🐍🐕 for Arcade?? :D
Yes! 😁 We love our doctor man <3
A) Attention. How much attention do they want in the relationship?
Arcade generally tries to be more low-key, but... When it comes to his romantic relationships, he really does like having the attention of his partner to himself most of the time.
Still, he tends to be more introverted overall, and he'll probably complain if you're all over him, but deep down you can tell the way he really does have a fondness for you fawning over him. Even as he rolls his eyes and sighs at you, he's still got a little telling smile playing at his lips.
Also, he's funny. Someone has to be around to listen to his clever jokes and creative complaining, so you'd better stick within listening distance. For your own sake, really.
R) Reunion. How do they react after being apart from their s/o? How do they cope when they’re away?
Arcade tries not to let it bother him too much. He'll dive back into his work, as fruitless as he thinks it will be, and just keep himself busy while you're away. If anything, the doctor is just unused to having no one around to listen to him now, so he'll talk a bit to himself as he works, often turning to give you a glance, even when he knows you're gone. It's just like an instinct now.
When you return to him, he'll be nonchalant at first, probably saying something cheeky, like "Oh? You again?" or another choice phrase like it. But that night you won't be able to shake him from you. Arcade will have a hand on you the remainder of the day and into the night, resting it on your leg as you sit together, or stroking his fingers distractedly over your arm; and when bedtime comes, he'll be wrapped around you or hauling your arms around him well before either of you are able to fall asleep.
C) Cuddle. Do they like to cuddle and show affection? How?
Again, Arcade tends to grumble about it, but he doesn't really mean it. Really, he's a big fan of idle cuddling with you. One leg thrown over yours, or a head against his shoulder, half-sitting against you, half on you. Those are his favorites. PDA will get you an eyeroll, but he doesn't mind that as much as he lets on either. Really, the doctor is a softie with a cynic's facial expressions.
A) -- B) Baby. Do they want a family? Why/why not?
Eh, it's not really for him, honestly. He's happy with a partner, and families just get... complicated.
Kids do seem to really take to him though, oddly enough. Any baby or toddler in your vicinity has it's eyes on the tall doctor and is already making grabby hands at him as soon as you notice their presence. Arcade usually makes a face at them, like they might be infected with something, but ultimately they always manage to pull a small smile from him. So who knows? If things change in a few years, if it ends up happening for him, Arcade would undoubtedly be able to rally.
D) Dates. What are dates with them like? What do they like to do?
Arcade likes to take date nights in more than anything. Being only with you, maybe going out for food and bringing it back to the Lucky 38, reading over something together, listening to the radio, chatting and kissing and snuggling without anyone to bother you. That's just... perfect.
Beyond that, if you take Arcade out somewhere nice, he may not always voice it right away, in fact, he'll probably complain, but he'll appreciate it. A picnic beneath one of the remaining trees in the Mojave, a dinner out on the Strip, maybe even playing darts at the saloon in Goodsprings... those don't sound too bad, he supposes.
E) Equal. Do they prefer to be more dominant or submissive in the relationship?
He likes his voice to be heard, so for most big relationship-type decisions, it's pretty equal between you two. But overall... (especially in sexual contexts) he's submissive for sure. 😏
