3,4,5 for 9 we or any different subsets in the ship :)
My god I am in too deep, this is so very long
What was their first impression of each other?
Well I think Finwë Elwë and Ingwë are all about the same age and met as small children, so they don't remember their first impressions - probably just that that looked like a fun kid to play with. They do remember the first time Olwë trailed after his big brother to play with them and they thought he was very cute.
Miriel I think was also probably part of their little friend group, and perhaps Ingwë's wife (her name is canonically Ilwen) though I think she probably spent more time with other Vanyar kids.
We all know how Elwë and Melian's first meeting went.
I don't know how Olwë met his wife. I feel like he only married her in Valinor, so perhaps they never crossed paths until then.
Finwë first saw Indis dancing in Valinor, and he loved her from that moment. Indis had been watching him from afar (Ingwë is her uncle (I think), so she would have seen him around) and has been in love with him for years.
Who initiates affection? Why does the other not initiate affection as much?
Melian and Elwë are sickeningly cute and affectionate at all times. Once they're both in Valinor it only gets worse because they have seven people to fawn over now.
Indis and Finwë are almost the opposite - because of the Miriel situation Indis feels uncomfortable being too affectionate in public, but also not being affectionate enough, so she sticks to her own code of what is proper. Miriel was very affectionate when she was alive, but became more withdrawn as she got sicker during her pregnancy + after.
Olwë and Mrs. Olwë are the most affectionate with the other 7 in public, not being bound by Vanyarin conservatism or Noldorin politics.
Ilwen is the most light hearted of the lot of them and is a lot more free with her affections. Ingwë is extremely reserved at almost all times except when they are 100% alone, probably because he thinks Manwë is always watching or something.
Do they argue often? If so, what do they argue about?
Melian and Elwë don't argue so much as Melian says something, Elwë ignores it and she is proven right. Melian is fine with this because of weird Ainur reasons that I can't explain without this being 1000 words long.
In petty matters they hardly ever disagree at all, though, so it isn't a big deal.
Ilwen is a FORCE in Vanyarin politics but she makes a point never to argue with Ingwë in public. She has a brand to keep up. Indis learnt from her aunt and employs the same tactic in Tirion, though her and Finwë argue semi-frequently in private. Usually about Fëanor or their kids. She doesn't argue with the others much, hardly ever.
Miriel had no such qualms and regularly and openly challenged all of the others on matters big and small. She loved to argue and she loved to be right. See: why Fëanor is like that
Finwë argues with Ingwë and Ilwen over political and religious matters and also incredibly petty things like what colour to paint the new statue of Manwë Ingwë is paying the Noldor for.
Olwë is just happy to be included and is a very chill dude so he doesn't argue unless it is something he feels very strongly about. His wife is more strong-minded, but doesn't play as much of a role in cross-kingdom politics so doesn't argue with the others as much as she does with Olwë''s advisors.

take my hand imagining the fic of the moving, heartwarmingly beautiful postcoital scene that is, say, amidst the vulnerability there's cyril being caught up in undastardly emotions like the building effects of hours of christmas love on display plus just some fun and reminiscing with a henchman (fucking the krampus) which then must transition into noticing other building effects to then be like hmm perhaps i have to go to the rich person's hospital because having some overly intense/persistent pain &/or difficulty here....and because the legend of the krampus is "helpful little guy" (it's not Not. santa sidekick, even) and here especially being really quite affable like would lend that physical aid & escort but also, just maybe, accompany cyril to said hospital. and that is where it can be the krampus who has been hearing a nonzero amount about a rufus who can make discoveries and facilitate this reunion imo in addition to being an audience for it firsthand to be all :o ;o; about the wonders & joys of it all like and as with so many things gay sex made it all possible this year, & now to go inform an xmas show that it's fine actually, just in time for another amazing beautiful reunion. now take my hand imagining the fic entitled "saks nineteenth avenue" like, yes don't maybe Too sexy. Laughs
