Answering about Alexia and Alfred Ashford.
They definitely revel in the taboo nature of their relationship. It may be something disgusting to the world outside, but they consider themselves to in some ways be one body, and one soul, and they enjoy shocking outsiders with their romantic affection. They both consider it very romantic to be siblings in love. What could be closer?
I’m (🌺😈) going to answer about an pairing I haven’t talked about yet, which is @megaphonegirlk ’s dig/imon OC, Marika and her sister (canon character) Mimi! <3
♧ – how do the characters involved in the pairing respond when asked about their romantic life (such as if they have a partner)? does the answer change depending on the asker?
When someone asks Mimi about her relationship status, she usually says something like “that’s a secret!” or if she’s feeling more teasing “my sister and I are very close, and that’s all I need!” Of course, later on they both date other people in addition, so the answer gets even more complicated.
It took time, but there were a few exercises that we would try to do to kind of figure it out faster.
One was having the person stand in headspace and try to ‘shift’ into the person we were trying to figure out if they were the same.
Another was trying to have the two people we were evaluating try to have a conversation together, or to have them have a conversation with a third party at the same time (we used discord for this.)
Beyond that, it was just up to each of our intuition, and helping one another. Some were definitely more difficult and more emotionally charged than others.
Sorry this one took so long to answer; its been a busy few days! feel free to follow up!

💀 Why is your F/O considered a villain? Do they consider themselves a villain?
They’re considered villainous by the dersites both for being government officials (inherently villainous!! hehe) and for being responsible for the organized crime on derse.
They’re considered villainous by the players/by sburb itself by nature of being the designated ‘bad guys’ of the game– the people meant to stop the players from winning.
As for if they think of themselves as villains, given that they’re criminals I think they think of themselves as charming rogues 😉 I agre with them!!
💍 What’s your ideal relationship to your F/O as a villain? Partner? Henchman? Rival? Something else? What does your F/O want you to be to them? Is there a difference in your feelings here?
😈 What’s the worst villainous act that your F/O has committed?
It’s murder. They’ve definitely all committed some murders that maybe were um, not necessary people to kill. And maybe a lot more violent than necessary. Its okay… there were… circumstances… :c
🎀💖 answering about the midnight crew again!
🎭 Do you want to try to change/reform your F/O, or do you want to support them? Or something else?
I wouldn’t say I want to change any of them, but I do want to help keep them from spiraling out and following their worst impulses. Timelines can get pretty bad when there’s no one around to help stabilize the bunch of them… So, I want to support them, but I sure as heck don’t want to make them worse!
😇 Has your F/O ever done something heroic, or directly against their villainous nature? What caused it, and how did you both feel about it?
They’re big softies deep down (or not so deep down in ❤’s case). I’ve seen Jack ‘lose’ or ‘not bother with’ plenty of tickets and judgements that he didn’t like, or even just let prisoners go if he felt like it. Same for the rest of the crew.
