shot back.

“Unsuiiii-ii-iii,” Agon whined, the huge bruise on the left side of his face disfiguring his ‘pleading’ look.

“What?” He snarled.

And then, like a sign from God signaling Unui’s temporary dislodgment from the argument, the phone rang.

Once.

Twice.

“I’ll get it,” Agon mumbled, staggering over to the phone. “Hello...?”

Unsui took the break in the conversation to toss his bag onto his bed and inhale a handful of aspirin from the industrial-size bottle Musashi had so kindly stolen from the pharmacy across the street when he saw the state of the apartment. Most of it was already gone.

When he walked back in the the living room, Agon was arguing with whoever was on the other end of the line.

“What? ...but baby- No, I’m- But I thought- Look- Look- Let me finish my goddamn sentence!”

The high-pitched howling coming from the other end of the tiny speaker didn’t let him finish his sentence. It didn’t even let him start one. Unsui watched Agon’s face twist into a whole spectrum of emotions as the screaming went from fury to desperation to dejected sobbing, without him having to say a word.

And then the phone abruptly cut off and Agon was left staring at the receiver like it had the plague.

“God-”

Agon lifted the receiver over his head, his knuckles turning white from the tension. Unsui quietly shuffled out of tantrum range.

“DAMMIT!” He howled, throwing the phone full-force at a wall. It shattered like glass, raining phone organs onto what Unsui immediately recognized as the ominous Pile of Unpaid Bills.

Unsui counted to a high number, took a few deep breathes, went back into the bathroom, swallowed some more aspirin, and tried to summon up enough rage to match Hiruma in a screaming match.

When he walked back into the living room, Agon was throwing himself against the wall and screaming obscenities. He kicked the Pile of Unpaid Bills and stamped his feet like a little kid who’d just dropped his lollipop.

His sunglasses fell out of his hair and to their doom under his pounding feet. Cheap plastic sliced into his foot and he howled, throwing himself theatrically back against the couch. Unsui waited for the bawling to die down.

“SHUT UP!” He roared.

Agon’s mouth clamped shut instantly. Unsui massaged his forehead. When he looked back up, Agon was picking plastic out of his foot.

“That’s gross- knock that off. I’ll get some antiseptic,” Unsui grumbled. He slammed the industrial-sized aspirin bottle on the nearest flat surface and stormed back in to the bathroom. The antiseptic was waiting for him, perched in the medicine cabinet expectantly. He swore the little can looked smug.

“You shut up, too,” He growled at it, snatching it up and storming back into the living room. Agon was picking at his foot with a pair of tweezers.

“Didn’t I tell you to knock that off?” Unsui snarled, snatching up the tweezers out of his hand. “You’re gonna get it all infected and shit,” He sprayed some antiseptic on the cut, then handed Agon the tweezers.

“There- knock yourself out,”

“What, that’s it?” Agon whined.

“Yes that’s it! I’m not digging around in your nasty foot just to peel the plastic from your sunglasses out of it,”

“Damn, I coulda done that myself,” Agon grumbled, bending back over his foot.

“But you didn’t,” Unsui snapped. He slammed the antiseptic onto the table and snatched the aspirin up in the same movement.

“So what happened?”

“Now Reiko found out about Hiruma! Jeezus. I can’t believe this,”

“How?”

“How do you think? Next time I see him, I’m gonna kill him. Oh, and you won’t believe this- she was going on and on about how much she liked me and how many of her friends she was going to tell and shit like that. Like I fucking care!”

“Wasn’t the whole reason you were going out with her in the first place because you cared about people starting rumours?”

“Traitor! Judas! You’re next, y’know that? After them, I’m coming after you! You’re all gonna die!” Agon roared, waving the tweezers like a baton. “Right after I’m done picking plastic shit out of my foot,”

“Shut up,” Unsui advised. He slumped on the couch next to his brother and waited for him to finish picking plastic out of his foot.

He let his head fall back and stared quietly at the ceiling, doing his best to ignore Agon’s muttering. He didn’t need this. Not every day, at least. Maybe every once in a while he could pack up a change of clothes, some money and his toothbrush and go crash at a friend’s house. No need to sit here every night and wait for the roof to finally give up and cave in.

And the whole thing was Agon’s fault. Completely and totally. Unsui would never have offered that Hiruma sleep on the couch, no matter how cold the weather outside was getting. In fact, he probably would have let the fucker freeze. But Agon was insistent about the fact that Hiruma be given a place to sleep.

The original arrangement was that after school, Hiruma would unrolled the sofabed and then protected his personal space with homicidal ferocity. Then Agon convinced Unsui to sleep on the couch and Hiruma’s highly-protected personal space started to shrink rapidly.

Agon poked him in the ribs.

“You hear that?” Agon hissed.

Unsui sat up a little straighter.

“Hear what?” He asked. That was a stupid question. He knew exactly what he was supposed to be listening for, because he could hear the footsteps storming up the stairs just as well as Agon could.

“It’s him. I know it’s him,” Agon snarled, setting down the tweezers with every intention of walking over to the door and smacking whatever was walking past clean through a wall, regardless of foot injury or the possibility that it wasn’t Hiruma.

“Sit down!” Unsui barked. “You were in too much pain to so much as pick up the tweezers five minutes ago, remember? Stay that way!”

Agon snatched the tweezers back up and gave Unsui a look of pure loathing. Unsui ignored him, turning his attention back to the sounds of footsteps in the hall way. Please keep walking, he prayed silently.

The feet stopped at their door. Unsui squeezed his eyes shut and gave God one last chance to prove to a life-long atheist that he really did exist. Maybe it was one of their parents.

Agon rose slowly to his feet, hissing softly.

“Sit. Down.” Unsui said dangerously. Agon glared at him, then sunk back into this seat. Someone was rattling with the doorknob. Mr. and Mrs. Kongou had keys to the apartment, but Agon had never bothered getting Hiruma a key. Either Agon dragged Hiruma back into the house, or he picked the lock open. And somebody was picking the lock open.

Unsui dove for his room. The door slammed open.

“Bastard!” Agon roared, tossing the tweezers full-force at the entrance. Unsui hit the floor and rolled into the doorframe of his room.

[egrettacaerulea]

No one understood how someone like Hiruma Youichi and Kongo Agon could date each other instead of killing one another. And they had been dating for over 2 years also. That wasn't a short time for dating someone out of spite.

Musashi certainly didn't really understand despite the fact that he was Hiruma's best friend. The two fought a lot after all, even though it was never physical, but verbal-fight was a common occurrence between the two. Instead of having pet names like normal couples, Hiruma called Agon "fucking dreadlocks" or any other swearing words and the way Agon refers to Hiruma also wasn't sweet at all. So, yeah, Musashi had been friends with Hiruma for years and he didn't understand his relationship at all, until one day he saw the two of them in Deimon's club room.

It was just them in the room, Musashi didn't make a sound so they didn't notice him -- yet -- but he accidentally saw Agon kissing Hiruma's temple gently while saying something that Musashi couldn't quite catch -- but the tone was soft instead of the regular harsh ones. And it made Hiruma laugh, and Agon smiled back, and Musashi quickly walked away before he ruined that private moment.

Now, he understood. Everyone else might think that Agon and Hiruma were such an odd couple, but their relationship was just for them, and they definitely didn't care what everyone else thought about them.

[beansterpie]

agon/hiruma 8, 9, 17, 33

aaaaand charlotte/casca 8, 9, 26, 43

Hahaha! Thank you for the ask! <3

Agon/Hiruma (ty for letting me ramble about my obscure ship <3)

8.) What do they love most about the other? Why?

The way I see it is that they were initially drawn to one another because they're both assholes who operate outside of the conventional lol. Agon is a genius who believes in his superiority to like, everyone else, and therefore believes that rules don't apply to him. Hiruma is smart enough to know rules are made up and audacious enough to take advantage of that lol. And whenever they meet in middle school (because the exact point of their first meeting is never shown), I imagine both of them probably didn't have any peers or friends they could relate to, so ended up latching onto each other even if they obfuscated that behind other bullshit.

And the other things they like about each other grow from that. Agon (grudgingly) likes how smart and creative Hiruma is, he likes his audacity in the face of social convention/any and every life obstacle, and he finds his antics amusing. Even if he'd never admit it, or possibly even realize it, I think he also likes that Hiruma doesn't take his shit and can actually keep him on his toes. He also just plain likes how in sync they are, how they seem to keep falling into the same wavelength lol. Hiruma just makes his life more interesting.

And on Hiruma's end, he likes what a flashy asshole Agon is lol. He likes gaudy things, and what's gaudier than Agon? Agon doesn't give a crap about what's proper or trying to spare people's feelings-- if he wants something, he'll just take it, and I can see how that would attract Hiruma, at least initially. And even with all the history between them, Hiruma likes that Agon is... not nice lol. Because Hiruma isn't nice (he can be quite kind, but he's not nice), and I think he likes that Agon is cut from the same cloth. And of course, he also likes that Agon is good at football lmfao, it has to be said.

9.) What do they dislike most about the other? Why?

hohohoho, so Agon hates that Hiruma prioritizes football over him lmfao get rekt. By the time they get together (which happens in uni in my head) Agon has matured a bit and is slightly more chill about this, but I think he'd still hate that Hiruma has other friends that he might prioritize over him. And he sometimes hates that Hiruma is a good guy at his core, because he always thought Hiruma was rotten like himself, and that puts them at odds.

As for Hiruma, he hates how plain cruel and petty Agon is. Things would get better after the Youth World Cup arc, especially once they actually make up, but the shit Agon pulled in middle school, the way he hurt Kurita and also threw Hiruma aside? That left pretty deep scars and it would take Hiruma a long time to fully trust Agon, even once they get together. He'd also hate his lack of drive rip. Agon has everything, he's a prodigy and a genius and he wastes his talents by looking down on everyone around him and assuming his natural talents will come out on top no matter what, and Hiruma hates that mindset with every fibre of his being.

17.) How well do they communicate? Are they open with their feelings/thoughts or more reserved? Why?

Not Well™ lmfao. Agon has all the emotional intelligence of a broken crayon and Hiruma has trust issues when it comes to showing his vulnerability, especially to Agon, sooooo getting them to admit anything to each other would be like pulling teeth. Generally they'd express their feelings through actions, but they'd really fumble through it, lots of ups and downs. Plus they're both assholes so that doesn't help.

The crux of it is that Agon is insecure deep down about Hiruma losing interest in him, like growing out of a phase, but he also has a lot of pride and would never admit that. And Hiruma, subconsciously or not, believes that the reason Agon betrayed™ him in middle school is because he never really valued Hiruma as a person, and fucked with him and his friends for shits and giggles because he could (rather than it being out of jealousy). He isn't insecure in Agon's perception of him (I think he was hurt by it, but it didn't impact the way Hiruma views himself-- it just reflected on Agon and what a dick he is) but he's very congizant that Agon is fickle and it could happen again. So that ends up with them always being on the back foot with each other emotionally for a while, until something gives.

Though once that thing does give...

33.) How do they flirt? Who’s the worse flirt?

Lol I feel like their flirting would be almost indistinguishable to their insulting each other. Like, they'd talk shit to each other but there'd be an underlying tone of flirtation that might go over (most) everyone else's heads. Plus, at least at first, Agon would def be that homophobic gay guy trope (or homophobic bi guy in this case) so he'd avoid doing anything obvious in public, like flirting. But once they both feel more secure in their relationship, I could see Agon pretty quickly no longer giving a fuck about what other people think, and then he'd be the most obnoxious flirt. Hiruma's flirting would stay implicit with his taunts and sly comments lol.

---------

Charlotte/Casca

8.) What do they love most about the other? Why?

While Casca initially kind of resented Charlotte's sweetness because she saw it as a result of her naivete and sheltered life, once they get to know each other better I think Casca would come to really value it. She's sweet and tries to be kind, and she IS naive but she has steel in her when it matters. I also think Casca would find her cheeriness and optimism refreshing after like, you know, her life and the world they live in lmfao.

There's a lot of things Charlotte loves about Casca, but above all Charlotte would value Casca's honesty. Casca doesn't lie to her or coddle her the way many other people in her life have, and that's the thing that would eventually have her trusting Casca over everyone else. She also just thinks Casca is cool af, she's cool under pressure, she can fight, she's very handsome. But then she also gets flustered pretty easily if you compliment her too much or try to be emotional with her, and Charlotte finds that endearing.

9.) What do they dislike most about the other? Why?

Casca dislikes Charlotte's... presumptuousness, because she's like, as privledged as you can be in the world of Berserk lol. I think it would get a bit better throughout their relationship, but Casca gets really frustrated with a lot of Charlotte's casual opinions on the world because she fundamentally doesn't understand the hardships that most people have to live through.

And Charlotte dislikes it when Casca shuts her out lol. Casca has a tendency to get resentfully silent whenever she's feeling defensive around the princess, and it drives Charlotte nuts. In part because this happens most often when Charlotte makes a good point about something that is in Casca's field so to speak, and Casca doesn't want to admit that Charlotte might have a point, which of course makes Charlotte feel like Casca is patronizing her.

26.) What sacrifices do they make for the other?

Hmmmm I guess this depends on what point in their relationship we're talking about lol. In a general easy sense, they'd have to come to a lot of small compromises in terms of being patient with each other or altering their world view in small ways (or big ways, more so with Charlotte lol). Once they get together, I guess having to hide their relationship would be a sacrifice, especially to someone like Charlotte who has such starry ideas of romance, I think not being able to show off the person she loves would be difficult. And on Casca's end, I think it would be a pretty big deal whether she realizes or not that she's now like... prioritizing someone else over Griffith lol (she'd honestly probably be in denial about that fact for a while though)

43.) If they picked out outfits for each other, what would they look like?

Casca would probably try picking out something more practical for Charlotte lol, but I also think something would hold her back from like, putting Charlotte in trousers. She still grew up in the Berserk world and has some backwards ideas about womanhood lol, so I think she'd still see Charlotte as a 'proper lady' (as opposed to herself, who is not) and trousers don't come into that. I can imagine Casca picking out something that reminds her of the kinds of clothes the women would wear in her home village, though of much nicer quality.

And Charlotte... I think Charlotte kind of loves the more masculine clothing that Casca wears, and she finds her very fetching in them, but I also think her curiosity would get the better of her and she'd try to dress Casca up in pretty dresses lmfao. Which would make Casca uncomfortable and shy, though maybe a bit flattered too lol. But once Charlotte had her fun, she'd still prefer Casca's usual clothes, though maybe she'd pick out something with a little extra flair and ornamentation than what Casca usually goes for.

Thanks again for the ask! Sorry this took me a minute, I had to sit and think about some of them lol.
