Honestly the funniest thing about TDP to me is that Rayla for some reason always thinks Callum isn't 100% ride-or-die with her on any given situation. Seriously, she could decide she's jumping off a cliff and he'd do it too--oh wait.
I get that half of it is 'protecting' him but like. Girl he has been ready to die and kill for you since the first snake chain incident. It has not lightened up since. In fact its gotten worse. She's his special little guy and if anything happens to her he will kill everyone in the room and then himself. She physically cannot ever sacrifice herself for anyone because Callum WILL be following her straight into the afterlife in no less than a minute. I'm fully convinced he can and would go even further than Claudia and he'd barely have to think on it for five seconds before shrugging like "damn this sucks, can't believe I have to turn evil" "you literally don't have to--" "no I'm gonna"
And honestly I think that's peak teenagers first girlfriend behavior.

Sonia and Komaeda getting along well enough to room together is so good honestly. Even if its mostly bc she takes no shit, Komaeda was still like the only person to stand up for her when Teruteru was trying to get frisky about her naiveté in the prologue/ch1.
I kind of suspect she was acting more unknowing than she really was then, to suit her role as a princess, but he had no way of knowing that then. Plus, if she was aware then, it might be easier for her to recognize the side of him that isn't all hope n murder? Since outside of the killing game he's pretty polite (if self effacing) and generally not down for creepy behavior.
If you've got any more thoughts on these two's interactions postgame, I'd love to hear.
I dont think it's perfect by any means (nothing on the ship is!) but its proooobably the best quick-solution scenario?

took the chance as soon as i saw your reqs were open. love love love your works, and would like to req “ah, so you aren’t heartless after all.” with sae
(Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy this <3 Prompts are taken from this list! Requests are closed for this event!)
"Ah, so you aren't heartless after all."
If it weren't for the slight twitch of Sae's eyebrow, you might have thought he hadn't heard your words at all. As it was, he only continued to scroll through his phone, looking at the latest headlines about recent football news (of course).
You nudged Sae's calf with your foot, but he only responded by folding it underneath him and out of your reach.
"Sae," you said again. "You are so cute, you know that?"
"That sounds like harassment," he said.
"I'm your partner. It's not harassment to call you cute. I just want a bit of your attention. Come on."
"What is it?" he said, without looking up from his phone.
You stretched across his lap like a boneless cat, resting your head on his lap, and swiped the phone from his grip for good measure. He let it go with a disgruntled sigh as you peered up at him.
"You're not so heartless as you try to come off as. You love me."
"I do?"
"Hey," you complained.
"I have no idea what you're talking about."
"Yes you do. Who was the one who arrived to the airport two hours early just to wait for my flight? Who was the one who got upset just because I couldn't text you for a week? Who was the one who--" Sae shoved his hand on top of your mouth, muffling your speech.
"You talk too much."
You licked his palm, and Sae quickly withdrew his hand with a shudder. You grinned up at him, triumphant.
"You love me soooo much."
"I'm in a love with an idiot, is what I am," he said.
"Aha! But you do admit you love me!"
"No comment."
"Sae," you said, dragging out his name, and he gave you a cool stare in return.
To anyone else, Sae might have come off as cold. But you knew him much too well for that. You couldn't mistake the ways his lips turned imperceptibly at the corners, a small smile that only you could see. And that suited you just fine. No one else needed to know how cute Itoshi Sae really was.

Wait hehe.
Modern au where Eddie has a decent following in social media and is known as both a guy who does ttrpg with a few friends and does cool metal covers of different song genres. He's weird, sure, and will also post two minute video monologues but it's done while camera is mildly unfocused on a worm on the wet pavement, or he'll rant about prog rock and then two minutes later go "I'm sorry my statements on Keith Emmerson were inappropriate and I guess" *pauses and looks off camera* "he totally deserves to be in the rock and roll Hall of Fame" like it's a hostage video and someone made him say it because he looks like he's having a terrible time about it.
Anyways he's an internet funny little man and one day he posts a tiktok or what have you labeled "tfw ur bf is sitting in his platonic soulmate's lap instead of yours" and it's just of Steve sitting sideways across Robin's lap on someone's couch chatting and smiling with her before turning to Eddie and giving a little finger wave.
This is of course met with internet hullabaloo because is that Steve Harrington and Robin Buckley? Famous indie music duo who are also starring in a popular new tv series? Social media weirdos? Beloved and popular and bizarre and memeable? Queer icons RobinandSteve? Was Eddie serious? He was dating thee Steve Harrington?
An hour later Robin tags Eddie in a post that is a video obviously taken from slightly under Steve as the angles are a bit weird, and Eddie can be heard saying "oh my god how could I have forgotten you're, like, really famous how'd I do that Steve! Babe, Stop laughing! It was supposed to be a silly relatable post! You're no better Buckley-hey why are you filming this? My mortification isn't funny!!" While the video is just shaking of Steve curling in on himself and Robin trying to focus on Eddie and you can hear them both cackling over Eddie talking. She captions it "tfw ur QPP's bf forgets you two are famous and that most ppl don't know they're dating. Or didn't, at least"
