Subtle gestures can convey deep affection and understanding without the need for words. Here are 10 subtle ways to reveal just how much your character cares, without using words:
1. Surprising Them with Their Favorite Snack
Character A notices Character B eyeing their favorite treat at a store/party, and later surprises them with it, showing they're paying attention to the little things.
2. Fixing Something Without Being Asked
When B's favorite [object] breaks, A quietly repairs it and leaves it for them to find. This doesn't have to be about objects, e.g. issues like not having a ride home and A picks them up without B asking.
3. Leaving a Hidden Note
A slips a small note into B's bag or coat pocket, something sweet or funny; could be good after a minor fight, or if B has a dangerous career.
4. Covering Them with a Blanket
B falls asleep on the couch, and A drapes a blanket over them gently. Again, cute if it's after a fight.
5. Warming Their Hands with Theirs
On a chilly day, A takes B’s cold hands into their own without a word, offering warmth and comfort.
6. Offering Their Jacket
As B shivers in the cold, A instinctively hands over their jacket without waiting to be asked. Post-fight cuteness x3
7. Cleaning Up After a Tough Day
B comes home exhausted, and A has already tidied up the space. Great if they're married with kids.
8. Brushing Something Off Their Face
When B has a strand of hair or speck of dust on their face, A gently brushes it away; a classic, intimate action.
9. Waiting Up for Them to Get Home
A stays up late just to make sure B gets home safely, greeting them with a warm smile or a cup of tea when they walk in.
10. Running an Errand They Dislike
Knowing B dreads a particular chore or errand, A does it for them without making a big deal, or when they’re stressed/sad.

She’s sweet like fruit on summer days, With tender charm in quiet ways. She’s delicate, a crystal shine, A fragile soul, a rare design.
She feels like children lost in dreams, Her heart is soft, or so it seems. While I fight demons in the night, She is my calm, my guiding light.
He arrived wearing his soul clean, he brought joy to the little girl with her silly fears, she was immensely frustrated for never having kissed, she had had several opportunities, but she didn't want to disappoint her beloved, and if he doesn't like it, spread it around if the kiss is sloppy, then my God I'll be an aunt like the old maids in the past, she was a little neurotic virgin, she was unhappy for fear of being happy, but a great knight in armor arrived riding his chestnut to rescue the maiden from the humiliation of at thirteen years old still not having exchanged saliva with the opposite sex, joking, I just embellished it a little, it was a humble boy who approached her at lunchtime at school, asked to hold her hand and said words she had never heard, little by little she lost all fear, all anxiety, none of those fears remained in her head, he was still talking when she tilted her head, I don't know how to explain how the scene was from then on, because I kissed that mouth as soon as she gave the cue, all I could hear was some screams of the school staff in a big chorus, until finally, until finally.

Even though I spend little time on Tumblr, it is the only place where I can appreciate the sensitivity of others, the purest feelings, here I find a happy place even if it is just a screen.
