Phainon, who has spent weeks working up the courage to even sling an arm around Mydei's shoulders after a good mission, agonizing over the possibility of rejection and risk of straining the entire dynamic of the Chrysos Heirs' team: "H-Hey, great job in today's battle!"

Mydei:

#honkai star rail #phaidei #mydei #phainon #classic star shitposting #but being serious #this IS the Phaidei dynamic for me lol #Phainon who is terrified of getting attached to anything #whose anxieties over his duty and how people see him #make it SO HARD to be honest about his feelings #(even when they're pretty obvious to everyone else anyway)#and Mydei who has so little goodness and softness in his life #that he just *absorbs* whatever is offered #*without* ever expecting any more of it to come along #Phainon: I won this duel so I deserve--*huge bracing inhale*--a HUG!#Mydei: ? Okay?#repeat this 15967699 times until someone finally asks them #“When's the wedding?” and then Phainon is immediately like #“What?? NO WAY!! Mydei and I are arch-rivals!!”#and Mydei is just nodding along #“Yes we're rivals; that's a good enough description”#but like #he's wearing Phainon's pants when he says it #it doesn't occur to either of them that this is utterly bizarre behavior #because neither of them has a frame of reference for “normal”#in the first place
