#oughhh there's so much more i can say about these three but this post is long enough as is

[razzle-zazzle]

Morris x Dion x Gisu HC's?

Anon. Anon you have activated my brainrot Anon I am going to ramble I have so many thoughts about these three they are my blorbos they are my mental stim toys and I am going to subject you to my brainrot over them.

This got,,, so very long (and there's still so much more I could say lmao) so I'm putting it under a cut

Okay okay so. Dion and Gisu are making googoo eyes at each other. Morris has hired Queepie for K.L.O.B. and they're set up to become friends. Gisu and Morris are on friendly enough terms for Gisu to help Morris fix up a radio and hang out in the treehouse. So there's plenty of ground for Dion and Morris to interact and become idiot rival friends. And there's plenty of opportunity for Gisu, Dion, and Morris to end up in a polycule. I have a lot of thoughts for how they end up all dating but I'll get into those at some other time.

For now, have a whole bunch of little details and headcanons about these three:

They don't announce it right away! Mostly because they kind of stumbled onto the idea to all date each other and are still trying to figure things out. So everyone assumes Dion & Gisu are dating while Morris is just a friend. Up until Norma finds Gisu and Morris making out and confronts them over it.

Dion and Morris have the same idiot rivalry. Enemies to lovers? No. They are enemy lovers. They bicker and challenge each other to stupid dares and annoy each other. They bicker over what to get Gisu as a gift one moment and then they're making out the next. Being annoying is their love language.

They can be tender! Dion is a huge sap, and Morris isn't out to bug him all of the time. There is a mutual attraction; their rivalry is a part of that. It's their dynamic. They'll go at it and call each other names but the moment someone other than Gisu tries to mess with either of them they're not having it.

However, that doesn't mean they're perfectly aligned all the time. One thing that Dion and Morris aren't great at in their teenage years is knowing when and how to de-escalate without outside interference. They get better about it as they age, but if whatever dumb dare they're doing doesn't end conclusively they can very easily blow it up into a massive argument. Gisu does generally interfere before this can happen, but there is the rare genuine fight between these two :[

By the time they hit their early twenties they've gotten a lot better about not going at each other's throats, and don't really need outside intervention to deescalate and calm down. By the time they hit their thirties all of their friends describe them as having "mellowed out" but that is a lie. They still mock fight and jokingly threaten to break up. They still go out of their way to annoy the other affectionately. They still banter and get into dumb dares. They're just well adjusted enough to not blow up at each other if something goes wrong, and they're much more ride or die.

Genderfluid Dion! He's their girlfriend, boyfriend, partner, whatever—it's up to what she's feeling. When they're older and married, Dion goes by such titles as spouse, wubby, lover, wusband, wife, and occasionally "obnoxious husband."

Morris isn't as big on huge romantic gestures, but Dion and Gisu? Giant saps. Morris will occasionally go out of his way to pull off a big romantic gesture because he knows it'll make Dion and Gisu melt. Fireworks, romantic dates, rose petals and candles—Morris has read a few of Gisu's favorite romance novels purely for the purpose of making his girlfriend and partner swoon. And it works.

Dion and Gisu will also pull the same thing on each other. Gifts, dates, flowers—they almost have a soft rivalry in who can make the other swoon harder.

Dion and Gisu have a lot of fun coming up with increasingly sappy nicknames for each other. And for Morris, who will occasionally join in with more ridiculous suggestions just to see his girlfriends laugh.

Morris and Dion have a lot of mean little nicknames for each other. Morris calls Dion Dumbass (affectionate) and Dion will call him Douchebag (affectionate). Morris also steals Flipside from Gisu. They will call each other "babe" and "dude" and "sweetie" but only when nobody is looking. There are more nicknames and terms of endearment but this list is getting,,, so very long already.

Dion loves when Gisu rambles about a project she's working on or a book she's reading . They only understand half of it but there's just something about the cadence of Gisu's voice when she's excited or working through a problem that makes Dion soft. Dion can and will prompt Gisu to talk about things that interest her, just so they can hear her voice.

No but for real if the Dion/Morris corner of the dynamic is idiot rivalry then the Dion/Gisu corner is tender sap. Oh, there's plenty of teenage dumbassery (and plenty of silly shenanigans when they're adults), plenty of sick stunts and attempts to impress each other. But they're both soft romantics at heart who have tender little fantasies about holding the other and spending time with them and just. being sappy together.

Morris and Gisu weren't even sure if they were romantically interested in each other when the three of them started dating. Their relationship was more of a slowburn, with the two of them going on a few dates to feel things out and eventually developing a soft and simple romance. They come to appreciate a lot of little details about each other, and they enjoy spending quality time together. Morris and Gisu have a very strong friends to lovers feel to their dynamic.

That's not to say it's all sunshine and roses! Being annoying is simply a part of Morris' love language. And Gisu enjoys clever banter a lot. They will needle each other for fun—they're comfortable enough with each other to tease and playfight. This comfort and trust only increases as they become more accomplished as agents—as do their friendships with the other agents.

Morris also likes it when Gisu rambles! He will also ramble about ideas for K.L.O.B. to her and they will get into very long discussions about psychic powers. They ramble at each other often.

All three together? Chaos. They banter and egg each other on and spend time together just for the sake of it. They're tender they're dumbasses they're friends they're in love they're just,,,,, augh.

Love languages! Dion and Morris both love quality time, Dion is very big on physical affection, Morris will lay it on thick with the verbal affection, Morris and Gisu both love gifts and gestures of appreciation, and Dion and Gisu are both huge saps who hoard praise like a dragon hoards treasure.

As adults, they have to balance their love lives with their individual ambitions—the Aquatos may be tangled up with the Psychonauts, but only Raz is an agent. The family hits upon the solution of spending half the year on tour, and the other half in the quarry. So Dion spends half the year traveling (and calling Gisu and Morris very often), and the other half at the Motherlobe with Gisu & Morris. Every few years Gisu will take the projects that don't need a full lab, and Morris will take K.L.O.B. on tour, and the two of them will join Dion on her yearly trip. The three of them are satisfied with what they've worked out, and remain satisfied with it well into adulthood. It takes a lot of work and communication, but that's just how their relationship has always been. It was worth it when they were teens still figuring things out, and it's worth it when they're adults with established lives.

Marriage!! My main marriage headcanon is that they each get two rings, for six total, so they each have one ring for both of the other two. They worked together to make them: they all had an input in the designs, and Morris and Dion helped out with the grunt work, while Gisu handled the more technical aspects.
