tell me your honest opinion of my portrayal

[shackld]

hi i’m here to talk about characters with aches

aches from old injuries. finicky battle wounds, stiff joints from being restrained in captivity - things that their body never erased, pain that reminds them every day of what they went through. maybe it’s obvious, like a limp, or maybe it’s something that is only clear with early morning stretches and groans. maybe the aches grow worse in rainy weather, or when they think about the injury that caused the soreness.

a character who has to live with aches, and the painful memories behind them.

Gentle Care

Taking care of them...

"Hey, it's okay. Show me?"

"What did they do to you?"

"Don't cry - I've got you."

"That's okay - get it all out."

"Deep breath, I have you."

"Sh, sh, I'm going to patch you up."

"I've got a bandage for you."

"This is going to sting, but we have to clean this."

"Oh - okay - we're hugging about this, okay."

"It'll all feel better in the morning."

"I can't believe someone would do this to you..."

"I'm going to protect you."

"Get some rest. I'm not going anywhere."

"You're safe now."

"I'm just going to wipe your face."

"When's the last time you cried like this?"

"There's nothing wrong with you, I promise."

"One day, you'll be okay. For now? It's okay to hurt."

"You want a hug?"

"I've got a blanket for you."

"Nice and cosy..."

"It's okay if you fall asleep."

"Just get some rest. You need it."

"Hey, I made you food."

"I know it's easy to forget to eat when you feel like this."

"You don't need to feel guilty."

"It wasn't your fault."

"Do you want a hot chocolate?"

"There's nothing better than a toasted marshmallow."

"Just hold onto me. There we go."

what's your name chief

"... Why do you wanna know my name, Hella?" A tired yawn expelled from her lips as she barely kept her vision focused on her companion. Of course, there was no reason why Hella shouldn't already know her name - they've been on quite the journey together in the time since Chief woke up - but there was something very amusing in keeping this information from her until now. ( Not that she went out of her way to hide it, but well... She never asked. )

"How about this, you guess, and I'll tell you if you're hot or cold, deal?" Sure, she just wanted to get back some shut-eye, but Chief also couldn't resist the urge to see where Hella would take this. "And don't say loser, asshole, or fuckface. You've already used those up this morning." She'd tried to lecture the girl before on such insults... but what a hypocrite she'd be when Chief found it plenty funny seeing them hurtled at others and only bristled when they were aimed her way. Not like she hasn't been called worse before.

posts some hecking SPICE before laying down and escaping responsibilities

chief being so cool and collected most of the time or well as much as she can be in the situation shes in but getting so riled up with the right partner when they get intimate and just. panting and pleading and an absolute mess and just wants to be oh so good for them actually tell her shes good anyway this post will self destruct in 3 2 1-

[shackld]

everyone shut up chief having the slightest tremors in her hands thanks to, you know, the everything and her writing represents that sometimes it gets all over the place ( but i like to think nobody brings this up or really minds because its still legible ) yet on the battlefield, she has the steadiest hand of them just completely in the zone ( and also the power of the shackles help her focus her aim more )

[shackld]

chief the type to hold someone by the jaw and tug them in for a kiss actually i've decided
