Stolen from veritas_st to distract me from the storm that is scaring the crap outta me.

Give me a pairing and I will tell you:

who is the big spoon/little spoon
what is their favorite non-sexual activity
who uses all the hot water in the morning
what they order from take out
what is the most trivial thing they fight over
who does most of the cleaning
what has a season pass in their DVR
who controls the netflix queue
who calls up the super/landlord when the heat’s not working
who steals the blankets
who leaves their stuff around
who remembers to buy the milk
who remembers anniversaries

If you're lucky I might write a drabble too.

LOVE that pairing, sorry it is so long since I replied
who is the big spoon/little spoon Erik is the big spoon, Charles is a snuggler, so much so that Erik now finds it hard to sleep alone without long limb tangled amongst his own and the comforting sound of Charles soft breathing.
what is their favorite non-sexual activity Charles likes reading, not just academic books, thrillers, mysteries, trashy novels, Erik has never felt more comfortable and loved than on the nights he spends, with Charles leaning against him, reading a book and bugging Erik every two seconds to read his favourite part.
who uses all the hot water in the morning Erik every time, Charles prefers staying in bed, curled up in a warm duvet that smells like Erik, after he usually needs a cold shower anyway.
what they order from take out Pizza, despite his outward appearance Charles loves nothing more than cheezy pizza loaded with chicken and peppers, whenever Erik complains he would like something different Charles simply smiles, taps his head and says "no you wouldn't"
what is the most trivial thing they fight over they don't, which is almost worse, because when they fight it always matters, it is always over the life changing events, differing beliefs, differing life experiences making them such totally different creatures. Since the last big disagreement that left Charles bleeding on a beach and Erik feeling like his heart had stopped they didn't get enough time to fight, every moment they grabbed was spent just trying to make that world disappear.
who does most of the cleaning the cleaner :P
what has a season pass in their DVR way before their time but it would have been Erik, his love of all things historical would have him glued to the set
who controls the netflix queue Whereas Charles would have watched all the cheest movies they could handle
who calls up the super/landlord when the heat’s not working Erik used to complain about the size of Charles house, the draughts and noises, but he had loved it, Charles hated the house, every dark corner the reminder of a lonely childhood, the arrival of Erik and the kids had changed that, brought with them the relief he had only experienced once before, when Raven entered his life. Without his lover and his sister in residence the house had started creeping towards darkness again, not even the arrival of more kids could stop Charles feeling cold anymore.
who steals the blankets Erik, he doesn't take even the smallest of luxuries for granted which was why in the night he would wrap the blankets round them both like a cocoon, savour a chocolate bar like a delicacy and stare at Charles sometimes as if he was a miracle, a mirage that the wrong word would steal away.
who leaves their stuff around Neither both are tidy to the point of obsession, except when they have sex, when spending all day with just heated glances and the briefest touches gets too much and they tear at each clothes dumped and forgotten in a pile as they lose themselves in soft skin and silken sinew. Erik always complains about the mess in the morning.
who remembers to buy the milk the maid :P
who remembers anniversaries Every year they meet, it used to be three or four times a year, the itching to touch to see to feel would get too much, but their lives had gotten busy, Charles tied up with his saviour complex, Erik with his determination to weed out the weak and bring home the planet to those who truly deserved it. But even as time grew short, and they grew older, hair turning grey, or in Charles case disappearing altogether, they still made time for this, every year on the anniversary of their parting, they would meet, chat, pass the time with fond remembrances over good wine before losing themselves in hot kisses and stolen touches, one day a year they would lock the rest of the world out and just be Charles and Erik again. They never forget the day, in fact although they would never admit it, each of them counts down the other 360 odd days like a penance, waiting for the chance to come home.

I had totally forgot about this. So what a lovely surprise!

Without his lover and his sister in residence the house had started creeping towards darkness again, not even the arrival of more kids could stop Charles feeling cold anymore.
