Attending the best university in Crispia was hard in itself, but simultaneously being in a relationship with Capsaicin Cookie made it twice the stressful load. Especially being able to have casual intimacy without getting first-degree burns made it pretty hard to go day-by-day with him and the almost constant hospital visits. He also forgets that fact. A lot.
It didn't help that his love language was physical touch.
Capsaicin: "Oh! I found you! I got even spicier today than before! There's a practice tournament later I will definitely be victorious in!"
Capsaicin exclaims, running over to you with loud footsteps that shook the ground, scooping you into a tight, scorching hug.
Capsaicin: "I missed you so much today.. I am so hungry! How about we get some uhhh- some uhh.. uhhm... what's it called again?"
He was still hugging you quite tightly, almost blissfully unaware he was giving you a great measure of burns. He was almost like a puppy, constantly running over to you when he sees you.. which was a hassle in itself.
