I need something to distract me from another one of those overworked Fridays [I hope this doesn't happen that often to you guys] and because I need a quick break from my XMBB: here, a meme.

Give me a character or a pairing (or both) and I will tell you three tidbits of my personal headcanon for them.You can pick versions of the characters I've

> Before meeting the young lord, the Evening had only had one other experience of a physical relationship; he was with the woman for a while, and he still has a vivid memory of the fearlessness in her during their trysts. She became pregnant with the Evening's child, but she miscarried, and then she left the mountains. They parted amicably.

> The Evening's encounters with the young lord are always related to some kind of incense or scent, but the one he likes best is the smoke of aloeswood, sandalwood, clove, and spices on the young lord's hands. It was the incense that the young lord had been burning during the very first night that they had met.

> The first time that the young lord celebrated his birthday during their relationship, the Evening had nothing to offer him but half a dozen of his own wing feathers. Over the next few nights he watched the young lord carve and shape these gifts into proper writing implements, and developed an appreciation for the young lord's skill with knives.

> Charles can cook, actually; he just tends to destroy the kitchen every time he does - and this is one of the few reasons why Raven yells at him [always affectionately, though].

> The second tattoo he gets from Erik is If you can fight, fight; if you cannot fight, defend; if you cannot defend, flee; if you cannot flee, surrender; if you cannot surrender, die. - Sima Yi, Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The quote is in Chinese characters and it runs in two columns down Charles's right upper arm. Erik himself suggested the text.

> Charles doesn't really tell people when his birthday is, but he was entirely unsurprised when Erik bought him a blue and black striped scarf during the second year that they were together.
