Intimacy was the aspect of their relationship that made Steven most insecure. Although he loved Duff deeply and wanted to make him feel loved in every way, his extreme shyness often worked against him. Every attempt at closeness filled him with nerves, causing him to lower his gaze, blush easily, or freeze, unsure how to react.

Steven made a genuine effort to reciprocate Duff's affection. He worried about not living up to his own expectations and, therefore, tried to overcome his embarrassment little by little. However, many times his nerves got the better of him. He would freeze up, begin to apologize under his breath, and feel a pang of frustration with himself, convinced that he was letting Duff down.

It was in those moments that he most needed to hear Duff's voice. All it took was for her to speak calmly, stroke his hair, or reassure him that there was no need to rush for Steven to begin to relax. Knowing there was no pressure or anger made the guilt slowly fade away, allowing him to breathe easily again.

Over time, Steven understood that for Duff, what mattered wasn't that everything went perfectly, but that they both shared that moment with trust and affection. Those words became a refuge for him, helping him to stop putting so much pressure on himself. Although his shyness never completely disappeared, little by little he stopped seeing it as a failure and began to allow himself to move forward at his own pace, feeling safe beside the person he loved.

Steven saw Duff as the most important person in his life. He admired him deeply and tried to show him that affection every day through small gestures. Although there was a dynamic between them where Duff took the initiative and Steven preferred to follow, it all stemmed from the trust and affection they shared.

He liked to greet him with an immaculate house, a meal ready, and a calm smile. If Duff needed anything, Steven was the first to get up and help, whether it was handing him a jacket, pouring him coffee, or preparing dinner after a long day. He paid attention to his preferences, remembered his schedule, and tried to anticipate anything that might make his day easier.

Steven was very respectful of Duff's decisions within the household. He often asked for her opinion before making significant changes and greatly valued her advice. Not because he felt inferior, but because he trusted her judgment and enjoyed working as a team. For him, Duff was the pillar of the home, someone he wanted to support and from whom he also expected support when he needed it.

Her way of loving was silent and constant. She preferred to show her feelings with actions rather than grand speeches: straightening his coat when he left, waiting up for him when he was late, listening attentively when he talked about his day, and looking for any opportunity to make him smile.

In private, Steven was exceptionally considerate. He was polite, avoided impulsive arguments, and tried to resolve disagreements calmly. He naturally treated Duff with almost ceremonial respect, as if he were the person whose happiness he most wished to protect, finding satisfaction in caring for him and building a home where they could both feel loved and at peace.

Since moving in with Duff, Steven's routine completely changed. His world began to revolve around their shared home, finding tranquility in a simple life away from the noise. He didn't have a job and wasn't looking for one; for him, taking care of the house was his way of showing affection and gratitude.

Every morning she woke up before Duff to make breakfast and leave the kitchen spotless before he awoke. Then she spent hours cleaning every corner of the house: sweeping, mopping, dusting the furniture, doing laundry, changing the sheets, and keeping everything perfectly tidy. She liked that, when Duff came home, he would find a warm, clean, and quiet home where he could rest.

She also enjoyed cooking. She learned new recipes, prepared Duff's favorite dishes, and made sure there was always a home-cooked meal on the table. Although she sometimes made mistakes or burned something, she always tried again patiently, striving to improve because it made her happy to see Duff satisfied.

Steven had a sweet, calm, and very affectionate personality. He often sought Duff's approval in the small details of daily life, asking if the food was good, if the house was clean enough, or if he needed anything else. He liked to show his affection through everyday actions, hugging him when he came home, drawing him a warm bath after a hard day, or sitting quietly beside him while they rested together.

He tried to obey Duff's requests whenever he felt comfortable doing so, not out of obligation, but because he deeply valued the relationship and wanted to contribute to both of their well-being. For Steven, love meant caring, listening, and being present, building a home where they could both feel safe and supported.

Steven is a young man with a strikingly delicate and androgynous appearance, possessing a gentle beauty that makes it hard to look away. He stands at just 1.63 meters tall, giving him a small presence that makes him easily lost in a crowd, though his natural charm often proves the opposite.

Her body is slightly plump, with soft curves rather than defined muscles, giving her a warm and huggable appearance. Her cheeks have a slight roundness that accentuates her youthful expression, while her clear, smooth skin looks almost flawless in any light.

Her hair falls to her shoulders in silky, slightly tousled strands, a dark blonde with golden highlights that shimmer in the sunlight. It frames a face with delicate features: a small nose, soft, full lips, and long eyelashes that make her eyes appear even larger.

His blue eyes are his most striking feature. They have a crystalline and vulnerable appearance, always filled with emotions that are difficult to conceal. He often lowers his gaze when he feels observed, but when he raises it, his expression is almost hypnotic.

His beauty isn't that of someone imposing or intimidating, but rather that of a sweet and ethereal person, with an enchanting fragility that awakens protective instincts. Even when he tries to appear carefree, there's something about him that conveys tenderness, gentleness, and a quiet need for affection.

Steven Adler had a quiet and sensitive personality, with a shyness that was noticeable even when he tried to hide it. He tended to observe more than he spoke, seeking approval from others and avoiding direct conflict. There was something dependent about his way of relating to people: he quickly attached himself to those who gave him attention or security, and when he trusted someone, he became incredibly loyal and emotional.

He exuded a gentle, vulnerable, almost docile energy, like someone who preferred to follow rather than lead. His reactions were more emotional than rational; he could easily become nervous, lower his gaze when intimidated, and fall silent when the atmosphere became tense. Even so, he had playful and affectionate moments, seeking physical closeness or small displays of affection to feel at ease.
