#Just hanging out together in an undefined relationship: a mire of attachment issues and intense feelings and buried resentment. And guilt.

You ever have an OC that absolutely fucking nobody should date, both for their own good and the ocs? Like; 'you need 1000 years therapy not the pressures of a committed romantic relationship.'
But you give them that relationship anyway, usually with a character who also probably shouldn't be in a relationship right now, because they're fictional and there for you to study like bugs under a glass. And unrealistically it works out despite being a train wreck because you're self-indulgent and want the characters to have nice things. Spicy nice things, with an occasional hint of bitter when you're in the mood. Plus a thousand AUs where it doesn't work out that don't ruin the enjoyment because 'that doesn't happen in the canon-headcanon'
#We can deal with the trauma in fiction or pretend the world is controlled happy endings.#which is why it's more fun than real trauma which doesn't have an on/off switch.#babbling#OCs#Vel#edgelord hours#petty murder boyfriends#without going into the utter plane crash that was durgetash#villainous nonsense#Vel has no grounding in the world around him so he has to build off of another person. First it was Bhaal and now Bhaal was gone#Without a 'centre' he just collapses. There's nothing else to hold onto#He needs to develop his own identity but is decades away from that#Congrats to the boyfriend you're now the sole anchor because everybody else left and if you leave the world faces Consequences#But nobody will tell you that because it will poison the relationship#Just hanging out together in an undefined relationship: a mire of attachment issues and intense feelings and buried resentment. And guilt.#And murder. For fun and profit.#And fluffy happy moments#I think I'm gonna make a Tav with like zero baggage and marry Wyll and live uncomplicated happily ever after at some point#As a palette cleanser
