#i also think he definitely has his own special junk snacks he likes and indulges in regularly as more than just a now and then treat.

[thedevotionaltour]

personally i like to envision a time where matt tries to be a dick and rags on foggy for his snacks and foggy just shoots back asking matt what's with the large coke sitting on his desk then. that's the second large coke i've seen grace your desk this week. and it's not even a bottle you got at the store that's a cup. that's a large cup. should i mention the can in the garbage too. and matt shuts up from there for the afternoon.

✩ Beastie/Chris

Send ‘✩’ for the following:

Disagreements:

Who is more likely to raise their voice?

- Chris probably. Ian is more subtle when he starts to become angry with Chris. 

Who threatens to leave but never actually does?

- Neither really. Nothing so far has come up that would cause one of them to consider leaving the other.

Who actually keeps their word and leaves?

- N/A

Who trashes the house?

- Chris is messy by nature, but usually keeps it to his own motel room. 

Do either of them get physical?

- No. Both keep their hands to themselves when arguing. 

How often do they argue/disagree?

- Not very often. Between them it’s usually because Chris either is too stubborn about something or can’t let something go. 

Who is the first to apologise?

- Chris. After given some time to calm down and think things over he’ll come back and apologize to Ian.

Sex:

Who is on top?

- Most of the time Ian due to simple size difference. 

Who is on the bottom?

- Chris, which he had absolute no problem with. 

Who has the strangest desires?

- Neither really. Both seem to have similar desires, so neither comes off as strange to the other. 

Any kinks?

- Most of it can be grouped into dominance and submission. But Chris keeps the small bag of toys he has on hand tidier and restocked more often now.

Who’s dominant in bed?

- Up until he’s comfortable with it, Ian is. 

Is head ever in the equation?

- No question about it, there absolutely is. It’s also the first time in years Chris was a bit nervous in performing it.

If so, who is better at performing it?

- Much to Chris’ wounded pride, it’s Ian. 

Ever had sex in public?

- Places actually haven’t been discussed a lot on, but with how much of a tease Chris can be there could definitely be a closet or dressing room put to use. 

Who moans the most?

- Normally this wouldn’t be Chris, but in this case, it’s Chris. And he is surprised by this himself.

Who leaves the most marks?

- This is a tie. The both of them like to leave signs on the other that they were there. 

Who screams the loudest?

- Chris. Which again surprises him a bit when all is said and done.

Who is the more experienced of the two?

- Ian, being the older of the two. 

Do they ‘fuck’ or ‘make love’?

- In the beginning it’s just fucking, but when things become more serious and feelings start to grow making love starts to happen more and more. 

Rough or soft?

- Both, both is good.

How long do they usually last?

- Eeeeeeehh, depending on how long one of them has been teasing the other… could be about ten minutes to a couple hours.

Is protection used?

- Nope

Does it ever get boring?

- So far it hasn’t for them. 

Where is the strangest place they’d have sex?

- Well they are part of a traveling group of performers, so the first thing that pops into my head would be either in a movie theater or the bed of Ian’s truck when taking a drive in the back roads.

Family:

Do your muses plan on having children/or have children?

- Chris doesn’t plan on having any children of his own, but Ian does have Duke.

If so, how many children do your muses want/have?

- Duke is enough for Chris once he comes into the picture, and soon he finds himself caring for them more than he anticipates. 

Who is the favorite parent?

- Neither i think. Both will have some work ahead of them to make Duke feel welcomed and wanted around them. 

Who is the authoritative parent?

- Ian mostly, Chris does put a foot down once in a while though.

Who is more likely to allow the children to have a day off school?

- Chris. Ends up taking Duke out somewhere fun like to a music store or to a movie.

Who lets the children indulge in sweets and junk food when the other isn’t around?

- Again Chris. If he isn’t already snacking on something sweet it doesn’t take long before he’s offering some of said snack to Duke.

Who turns up to extra curricular activities to support their children?

- Both, even if Ian has to be talked into going.. Chris is likely the one to bring snacks as well.

Who goes to parent teacher interviews?

- Ian. Chris would feel since he isn’t biologically related to Duke it would end up being awkward for everyone else.

Who changes the diapers?

- Duke is older when Chris is introduced to them. So neither of them.

Who gets up in the middle of the night to feed the baby?

- N/A

Who spends the most time with the children?

- At first it’s mostly Ian who spends time with Duke, but as time goes on Chris starts to spend part of the day with them more and more. 

Who packs their lunch boxes?

- Ian. He’s the better cook to do the job if the lunch is homemade. 

Who gives their children ‘the talk’?

- Ian. Chris is willing to help if asked, but leaves the talk itself to Ian if wanted.

Who cleans up after the kids?

- Duke doesn’t come off as a very messy person, so they probably clean up after themselves most of the time.

Who worries the most?

- This i’m actually not sure of this. Chris is a fairly laid back person and Ian has a knack of keeping a good poker face. But i do imagine that they both would show signs of fussing in their own way at some point in time.

Who are the children more likely to learn their first swear word from?

- Duke probably already knows a number of curses by now, buuuuuuuut being around Chris probably wont help keep him from learning more. 

Affection:

Who likes to cuddle?

- Both do, but Chris is definitely be the one to start it. Often times by helping himself into Ian’s lap and wrapping his arms around him. 

Who is the little spoon?

- Even when trying to be the big spoon Chris ends up looking like the little spoon instead.

- Chris. He likes to test Ian’s patience sometimes….. often.

Who struggles to keep their hands to themself?  

- Once more this is definitely Chris… most of the time. 

How long can they cuddle until one becomes uncomfortable

- For quite a while i think. With how easily Ian can lift Chris it wouldn’t be difficult for Chris to be lifted off the lap when Ian needs to get up. 

Who gives the most kisses?

- Chris, when he’s able to reach Ian’s face of course.

What is their favorite non-sexual activity?

- Going out into the town and exploring the sights. Going from place to place will often bring new things to try in each place. 

Where is their favorite place to cuddle?

- Seeing how they travel a lot, most likely either in Ian’s truck or on the motel room bed.

Who is more likely to playfully grope the other? 

- They both will indulge in a grope at the other, but Chris is probably more inclined to do it during moments when Ian would probably needs to focus on something or someone.

How often do they get time to themselves?

- Once the days work is over and there aren’t any immediate plans to do something they both will usually give each other a bit of alone time.

Sleeping:

Who snores?

- Chris definitely snores, Ian more rumbles in his sleep than actually snore. 

If both do, who snores the loudest?

- Chris

Do they share a bed or sleep separately?

- If they end up sharing a room you can be sure that Chris will make his way over to the bed with Ian. 

If they sleep together, do they cozy up together or lay far apart?

What is their favorite sleeping position?

- Ian prefers to sleep on his back, and Chris likes to sleep sprawled out either on top of Ian or next to him. 

Who hogs the sheets?

- Neither. If the blanket is lost Ian can use Chris as a personal body heater.

- Nope. Both work in the same place. 

Who takes the most sick days?

- Probably Chris. When sick he doesn’t wish to move away from his bed.

Who is more likely to turn up late to work?

- Neither. It’s not wise to be late when your coworkers could easily leave you behind before going to the next town.

What are their jobs?

- Chris is an actor and performer, Ian is a roadie and stagehand.

Who stresses the most?

- Both have moments where stress can get to them, but out of the two Chris is more likely to show and voice it out loud.

- Chris, but only once or twice before realizing he’s left them in Ian’s room or in his back pocket.

Who’s more likely to surprise the other with a fancy dinner?

- I can see either one doing this. Chris would probably be the first to try and take Ian out somewhere nice. 

Who uses up all of the hot water? 

- Mmmmmm, i’m guessing Ian. But with both having their own rooms it’s not much of a problem. 

Who’s the tallest?

- Definitely Ian. Which takes Chris a while to get used to after he starts hanging out with him in the beginning. 

Who’s more likely to just randomly hop into the shower with the other?

- Both are likely to do this if the shower is big enough for the both of them.

- If Ian does do this it’s only on occasion. It’s more likely to see Chris doing this in his own room than Ian.

miyuki for the hc meme ///w///

What does their bedroom look like?Pretty spartan. No tv, no posters, and not much by the way of furniture other than a fan, his bed with rumpled sheets, and a stack of old scorebooks in organized chaos on his old battered desk. He doesn’t spend much time in here other than looking over stuff and sleeping, so he doesn’t feel the need to waste time and effort hanging stuff up he won’t ever look at.Do they have any daily rituals?Nah. Just the standard SSS.Do they exercise, and if so, what do they do? How often?On off-days, he’ll go jogging around dawn because everything is so quiet and still. It’s something he doesn’t get to have to himself often. Other than that, he spends at least some time every day on baseball stuff, whether it’s practicing with his battery partner, hitting, weight training, or cardio.What would they do if they needed to make dinner but the kitchen was busy?He’s a proficient cook by trial and error. It doesn’t take him more than twenty minutes to whip up a quality, healthy meal, and it usually tastes good.Cleanliness habits (personal, workspace, etc.)He doesn’t really accumulate stuff, so he has little to do by way of tidying up. He wears the same hoodie like...all the time, only owns two pairs of jeans, and keeps his school uniform neat so it doesn’t have to be laundered or ironed frequently. All that he needs really is a laundry run and to dust once every couple of weeks and keep up with the trash. As for hygiene, he showers after every practice, so he’s usually easy on the nose. If he’s on holiday from the team and has no obligations, he might grunge it up for a few days if he’s not going out, but he draws the line at being able to smell himself.

Eating habits and sample daily menuHe tends to stick to healthy things for meals, but he has a sweet tooth and doesn’t hate stuff from vending machines (chips, cookies, trail mix, etc). He’ll have simple pork rice for breakfast; a pile of veggies, rice, and lean protein for lunch; and mostly the same as lunch plus a dessert for dinner. He’ll snack on rice balls or the occasional sweet morsel between meals to keep up his energy and to satisfy his desire for junk.Favorite way to waste time and feelings surrounding wasting timeWasting time seems like a boon for him, as he usually has his plate full. At school, he doesn’t bother doing it much because he knows on holidays when he has to go home, he’ll have plenty of empty time on his hands. However, when he leaves school, he starts to value those quiet down moments between waves of Obligation.Favorite indulgence and feelings surrounding indulgingHe isn’t terribly indulgent financially, but he does love himself the occasional junk food splurge. He eats right most of the time, so being bad with his nutrition here and there won’t hurt anybody.Makeup?Nah. He’s way too lazy with his deportment to care about stuff like that. You’re lucky if he remembers to comb his hair in the morning.Neuroses? Do they recognize them as such?Not really. He’s pretty chill about most things.Intellectual pursuits?He is deeply interested in sabermetrics (the science of mathematical probability in baseball), which is stunted by his utter lack of mathematical talent.Favorite book genre?Sports IllustratedSexual Orientation? And, regardless of own orientation, thoughts on sexual orientation in general?He’s pretty demisexual. He doesn’t really care much about stuff like that. People are what they are and like who they like. It doesn’t hurt him at all, so he sees no need to nose in on stuff that’s none of his business.Physical abnormalities? (Both visible and not, including injuries/disabilities, long-term illnesses, food-intolerances, etc.)He has astigmatism, which requires special (i.e. more expensive) contact lenses, which is why he wears his glasses more often. They don’t wear out as fast and cost him more money or force him to see the eye doctor sooner rather than later.Biggest and smallest short term goal?Short term goals are Koushien, not failing his classes, and finding a quiet place to study his notes and video.Biggest and smallest long term goal?Long-term goals are getting his own place, taking cooking classes, and being a pro ball player.Preferred mode of dress and rituals surrounding dressHoodie and jeans for life.Favorite beverage?milk green teaWhat do they think about before falling asleep at night?He usually reviews the day’s practice/game until he falls asleep and hopes his brain will keep working even after he nods off. It doesn’t. It never does. Childhood illnesses? Any interesting stories behind them?Just a chronic case of black eye from mouthing off to his senpai.Turn-ons? Turn-offs?Turn-ons are passion and drive. Turn-offs are willful ignorance and lack of effort.Given a blank piece of paper, a pencil, and nothing to do, what would happen?He’d doodle a strike zone and pitch placement/order ideal for getting out preselected batters.How organized are they? How does this organization/disorganization manifest in their everyday life?He’s not martinet about stuff, but he does have a system because it saves him time and effort. His schoolwork may be a little haphazard, but his baseball stat books, magazines, and charts are usually easy to sort through to find a certain thing. Is there one subject of study that they excel at? Or do they even care about intellectual pursuits at all?Does gym class count? Otherwise, I wouldn’t call him an academic.How do they see themselves 5 years from today?Hopefully playing pro ball.Do they have any plans for the future? Any contingency plans if things don’t workout?If baseball doesn’t work out, he’d like to be a scout/coach/manager for a pro team or maybe go to school to be a chef. What is their biggest regret?That he didn’t get to know his mom a little better. And maybe that he doesn’t spend the kind of time with his dad that he probably should.Who do they see as their best friend? Their worst enemy?He just assumes that he has no friends, though if he had to pick one it would probably be Kuramochi. He doesn’t feel like he has enemies, either, but he would classify Mei as a rival and a bit of a frenemy.Reaction to sudden extrapersonal disaster (eg The house is on fire! What do they do?)He’d be pretty collected and do what he could to minimize the damage. After all, it’s just stuff.Reaction to sudden intrapersonal disaster (eg close family member suddenly dies)He doesn’t deal well with personal responsibility (taking care of himself). Expressing grief and other more negative emotions doesn’t come easily to him, and they don’t always come out when they should. When his mom died, he cried a little, but mostly while he ran around the house trying to keep it looking the way it did before his mom couldn’t take care of it anymore. He just wants things to go back to normal and doesn’t always know how to get there, and it stunts his emotional health when he’s stuck like this.Most prized possession?A home run ball he caught at a Swallows game when he was nine. It’s when he knew he wanted to play baseball.Thoughts on material possessions in general?They aren’t really important to him. Clothes are to wear, not to collect, and stuff really doesn’t serve a purpose other than to occupy empty space. Concept of home and family?*cries* Home is where you sleep and family are people you say hello to when you’re home.Thoughts on privacy? (Are they a private person, or are they prone to ‘TMI’?)He’s not a sharer. Most of the people who know him couldn’t name a handful of facts about him not related to baseball. He doesn’t really mean to be that way, but he doesn’t care about stuff like that when it comes to other people, so he assumes no one else wants to know that stuff about him, either.What activities do they enjoy, but consider to be a waste of time?He doesn’t mind watching tv, but he doesn’t because he has other things to do.What makes them feel guilty?That he doesn’t try harder to build a relationship with his dad.Are they more analytical or more emotional in their decision-making?Definitely analyticalWould they consider themselves a Type A or Type B personality?He’s Type A on the field and Type B everywhere else.What recharges them when they’re feeling drained?A solo soak in the hot tub and a snack, maybe coupled with some inane video work.Would you say that they have a superiority-complex? Inferiority-complex? Neither?Neither.How misanthropic are they?Intentionally? Not so much. Unintentionally? A fair bit. He closes himself off a lot, which makes him seem standoffish and kind of rude at times. He doesn’t do it on purpose, but he does assume that it’s just the way he is and it’s not something he can fix.Hobbies?None, really. His life is almost solely dominated by baseball and avoiding loud people who want him to catch the ball.How far did they get in formal education? What are their views on formal education vs self-education?He’ll finish high school, but given the choice between college ball and the pro draft, he’d take the pro draft. School is an impediment to his baseball life, so if he can remove it, he will.Religion?He visits the shrine on New Years like everyone else, but he’s mostly agnostic. He believes there are things in the universe he can’t possibly conceive, but not so much in the way people go about that particular belief.Superstitions or views on the occult?He’s not a ghost/spirit/magic believer, nor is he superstitious. He’s very much a “I’ll believe it when I see it” type.Do they express their thoughts through words or deeds?Definitely deeds. As noted in his first address to the team as captain, he doesn’t do words very well, but leading by example is something he can do.If they were to fall in love, who (or what) is their ideal?Someone who shares interests and tastes in food, but also enjoys quiet downtime together without the need to fill the silence or the moments with inanity. How do they express love?He loves by sharing pieces of himself with someone that he doesn’t normally give. He’ll let them know things about himself, let them into his privacy, and show interest when they do the same.If this person were to get into a fist fight, what is their fighting style like?He doesn’t tend to fight back. All that does in prolong the fight, but if he just rag-dolls, they’ll lose interest and go away.Is this person afraid of dying? Why or why not?Not really? He might be if he were older and it were more of a reality for him, but he’s too detached from the specter of his own demise for it to be on his radar. He understands it can happen to anyone at any time, but rather than dread it, he hopes he can just go quickly/less painfully and with as little left on the table as possible.

He doesn’t fear death because from personal experience, he realizes that it’s a lot harder to keep on living after someone else dies than it is to be the one who is gone.
