There’s an explosion. Which of your BrOTP reacts first, and how?

Cassandra was the first to react, because Demetrius was caught in the explosion and couldn’t think properly for a while because of the shock. Cassandra’s first reaction was to go out and try to figure out what was happening, but didn’t find out until later exactly how bad it was. To be honest, she’d started panicking because she thought Demetrius was dead, because she couldn’t find him, but later found out he’d been taken to the hospital. 

Not entirely how I wanted this variation to turn out, but it got most of the idea down. Might be a little confusing, but hey, death scenes. 

Wait doesn’t this sound familiar?

Character A’s parents suddenly demand to know when the wedding will be held, while Character B’s parents demand to plan the wedding.  How does your ship react?

Alex and Cody probably wouldn’t care about many wedding details, and would leave it all to Cody’s mom. Alex wouldn’t know what to feel, he didn’t think his parents had enough of an interest in him and his friends that supported him through their very messy divorce to care that he was going to spend the rest of his life with one of them.

Describe your character’s keys. 

How many keys do they have? What do the keys look like, what are they for? Are they decorated or marked in any way? What kind of key ring or chain do they use? Do they have any charms or add ons? Do they carry something like pepper spray or a whistle with their keys? Where do they usually carry their keys, and are they good at remembering to take them places? 

The best way to describe Demetrius’ keys are: lost

He loves using them, and is an avid driver. Sometimes it’s hard to see how he managed to get a driver’s license in the first place, because he can get so wild. Sometimes it’s hard to see how he doesn’t get pulled over multiple times a day. You’d think that he’d know where his keys are all the time, because he loves driving so much and will leap at any chance he can to go for a spin, though Toby tries to drive everywhere as much as possible so Demetrius isn’t behind the wheel. But he’s always losing his keys, whether he accidentally drops them somewhere or just forgets where he put them. His electronic car keys stay separate from the rest of his keys, which are for work when he has to lock up or get out something special.

Your ship were high school sweethearts. What’s the best memory (romantic or cute or funny) they share?

Probably their first real kiss, but all the little moments in between them when they wanted to cheer the other one up, or when Tal was bored and rambling about something that Kyle was only half listening to. Any time they were in their own world, like the ones that Tal used to illustrate and describe with such detail when he was a kid, and ones that still live inside his head but he doesn’t know how to get them out into the world.

fuckyeahcharacterdevelopment:

Your ship has a petty argument that escalates and, in the heat of things, they break up with each other. How do the shipmates get back together? Who fights for whom and how?

Tal’s never been very good at controlling his anger, and if it was that bad he would do something drastic like break up with Kyle. It wouldn’t take long to regret it though, and he wouldn’t leave Kyle’s window until they made up and got back together. Despite the danger of falling, he’d probably even sleep out there until Kyle forgave him.

fuckyeahcharacterdevelopment:

Has there ever been a rival for one of you ships affections? Or someone who tries to get in the way of you ship?  And what feelings are attached?

Most of Tal’s friends have never liked Kyle, though if any of them let Tal know they’d stop being his friend pretty fast. Tal never really liked it when other people took Kyle’s attention, because it happened so rarely and normally Kyle was there whenever Tal needed him. The only time his jealousy was really merited, however, was when Kyle met Tom, though that wasn’t meant to happen, let alone last. 

fuckyeahcharacterdevelopment:

Do the two share a bed? If so, did they get it together? Who had the bigger say in the bedspread? Are there set “sides” that they sleep on?

When Tal and Kyle got older than eight, Tal’s single bed just wouldn’t work for them anymore, so Tal’s mom decided to upgrade it. As they got older and older, they shared it together less, but in general whoever flops down first gets to decide which half of the bed they’ll be sleeping on. Neither really cares about the bedspread.
