Work Text:
We were born with too much love in our heart that it sometimes spills out without we even realised it.
When we noticed it, we couldn't get it back inside and so we gave it to others, manifesting into all sort of form that the people now labelled it as 'the language of love'.
Words of Affirmation. Acts of Service. Physical Touch. Quality Times. Giving Gifts.
These were the common love languages that had been known throughout the world and well, even across galaxies perhaps.
And just like the rest of the creatures that lived in this vast galaxies, Boboiboy and his friends also had their own love language to show.
Yaya, with her words of affirmation, affirming her friends doubts, affirming their own feelings when they themselves couldn't do it.
She was the very definition of 'word of affirmation'.
Then, there's Ying who had 'quality times' as her love language.
Being a time manipulator, she appreciated it more than ever as every minutes spends, as every seconds wasted were things that she can never got back again.
It was why when Boboiboy again broke his promise on the time that they had promised to spend together, she was the most furious of them all.
Good thing Boboiboy learned his lessons.
After that, there was Gopal who had physical touch as his love language.
Casual shoulder pat. Affectionate headlock. Warm hug.
These were his usual way to show his love to his friends and loved ones. Although it couldn't be applied to all of them because he respected his females friends boundary and restrictions because of religion.
But that's fine, his secondary love language was spending quality time together after all.
After that, we have Fang.
At first, they thought that he didn't have any love language with the way he act with others and being a loner to boot when they first met and knew him.
But that was impossible, even Adudu, their childhood frenemies had his own love language back when they were friend with him and even when they weren't friend with him anymore, he still wielded the same love language as back then, which was act of service.
Honestly though, Fang was the hardest one for them to figure out. Even when they were friends, he was still a little distant with them back then.
It was not until Captain Kaizo came and took Fang and their powerwatches away that it became clear what his love language all along.
Act of service.
After that realisation hit, they began to see how each of his actions contained how he showed his love to them.
It was why when Fang 'betrayed' them to follow Kira'na, Boboiboy and the rest of them knew that, at the back of their mind, that he never really betrayed them even when they showed the opposite reactions of it.
Then, not to forget our latest addition to the Kokotaim gang, Qually, who shared the same love language as Fang.
He loved cooking for them, loved the way they really appreciated his food by eating all of it without leaving anything behind and of course the praises that followed right after it.
He didn't cook it for praises but he didn't mind being given one because to him, his loved ones with a full stomach is better than an empty one.
And finally, we arrived at our beloved protagonist, Boboiboy.
He was... a little complicated but at the same time, easier to tell than Fang.
Originally, his love language was spending quality times with his loved ones but when his powers came to equations...this was where it began to get complicated.
You see, being a hero with the power of elementals and can also split to 7 different individuals and personalities means that each of them will have very different love language from eachother.
Halilintar with his act of service. Quiet but always prepared to protect all of them, shielding them with his swords and his own body so that his loved ones won't suffered anymore wounds than necessary.
Next, there were Taufan and Duri with physical touch as their love language. They never restrained themselves when they hugged or touch their loved ones, it was always filled with love.
Then, we have Gempa with words of affirmation as his love language. He never hesitated when giving praises or kind words to his loved ones, because to him, for as long as he can say it to them while alive than he would say it as many times as he can. Hundreds upon thousands of love words that he would never got tired to say to the last of his breath.
After that, we have Blaze and Ais who shared the same love language which were quality times. Blaze will always without failed asked his friends and fellow elementals to play with him. Ais himself will be sitting close to them as he was never far off from his loved ones, always there and present even if he was asleep.
Finally, we have Solar who had giving gifts as his love language. In his earlier days of manifestation, he was a little shy and fumbling when interacting with the others and so the only way he show his love is by giving them gifts or trinkets that he made or bought by himself. Even when he finally got comfortable enough with them, his love language never change.
To love and to be loved.
That was something that all of us wanted in our lives.
Each of us, had our own way to express our loves. There's never a right or wrong way to love others. So go on, loves your loved ones as how you wanted to loves them.
With words, with actions, with touches, with times spent and with gifts given.
Go on, do it.
So that one day, you'll never regret it for the rest of your life.
