CAROL DANVERS
  • 06. What counts as cheating and is cheating forgivable?
    Sex is definitely cheating. Getting into bed (or wherever) with someone and getting off is definitely cheating. For other things, it's about intent? Emotional affairs can be just as destructive as a physical affair, and some kisses don't mean the same thing as other kisses. There's a huge difference between making out with a friend if drunk (which Carol wouldn't be, these days) or really getting emotionally involved.

    Forgiveness also depends on context. If a short-term partner cheats on her, then yeah, it's total grounds to drop him. But with a longer-term partner, then ... it depends on how invested that affair was. Carol's likely to forgive, say, Steve if he slept with someone else as a one-off heat-of-the-moment thing, but she's far less likely to forgive if he carried out a long-term affair behind her back. It's definitely less about the physical (though that's part of it) and more about the emotions behind it.

  • 07. Have they or would they ever cheat?
    Yeeeeeeeeeeeahno? I don't think she's ever cheated in canon, but if I'm wrong, then I'm wrong. XD So going with the assumption that she hasn't cheated in canon, I'm going to say that Carol isn't likely to carry out an affair. She's a runner, so if she's unhappy in a relationship she's not afraid to end the relationship if she's not happy.

    However, I think it's possible that Carol could sleep with someone casually and deeply regret it. It's a lot less likely now, because she's really turned her life around, but back when she was in her "perpetual screwup stage" that's definitely something she was likely to do. Self-sabotage was kind of a thing. It's not her thing now, though, so I really don't see her being in a situation where she'd consider cheating on her partner. It would have to be a situation where she didn't have a chance to think about it, but given that Carol doesn't drink anymore that's super unlikely.

  • What sort of experience do they have with sex?
    Uh. Carol's kind of a serial dater. Casual sex isn't really her thing unless the connection's really electric and it leads to a relationship. She doesn't have a huge problem with the idea of a one-night stand, but it's not necessarily something she's into.

    She has a pretty long list of exes that she's slept with, but the number's not particularly high. She's never slept with a woman. She's never tried BDSM or anything particularly kinky — not that she wouldn't try it, it just usually doesn't come up because sex is rarely something that she sits and talks out, it just happens spontaneously. She owns a few sex toys but she doesn't bring them out for anything other than personal use.

  • How comfortable are they with their partner's body?
    Have you seen Steve Rogers? Yum. Carol will lick every single part of that body, my God.

  • Post-sex habits? Weird habits?
    Carol's the kind of woman who will high-five you after sex. She wants to chat. She wants to eat junk food naked in bed and talk. She's cuddly, but she's not really a sexy romantic cuddler, she's just ... kind of a dork.

MATT MURDOCK (616)
  • 01. Does your character believe in true love or soul mates? Love at first sight?
    Uhm. Yes. The problem is that Matt falls in love too hard and too often. I don't think he'd say he would say he believes in it, though, except to kind of shrug and say "maybe" — but he'd probably be kind of sad and broody about it because he'd be thinking about dead girlfriends.

  • 02. Are they or have they ever been in love?
    Uggggh. Always. Matt falls in love with women and doesn't let go. Ever. Even if feelings change and they're enemies, he never really falls out of love. His obsessions run deep even when he's keeping his distance. Somehow he never manages to break up with a person and be like "ugh, dat girl, I hate her."

  • 03. What are their general feelings about sex?
    Matt falls into bed with people easily, but he actually takes it pretty seriously. Sex is a way to connect with people in an intimate way, and because of his senses being so overblown it all gets overwhelming really fast.

  • 04. How do they feel about sex without love?
    He doesn't have any kind of ... moral problem with it, and he'll definitely do it, and Matt will definitely fall into hatesex with someone — but with the way Matt falls for people and feels about people, it's really rare that he actually has strictly casual sex.

  • 05. What about sex before marriage?
    LOL.

  • 06. What counts as cheating and is cheating forgivable?
    Matt will forgive anyone. Really. If he's in love with someone, they can't do anything wrong. His girlfriend can go sleep with literally anyone, multiple anyones, and it takes a hell of a lot for Matt to be like "you know what, this isn't working for me." He's intensely forgiving, probably too much so. As a result, he doesn't really think about "cheating" as a concept too much. Sleeping with someone is probably cheating, but kissing someone? Eh, that doesn't matter.

  • 07. Have they or would they ever cheat?
    Soooort of? He slept with Dakota North while he was still married to Milla Donovan, but Milla was incapacitated in a psych ward. I don't know if there are other instances, but it wouldn't surprise me.

    Matt makes super bad decisions with his love life and he's easily swayed by physical touch. He also doesn't really know how to break things off with people, so I can see him kind of being with one woman and having an affair with another but angsting about it the whole time. It has to be super emotionally intense for something like that to happen, though.

  • 08. Are they a virgin?
    bahahahaha.

  • 09. First partner? Most recent?
    I don't know if Elektra was his first partner, but she was one of his first. They dated in college, and she was one of his first girlfriends. Things are kind of weird now.

    Most recently, in-game, it's Felicia! Hai Felicia!

  • 10. What sort of experience do they have with sex?
    Matt's list of women is long and tragic. XD He's experienced, but he doesn't experiment with anything other than vanilla very often. I don't think he talks things out much, and sex is spontaneous and emotional and he rarely has time to be like "yo, you know what I'd like to try? buttplugs". However, uh, if a woman wants to tie him up and dominate him, he will do it.

  • 11. How comfortable are they with their body?
    Comfortable. Matt's not self-conscious, he doesn't mind being naked from an aesthetic standpoint, he doesn't mind being touched ... but being naked is vulnerable just from a sensory standpoint (particularly since he can't see), so he prefers to be touched gently and isn't a huge fan of surprises.

  • 12. With their partner's body?
    Mmmmnope. Matt's not shy.

  • 13. Who gave them "The Talk"?
    Uh. His dad, because in official 616 Jack Murdock didn't die until Matt was an adult. And I actually imagine that it was pretty similar to the conversation that Burt Hummel gives Kurt in Glee, but... without the gay stuff. But it was probably kind of awkward and gruff, but ended with Jack telling Matt not to throw himself around and remember that he matters, and not to treat himself or his partners like they don't matter.

  • 14. Post-sex habits? Weird habits?
    Matt is so clingy. Matt is so fucking clingy. Oh, my God. He wraps his arms around his partners after sex and he snuggles and cuddles and doesn't want to let go. He wants to talk quietly, and this is the part where he's likely to get overly emotional and have deep existential conversations about the nature of love, blahblah.

REMUS LUPIN
  • 01. Does your character believe in true love or soul mates? Love at first sight?
    Sort of? I definitely think that Remus believes that two people can fall in love and live with each other forever, but he doesn't think that people are ever destined to be together and it's a Thing(tm). Remus definitely subscribes to the idea that love, real love, is based on friendship, trust, and genuinely knowing another person — which means that "love at first sight" can't be real love. Attraction, sure, but not love.

  • 04. How do they feel about sex without love?
    He's had a ... lot of it. I'm not going to say that Remus's list of partners is extensively long, but Remus has a string of one-night stands based on the need to connect with people in a physical way but not being willing to let them in emotionally.

    He doesn't think it's wrong, but it's kind of sad when he leaves, and he doesn't really feel good about sex without love. It's fun for a while, until he thinks about it, and then he feels guilty. He definitely gets more fulfillment out of sex with love and affection.

  • 06. What counts as cheating and is cheating forgivable?
    I don't think Remus expects to be forgiven if he cheats, but he's another one of those types who will be overly forgiving. It depends on context, depends on how emotional the affair is, but Remus is definitely likely to take a person back or forgive because he's just ... overly forgiving and starved for love. He's kind of a doormat in other areas, so I don't see why that wouldn't transfer to this.

  • 11. How comfortable are they with their body?
    Not... terribly. Remus is underweight, pale, and has a lot of ugly scars. He's not very comfortable getting undressed in front of people, and he can be kind of shy about letting a new partner really look at him (one-night stands are always half-clothed and/or done in the dark). He definitely needs to be warmed up before he feels comfortable being looked at, and he always gets kind of an illicit thrill when he actually feels like his body is attractive to someone, like it's ~not supposed to be.~

ERIK LEHNSHERR
  • 01. Does your character believe in true love or soul mates? Love at first sight?
    No. Not really. Erik barely understands romantic love so I don't think he really thinks of these things are being real, either.

  • 02. Are they or have they ever been in love?
    Erik is painfully in love with Raven. And Charles. I just don't think he knows how to express that healthily or come to terms with that. He knows his feelings are intense, he knows he wants them both in slightly different ways, but he doesn't know how to articulate it.

  • 03. What are their general feelings about sex?
    It's complicated. Sex is a means to blow off steam, but it's vulnerable and emotional anyway. It's a power thing. It's a dominance thing. It's a submission thing. It's a way of expressing emotions and needs that he can't bring himself to talk about. Erik craves attention, he craves affection, he craves love. Emotional sex is a way to get it.

  • 04. How do they feel about sex without love?
    He doesn't have a lot of sex without some kind of feeling, but usually it's more of a power rush than anything else. He's attracted to power, he's attracted to strong personalities, and he doesn't have to be in love in order to have some kind of fulfilling sex. Sex without love is easy and detached and hot. Sex with love is actually difficult and overwhelming and he has all kinds of feelings and no way to healthily deal with them.

  • 05. What about sex before marriage?
    Whatever.

  • 06. What counts as cheating and is cheating forgivable?
    Context, context, context. But tell me this: do you really want to be the lover who cheats on Magneto?

  • 07. Have they or would they ever cheat?
    He's never been with anyone long enough to cheat. He's with Raven but he's also in love with Charles -- but Raven is also in love with Charles, and their emotions are all tangled and complicated and they accept that.

  • 08. Are they a virgin?
    nope.

  • 09. First partner? Most recent?
    Erik's first sexual partner was a girl he met a few years after the war. She was slightly older, more experienced, and definitely pursued him and ~taught him things.~ It was kind of a passionate stereotypical European affair and it ended tragically, she was probably married, I don't know, I'm making this up. But it was definitely someone who showed him the ropes before he started to pursue people himself.

    Most recently, Raven, sup.

  • 10. What sort of experience do they have with sex?
    Erik's sexual experience has been limited to brief affairs (a month at most) and one-time encounters. He doesn't really seek out sex often, but once he sees someone he's attracted to he can be quite seductive and will go after them with single-minded determination. He's been with women, he's been with men. He's attracted to personality more than gender. He's attracted to people who fuel his ego. He's attracted to people who give him something he's missing.

    Little to no experience with BDSM kink, but he'd probably try it — except you don't want to trust him with dominating, because he's likely to go too far, or submission because he might snap out of the scene and do something dangerous. I don't think structured kink is really for him, honestly.

  • 11. How comfortable are they with their body?
    Surprisingly less comfortable than he'll let on. Erik is somewhat uncomfortable being naked and putting himself in a vulnerable place, so either emotions have to be running high or he needs to be with someone he trusts in order to fully undress.

  • 12. With their partner's body?
    Yes? Totally. Raven's a goddess, look at her. She's perfection.

  • 13. Who gave them "The Talk"?
    Uh. No one. He figured it out.

  • 14. Post-sex habits? Weird habits?
    Erik can detach relatively easily and just walk off, but when he's with someone he cares about he's actually quite affectionate. He wants to hold the person he's with and just sit quietly for a while, talking thoughtfully about whatever's on his mind, or just listening. His post-sex manner is actually very pleasant. He's relaxed and open and more okay with being vulnerable, and it's probably the happiest you'll see him.

MILO PYM
  • 06. What counts as cheating and is cheating forgivable?
    I feel like Milo, as easygoing and cynical as he is about romance sometimes (and perhaps he's of the "monogamy is unrealistic" train of thought), would ultimately be rather unforgiving of cheating. He doesn't care who it's with or what's done, he will absolutely throw you out of the house. He might set your clothes on fire or slash your tires or do something else to be vindictive.

    That's not to say he won't eventually forgive, but he's not going to listen right away. Given some space, there's opportunity for healing, but he won't really say he's sorry for breaking your stuff when you broke his heart.

  • 07. Have they or would they ever cheat?
    As impulsive as Milo can be (see "breaking stuff" above), I don't actually think he'd cheat. Maybe that's just because of the status of his relationship with Vic, but he doesn't strike me as much of a cheater. He'll do other crappy things, but cheating's not one of them. I don't think he's ever done it in the past, either. He doesn't really take a hardline "cheating is wrong" standpoint, you go ahead and do you, but he does think it's kinda nasty to do.

  • 12. How comfortable are they with their partner's body?
    LOL you ask me this as if you don't know that Milo will inappropriately lick everything on Vic's body if Vic asks. He knows every inch of him at this point and is inevitably sore in the morning.

  • 14. Post-sex habits? Weird habits?
    Post-coital phone checking. Absolutely. Sitting up while Vic rests his head in his lap, and they're both doing business on their phones — sending emails, going over data, checking the news, playing Candy Crush, who cares, I find this utterly adorable.

    Milo also likes to stretch out his wings if he's had them retracted, so please feel free to rub his back, kthx.

    I feel like Milo's kind of a detached cuddler? He lets Vic cuddle him but he's not overly clingy (hence the phone checking). He usually wants takeout or some leftovers from the fridge.

    He still doesn't like it when animals see him naked. Ever.

CAL BARTON
  • 01. Does your character believe in true love or soul mates? Love at first sight?
    Uh, sure?

    I mean, really, that's his answer. I think part of him subscribes to the romantic notion of love at first sight, and he feels like he's been in love with Caylie since he first saw her even though it took them years upon years upon years to be anything other than friends. He likes the idea of looking at a person and being like "THIS is the girl I'm gonna marry" because that's pretty cool.

    But he also knows that real life doesn't work out the way it does in the movies, and that things are messier than that, and sometimes perfect couples break up for weird reasons and never get back together. I think his family situation, growing up with parents that were never together and dated other people, helped shape the view that "true love" is more complicated than the idea of soulmates. I really don't think he literally believes in soulmates, that there's one person for every person and that's how Fate has decided it. That's also kind of sad, too, thinking that you're only ever going to be truly loved by one person.

GALE RICHARDS
  • 03. What are their general feelings about sex?
    What's not to like about sex? Sex is fun, it can be emotional, it can be life-affirming, but it can also be silly. It can get you things you want, if you use it the right way. It can also be used to hurt people beyond repair. Sex is a lot of different things depending on who you do it with and why you do it, so it's hard for him to have "general feelings" about it.

  • 11. How comfortable are they with their body?
    Pretty comfortable. I don't think Gale is particularly shy or nervous when it comes to showing off his body, and I don't think he has many problems with it. He's confident and comfortable (the fact that he's gorgeous helps with that), and he doesn't really look at himself in the mirror and think about anything that needs to change. It's not important. His body gives him what he wants and does what it needs to do, it doesn't have to look better.

  • 12. With their partner's body?
    Gale's completely okay with Dean. Completely. Dean has his fluffy tail and his furry ears, and Gale dotes on him like he's something extraordinary rather than thinking it's weird. It is weird, he's fully aware of that, but he happily embraces that.

  • 14. Post-sex habits? Weird habits?
    Gale's a little clingy. I think I've described him as a stray cat who keeps hanging around even though he won't come inside, who cares far more than he lets on and won't go away. That's Gale, when it comes to Dean. He has a kind of nonchalance about the post-sex afterglow, but watch him closely: he's devoted, he's clinging, he doesn't want to leave. He'll find excuses to stick around — which doesn't mean the same thing now that they live together, but still. He'll always find some kind of weird reason to stay that has nothing to do with Dean specifically, always make up some new excuse in order to avoid leaving.

Dean is a good cat owner. He really enjoys the clinginess, but acts like he barely notices in case it spooks him XD
