The routine was simple, there were those that could not afford going away from the little safety their homes could provide, and he was one of the few in the area willing to shield them from the dangers around, go gather supplies here and there, a routine that would persist for longer than he ever would think.

Every so often he’d see people attacked, by the outside dangers, wild animals, bandits, but he never had issues in helping protect them. Needless to say, there were greater dangers that would target people like him, risen. And perhaps today it was his turn to deal with one of these dangers.

While he had the chance to run away, there was something much more dire, someone else being attacked, Warlords were not known for being merciful, on the contrary, and this unfair fight would be a solitary death if he didn’t try intervening. And so, gathering his void light, he jumped in to defend the smaller one.

In a sense, it was luck, he knew if he’d been the one to encounter the Warlord, he’d be in a similar situation, beaten and on the ground. Now however, there was an objective and it was to fight and protect, which he did, taking hit after hit, shot after shot. Despite the heavy hits taken, the enemy was not without scratch, and eventually, through pain and exhaustion, Masador came victorious, the crushed remains of a Ghost laid in his hand.

He huffed, looking at the other before limping towards him, he could feel the warmth of blood pool within the inside of his armor, and while he would have loved to have his Ghost help heal him, out in the open like this didn’t feel safe in the slightest. 

“Hey.” He finally called out, hoping that the Exo was conscious. “Are... Are you alright?” Was his question, right after, he had to kneel, take a moment to breathe. 

i may or may not have fucked around a bit due to her references being hunched, so i'm including the original reference:

gently places scout in masador's lap || @stxrmapper​ || Lap Hunter

Admittedly? He was absolutely caught off guard, he stared at Scout for a moment, but would not push him off, instead, he leaned over for a moment to peek at him. 

He allowed the Exo to rest however, there was no use disrupting him.

♡♡♡ give us content for the boi || @stxrmapper​ ||  For every "♡" I get I'll give a tip on how to win my muse's heart.

[[ THE BOI... So while he seems like a hard wall to pierce through, he’s actually... Very simple to get past, it just takes time, especially since he always has in mind that he is undying, so will not die of age, but at the same time, is obligated to defend his land and that may involve attacks to him or his loved ones, so behold, three ways to win big boi over.

Be straightforward, direct, Masador himself expects people to tell him what issues they have with him just like he WILL tell them the issues he has with them, this ties closely with being honest, a rule he’s only broken once with a human he had a thing with long ago (Masador can keep an image all until things get intimate tbh), but being direct and honest really captivates him, he’s mature, and expects the other person to be as well (maturity does NOT mean being no fun allowed.).

Patience, one has to be very, very patient with him, he’s shy, he will avoid as many social situations as he can because he gets genuinely nervous! He will not say it, he will try not to show it, but if one learns how to read his body language it’s very evident. So one just has to know that it’ll take him quite some time for him to get used to certain places, situations or even people.  Alongside that, he IS busy, he essentially has two jobs, one of them requiring him to speak to people from multiple countries, constant meetings and all, and he only makes space without second thought for his family and loved ones, so essentially... To become a loved one, you must be able to wait. Coaching him out or suggesting things is fine, but remanding his attention will be a sure way for him to ignore you.

Despite him being more introverted than anything, he IS drawn a lot towards more extroverted personalities, or ambiverts, people that are outgoing and charismatic, he likes when people slowly coach him out of his comfort zone, gently of course, and when people have the charm to do that and allow him to be more of himself rather than just a working machine, he really, really likes that. Anybody able to see him past his work and duties and well, be accepting on the fact that he is, in fact, a huge nerd.  I guess the best way to explain this one point is, if you are like Sana, he will be more comfortable around you, not only due to the familiarity of situation, but also because he really appreciates how she behaves.
