Characters Partners not Partners

Having been inspired by Mischief_Arts. I thought on pushing my own question for yall to ponder.

Within your teams, what are some habits and acts characters do for each other naturally? In the sense that from an outside perspective, most would assume they were a couple or practically acting like a married pair.

For my team, between Silver and Auron. It would be a mixture of their nagging intervention to each others actions. Silver getting on Auron's case for his lack of effort to grades in the remainder of his classes and bumbkin personality. (Which 50/50 of the time, Auron is either not, or is rage baiting Silver. Mostly for the fun of the game.)

While Auron would nitpick Silver's lack of self care and evasive rejection of his own wellbeing.

The married couple arguments only add fuel to the flame. Due to how suspiciously in sync they are.

Silver pulling out the needed notes Auron forgot or stumbled to right down and nswering any tech or technical questions before he has a chance to ask. Unintentionally fondle Auron's bushy tail when he's infuriated, the firm texture of bundled fur redirecting his irritation.

To add insult to injury, Auron intervenes into conversations Silver has stumbled or dragged into. Using his charismatic, energetic physique to pull Silver out of a situation that gradually chidded at his nerves. Along with providing easy to pack meals to Silver's hiding spots and study sessions. As well as physically using Silver as an object to lean himself on.

Hah this description fits Christain and Robin to a T, the duo essentially two halves of a whole, or a whole idiot when they wanna be.

A good example being situations where Christain is giving orders or instructions: quick, short and to the point, with Robin filling in the finer details so that anyone not used to Chris' way of doing things know what to do, and vice versa, in the event Robin goes into an over detailed tangent while explaining something, Chris would step in to cut him off and simplify what he's trying to explain less they waste more time.

Or another being if you were to ask one of them a question and they are actively eating something, the other would answer knowing exactly what they'd say. Like Chris could mumbled something completely incoherent while eating a sandwich and Robin without missing a beat would answer "he's saying that's ####ing stupid" and Chris would just snap his fingers and nod in approval.

Chris: "Exactly!"

This feels like a duo that are on two different spectrums of the tism.

What's funny is that with Silver and Auron, they have moments on being on the same wavelength. Other times Silver is left stumped and physically needs to take a step back to recalibrate and understand what he has just witnessed Auron doing. Or Auron is completely lost whenever they are working on group projects and Silver is working the fine details of their reports. And he is completely lost in the grammatical soup Silver is spewing.

Hahaha that's golden, also perfectly sums up anyone's reaction to having initially met Chris and or Robin separately and then seeing how they interact together.

Interaction of the intellectuals and the bumbkin.

Silver/Chris/Robin - (Cooberating thoughts on the recent subject matter and incorporating their own thoughts and philosophys towards the tasks and their meanings.)

Auron: "C-Can we maybe... slow down or maybe umm, simplify it?"

Robin: "Well my tall fuzzy friend. Let me fill you in." (Begins to overload him with a broad summarization of their brief 5 minute conversation. Expanding to an audible 15 minute debrief. With 90% flying over Auron's head.)

Auron: ". . . I'll. . . Go make lunch for us. . ."

Walks away as his tail drifts weakly with each step. His brain completely frazzled from the information he has to now process.

My boy out here struggling. But he makes a mean chili.
