i can't believe how many people view mark and helly as an instance of the "forced heterosexual romance between two leads utterly devoid of chemistry" trend. like i respect your opinion and I've been there with many shows before. but i genuinely could not agree less
#im afraid some of you don't understand the love language of doing a silly bit together#you are beyond my help#I'm not anti mark and gemma in the slightest but in some ways i do think it's more interesting if love DOESN'T transcend severance#i know some people interpreted his desire to save her life as. romantic attraction? but to me it was just basic human kindness#and isn't it fascinating if the two halves of mark are such completely separate people that he DOESN'T feel anything for his own wife?#idk#i think the series will probably end with him reintegrating so it won't get a “mark gets two wives” resolution#but it's an interesting thought#severance#mark scout#helly r#helena eagan#severance apple tv

1, 4, 5, 11, 15, 16, 17, 23 with lautity/holyphone for the otp ask game :3 (no pressure to do all of these btw, i'm just really curious to hear other people's opinions on them since i dont see to many lautity shippers in the wild </3)
Ask game
HEHE its totally okay you could have sent me the whole book.....im so obsessed with them rn its not even funny. i <3 my niche ship nobody else thinks about. and im so sorry for how long this is...stuck it under a cut for safety
also note many of these answers are in the context of my silly fic/AU but u do not have to read it to understand i included context where necessary. mostly i think abt them in terms of my AU but i think most of these are canon applicable as well
1. Who most initiates PDA?
Funny question for these two. Steph is by far more comfortable with PDA and treats it very casually, but she would probably have to slow down and match Grace's pace while she's still adjusting to being visibly in a queer relationship (especially in Hatchetfield/where she risks bumping into family or people from her congregation).
I think Grace is extremely affectionate though and once she's more comfortable (or just living somewhere she's less well known) she would probably initiate at least as much as Steph, if not more. I think she would get into the habit of hand-holding every time they're outside at some point and it would just be muscle memory to grab Steph's hand when they're walking side by side.
4. How did they first meet?
In Slow they met in middle school! Grace joined in 7th grade after attending a religious primary school, Steph failed 7th grade (too many skipped classes) and was taking it for the second time when Grace got there. They don't really interact significantly until a year or two later, but they're in the same homeroom pretty much every year in school, so they're always aware of each other in passing.
5. What is their love language?
I think for Grace the thing that makes her feel most comforted is probably physical touch, but the 'above and beyond' thing for her (and what she holds as a sign of the utmost commitment, at least on her part) is quality time. She's really punctual because she feels it's the best way to show that she cares and wants to be there + she's pedantic about attending her friend's events to show her support. She's also clingy in a 'following Steph around the house' way, she just loves to have company and another person around. Especially if that person is her girlfriend (someone who wants her around. She has not experienced much of this </3)
Steph probably appreciates words of affirmation quite a lot, especially if they're well thought-out. Also enjoys quality time (though she does need Some alone time) and is usually cool without fancy going-out stuff. Prefers casual, appreciates when people make time for her and enjoys the attention of being alone with someone. I think physical touch and being touchy is like breathing to her, just second nature with her friends and especially her partner. Throwing herself across laps and using people as pillows, always bumping shoulders. Stuff like that. it's very casual to her and it's a language for her in that it's how she says 'I feel safe and comfortable around you".
11. Which member is more physically affectionate?
I sort of already talked about this LOL but I think Grace is more intentionally affectionate and is more likely to initiate cuddling or kissing (once they get over the Afraid To Initiate bit of very newly-out Grace). But obviously Steph is always just touching her anyways, often unconsciously (initially this makes Grace's head explode. but she figures it out eventually) so while everything Grace does is thought out Steph is just always being touchy without realizing it because of how relaxed/comfortable she is. I think they're pretty equally matched on like volume but Grace does initiate more Big acts of affection
15. Who is more likely to make an impulsive decision and who is the voice of reason?
Steph has ADHD (to me.) and bad impulse control so she tends to be very spontaneous. I think a lot of the time she'll do things on a whim, even if they're risky, and say whatever comes to her mind. Grace is good at talking her into more safe activities and derailing her when she's feeling righteous and wants to pick a fight with someone twice her size over an insult to one of her friends.
Grace tends to be really unpredictable and impulsive when she's emotional at all and Steph gradually gets better at handling this and calming her down as they're together for longer. Not so much a voice of reason as a source of comfort for her.
Steph is the one online shopping and showing Grace her phone every 5 minutes just for her to go "no, we don't need another one" LOL
16. Who stays up way too late and who tries to drag them to bed?
Steph and her fuckass sleep schedule from parties and arguing online vs Grace, who has never stayed up past midnight, wakes up at 6:30 AM on weekends, makes her bed every morning, never snoozes an alarm... I think even when Grace drags Steph to bed "on time" (still an hour later than she'd like) Steph is just not a morning person and loves getting to sleep in and wake up slowly. Grace eventually learns to appreciate being cozy in bed for a little bit longer, but she never really stops waking up earlier than Steph and getting tons of things done before she even stirs.
17. Who fell in love first?
Hehe. Grace fell first, Steph fell harder/faster. Grace had like... this steadily building crush she didn't know was a crush. I think it probably started when they were in a group project together and Steph kept bumping their knees together under the table. She called them friends once and Grace pretty much did the entire project to please her. And even once Steph started ignoring her in class again she remained unusually fixated on her salvation and helping her. Around Abstinence Camp (summer before sophomore year/10th grade) Steph catches on to the fact that Grace genuinely wants to help her and tries to be nicer. They get more hostile again when Steph is outed as bisexual and Grace discovers what gay people are and that she isn't supposed to like them (but she can save them!). At the point where NPMD begins (around the beginning of their senior year) Steph has not had a non-religious interaction with Grace in over a year, and she is extremely sick of it.
(Slow is an everyone lives AU that has Max sleep with Grace before most of the events of NPMD, and the Waylon prank is both revenge and blackmail so she can force him to 'admit' to lying about it, hopefully preserving her reputations + preventing it from getting back to her parents. Everyone else is in on it for the same reasons as canon, and only Steph knows that Grace slept with Max at the point of the prank)
After finding out about Grace and Max, Steph just starts kind of pitying her because she knows how vicious gossip of this nature is and how cruel people are. So she's like okay, this girl really needs a friend, I can do that for now + being friends with Steph Lauter does give you some level of social standing which she figures she can lend to Grace for awhile. And Grace is still sort of annoying at first. But seeing her passionate + happy during the prank, orchestrating everything, awakens some really long-buried feelings about the weird girl in her homeroom who always tried too hard to relate every book to God, and who had come over to her house and described every research note to Steph while she assembled their poster by herself; Steph had SpongeBob reruns playing (which Grace was apparently not allowed to watch, so she sat with her back to the television) and was mostly tuning her out. They got 100% on their poster, and Steph stopped talking to Grace when her friends started to comment on it.
She feels bad for treating Grace that way + she is genuinely letting herself know this person for the first time and finding that she likes her. Like. Genuinely finds her smart and funny and interesting. She's sort of insane under duress, but it's endearing. But Steph does not pursue people, people come to her, so she sort of brushes it into the back of her mind, because there is no world in which Grace Chasity realizes her obvious queerness before she's 30.
Once she knows Grace likes her shes giggling and kicking her feet and extremely extremely excited about everything but she is trying So Hard to be normal and not rush her. She's sort of flattered about being Grace's first girl(friend?) and really really wants to give her a good experience and treat her well (the way she wishes her first partner had treated her). She is very happy and the only thing she really wishes is that Grace would apologize less and trust her a little more.
#waugh again im so sorry this is so long im kind of embarassed LOL. THANK YOU FOR ASKING ABT THEM !!!#sorry if the last one is unnecessarily convoluted and long. they have history of failing to be friends. to me#and this is why theyre like. so familiar with each other yet so hostile at the beginning of npmd. but also they fall in love#npmd#lautity#stephgrace#holyphone#steph lauter#grace chasity#hatchetverse#ask game

Hello! Can I have a matchup please? I'm okay with both girls and boys!
I'm a female she/her age 19 (I don't mind age gaps tho) I'm okay with poly!
If I were in Arcane I would live in Piltover however I would take a Zaun side
I am pretty social, however I prefer to spend time alone! I care about others a lot… To an unhealthy amount honestly but I'm working on it! I love to help others and make them smile. I care too much about what others feel and think and it's tiring, I also love being mentioned/involved in things, it makes me feel liked!
People call me funny! I am most of the time unserious and I love to joke around, serious situations are stressful so I prefer to be joyful, but I do like talking about serious topics (sometimes) Like I said before I love to make people smile and laugh with my jokes and overall make them happy with my presence.
My humor is definitely not for everyone, it's mostly the humor of a 12 y/o kid which can be annoying to some people lmao. When it comes to annoyance I also like to annoy people, it's so fun! But I never want to make them really feel bad! I often act like an asshole but this is just for jokes. Like I said I don't want them to actually feel bad, if I do, I will feel very guilty! When it comes to it I apologize A LOT, I apologize so much that it might too annoying but I always feel a sense of guilt inside of me. I'm also VERY sensitive and worry about everything. Ah and I'm pretty dumb and I am not trying to insult myself I am just silly hehe and I'm okay with that. Oh and Im very clumsy
Someone can be mad at me a bit and I would about to cry already. Cute things makes me also want to cry… Overall like I said I am very sensitive. I feel guilty about everything 24/7 even if I shouldn't feel guilty
I also have anger issues and its very easy to make me angry.
My biggest love language is words of affirmation, I would say "I love you" and stuff like that very often. The second one is probably physical touch, but sometimes I might not be in a mood but otherwise I love hugs and kisses!
Likes: Everything related to horror, food (especially sweets), games, cute things, plushies I do art!
What I like in someone: Someone strong and smart. I like them crazy! I like when someone is not judging me. Understanding, sometimes I really like when somebody is opposite of me.
What I dislike in someone BIG arogance, when that someone is ignoring me all the time
I hope thats not too much and thank you!!
Have a great day/night!
Hellooo, thank you for requesting <3 @bunnoxy
I match you with:
💗Jinx💗
The two of you met when she was running from the enforcers in the city, and she found herself in your house while you were drawing. Of course, she was really distrusting of you at first, but since the enforcers ran right past your house she didn't feel like she had anywhere else to go without getting caught. Your understanding of her situation got her to slowly but surely trust you more (even though she literally broke in lmao but look at her shes so cute).
Your playful sense of humor aligns really nicely with her chaotic and unpredictable nature, and she absolutely loves whenever you crack jokes with her, even when they're really childish ones. They make her feel like her old self, and while that can be overwhelming for her sometimes, it feels easier when its you making her feel that way.
In intense moments between you two, like if you upset her somehow, she can be really awkward about being apologized to after everything she's gone through with Vi. But she tries her best to take your apologies seriously because even if shes upset over something, she's still afraid of losing you and doesn't really want conflict between the two of you. She's just scared of messing things up above all else.
She loves that you aren't judgemental of her eccentricities, shes really tired of people always trying to tone her down or look at her like shes some type of demon whenever she messes up somehow or she's just causing her everyday chaos, but you've always made her feel accepted which is something she rarely feels.
Jinx is also creative and she loves sharing her random ideas with you while also admiring yours, and while her style can be really difficult to interpret, she enjoys taking time to explain things about her art or invention to you because she wants to impress you in a way, and you can't tell her that you love her art if you don't even know what it is.
I wouldn't say she's the most romantic person, and touch really freaks her out sometimes. But as long as you don't break her trust, she's open to trying new things with you and she finds appreciation in things you do for her, whether its giving her a hug or a kiss, or just telling her sweet things. She will always try to reciprocate that for you, because deep down there's still a girl who wants to change and get better, which can start simply by just opening up more with the one person who will show her the love that she never thought she deserved.
This leads to her randomly surprising you sometimes, with cheeky little hugs or cheek kisses, while these are big steps for her she still loves doing it because she loves the smile it gives you, and that's always enough to brighten her mood all the same.
Her fits of anger and chaos, are almost always ways for her to mask her vulnerability, and she hates feeling vulnerable since it just reminds her of the times in her past where she felt useless or completely powerless. She may accidentally lash out at you sometimes if there's miscommunication, but she quickly realizes what she's doing almost every time, and while she may not apologize as frequently as you would, she still feels incredibly bad and will do what she can to make it up to you, whether its just taking a day to just spend time with you and show you love or spend some time making something nice for you, like a mechanical baby animal or get you a game that you'd like.
While she can be really hyper-focused on whatever project she's working on, she still can't dream of ever ignoring you especially when you make her feel so secure. She doesn't want you to ever feel insecure or feel like she isn't interesting in what you're saying or doing, since the project is probably with you in mind anyways. She will always try her best to make you feel included in whatever she's doing, and since she usually likes the ideas you come up with, she'll even let you take part in what she's working on. This girl just loves your presence 24/7!
Overall, your relationship with her can be a little chaotic at times, but the love is strong and she would never put you in any kind of danger that she'd usually be causing otherwise. You help her to cope with her insecurities in ways other than fits of violence, while still keeping true to her nature, and she loves that she finally has somebody who she feels safe being vulnerable with. All she wants to do anymore is show you that she appreciates and loves you!
Thank you again for requesting and I hope you enjoyed this one! <3

Hi! I was wondering maybe some HC’s on dating Tsuji or Shibaman would be?
Tsuji | General dating hcs
a/n: Hi, im always happy to write for my fav boy 🥺💕 Hope you like it 🌸
Sorry for the grammer or spelling mistakes.English is not my main language so...
Thank you and love you 🥰
Warnings: not much just usual hnl things

* Although most people think of Tsuji and Shibaman as like twins, their characters are pretty different.
* Tsuji is quieter, calmer and smarter than Shiba.
* Also stronger.
* But still, I'd say he's also a bit crazy, although he usually chooses to listen everything first
* He is a very cool character with his hair style that he changes frequently and his unique style
* He has a cool vibe, he seems like a bit of a shy person for being cool
* Crazier than Shiba in fights. Doesn't get angry quickly but can be pretty tough
* He's also quite loyal. We all know that Shibaman and him were with Todoroki from the very beginning and they never left him alone.
* No matter how tough and wild he may seem, I think he is very kind hearted, soft and funny to those he loves.
* For him, I think someone between would be great, rather than someone too serious or too loud.
* Someone who is calm but knows how to have fun, is not afraid to say what she thinks, helpful and cheerful.
* I think Tsuji is quite introverted and not showing his feelings. So he'll be grateful for someone who understands him without he tells
* He's pretty big and tall, so it doesn't matter to him whether you're tall or short, fat or slim.
* I don't think he is afraid to take the first step. But I think when he likes someone, he'll hide it for a while and want to be sure.
* Like I said, he's a weird man so it's not easy to figure out who he likes or him
* Not being silly or excited around the person he likes, he is pretty cool about it
* If you confess first, that's okay too. I'm sure he'll be a little nervous if he doesn’t expect this, but he won't be rude to you.
* I think he would be quite happy with someone he believes truly loves him.
* He is a simple guy
* He will walk with his girlfriend home every night and listen to how her day was along the way.
* Gives me a very good listener vibe, even if he doesn't comment much, he's a good listener
* He's okay with physical contact, always holding his girlfriend's hand or his arm on her shoulder
* I think he's a little shy. So not a PDA fan. But he loves the sweet kisses you give when you tiptoe
* He likes to embarrass you but he doesn't go too far
* Your comfort is always his priority.
* His girlfriend is his second best friend.He wants Shibaman and her to get along well. Because Shiba is like his brother.
* I definitely think he'll introduce his girlfriend to Todoroki and Shibaman's older sister. He cares a lot about their opinion.
* I think he can cook well. Sometimes he makes you a meal and comes to your school and gives it to you.
* He really likes to make you feel like a princess because he thinks you deserve the best
* I think he feels strangely insecure ,so I feel like he'll be happy when you compliment him
* He changes his hairstyle often and can do a couple style with you if you want.
* He likes to working with music. I think he is interested in digital music. And he’ll be pretty happy teaching you how to make a new beat.
* He loves your arms wrapping around his neck when he carries you on his back.
* I don't think he'll mind if you want to put makeup on him. Someone who can do masks and makeup with you when you braid his hair
* Good with remembering the special days
* He's not very good with words but he does everything to make you feel his love.
* He usually has clothes that are oversized and pretty big for you but he finds you pretty cute when he sees you get lost in them
* He wears your hair tie on his wrist, I can imagine him playing with it or the necklace you gave him when he misses you
* Like I said, he's not the type to talk about his feelings much, but he talks with Shiba about you often.
* You changed him a little. He now thinks twice before getting into a figh
* He definitely doesn't want you to see him when he's hurt. He won't even tell you about it.
* Not someone to judge you when you cry. When he sees your eyes watering, he will hug you in his arms and quietly stroke your hair until you relax.
* Definitely big spoon, he's huge so he likes to hug you tight in his arms
* I don't think he is very knowledgeable about your period, so he often asks you what you need and wants to help.
* I don't think he will be afraid of anyone or anything easily. But he is quite afraid of harming you. That's why he always wants to protect you
* The thing he fears most is that one day he will hurt you unintentionally or you will be afraid of him. That's why he doesn't want you to see him fighting
* If you belong in their world, he never wants you to see him lose control even you are fighting beside him
* He may be cold to many people but always in his most natural way around you.
