ஃ  ➡ mistletoe kisses // @valkyrieonlinc​                                                                  OVW-era ;;

       jack could hardly be described as an APPREHENSIVE man—known for executing dangerous plays ( such as charging headlong at an OR-14 with nothing but an empty gun ), leading squads through difficult challenges ( like that time in west virginia ), & speaking unapologetically his mind, following speech with adequate action no matter WHO he spoke against—

             ( stubborn, resolute, assertive all accurate descriptors where APPREHENSIVE is not. )

—yet he’s introduced to the FEELING of it when caught beneath a bough of mistletoe with overwatch’s golden medic ( & even an empty gun couldn’t restore his mettle ).

she’s bright in all contexts, & while he’s frequently astounded by her exceptional traits, he’s quite literally STUNNED by the beauty she expresses tonight. ( he can face down nulltroopers & bastions with his hands tied & equipped with a single grenade, but not a beautiful woman peering up at him awaiting action. )

                                                                   “ angela, ”

he breathes, flustered ; how many years had he lived on the battlefield, again ?so long as she doesn’t reject the gesture that mistletoe encourages, he’ll follow through—after all, he’s never been one to back down.

taking tentative step to breach distance, he makes clear his intention by casting glance upwards, trusting she’ll follow his eyes & find what draws him nearer. …aside from her gravitating orbit.

when stare returns to the woman before him, jack finds she still stands calm in his presence. for this, that feeling of APPREHENSION dissipates, leaving an opening for warm HOPE to fill, & a soft SMILE to grace his features ;

it’s this smile he ducks in to press carefully to the corner of angela’s lips, little more than a BRUSH, but held for a noticeable moment.

when drawing back, blue eyes shine with GIDDY gleam, that smile spreading wider at what she’d allowed him ;
