When I was depressed beyond moving, he came around regularly to chivvy me out of bed and into the shower. While I was showering he did the washing up. I end up crying my eyes out on him at 1am once every few months. I am grumpy and sulky and extremely growly in the mornings, and he takes care of me anyway. I cannot even begin to express how grateful for this I am. He makes me happy and contented and safe.
And: he is a CHEMIST and I get to talk CHEMISTRY THINGS with him, though we also grump at each other about ~computer stuff~ (that being his Main Thing these days). He designs puzzles and he games enthusiastically and comprehensively; he likes fairy tales and strange magic and grumpy cats and people. In public, he pretends to be dignified.
