missmara13Just saw this on ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
pairatime's journal, and I figured I'd play...
Gimme a pairing(or more) and I'll answer the questions the following questions about them...
WHO COOKS NORMALLY?:
HOW OFTEN DO THEY FIGHT?:
WHAT DO THEY DO WHEN THEY’RE AWAY FROM EACH OTHER?:
NICKNAMES FOR EACH OTHER?:
WHO IS MORE LIKELY TO PAY FOR DINNER?:
WHO STEALS THE COVERS AT NIGHT?:
WHAT WOULD THEY GET EACH OTHER FOR GIFTS?:
WHO KISSED WHO FIRST?:
WHO MADE THE FIRST MOVE?:
WHO REMEMBERS THINGS?:
WHO STARTED THE RELATIONSHIP?:
WHO CUSSES MORE?:
WHAT WOULD THEY DO IF THE OTHER ONE WAS HURT?:
If it's a couple I haven't written before, then I may or may not give the answers and I reserve the right to tell you I have no interest in that couple and give answers. Saying this up front because in the past I've had anons, and once a user with an account PMing me multiple times, refuse to take "I have no interest" for an answer and grouch at me for refusing to write something for them... it's obnoxious and I'm hoping to prevent the grouching part by being blunt ahead of time. So, only guaranteed answers are for couples I've written before.

Date: 2012-08-29 06:36 pm (UTC)WHO COOKS NORMALLY?: About equal. Puck is surprisingly good at baking, though, so when it comes to cakes and cookies? He's head chef.
HOW OFTEN DO THEY FIGHT?: About once a week about little things, and sometimes not so little. Summer does not put up with Puck's occasional misogynistic comments, and Puck gets annoyed when Summer sulks about him talking to Quinn on the phone because she feels little jealous of their bond.
WHAT DO THEY DO WHEN THEY’RE AWAY FROM EACH OTHER?: If one or the other is going out of town, then Princess Sparkle stays with Puck and Puckzilla stays with Summer.
NICKNAMES FOR EACH OTHER?: Summer calls him 'Puckerman' of course, since last name's are her favorite nicknames, but she also calls him 'Pucky' sometimes to tease him. Puck sometimes calls her 'Scary Girl: the world's most terrifying superhero'.
WHO IS MORE LIKELY TO PAY FOR DINNER?: They alternate, with who's paying as the one picking where they eat. That way Puck doesn't go broke paying for an expensive place Summer wanted to eat at, but she can introduce him to the joys of gourmet.
WHO STEALS THE COVERS AT NIGHT?: Puck. But Summer handles it by just snuggling closer to him.
WHAT WOULD THEY GET EACH OTHER FOR GIFTS?: Puck gets Summer a copy of 'Night Of The Lepus' (1972 horror movie about mutated carnivorous, killer rabbits). Summer gets Puck a book she found about proper mohawk maintenance, because the floppy 'hawk just doesn't cut it... lol... they like giving teasing gifts, but at the same time, Puck got Summer a little silver 'lucky rabbit's foot charm' so she didn't have to harm animals to have one, and Summer got Puck a new guitar when his old one broke.
WHO KISSED WHO FIRST?: It was a mutual thing, since he had to lean down, she had just enough time to stretch up.
WHO MADE THE FIRST MOVE?: Puck, with some deliberately bad pick-up lines to make her laugh.
WHO REMEMBERS THINGS?: Surprisingly, Puck is better at remembering anniversaries and birthdays. He even remembers the birthdays or Summer's friends better than she does, and he always buys the flowers for Summer to take to Marissa's grave on the anniversary of her death.
WHO STARTED THE RELATIONSHIP?: it would have been Puck, but he let Summer talk first and she asked him out.
WHO CUSSES MORE?: Puck. Definitely. Although he's good at not doing it around their kids or the kids of family members, while Summer is more likely to slip then.
WHAT WOULD THEY DO IF THE OTHER ONE WAS HURT?: Depends on how they were hurt. If it was an accident like a fall, Summer would pace while waiting for news, and Puck would sit and hold her hand. If someone else was responsible for it, they'd both be wanting to bust some heads.

Date: 2012-08-29 06:36 pm (UTC)Ryan/Summer
WHO COOKS NORMALLY?: Ryan.
HOW OFTEN DO THEY FIGHT?: Not very often, and when they do it's usually more out of worry. Like if Ryan got home late from overseeing a construction site, Summer might be pissed that he didn't call. Or if Summer went to an enviromental protest where violence broke out, Ryan might be mad that she didn't leave before then.
WHAT DO THEY DO WHEN THEY’RE AWAY FROM EACH OTHER?: Call each evening and talk about their days.
NICKNAMES FOR EACH OTHER?: Summer calls him 'Atwood' and 'Chino', and when she's trying to get him to agree to something 'Sweetie' is brought out. Ryan calls her 'Sum' and 'Roberts' most of the time, but occasionally 'Hon'.
WHO IS MORE LIKELY TO PAY FOR DINNER?: During the early part of their relationship, they pretty much go dutch, each paying for their own food. But later on they alternate, and after getting married it's pretty much 'our money', so it doesn't matter who's card they use.
WHO STEALS THE COVERS AT NIGHT?: Summer. Ryan has learned to always have an extra blanket folded at the foot of the bed.
WHAT WOULD THEY GET EACH OTHER FOR GIFTS?: Summer gets Ryan photo essay books of interesting architecture from all over the world, while Ryan gets her things like Yellow Roses (since they started as friends) or sometimes silly thinks like accessories for Princess Sparkle. The best gift he ever gave her can never be beat, though. He built her dream house for them to live in.
WHO KISSED WHO FIRST?: Summer kissed Ryan, who was a little shocked.
WHO MADE THE FIRST MOVE?: Summer with the kiss above. Although Ryan later asked her out.
WHO REMEMBERS THINGS?: Ryan. But that's in part because he writes the important stuff down in the calendar as soon as possible. So every December 26th, he sits down with a new calendar and marks all the important dates for the coming year, birthdays, anniversaries, and when new stuff, like school recitals or Newport parties, come up he adds them immediately.
WHO STARTED THE RELATIONSHIP?: Summer started them down the road by kissing Ryan, but he asked her out first, so I'd say mutual.
WHO CUSSES MORE?: Neither cusses very much, but probably Ryan because he's been known to tear a lazy worker on a job site a new one with some... colorful... language.
WHAT WOULD THEY DO IF THE OTHER ONE WAS HURT?: They'd both basically agree to be the other's personal servant during recovery, getting them fresh water, food, magazines, the tv remote, whatever they needed/wanted.

Ryan Atwood and Rory Gilmore
Ryan Atwood and Brooke Davis
no subject
Date: 2012-08-29 06:57 pm (UTC)WHO COOKS NORMALLY?: Between the two of them, Ryan. But Lorelai brings home pre-made stuff from Sookie so often that Ryan doesn't get much of a chance.
HOW OFTEN DO THEY FIGHT?: Surprisingly, not often. Ryan sometimes gets annoyed with Lorelai's more carefree personality, and Lorelai sometimes thing Ryan's being a stick in the mud, but they don't really fight much, just occasionally bicker.
WHAT DO THEY DO WHEN THEY’RE AWAY FROM EACH OTHER?: Lorelai calls Ryan and leaves him really inappropriate phone messages (he once had his phone on speaker in front of a client when one of the messages played). Ryan calls back and tells her not to do that, but he always ends his calls with 'I love you'.
NICKNAMES FOR EACH OTHER?: Lorelai calls Ryan 'sweetie', 'honey', 'dearest', and other terms of endearment just because it annoys, but amuses, him. Ryan doesn't use nicknames much, but he does occasionally call her 'babe'.
WHO IS MORE LIKELY TO PAY FOR DINNER?: Neither, because Ryan either cooks or Lorelai brings home leftovers from the Inn. When they get something from Luke's Diner, Lorelai pays because Ryan doesn't like going in and dealing with Miss Patty and the other gossips in close quarters with no easy escape.
WHO STEALS THE COVERS AT NIGHT?: Lorelai, but Ryan just steals half back because if he gets another blanket she'll steal it to. She's kind of amazing with that.
WHAT WOULD THEY GET EACH OTHER FOR GIFTS?: Lorelai gets Ryan all manner of silly ridiculous gifts (like pens that you turn them to write and the woman on them gets naked) but for Birthdays, anniversaries, and Christmas there's always one thoughtful gift (A watch with their wedding date on it for their anniversary, a kindle filled with all his favorite books for Christmas, so he can read while traveling for work). Ryan gets her silly gifts because they make her happy, but also get her nice jewelery, or adds to her DVD collection (he sometimes does the latter randomly without telling her, so she always looks for new additions before she buys anything)
WHO KISSED WHO FIRST?: Neither remembers because they were drunk, but Lorelai kissed Ryan.
WHO MADE THE FIRST MOVE?: Ryan started the flirting.
WHO REMEMBERS THINGS?: Ryan. He writes the important things down on a calendar, birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, town events, work events, everything gets written down and he'll drop it into conversation a few days before, as a reminder to Lorelai.
WHO STARTED THE RELATIONSHIP?: The Elvis impersonator who married them one drunk night in Vegas. But they decided together to continue the marriage until they decided what they thought of eachother.
WHO CUSSES MORE?: Lorelai, though she does it by using the msot ridiculous 'clean' versions of swear words. Think Samuel L. Jackson in the 'clean' version of 'Snakes on a Plane' ("I'm tired of these Monkey-Fighting snakes on this Monday-to-Friday plane!")
WHAT WOULD THEY DO IF THE OTHER ONE WAS HURT?: Lorelai would freak out and not handle it well, probably overreact. Ryan would be calmer, at least until any danger was past, and then go find somewhere quiet and alone to break down once he knew she was okay.

Date: 2012-08-29 07:10 pm (UTC)Ryan/Brooke
WHO COOKS NORMALLY?: Ryan. It's not that Brooke's a bad cook, but she gets distracted in the middle and... that never works out.
HOW OFTEN DO THEY FIGHT?: Not often, but when they do it involves a lot of yelling and sometimes Brooke throwing a pillow at Ryan's head.
WHAT DO THEY DO WHEN THEY’RE AWAY FROM EACH OTHER?: Call and talk about their days, and then phone sex.
NICKNAMES FOR EACH OTHER?: Brooke calls Ryan 'Hot Boy' a lot. Ryan doesn't use many nicknames, but he does call her 'Penelope' (her middle name) sometimes as a teasing nickname.
WHO IS MORE LIKELY TO PAY FOR DINNER?: Ryan, mostly because if they're out to eat it's to give him a break from cooking dinner. But Brooke will pay if she's picking something up on the way home.
WHO STEALS THE COVERS AT NIGHT?: Neither. They tend to sleep cuddled up close together.
WHAT WOULD THEY GET EACH OTHER FOR GIFTS?: Brooke gets Ryan architecture and art books, while Ryan gets her sketch pads and drawing supplies, as well as interesting fabric swatches. There's also the usual watches and jewelry... the necklace Brooke cherishes the most is one he got that has their birthstones on it, and can be added to with each child they have, biological and adopted.
WHO KISSED WHO FIRST?: Brooke kissed Ryan first, because she wanted to make an ex-jealous.
WHO MADE THE FIRST MOVE?: Ryan asked Brooke out to coffee (which led to the above kiss)
WHO REMEMBERS THINGS?: They're both pretty good at remembering. Ryan writes things down in the calendar, and Brooke checks it and puts reminders on the fridge.
WHO STARTED THE RELATIONSHIP?: Pretty much mutual, but Brooke is the one that asked Ryan out on an official date after the coffee and kiss.
WHO CUSSES MORE?: About the same. But both are really good at not cussing in front of their kids.
WHAT WOULD THEY DO IF THE OTHER ONE WAS HURT?: Worry, but be strong until they could be upset in private.

Date: 2012-08-29 07:20 pm (UTC)WHO COOKS NORMALLY?: Ryan, but only if he gets something started before Chuck orders out.
HOW OFTEN DO THEY FIGHT?: Not often, and usually it's about Chuck being an ass (which he admits he is) and Ryan not taking care of himself as well as he should (which he admits to doing), so they don't last long.
WHAT DO THEY DO WHEN THEY’RE AWAY FROM EACH OTHER?: Ryan has someone, usually Dan or Blair, 'spy' on Chuck to make sure he isn't getting in trouble (though really he trusts Chuck, he just does it as a joke). Chuck makes sure Ryan gets all the latest Gossip Girl tweets so he doesn't feel left out of the loop.
NICKNAMES FOR EACH OTHER?: None really. Ryan does occasionally call him 'Chucky' to annoy him, but other than that, none.
WHO IS MORE LIKELY TO PAY FOR DINNER?: Chuck, no matter how much Ryan protests.
WHO STEALS THE COVERS AT NIGHT?: Chuck likes to sleep with an arm and a leg on top of Ryan, so covers aren't an issue.
WHAT WOULD THEY GET EACH OTHER FOR GIFTS?: Chuck buys Ryan a new laptop every year, even if Ryan says he doesn't need one, and Ryan gets Chuck books that talk about spending wisely. But watches often get exchanged, and one year Chuck bought Ryan a piece of land in the Hamptons to design and build a dream vacation house on.
WHO KISSED WHO FIRST?: Chuck kissed Ryan, and it was something of a sneak attack.
WHO MADE THE FIRST MOVE?: Chuck, by kissing a drunk Ryan.
WHO REMEMBERS THINGS?: They're both pretty good at remembering things, except that Ryan constantly has to remind Chuck to be nice.
WHO STARTED THE RELATIONSHIP?: Ryan by deciding he didn't care what anyone else thought about Chuck, he liked him.
WHO CUSSES MORE?: Chuck, although it's mostly dirty talk in bed (or whispered in Ryan's ear at a party)
WHAT WOULD THEY DO IF THE OTHER ONE WAS HURT?: Chuck would initially fall apart (like he did at the hospital after Serena's car crash a few seasons ago), but then he'd be on the warpath against whoever was responsible. Ryan would be a steady presence when with Chuck or other family/friends, then fall apart in private late, and then starting looking into who was responsible and how to make sure justice was served.

Date: 2012-08-29 07:37 pm (UTC)WHO COOKS NORMALLY?: About 50/50. Julie's more likely to cook the more basic stuff, while Ryan likes trying out more difficult recipes.
HOW OFTEN DO THEY FIGHT?: Not often. Yelling freaks Ryan out, so they usually talk out issues before they hit the 'fight' stage of things.
WHAT DO THEY DO WHEN THEY’RE AWAY FROM EACH OTHER?: They aren't away from each other for longer than a work day often, but when they are they takes turns calling in the evenings.
NICKNAMES FOR EACH OTHER?: They don't really have any.
WHO IS MORE LIKELY TO PAY FOR DINNER?: They usually eat in, but when they eat out or get take-out Julie usually pays, because money is a little bit tighter for Ryan.
WHO STEALS THE COVERS AT NIGHT?: Julie, but Ryan doesn't mind too much.
WHAT WOULD THEY GET EACH OTHER FOR GIFTS?: Early in their relationship, when both are seriously struggling financially, they didn't really 'do' gifts for each other, but once they both have better jobs and are living together, Ryan gets Julie cheap jewelry that can pass for more expensive stuff, promising to buy her the real deal someday. Julie buys Ryan good ties because he's got the skills, he just needs the look to get better and better jobs.
WHO KISSED WHO FIRST?: Ryan kissed Julie.
WHO MADE THE FIRST MOVE?: Julie by flirting with Ryan while he fixed a loose step on her trailer.
WHO REMEMBERS THINGS?: Ryan males notes of things, and Julie looks through the notes to put up reminders on the fridge.
WHO STARTED THE RELATIONSHIP?: Mutual. They were both lonely and wanted a little affection and reached out to each other. It was Ryan who insisted that he cared more about Julie than about what anyone else (like the Cohens) thought of their relationship.
WHO CUSSES MORE?: About equal. Julie lets her inner Riverside girl out more around Ryan.
WHAT WOULD THEY DO IF THE OTHER ONE WAS HURT?: Julie would joke about being his private nurse and possible try to get a hold of a 'sexy nurse' costume just to cheer him up. Ryan would make sure she was comfortable, and try to reassure Kaitlin that Julie would be fine.
Ryan/Anna is a little harder, so for now I'm gonna skip it, but I may come back and do them later.

no subject
Date: 2012-08-30 01:57 am (UTC)HOW OFTEN DO THEY FIGHT?: Surprisingly, not much. And when they do, they either yell for a few minutes and get it out, or they decide to each go for a walk and calm down before coming back and talking things out.
WHAT DO THEY DO WHEN THEY’RE AWAY FROM EACH OTHER?: They focus on their work to avoid feeling lonely.
NICKNAMES FOR EACH OTHER?: Ryan does occasionally call Jess 'Jackass', if that counts... otherwise none.
WHO IS MORE LIKELY TO PAY FOR DINNER?: They alternate.
WHO STEALS THE COVERS AT NIGHT?: Neither. if anything, Jess kicks the covers off.
WHAT WOULD THEY GET EACH OTHER FOR GIFTS?: Ryan hunts down first editions of books Jess likes. Jess finds books Ryan hasn't read, but would probably like.
WHO KISSED WHO FIRST?: Ryan kissed Jess.
WHO MADE THE FIRST MOVE?: Jess came on to Ryan at a frat party they were both drug to by roommates.
WHO REMEMBERS THINGS?: They both do. Ryan writes the important things down, while Jess remembers them on his own.
WHO STARTED THE RELATIONSHIP?: Mutual after both realized their attraction following a one night stand. But Ryan's the one who actually asked Jess out.
WHO CUSSES MORE?: Jess, definitely. But Ryan has learned to anticipate it, and if a little kid is around, he covers Jess mouth with his hand before the swears come out. Jess pretends to be annoyed, but actually kind of likes that Ryan knows him that well.
WHAT WOULD THEY DO IF THE OTHER ONE WAS HURT?: Ryan masks his worry by scolding Jess for getting hurt. Jess freaks out and gets protective and hovering... or freaks out and flees town to escape his worry... it's a toss up.

Date: 2012-08-30 03:59 am (UTC)HOW OFTEN DO THEY FIGHT?: Fairly often, with Ryan thinking Damon's an amoral jackass, and Damon thinking Ryan is too considerate of others.
WHAT DO THEY DO WHEN THEY’RE AWAY FROM EACH OTHER?: Ryan leaves Damon voice mails reminding him not to kill anyone. Damon leaves Ryan voice mails talking about how he's thinking of snacking on some preschoolers(although he's joking).
NICKNAMES FOR EACH OTHER?: None... unless you count Damon occasionally calling Ryan his 'favorite after dinner treat'.
WHO IS MORE LIKELY TO PAY FOR DINNER?: They don't really go out to eat much...
WHO STEALS THE COVERS AT NIGHT?: Damon does just so Ryan will move closer to him in his sleep.
WHAT WOULD THEY GET EACH OTHER FOR GIFTS?: Ryan hunts down history books that mention Damon, even if it's in passing, because he knows his boyfriend is a little bit of an egotist. Damon gets Ryan all manner of vervain infused items so he remains protected from others. And he has hidden away a spelled ring so if Ryan ever becomes a vampire, he has one waiting for him.
WHO KISSED WHO FIRST?: Damon kissed Ryan.
WHO MADE THE FIRST MOVE?: Damon.
WHO REMEMBERS THINGS?: When it comes to thngs like birthdays, Ryan remembers. When it comes to their relationship, Damon remembers every detail (including the color of the shirt Ryan was wearing when they first met)
WHO STARTED THE RELATIONSHIP?: Ryan by refusing to let Damon just walk away.
WHO CUSSES MORE?: Ryan... but Damon's more creative when he does, having had so much longer to practice...
WHAT WOULD THEY DO IF THE OTHER ONE WAS HURT?: Ryan would volunteer some of his blood to help Damon regain strength. Damon would give Ryan some vampire blood to help him recover quicker, then hunt down and kill, possibly after torturing, anyone responsible for Ryan getting hurt.
Do you have any idea how many times I started to write 'Demon' instead of 'Damon'? Try every single time I typed his name... lol
