Victor loves Yuri Katsuki and he can tell you aaaaall about it by telling you all the things Yuri does well and also the ones he needs to work on and also look at these images of him he did so amazing at the GPF, he brought him to tears...!

Of course I have Victor in a complete AU game and he never met Yuri or Yuri's equivalent except in passing (someone please come be Yuri) so his story is more "anyway I fought in a war, my dog died, and I gave up and also died, now I'm resurrected 100 years later" it's all about figuring out wth is going on

note to self: research swearwords relevant to usir

I've gotta top level for him being drunk and flirty and also just eating and doing all the things to try and forget for a while that he's a. very dead, b. everyone he ever knew is dead minus those who are also resurrected, c. no one knows why they've been pulled out of death but clearly it can't be for Great Reasons

so yes romance isn't even vaguely on his mind, l a u g h s

aaaaaaannie in canon: lol

pointedly never acknowledges or possibly sees when bertolt is all !!! at her (easy enough not to, people can be blind to the things aimed at them)

rp-wise she's either in VR or Duplicity

VR she is in that place of not trusting how long she'll be there, not having many people she trusts anyway, not feeling free to talk about anything even if she wants to outside of Bertolt or Armin and that's Complicated on both counts

romance? sounds fake and for better adjusted people

they're so dumb in canon grips heart

it cracks me up

bertolt: you could totally seduce someone!!!
annie: ??? thank you???

even more so when they're like. 11/12 (that whole conversation was just heartbreaking on various levels though like wow kids)

uuuh Annie in Duplicity might actually see more of a point but also doesn't have any driving motivation, so she'll stick to practicality and picking partners without emotions past "I don't despise you" b/c it's necessary to get by

she barely has friends, she doesn't know how "real" this place is past accepting it's her current reality regardless, and has no idea if she's a. alive or b. alive past the next two years

Annie is just like:

LMAO YEAH

look she had feelings

feelings led to stupid decisions?

stupid decisions led to being in a crystal for four+ years

emotions????

nah they dumb

she's more or less fine with emotions if they don't have attachment issues involved

she can like you but damn if she realises she's actively fond of you, no thanks

historically she's like... dated one person in a game

and then got confessed to by someone else at the time and her thoughts were: wow you have bad taste and also why

she was okay dating who she was dating because he was an asshole, but cared for people and better things, and also knew her history (as far as any of us knew what to say at the time)

also he and his friends were all super loyal to each other

me: really annie, wow

some things like intelligence and loyalty are attractive and also being a better person than she is

Annie, please love yourself more

this is a good idea, how does she do that

they have books for that

(i really love when she starts having more care for herself and less acting as if there's no point in bothering because Shit Be Like That, and then you die)

lakjdsf birthday gift

"how to process ptsd, childhood abuse, and trauma, and learn to love yourself"

Annie starts collecting weird self help books like

lkasdfljksad HAHAHA HOW IS THAT SELF HELPFAS:LDK

(It is obvious plant so it is a parody, but Annie would own it anyway)

this one is absolutely real though

w..whasdf

i keep laughing alsdfj

she has a bookshelf

it's all books like these

"have you read any of them?"

"only the end so i know how they all went"

sex in the afterlife is given to both bert and marco

whistles

god please do this

... build your own coffin.................

kill your tall friend

(gets the steamiest romantic nicholas sparks book bert can find in retaliation)

(or some other super steamy romance book)

i wish she was trolly enough but that's past what she'd consider worth handing over when he isn't even dating
gets him a guide for "how to tell he's into me"

that book causes Fears

Buy that book and then put the book 'dealing with splinters' right next to it

gives it as a gift set

she is so thoughtful and caring

top words to describe her, always

she absolutely won't give you a Strange Look for saying so

Shigeo just wants kisses and cuddles Annie it's cool

she's surprisingly chill with that

but apparently he's a good young man who definitely does not deserve being here and tries his best

HE DOES TRY HIS BEST!!!

he's also a mad powerful psychic who she would like to keep in control of himself but you know

details ruururitdr8y

Duplicity weirdness has made this difficult on two occasions

it's... a sad but true fact of their environment

she's just like well. at least we're not at murdering each other. usually.

she is a pretty lady who is also kind of a big sister but not in a way that makes kissing weird life is confusing

WHEEZES though also: anyone considering Annie a good influence continues to make me smile

times im a little sad I'll never have castmates: anyone showing up and hearing that
