What He Looks For In An S/O~

• Shikamaru is a laid back person, and he'd definitely want an S/O who is chill

• This boy is a GENIUS so he'd be bored with someone who couldn't hold an intelligent conversation

• I've already said it, but someone who's CHILL, Shika can't handle a wild S/O

• He would prefer someone more on the homebody side, he doesn't want to be dragged on adventures all the time (ever)

• He probably wouldn't care if they were a civilian, he'd always wanted a plain life anyways

• Shikamaru wouldn't want your relationship to be scheduled and busy, he'd prefer someone who didn't mind simple things or spontaneous things

• A patient S/O is mandatory cause do you know how many hours he spends doing nothing and being quiet? He'll need a saint

• He needs someone who has a passion for things they love, the way he is with his friends/teammates and shogi

• An accepting S/O, someone who doesn't try to change him, whether it's his laziness or his smoking

• Shikamaru can be pessimistic and snarky sometimes, so he'd do well with someone who has a thick skin

• They need to get along with Choji. Calling him fat is NO NO. (bros before hoes)

Relationship With Shikamaru Stuff~

• Alright, alright we all know the basic stuff. He's going to nap, watch clouds, and play shogi with you, that's old news.

• Shika is not clingy and doesn't crave constant physical affection in the way that he won't for the most part look at you like 'I just wanna hold her'

• He's (obviously) very perceptive, however, and if he knows you want to cuddle or something he will usually indulge you (with some complaints of course)

• If you don't mind smoking once in a while, great! If not, he's very considerate and won't do it when you're around

• Shika is not really the 'let's go out on a date' type, he's more lowkey and prefers to just spend time with you in private

• Surprisingly, he's a big fan of pillow talks, so, please indulge him

• He enjoys journaling, it's a way for him to process everything he took in during the day (it's hard being a super genius) and he would love if you did that together

• Sometimes, when he's in a good mood he'll do little things that he thinks are childish, but how could he say no when you're so cute?? He ends up loving pillow forts

• Massages will be a big thing between you, he's often stressed and that really helps him, but he always feels obligated to return the favor

• He's really like an adorable pessimistic teddybear

• Sometimes he finds the need to rant about whatever and if you're willing to listen, you'll have his heart. On the flip side, he's a great listener, even if he doesn't have much to say, you know he cares

• Oh, he'll remember your anniversaries/birthdays, etc, but don't expect him to make a big deal. At most, he'll get you a small gift and pay extra attention to you

• Definitely the kinda guy to avoid you on your period, not because he thinks it's gross or anything, he just doesn't have the energy to deal with mood swings. He will, however, grab supplies so he can help without being within your range of emotions
