10. love + what's a situation that would cause y/c to betray those closest to them?
Love was life to Donovan. Love was several things to him. He imagined love as both forms- he’d read this once, as both agape and eros. Unconditional love and sexual love. To him, unconditional love was a grandpa or a parent holding you and telling them that the loved you. It was hot rolls and a lick on the top of the head. Sexual love was a fine, lovely woman who smiled at you and gave you more intimate, close kisses. The neck, the chest, ran her paws or hands over your body and- that was sexual love to him. Closeness, not sex.
Dimitri… would never see unconditional love in the same way he did. Dimitri understood the love of a parent to be harsh and uncaring, he only understood the kind of kindness Dakota had shown him growing up. Dimitri knew what that kind of love felt like, but he didn’t understand it.
He was familiar with different kinds of love. Familial love. Romantic love. Platonic love. Sexual love. He knew his purpose was love and didn’t know how that ultimately made him feel. Did he have any other meaning? Was that part of why he had yet to develop a backstory for himself? When Dimitri had a wife and finally settled down, what would happen to him? Donovan feared the worst. He worried if Dimitri wouldn’t need him anymore, and then what? What would their mind decide to do with him? Get rid of him?
The others had different perspectives on love, but there was one that stuck out to him the most.
Dagon thought love was a fucking joke.

Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
There's a shadow hanging over me
