Mordan/sethaka 'meth'
Current Relationship Status: Engaged {24/12/14}
Mordan and Seth are a demon/human couple, but manage to maintain a healthy relationship despite any difficulties. They initially meet through Mordan offering Seth a job opportunity and a roof over his head, but their relationship quickly becomes more personal and the two of them become close friends and eventual partners. Despite their many differences, which in some cases are more like total opposites, the two of them are a surprisingly good match. Instead of causing conflict these differences simply compliment their personalities and interests nicely. While Mordan has more refined and extravagant tastes, Seth is more simple and down to earth. While they might not always 'get' the other, they find these differences charming and are both willing to accommodate the other to reach a middle ground where they're both happy. Admittedly they make an unlikely couple, as they both have off-putting personalities from first impressions and general emotional-constipation. They rarely argue, and when they do it's usually just bickering over trivial things that they both get over quickly. In the case of more serious arguments they both tend to separate until they've cooled down, usually reuniting and acting as if nothing ever happened (they're equally stubborn and proud which leads to refusing to apologize or admit their mistakes, but will apologize if they've genuinely done something wrong). The two of them have a patience for the other that they never display around others which is possibly the secret to their success, and as time goes by and they both learn more about the other their bond only strengthens. |
Physically Mordan is the taller of the two, although Seth isn't short by any means. There's around a 2 inch difference between them. Despite being shorter Seth can be considered the bulkier of the two, while Mordan is more lean. They both keep fit but their methods of doing so are different! Seth is more into weights while Mordan runs, so you can imagine their differences.

Seth isn't usually the type of person Mordan interacts with, so he's initially curious and slightly wary of him. He tries to maintain his aloof persona as he subtly attempts to learn more about his new employee. The fascination only grows and Mordan finds himself letting his guard down around Seth more and more. Mordan is slower at realizing his feelings, as demons tend have trouble recognizing both their own and other's emotions. Remaining oblivious for some time, he's content with spending as much of his free time as possible with Seth. When Mordan finally recognizes his feelings he becomes anxious over it and spends a lot of time convincing himself that it will never happen. It's not uncommon for human and demon relationships to go sour as the novelty of an interspecies relationship wears off and the human realizes demons are much more high-maintenance than expected. Despite Seth being understanding and patient with Mordan's quirks, his anxiety over this still persists even after they get together. He attempts to hide both his demonic side and his anxieties despite it being impossible to hide anything when living with someone. This also results in Mordan finding emotional and physical affection difficult at first. He hates being touched and feels that expressing emotions makes him vulnerable, so resists slightly at the beginning of their relationship. He's gotten much better and will actually initiate things now, although he still gets flustered at unexpected affections. Mordan enjoys spoiling Seth as much as possible. If Seth expresses interest in anything he can usually expect to receive it as a gift eventually. Mordan sometimes finds it frustrating that his partner doesn't appreciate the finer things in life like he does, so usually has to find other ways to express his love. Seth at least appreciates good food, and since Mordan enjoys cooking he's more than happy to provide Seth's favourite meals. And when he's too lazy to cook there's always restaurants and fast food. Mordan learned most of what he knows about relationships from movies and books, so has a bit of an idealized view of it all. He's a firm believer in big romantic gestures and happily ever afters, which means he misses out on the smaller, arguably more important things. When he opens up more and does eventually learn that the little things are more appreciated than expensive gifts, Mordan finds comfort in small and almost constant contact with Seth. He enjoys holding hands and keeping close at every available opportunity, and enjoys playing with Seth's hands/hair/clothes when they're alone (and wouldn't complain if he was on the receiving end either). |

Seth, as a human, is wary around Mordan when they first meet. As a guy down on his luck, and totally homeless he’s forced to suck it up and work for the demon. That all sort of changes when he realizes Mordan isn’t as scary as the media portrays his kind (aka he’s a big dork). With his guard down, Seth finds himself befriending his employer/landlord. They start doing things together and eventually he feels enamored with Mordan as time passes. Even though his infatuation never leaves, and actually only grows, Seth represses the feelings, trying to stick to a “strictly heterosexual/platonic relationship”. Of course, he isn’t able to read Mordan at all, and totally at a loss for how the other feels about him. Seth goes through the internal struggle of hiding his feelings, which become more difficult from instance to instance. Accidental touches and (Mordan provoking) situations push Seth further and further until he can’t handle it anymore and finally makes his feelings known for Mordan. Relieved that his feelings were finally in the open, he was only more relieved to find out that they had been reciprocated. Seth enjoys his relationship with Mordan, both physically and emotionally, but he has a hard time admitting it to anyone else at first. It really comes after he tells his parents that he realizes he couldn’t care less what others think and begins to outwardly express his love for Mordan in public. Seth is a “hands on” sort of guy. He takes any chance to have physical contact with his partner as subtly as possible. His favorite thing is, embarrassingly enough, to hold hands and play footsies under the table in cafes and restaurants even if Seth tries to act like he doesn’t want to. Although Seth likes his own space, he takes more pleasure in Mordan’s company. If Mordan is reading or busying himself in other activities, Seth will come in and bug Mordan until he relents and pays attention to him (examples include sitting on his lap or shaking his chair). That’s not to say Seth can’t be considerate or patient with Mordan, and can easily take a hint when Mordan is really busy with work or something else though. Seth is a hidden romantic, so if Mordan were working, Seth would take the time to throw something together and surprise Mordan with after he’s done. Although he doesn’t have much money, Seth tries his best to give Mordan as much as he can, which is usually through affectionate actions (winky face goes here possibly). Seth tried to write him a song once too (Seth plays the guitar), but it was so bad that it was agreed upon that it would never happen again. Seth’s favorite things about Mordan include: his sense of humor, his hands, and his tie (another winky face goes here) (Thank you Julia for this summary!) |

Various Notes
-Their anniversary is July 20. Seth proposes on Christmas Eve three years after they start dating and they get married 2 years after that!
-Both are highly competitive. They enjoy making bets even though Seth rarely has the cash to pay up if he loses. They're both stubborn and hard headed so will compete over the stupidest things because of their pride. The loser usually just ends up getting teased or having to do some chore though. -Their varied interests leads to a lot of compromises. Mordan drags Seth to see various live performances and in return has to sit through football and wrestling matches. -Mordan is literally always cold and uses Seth as a living heat source regularly. Seth is usually happy to help. -Seth has had to slowly get used to Mordan's more demonic quirks. The biggest issue right now are Mordan's wings as he's usually a little put off by them. Luckily they're rarely out and Mordan generally hates them being touched anyway. |
-Both have musical talent! Mordan plays piano (he's learned other instruments over the years due to his long life, but the piano is his main passion), while Seth can play guitar and drums. Both can also sing pretty well. Mordan has a part time career performing at a local bar run by a close friend, while Seth is attempting to make it big. He usually either plays white boy covers or songs he's written himself. Both are each other's biggest fans and are always there for support during performances.
-They enjoy taking photos of pretty much everything. Their home is filled with framed photographs from their days out and vacations. Most being Myspace-tier selfies or photos taken by innocent bystanders. Seth also enjoys keeping his twitter and instagram followers updated on what foods they have when eating out and what his boyfriend's butt looks like at the moment. -They're that one couple who make everyone uncomfortable through their not so subtle attempts at showing affection in public. It embarrasses everyone and they should be ashamed of themselves. |
