DECEMBER DRABBLES DAY 6 Sanders Sides: Roman, Patton  Blurb: Trust is a tender thing, easily made...and just as easily broken. Inspiration: Written for a 2 sentence prompt from @remythehero : (UNSYMPATHETIC PATTON) "Why don't you trust me Roman?" Patton asked tightening his grip on Roman's shirt. "P-Patton I-" Roman stuttered out fearfully. Overall Fic Warnings: Villain!Patton, Achluophobia/Fear of Darkness, Captivity, Hinted Experimentation, Manipulation, Kissing Taglist in Reblog

Roman pulled up short, laughter dying in his throat at the dark hole confronting him, the shadows within the opening seeming to grow ever more malevolent as he stared inside. “We--we’re going…” he gulped, taking a step back, glancing back to the noise and celebration of the festival happening behind them. “In there?” He asked in a small voice, all bravado gone.

Sure, Pattey had said he wanted to go somewhere more private to show him something special. But Roman hadn’t thought he meant this!  

Patton turned, raising an eyebrow, tilting his head in such a way that sent Roman’s heart fluttering. “Why? Don’t you trust me, Ro?” He asked, taking a step forward, winding his fingers into the fabric of Roman’s shirt as their noses touched, Pat’s lips a hair's breadth away from his.

If he’d asked that even two minutes earlier, Roman would have said ‘Yes’ without hesitation. After all, this was Patton asking him to trust him. The softest most adorable puffball that he’d ever met. Who could light up his entire world with his hundred watt smile.

A smile that looked a tad more feral and frightening in the half light shining on his face. 

“P-Patton. I--” Roman stuttered out, his heart pounding like a drum in his chest as Pat giggled, winking at him as he pulled them through the doorway into the pitch black space. He couldn’t even tell if they had walked into a room or if it was some sort of hallway, but wherever they were there were no windows here to let in the light from the fading sun. “Y--you know I don--I don’t like the dark.” 

Yes! My older, stingy boys ❤️

JOHN KRAMER

* John is good in situations when you’re in fear. He’d remind you that you’re safe and nothing could hurt you, he’ll wrap you in his arms and let you cry your eyes out while he tries to shuffle the both of you over to the nearest light source. In all honesty, he finds your nyctophobia a little bit silly and unnecessary, but he’ll never say that out loud. He understands that in this point in time you’re legitimately fearing for your life, and would not ever try and poke and prod at you while you’re at such a low point in your life.

* forehead kisses will be a must in this relationship. He’s not big on the whole affection area, he’d much rather just revel in your presence, but he understands that when someone is so sensitive in terms of such a big thing in the world, they’ll need a lot of love and support. When he notices you looking a little bit warily outside when the sun is coming down, he’ll turn all the lights on, close the curtains and give you an affectionate kiss on the forehead to let you know that you’re safe and the big bad monsters in the dark won’t get you.

* he’d take your whole ‘nyctophobia’ as you already experiencing a life threatening situation. Hell, you’d be experiencing it every day! He’s sad that you practically fear for your life every time the lights go out, but he’s glad because at least that means you appreciate the life you currently have.

HANNIBAL LECTER

* the psychology behind the fear of darkness is the fear of the unknown, the fear of something that the human mind is unable to understand, so taking that fact into perspective, Hannibal will be less than concerned when it comes to you and your fear. He’ll be compassionate when you’re afraid, yes, but it’s only because he’d rather you not be so unnecessarily squeamish as he finds it quite irritating.

* he’ll have the decency to let you have a night light on your side of the bed, something to keep you sane just in case you wake up during the pitch black nights and are unable to get back to sleep due to fear. Sometimes you’ll roll over on your side and poke and prod at Hannibal to wake him up, but that’s only when you’re in your most hysterical moments, and it’s only to let him know that you need cuddles, of which he’ll happily oblige in.
