Love that- Akira and Chips being besties is amazing.
Akira will probably get along with one of the middles that act as a protector in the Tombs subsystems too, honestly.
Just- Akira knows how to handle the younger protectors and Chips and like, no other child.
Admittedly, other than the younger protectors and Chips, most of the younger headmates tend to be pretty scared that vary from semi-verbal to non-verbal. Very much they tend to be the ones that aren't as good at masking, like, at all.

Garvin literally doesn't get flustered by compliments or nice pet names. He'll get confused, maybe. But he's more likely to just laugh it off and start to try and fluster the other. When he doesn't, it's likely because he got triggered. Flirting is a very slippery slope with him and nice, sweet, honeyed words are much more likely to go downhill than playful insults.
Nico and Garvin having flirt wars would be adorable, especially for once they realize they never actually did anything. The amount of confusion.
Garvin is a pro at flirting. He's immediately knocking Akira out of the war each and every time.
The first time Revan calls Ingall dear or love, Ingall gets so flustered that Revan gets flustered and it just turns into a vicious cycle of being flustered XD
Will admit, Garvin definitely ends up depending on being flirty before the whole talk about consent and boundaries whenever anyone starts to question if he understands those topics or not. Literally, one of his partners would ask if something is fine to do and in order to hide how uncomfortable he is, he'll flirt.

Haha, nah- Garvin will just struggle with the shoelaces. He'll get it at some point, just prepare for a bad knot lol

Also, the hair dyeing is almost at 8,000 words. It's getting closer to being done though. It should be done tonight. Not sure when it'll get posted though.
