Call Of Duty: Ghosts - Sebastian and Rorke headcanons part 2
Notes: I only own Sebastian (my OC).
The strongest of the two of them is Rorke. Even when Sebastian rivals Rorke in height, he is bested in strength. It wasn’t by Rorke lifting heavy objects, it was an arm wrestle Sebastian jokingly challenged his commander to. Of course, he never asks Rorke to arm-wrestle again.
Sebastian secretly lords over Rorke in terms of superior agility and dexterity. Maybe at times he nonchalantly showcases it before his commander in unassuming ways, like balancing onto a cargo.
Rorke views Sebastian as plenty of things. A worthy soldier, an up-and-coming protege, a loyal and useful ally. On the other hand, he perceives Sebastian as a dog he can leash; in other words, Rorke believes only he can keep Sebastian tightly leashed up as he issues his next orders.
Even when Sebastian respects Rorke immensely, he does not like to be in the commander's sights when the former Ghost leader is furious. One example is when a young Federation soldier was late to issue a report, Rorke nearly killed him and it also caused Sebastian to take a step back.
Another way Sebastian differs from Rorke is that he cares for his Federation comrades. In the kind of way he doesn't express it easily, but he is willing to jump in to save them. When Rorke ordered the Federation soldier to be killed - after the Ghosts broke into a Federation facility - Sebastian tried to step in but Rorke halted him, sternly reiterating that if a Federation soldier fails to protect his brothers in-arms, he pays with his life.
One of the things that gives Rorke ammunition to tease Sebastian is the protege's lack of skills in romantic business - not that Sebastian cares to explore in that area. In response, Sebastian sarcastically asks if Rorke knows anything in the romantic area, to which his superior nonchalantly replies he has. Not that Sebastian is keen to find out more details.
