AFA Tropes

* General tropes for the AFA universe *

HoYay:
 * Nikolas and Sapaia to the point where it's barely subtext. They go everywhere and do everything together and are mentally and emotionally bonded in a way usually reserved for married couples. More blatant on Sapaia's end since Nikolas is all but asexual
 * In a similar example, Dietrich and Kishou. Not as blatant as their descendants since Dietrich and Eilwen are in love, but they remain exceptionally close
 * Cruz and Leonel are comfortably touchy feely with each other and have an emotional intimacy going a little beyond simple friendship
 * Chenzira and Bahadur have an age difference that makes them look like father and son, but Bahadur has always been extremely close to the prince and one of the very few that is allowed to freely touch Chenzira
 * Rhain really likes Stefano, though the latter doesn't reciprocate, or is at least hesitant to
 * Arai really likes Reynard, with the latter being more comfortable to flirt back
 * Ramiro thinks Ian is a beautiful woman when they first meet, and treats him accordingly. Even upon discovering his true gender, his feelings don't change much
 * Lawrence, Ian's good buddy, isn't quite immune to his feminine charm either...
 * Ean is caught up in a violent mix of love and hatred for Kazimir, who loves every moment of it
 * Lazarus may feel this way towards his youngest son, Ris, who bears a surprising resemblance to an old flame
 * Ris himself feels a mix of hatred and love for his older brother, Ean, who doesn't feel a drop of affection for him in return. This wouldn't be considered homoerotic were it not for the fact that Ris's mother is a succubus, and violence and sex are deeply intertwined in his nature...
 * Laurent sure likes dropping in on Abel when he's bathing...
 * Abel in general inspires seething hatred or yearning (or both) from men and women alike
 * Simeon is extraordinarily devoted to Abel and is sometimes caught up with how much he likes his voice or his hair...
 * Lazer basically worships the ground Abel walks on
 * Aaron apparently thinks Arai, even in his old age, is total eye candy
 * He also used to have a bit of a crush on his commander, Kaen
 * In a case of LesYay, Rainait likes to hit on Aurora, and Aurora is often smitten with her back (much to Kaen's chagrin)
