#actually that might be a reality for any serious relationship aventurine gets into

Odeliaaaaaaa, Thank you so much for writing this masterpiece ♡(੭´͈ ᐜ `͈)੭ (https://www.tumblr.com/seelestia/752992189846585344/the-gambler-and-his-knight?source=share), you did it very very meticulously!!! >< I really enjoyed the touch of anxiety and perhaps also denial you gave him. (ෆ˙ᵕ˙ෆ)♡ to a certain point, I imagined that the reader was dying because of Aventurine's reckless behavior when he was gambling. I mean, not every time bodyguards are able to look after their clients and come out alive, they could be lose an eye or hand, of course I'm not underestimating the reader's abilities, but if only. maybe it will be the breaking point where they know each other's feelings, or maybe not (please don't take it seriously, I just really enjoy angst. And that one just reallllyyy goooooood) wwwww (๑˃́ꇴ˂̀๑) seeing how deep their relationship is, even though it's unspoken, I feel, angst will be their main color. Last, tysm for the food! May you have great day ε(´｡ •᎑•')っ 💕

hi, nonnie! thank u for giving it a read ( ;´ - `;). i'm glad u enjoyed the themes of anxiety & denial in the post russian roulette scene. aventurine is always so laid-back and frivolous—on the outside, anyway—so getting to lace his inner monologue with panic while he's trying (rlly hard) to keep up a front felt like a breath of fresh air to write. aven the beloved ‹//3

dw, ur free to imagine & it isn't unlikely! bodyguards are technically meant to take the brunt for their clients so injuries, minor or heavy, are unavoidable. which gets aventurine worried sick LOL i think it's obvious from a third party perspective that he cares for us, whether that be some moral principle or pesky feelings, it's just hard to come to terms with or acknowledge out loud. (defense mechanism?)

oh no, the confession at death's door trope... the regret, the feelings that finally spill free, the haste & urgency to say it all before it's too late... who knows? maybe. it could be enough for the reader & aven. they're both stubborn in their own ways 🤕
