RUDOLFO PARRA
SFW APHABET
A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)
Rudy is a lovebug, but only in private. He is NOT ashamed of his love for his partner, but he only shares the true depths of his affections with them. He stays close to them if they're out together, maybe holding hands or linking pinkies, but otherwise will just be near them. In private, however, he is glued to them. He's holding their hips, kissing every inch of skin they're showing, pulling them into his lap as they walk by.
B = Best friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?)
Rodolfo has so often felt small, insignificant, looked over. His best friend would (does) make him feel important. They would value his opinion, go out of their way to listen to him. It makes him feel warm, and catches him off guard for a while.
C = Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)
In private Rudy loves to be close to his partner, having them rest their weight on them and pressing his face against them (bonus points if they play with his hair). Holding them like that fills him with love, he knows theyre safe and protected in his arms and it helps him relax.
D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)
Rudy loves the idea of a little oasis for him and his lover. He is hesitant though, he worries that living with them and being away for work might put them in some sort of danger. He would eventually, and it brings him more happiness and comfort than he dared to dream of before.
Rodolfo has a smaller family than some, but he has always gone out of his way to take care of them, and his grandparents. So he does more than his fair share of household chores when he's home. He says its to make up for his time away, but he just loves to take care of his lover. Providing them with good food and a clean home, letting them relax makes him feel so proud.
E = Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)
Rudy wouldn’t, he could never leave his lover except for one reason. Should their involvement with him put them in danger in any way he would break it off immediately, hiding his own tears and broken heart until he was away from them. He would break once he was alone again, and then try to scrub any trace of them from his life (and his heart) (unsuccessfully).
F = Fiance(e) (How do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)
It would take him a while, just like moving into together. Once he felt ready to though he would plan every detail meticulously and wait for the perfect moment. He wants to be surrounded by love when it happens, a large gathering with all their family. He's a little old fashioned, and would definitely ask any of his partners parental figures for their blessing first.
G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)
Rudy is tender, bordering on ticklish. He would never dream of hurting his partner, and so he touches and holds them with all the love he has in his heart. Emotionally he is more distant. Not intentionally, he just has a hard time trusting people with his vulnerability. He warms up eventually, but he needs his partners patience getting there.
H = Hugs (Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?)
Rodolfo hugs like he hasn't been hugged in years, arms holding his lover so tight it’s a little hard to breath. He wraps his arms tight around them, hands pressed their back and his face in their neck or hair. His hugs are never shorter than three deep breaths, holding the two of them together for as long as he can (Someone please hug him).
I = I love you (How fast do they say the L-word?)
Shy, nervous Rodolfo would drag his feet. He would deny it, try to convince himself it was just a crush, he just enjoyed their company. But he knew deep down. Alejandro would tease him about it, ducking as Rudy threw the nearest non-lethal object at him. His partner would beat him to the punch, telling him one evening as they sat watching the stars. He would look to them and parrot them, feeling a little silly over how nervous he felt before about saying it. He loved them, end of story.
J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?)
Rudy is not a jealous man by any stretch of the imagination. Once he and his partner make their relationship official they have his complete trust. Unless they look to him for help he lets them handle anyone who approaches them. Honestly it makes him laugh, knowing that his lover will always choose him over them.
K = Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)
Most of Rudy's kisses are sweet, nearly chaste, they're just another way for him to show his love to his partner. Sometimes he will take a moment to deepen them, indulging in their lips until he feels drunk on them. He loves to kiss his partners hands, the tip of each finger, over the knuckles, on the palms. Kisses on his shoulders melt him, sending shivers down his back.
L = Little ones (How are they around children?)
Rudy loves kids. He never had younger siblings or cousins, so sometimes he feels a little overwhelmed but his is the presence kids seek out when play is done, usually ending up trapped at the end of parties with two or more kids draped over him, asleep. He doesn’t particularly want kinds of his own, however.
M = Morning (How are mornings spent with them?)
Rudy wants to keep to his routine, he finds peace in it. So his mornings are almost always the same. He gets up, showers, has his coffee and checks the news before a small breakfast and then the day begins. It changes a little after he and his partner moves in together, he makes more time for everything so he can share every moment of peace with them.
N = Night (How are nights spent with them?)
In a word, relaxing. Rodolfo loves to eat out or order in at night, less cleaning up to do before bed. He loves spending them cuddled up and watching competition shows, always engaged with the drama of it all. He loves going to bed with his partner early, just laying together and talking until they're ready to sleep.
O = Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)
Rudy is slow to open up, slow to do so many things. He wants to be sure, is all, to be sure he isnt making a fool of himself. But once he's ready he will happily share things about his past, talking about and eventually introducing his partner to his family.
P = Patience (How easily angered are they?)
Rudy doesn’t like being angry, he defaults to sadness. He sees him being angry as a failure to treat situations maturely. Even when he is reasonably upset he tries to take things slow, finding the right words and not losing himself in the alure of anger.
Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)
Rodolfo remembers so much. He remembers the first time the two of they met, he remembers the first time they reach for his hand and the way his heart pounded. He tries to keep every precious shared moment safely in his head. Occasionally something slips, but he tries so hard.
R = Remember (What is their favorite moment in your relationship?)
Their first anniversary. Rudy had spent weeks preparing a romantic picnic with all of his lovers favorite things. And then the morning of it began to rain, a storm lasting all day. He was crushed, and apologized profusely to his partner. They just laughed and kissed him, spreading the blanket on the floor of the living room of their home, having the picnic and watching the rain. They laughed so hard and spent the whole day curled up together.
S = Security (How protective are they? How would they protect you? How would they like to be protected?)
Rudy is very protective. With his job being what it is, and the proximity of Mexico's most deadly cartels he is always wary, overcautious. Every time he and his lover goes out his head is on a swivel looking for potential danger. He would never forgive himself if something happened to them, and he wouldn’t hesitate to turn deadly should a single threat arose.
T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)
Rudy's gestures are small and private, but so heartfelt his lover couldn’t ask for anything more. He always has gifts that are touching and meaningful at a moments notice (he keeps a list of potential gifts in his phone). He wants every special occasion to be memorable, and he plans for them all well in advance.
U = Ugly (What would be some bad habits of theirs?)
Rodolfo's protective nature can feel smothering at times, and may need to be reigned in. He also chews in anything in his hand; pencils, pens, his own fingers are not safe. They all have teeth marks on them, especially after a stressful day.
V = Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)
As long as he's clean Rudy doesn’t give much thought to it. On special occasions he will take some time before a mirror to try and tame his hair, but usually he just runs his hands though it until its somewhat manageable. If his lover wishes, he will happily submit to a spa day, or add some mutual self care into his evenings home.
W = Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you?)
Long separations from his partner are difficult for Rudy. Losing all his routine and comfort at once sets him on edge. He feels like a shell of a man, and he finds himself zoning out a lot.
X = Xtra (A random headcanon for them.)
Rudy sleep talks. He vehemently denies it, but he says the funniest and sweetest things. His lover knew he loved her for nearly a month before he actually said it because he kept telling them in his sleep. He also says the most ridiculous things, and will occasionally sing (badly).
Y = Yuck (What are some things they wouldn’t like, either in general or in a partner?)
Rodolfo dislikes people who complain incessantly, it grates on him. He also hates bananas, the texture makes his skin crawl.
Z = Zzz (What is a sleep habits of theirs?)
Rudy is a light sleeper, always alert. He doesn’t really like to cuddle when he sleeps, as he tends to overheat. But he will still loves to be close, listening to them breathing as he drifts off to sleep.
