Lincoln: [to Daisy] You're not a murderer.

May: She just said she killed three people.

Lincoln: I know, but I'm saying deep down.

If you’re still doing the ship headcanons, could you do one for Rose Lotus please?

wakes up first.

ren, honestly he has to struggle most mornings to get ruby up before midday. their time across mistral was certainly interesting; he found that the promise of his tea is enough to drag her out of her bed, even if she’s not so chipper.

sings in the shower.

ruby, once she’s woken up that chipperness comes out in full force & honestly, ren really likes to listen to her sing while he helps her wash her hair. it’s understated but a sweet moment they love to share, yknow?

makes breakfast every morning.

ruby tries but ... yeah. it’s best if it’s left to ren, though on their days off, the mornings are usually reserved for him trying to teach her a few quick breakfasts she can do. ruby does surprise him on his birthday with some congee ♥

is the first to think about adopting / having a child.

for a long time both thought they would be happy enough being child free, especially early on in their relationship when they’re still dealing with the toll of what they’ve gone through & dealing with that trauma; & it isn’t until their late thirties ruby falls pregnant. they have a little girl.

gets sick the easiest.

neither get sick super easily, but ruby is definitely the more noticeable when she is sick; ren has no issue laying down the law & sticking her in bed with her video games & some soup. no cookies until she’s better, no matter how much she grumbles..

loves to cuddle.

ruby, ruby is a giant cuddler. but in the beginning of the relationship when ren was still resistant to close contact they had to kind of feel out their boundaries, which ... really made him happy. it was something small but ruby never stepped over those boundaries or made him feel wrong or broken for being the way he is.

falls asleep on the couch while they’re watching a movie.

ren, the pull of just feeling so comfortable & at ease, with ruby snuggled up beside him entranced with the movie; that authentic, homely feeling of peace ... nothing beats it.

is super clingy.

they’re not clingy in the traditional sense but both ruby & ren have lost so much, it’s always a fear at the forefront of their action, this need to at least know that the other is okay & safe for them to feel settled. ren leaves notes, ruby gives him updates on the scroll (usually with pictures of an unimpressed weiss) & when they’re together again, that first night is solely theirs.

A million years ago back during vol 1 I was vaguely into rubyxren because I interpreted them as (and still do) as ace spectrum and I just thought it’d be cute. If this pairing has a name though, I sure don’t know what it is.

My take on Nathanael’s feelings for Marinette

So I saw @luckyladybuggy​‘s question if Nath gets over Mari and I kinda went overboard with my answer.

Okay, so we first see Nathanael drawing  himself, as a superhero, and saving Mari. And we learn that he has a crush on our heroine but has kept silent about it until Chloe did her thing.

And in the course of the episode, his crush becomes more obvious as Evillistrator.

Look at the smile on his face. Like, omg, my crush gonna spend my birthday with me. He even promised to lay off on Chloe.

Nathanael even put Mari before the ‘get me the Miraculous’ HawkMoth call until the supervillain threatened him.

I mean, he trusted her to the point that he’d carelessly give away his weakness. And well,  I have this idea that despite being akumatized, some people somehow still has the heart to not hurt people they kinda harbor strong feelings for and even ask them out on a date in Evillustrator’s case. (It happened with Mylene too in Horrificator and Nino with Adrien’s party.)

And then he learns that there is an entire MariChat thing that happened. And like from being this perf girl, he compares her to Chloe, the girl he hates and had initially put him on the stand and is the primary reason of his negative feelings and him being akumatized.

But lookie here, after returning normal, this is the first thing he sees. Obviously, Nath doesn’t remember all the crap he pulled as Evillistrator which means, he doesn’t remember his feelings for Mari flipping 180 degrees.

But at the end of the ep, we see this. He crosses out the comic where he saves Mari and starts with a pretty cover of what probably is a LB comics. And look at the hearts below which brings us to the question: Does this mean he got over Mari or is he still into her? (Well, Mari and the Lady are the same person but you know what I mean.)

Okay, so in the episode where Chloe lost her bracelet, Nath was one of the suspects since he drew it and they wanted everyone’s bags to be checked and here we see Nath, asking them not to look through his stuff.

What can we get from this? Although this is just speculation, not wanting people to look through your stuff may mean that you have something to hide, something you don’t want others to see. I will connect this fun fact with other stuff later.

Okay so, most of the time, in various episodes he’s just there with a blank or base face. He doesn’t exactly react every time something is going on with Marinette. And even if he might have moved on from her and started admiring Ladybug instead given the Ladybug comics he’s starting and everything (even though those two are the same person and everything), he wasn’t acting like a fanboy in front of Ladybug either.

Nath seems to be inexpressive with his feelings. You can’t tell what he’s thinking by just looking at him unlike when you look at Kim or Mylene and other charas. You probably wouldn’t know what is going through his head unless you see his art. I mean, no one knew he liked Mari until Chloe announced it to the whole class that he drew a comic where he saves the girl.

And that is where we connect the part where he doesn’t want people to see his bag. What could be in his bag that he wouldn’t want people to see? Obviously, not his books. Everyone has those. Not his pencil case. Not his water bottle. And that leaves us with his sketch pad or wherever he draws. He’s probably afraid people will see his drawings, his form of expression.

So how is this related to if he moved on from Mari or not? Okay, so I have two theories here. One is straightforward simple and the other is kinda speculative in nature because we can’t read Nath by looking at his face.

1. Yes, he moved on from Mari. He crossed out the comics where he saves her and starts anew with the LB comics (+ the hearts below the cover could mean that he has the thing for LB now).

2. Nope. He ain’t over her. You probably might be asking, ‘if he ain’t over Marinette, then how do you explain him crossing out that comic, huh?’ Here’s the thing. If you look at nath’s comic where he saves Mari from danger, his portrayal of her isn’t exactly like Mari. The thing is Nath doesn’t really know Mari. I mean, he has a crush on her but doesn’t interact with her much and thus cannot really see her totality, like how she’s witty, sometimes irrational (stealing phones and everything), even kinda analytical. The list could continue on forever. I mean, people go through that stage where they try to understand the person they are crushing on and what if Nath is doing just that with Marinette? What if him crossing out the comic where he saves Mari doesn’t mean he’s over her but is in the stage where he is deciding if he’d try to seriously like her not just the 'sweet, perfect and pretty girl’ concept of her he made up in his head but liking Mari for herself? I mean, the cat is out of the bag. Mari knows he has a thing for her. And that may have triggered Nath to seriously think about the girl. Of course seriously thinking about her may entail him concluding that he doesn’t really like her and thereby moving on but I still don’t think he’d just jump the gun and say ‘nah, I don’t liker her, really.’ unless he’s scared of further embarrassment like what happened before.
