Childlike habit
Lexa:
Is kinda embarrassed, but then speaks in one word sentences that u can decode like “bed” “closet” “Check” and Always makes u check under the bed and in the closet for “monsters.”
in her case though a monster could have been an assassin or a reaper. But still, pair this with the gazillion candles she puts on to feel safe and it’s pretty childish. And she will just bury her face into a pillow all humiliated and then u will come along and just hug her and tell her it’s all ok. And she will eventually feel happy and safe.
Ontari:
She would legitimately murder anyone who mentioned it, but she still has a security blanket. You found it adorable
But could never really talk about it for fear of her having an outburst. But at certain times when she was nervous, insecure, or dare I say scared, you would just calmly mention “you have softi?” (Her name for the blanket, softey = softi) and if she nodded her head yes u would leave it at that and snuggle with her, and if she shook it no, and have her hands be twitching, you would smoothly walk over to where she hid it and come and drape it over her shoulders like she liked. It offered the best comfort that way. She would then drape if over your shoulders too in thanks.
Raven:
Since she was usually under so much stress and pain in the day, it wouldn’t be surprising to know she has a couple habits of her own. 1. She has a tendency to stick her pointer and middle finger in her mouth and suckle lightly whenever she was aggravated, or deep in thought when working, you would have to constantly check if her hand was clean so she wouldn’t be inhaling germs constantly, she didn’t do it much though, considering she was a mechanic who used her hands a lot, but if that wasn’t enough, her night time ritual was, she laid her head in your lap or shoulder, and wait for you to tell her a story. She was used to the humming of the Ark, and without it the silence caused wicked insomnia, so you were more than willing to help your adorable looking girlfriend out, and talk to sooth her to sleep. Once you heard her purr snores, you knew she was ok and pulled her into your chest just a bit tighter.
Luna:
Her hair.
Her hair entirely.
She constantly had to be sucking her hair.
Way more serious then ravens. Had a bit of an addiction to it. If anything set her off which wasn’t too common considering her peaceful state, she would immediately reach for a handful of curls, stuff them in her mouth, and suck violently. Apparently it had started right after she had killed her brother. And u did not want to bring back those painful memories. So when that happened you would take her into your arms and just try to slowly coax the hair out. Not wanting her to cough up hair or some other disease u didn’t know of.
But u did find it endearing when she did it. She did it a lot though, and was a reminder that you couldn’t just stop, she would need a constant source of protection.
And the hair offered that.
Octavia:
She sometimes still sleeps with Bellamy at night when she has a nightmare, or just really wants to feel safe and protected.
You know she still needs the comfort of her brother so when she gets that look in her eyes you just calmly walk her to Bellamy’s room and give her a hug and kiss on the forehead and a promise to return in the morning.
