SYPARYAS

All I want to do is write this scene where one character treats another character gently and the other one is just totally undone by it in a “this gentleness upsets me far more than all the traumatizing things that have happened to me in this entire story because the suffering was pretty much expected whereas this is just…outside of my comfort zone” and somehow this is difficult. 

YO can I get this but also with a side of “character being gentled starts to break down finally beginning to process how fucked up their past treatment actually was because holy shit they’re so close to tears over someone being so NICE to them, AND being reluctant to go into it with the character being gentle bc they’re afraid they’ll sound pathetic”?

The gentle character is terrified that they are doing something terribly wrong because the hair-stroking or hugging or whatever seems to be making the other character SO uncomfortable, but when they apologize and stop, the other character actually grabs their hand to keep them from going away.

And is not sure if they want it to continue or not because the kindness is making them break down and they’re not sure they’re ready to be so vulnerable (read: did not plan to ever be vulnerable again, like EVER) and so they’re acting really weird and maybe moody but also needy. But also trying NOT to look needy.

They are convinced to the bottom of their soul that this neediness will drive the other character away and must be hidden at all costs, but also it would be so nice and also totally impossible but it would be really nice if it was possible for the other character to see that neediness and… not be revolted by it? 

That's a nice OC you have there, would be a shame if my OC happened to them.

You think your fandom is niche, try being obsessed with your besties oc

hate when you find a character whose so infuriatingly Your Type that its embarrassing like yeahg no one is gonna be surprised when i announce this is my new Guy Of The Month

the "i definitely do NOT have feelings for them in any way shape or form" while obviously crushing on them trope might be cliché to you. it's about being doomed from the start, the desperate denial of the starved self, the tragic inevitably of love to me tho

"i'm not in love with them" oh, honey. you are already so ruined. you have been ruined from the moment you met, and you will be ruined long after you part. your attempts to hide are futile. you cannot escape that which is everywhere and everything. love as a punishment, love as a death sentence. love as god.

idea: scene with two characters eagerly stripping each other clearly about to bone, but they keep getting interrupted by finding carefully concealed weapons in each other’s clothing, so they keep just unholstering, revealing and unstrapping increasingly ludicrous amounts of hidden guns and knives as the clothes come off, and it’s lowkey killing the mood a little

Alternatively: it's not killing the mood at all but it's totally making both of them giggle like they're twelve and possibly get lowkey competitive in a subconscious way about who has the most to drop.

...Oh

It’s not that there’s already a bunch of weapons hidden underneath the sink that makes it awkward so much as that there’s so many weapons hidden underneath the sink that they fall out of the cabinet with the unmistakable sound of a knife-alanche, and then the other person comes in like “I can explain!” and you’re just dead-ass standing there with your own armload of weapons like “I can also explain.”

scene later in the movie - one of the characters pulls out a knife, it's not one of theirs, they laugh and use it anyway
