What does Link think of Vulpecula?

[higanbana.insanejournal.com]

[fill_the_blanks.insanejournal.com]

Y, mostly. A lot of the stuff about him feeling like Syaoran is dense about certain things still applies, but he feels like Syaoran is starting to understand him a little more now. WHICH CAN BE A DOUBLE EDGED SWORD when he manages to hit dere buttons and accidentally tops Ace in the feelings a little but OVERALL AN IMPROVEMENT. GO UP AN SLINK or whatever the term is.

RECENTLY he was secretly being dumb and kinda jealous of Syaoran because of everyone cheering up a lot when he got back. WELL he is simultaniously glad Syaoran is back, just also some of his bluh-bluh stupid-time-displacement feelings got stirred up so he was being stupid and moody by himself. AND THEN SYAORAN WAS STUPID AND THOUGHTFUL AT HIM AND HE WAS LIKE GAWD, STUPID SYAORAN!!1 EAT HALF THIS APPLE!!!

:|a yes.

IDK, FEELINGS ON ACE LATELY?

[fill_the_blanks.insanejournal.com]

You can just go reply to my having moods post.

[higanbana.insanejournal.com]

Okay fine, but I also want to know Link's feelings.

[type_0.insanejournal.com]

What's Link's favorite pie flavour?

[clap_your_hands.insanejournal.com]

Any changes?

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

...yeah idek.

[fill_the_blanks.insanejournal.com]

He kkkind of likes them??? He's sort of weirdly touched by Lucky's fanatical devotion to the concept of loyalty so while he's still sort of wary of Vulp cuz they're kind of crazy like all of the time, he can't help liking them either since Lucky made it clear she'll only shank people she doesn't like and that she likes Del enough not to shank them. I don't think he's that good at getting along with them on like, personal levels, because he's just too polite, but if they ever need help he'd be willing to do what he can.

Also Arson is a nice, level-headed boy and he wants to do nice things for him.

I think I made it banana cream pie, but that may have also just been me being terrible...

[type_0.insanejournal.com]

... oh that IS terrible.

[fill_the_blanks.insanejournal.com]

Pppprobably not much right now? Though Ed's been much more stable lately and even took his last sig-neg without breaking too badly, from what he saw? Link is also starting to settle some of the issues that were making him kind of inward focused, so hopefully there will be moving in a good direction and slightly more inclination to rely on Ed for things if this continues.

ERM.. revvveerrsse? sob why do I do these things I am so bad at questions.

[fill_the_blanks.insanejournal.com]

you can tell me RED'S FEELINGS??

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

YOU FIRST. . .

[clap_your_hands.insanejournal.com]

Not a lot unfortunately... Ed is sort of stuck right now in a "two steps forward, one step back" state, so he's making a bit of progress, but keeps falling back from it too. He still doesn't quite think Link trusts him or will rely on him, in spite of what was said during the honesty meme game, and has at this point... more or less just gotten used to that as the normal state of his life on Delphinus. (But would really like it if they could move in a more positive direction.)

Hm. First impression from Kon, if he has one?

[fill_the_blanks.insanejournal.com]

FEELINGS

[fill_the_blanks.insanejournal.com]

I mean no

um...

[fill_the_blanks.insanejournal.com]

Wait I guess that's not very double edged sword at all. What I meant was that now that he understands Kon more, he likes him better, but it also means Syaoran can occasionally make him tsun out at him... JUST TO CLARIFY...

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

BASICALLY he thinks that Kon is Secretly A Super Kind Person and just rolls with any tsun and abuuuuuuuuse because that's just what he does. To him Kon is still all about Red and he super hopes that he takes care of Red because as far as he is concerned Red just won't let him or anyone else do it. If they try it's like hitting a brick wall of noface but Kon doesn't seem to hit that wall /o/

For awhile he super wasn't sure what he was and wasn't allowed to do with Kon and Syaoran BY NATURE respects personal space and boundaries to a ridiculous degree though BY TRAINING that's faded quite a bit. At least for him. But until he gets some kind of go ahead he will super step off other people! And he got that impression somewhere along the line from Kon so now he feels like 8U IT IS MY THING I MUST PROTECT IT AND FEED IT APPLES AND RUFFLE ITS HAIR.

Syaoran loev teammates Foreman better step off :E

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

oops you beat me :|a

MY REPLY IS UP THERE ^^^

[sharksong.insanejournal.com]

LINK WHAT ARE YOU FEELINGS ON CERTAIN HYDRA LEADERS :B

what is this icon I don't remember this keyword

[sharksong.insanejournal.com]

CUTE ICON

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

o though I guess I could add to that he basically figured out it wasn't that Kon didn't want anything to do with him, it was that Kon is a tsun-type and sometimes yells and throws books at you as a means of dealing with feelings.

not that he knows what tsuntsun is, mostly he just mentally compares it with Kuro :|a

I like relationships tell me about ours

Not a meme answer yet, just making sure you see this (http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_uw6czCWBymA/TRYpERsuCnI/AAAAAAAAA9s/tYCiZuPOQz0/s1600/twistedprincess_rapunzel.jpg).

[letdownmyhair.insanejournal.com]

Ooh he did a Rapunzel one! Somehow I must get her Mirrored into this.

[hacks_ur_garden.insanejournal.com]

WE JUST MET i'mma ask anyway.

[fill_the_blanks.insanejournal.com]

OKAY I AM GONNA MAKE AN ATTEMPT TO TRACK HOW THIS HAPPENED except I haven't archived Kon's threads yet so [waves handsss] well, it'll be true to the general idea. BUT ANYWAY I'm pretty sure some of the blame falls on the fact that they had that Lover game on his first day, because that pretty much introduced him to teasing Red about inappropriate things to get funny reactions, also poking Red's feelings. Kon is a little like that in canon, where he likes to tease and sometimes make dirty jokes, but it's mostly for the easy reactions. Getting into someone's pants isn't the goal at all. That's all it was early on for Ace too, but the nature of being in a strongly team-oriented team and just the emotional charge of the Sabra environment means he got a lot closer to the people around him, especially Red and Yayoi, who are the teammates he feels the most comfortable with. Aaand for Kon, being physical tends to be sort of a natural extension of platonic feelings. It is fun to rough-house and harass and tease the people he likes, and nice touching is just more ways to express friendliness. And Red has a lot of reactions Ace enjoys. What really started to push things into sexual-tension territory for Ace was the Inhibitions Apples, where he just decided to follow his whim and Red reacted in ways that only encouraged him to keep doing it. That's pretty much when he honestly thought, ":|a... yeah, I'd do him."

Hilariously, he tends to have commitment issues, though they are definitely not as bad in Sabra as they would be in canon, so when they had that talk (when they were drunk) where Red was like "I WILL NEVER FIND LOVE" Ace was sort of mentally like "orz, well what am I supposed to say to that..." (and then he took his memory cuz that was easier). SO AFTER THAT he sort of thought maybe he'd lay off a bit, except he still had -thoughts- and so he was like "bluh, this tension is stupid :|" so they had their dumb talk where Ace petted him and concluded he would eventually molest Red sometime. AND THEN HE DIDN'T RIGHT AWAY because as much fun as he has pushing other people's boundaries, when he likes and respects someone he's mindful enough not to just do whatever he feels like if they honestly might have issues with it... Also, he fully intended to step off when Red and Rapunzel sorta developed a thing, but he just kind of got used to the dumb flirting and banter and harassment so that didn't work at all...

SO yeah, what really made it OK to Kon was Red telling him he was thinking about kissing him (even if he wussed out) \o/! That was not actually where he meant for that conversation to go! But he was just like WELL WHY NOT. As much as he meant to back off and let Red have his space, if Red was having enough feelings to try to take initiative then well... it's still something he wants. He's... not very monogamous, and if Red decides he would still rather find a lady friend to be with exclusively Ace would be pretty much okay with that, though he would be very bad about not flirting or teasing still, and telling him to stop would probably result in sexual tension building up again...

[fill_the_blanks.insanejournal.com]

(and then I split this into two comments cuz I added another sentence)

:|a Other than that, Ace's feelings are still strongly platonic at the moment, mmmmaybe edging on friend-crush-ish somethingsomething?? I MEAN. He does really like Red a lot! They get along well and he is fun to be around and poke and tease and Ace likes it when he's able to honestly put Red in a better mood. Though he also... doesn't always want to talk to Red about issues he's having first, half cause he feels dumb about his own issues and half because he's occasionally worried Red will get all Cepheus-syndrome about his issues and be sad and stressed while trying to comfort him at the same time and... that'd be dumb. But yeah, ANYWAY, wanting to molest Red isn't a result of lovelove feelings as much as strong friendship feelings + some hormones... Also, kissing Red when he was having too many tsundere feelings is just a different outlet for them, instead of yelling and blushing and having a tsundere fit... But you knew that. Tsundere kiss. HE APPRECIATED RED TELLING HIM HE WAS BEING DUMB, and that he's not alone. Red even said it already before, so Kon was like YEAH this is dumb, I am being stupid, TSUNTSUNdere...

BLUH OK DONE unless I think of anything else I FEEL LIKE YOU PROBABLY KNOW MOST OF THIS

RED'S FEELINGS ON ACE, GO

[grewuptootsun.insanejournal.com]

In Cepheus Red generally plays the playful but loving older brother figure. He tries really really hard to be this kind of person who supports and looks after his team. Its the role he's given himself! On the flipside, as Syaoran often notes--this makes it so Red also tends to neglect himself in order to do this. And he tries really hard to be on his best behavior.

So first off, Ace is a wonderful emotional outlet. Right now he's the one he doesn't mind getting pissy around, getting serious around. He still prefers not to be sad near him or anything like that, but if he had a major emotional crash and couldn't help it, he'd probably seek relief from those feelings by just flopping on Ace when no one is around to see it. It's actually a spot similar to Claude and Allen who are his other go-to people when he's sad. He loves Syaoran to death but Syaoran just has too much on his plate. And Yayoi he just prefers to not see him weak. But Ace is okay. Kind of a JERK. But okay. He can talk to him about serious things and feelings without too much problem. At least, the kind of things he can talk about with Claude and Allen. Every here and there he has some roadblocks with what he's willing to say but those generally apply to everyone when they happen.

In general he thinks Ace is fun to be around usually. He gets annoyed a lot yeah but it's not the kind that deeply upsets him. It's just a very tsun relationship and a lot of it is play, even the complaining about Ace to others. As for the rest of the tsun, well. Red's not use to being called out on things, not use to people being that blunt even though sometimes HE is that blunt himself. It's good for Red! He won't admit it all the time but deep down he knows it's true. Ace had become very dear to him, important to him, and he's glad he has his special kind of jerk support. He likes how smart he is, how clever he is. He likes that Ace is more down to earth like he is. There's not really anyone else on the team but Ace who can listen to Red make cold, logical decisions like Red did at that one Mirror game and not freak out. That moment was important to Red, it made him feel like someone had his back, understood his feelings, understood that Red was being like that cuz someone had to be. Ace is a good person without being extreme and self sacrificing about it, which is VERY REFRESHING after the likes of Syaoran and Claude who make TERRIBLE LIFE CHOICES. Before that only Allen really had that role. And Allen can't always be there because even if they're partners now, they're not on the same team.

Then there's that...other stuff. When all is said and done, he does enjoy it. He likes the special attention, he likes the affection. He always tsuns and stalls at first but eventually he just gives in to feeling good and doesn't think too much at all. And for a little while he can just be there being catered to with all~ the most delicious kinds of pettings and skritches. And its relaxing and feels great and for awhile he can be less tense and not worry too much and he's managed to get into a mindset where he's not taking that part of their relationship too seriously. Its embarrassing to talk about but it's nothing that bothers him too much.

What else... He was a little :\ about the I FEEL DISPLACED :( thing but that got sorted QUICKLY and he feels like its NOT THEIR BAD because he feels like Ace had integrated into the Cepheus PERFECTLY and that everyone loves him and he should know that STUPID. But he also enjoyed being sappy at Ace cuz he has realized that tops him. And nothing is more fun than making the tsun causer to become the tsun. In fact he thinks its both hilarious and cute and will make sure to do it again every once in a while. :) I LUV U ACEEEE

[boundbydevotion]

Link has been relatively closed off toward Kuchiha since she arrived. He's been helpful as usual and makes sure whatever needs she has are looked after but he hasn't tried to make emotional attachments, and actually was actively resisting it a bit because he could tell she has the type of personality that he feels most comfortable with, and at the time he wasn't ready to deal with being close to people again.

NOW THAT HE'S resolved a lot of his internal issues and the hurt of important teammates leaving has dulled a bit, he'll probably try to make a better effort at getting to know her, since he feels more prepared to do that now. He was really pleased with how she handled herself in the waterbearer trauma game and is happy that she seems like she can deal with the kinds of decisions they may have to make. WHEN WE ARE BOTH PLAYING AGAIN I need to hit up Kuchiha for stuff and maybe let her borrow Soujirou's sword until we can get hers back.
