@dimdiamond and i were going back and forth the other day on discord about laios and kabru's bedroom antics. it went from angst to fluff to humor lol
i was going off on a headcanon of mine that laios has a fear of not breathing/being choked, basing off what we know from canon (laios as a child getting choked by a ghost, him always protecting his neck and throat area, the forshaowing of that for the later chapters, etc.)
so, one night while laios and kabru are getting intimate, kabru decides to try to give laios a light choking, in a "heat of the moment" kind of thing. however, laios freaks out and pushes kabru off of him. the mood is pretty much ruined and they're both feeling bad about what just happened. it takes the following morning for the two to talk it out.
their solution to avoid something like that happening again are The Lists (tm). kabru writes down a list of things he's okay with and laios does the same. then, they exchange lists to each other, and write down edit notes on each other's lists and hand them back. they do this for days. it's like passing notes in class, but it's the king and his advisor/lover writing down what is okay to do in bed lol.
then laios forgot his list one day in one of the meeting rooms and marcille finds it. both laios and kabru are embarrassed when she holds it up like a dirty towel lol.
