#call of duty oc: hellstorm

[the-whispers-of-death]

i like to imagine pilot!reader sending hellstorm something like this in the middle of a mission like ‘haha got your nose’

Hellstorm most likely wouldn't see it until after the mission, because only you are cocky and reckless enough to check/use your phone during a mission (actually everyone else does it, he's just such a stickler for rules despite "not caring about anything").

He's storming (heh) towards you, phone in hand and is like "Why did you think taking pictures during a mission was the best idea???"

He'd never admit to you that he thought it was funny once he got past the whole "taking pictures during a serious mission" thing.

OC interview

Thanks to @illarian-rambling for the tag!

Rules: write your OC's response to the questions

I have Hans von Nirgends on my mind so I'll do it for him.

Are you named after someone?

At birth, I was named after my paternal grandmother... no, I will not tell you what that name was, allesficker. When I fled to Neureich, they asked under what name I wished to be registered, and I... panicked a bit, choosing 'Hans Schmidt' (which I'll admit is possibly the most stereotypically Tuitish name ever). Then I joined the Neureich Friedensrichter corps and got assigned to a little frontier town in the Mittelostia territory called 'Nirgends'- which I may have grown a little too attached to since I had my surname changed to 'von Nirgends' after a year and a half of living there.

When was the last time you cried?

Probably after the last Hellstorm I survived. Not necessarily because anything bad happened, they just leave behind a kind of eldritch beauty that you can't help but shed tears at the sight of. The last time I cried out of heartbreak... I decline to comment, that memory remains buried for a reason.

Do you have kids?

That's not really on the table for me due to several reasons- let's just lie to ourselves, say that Hellstorms are sterilising and leave it at that, alright?- and as much as I'd like to maybe adopt kids someday, I'm also far too afraid that I'll turn out like my father. No child deserves that.

Do you use sarcasm a lot?

What do you think, detective? In all honesty, it annoyed my father, so it became a rebellious habit of mine.

What is the first thing you notice about people?

The way they walk. That can usually tell me whether or not they have a gun concealed that's getting in the way of their movements, but all in all it's just a lesson learnt from experience.

What's your eye colour?

Bluish-grey. Although under... certain conditions, they take on the colour of a dark storm.

Scary movies or Happy endings?

I don't know, maybe my life has just been filled with enough real fear and horror, but scary movies don't really do anything for me. I'm a sucker for a happy ending, though. Probably because I'm still looking for mine.

Any special talents?

What, why do you... oh wait, that's what you mean. I guess I'm a decent-ish marksman. How many people do you know who can take a rifle and put a hole in a coin from a hundred and fifty measures out from horseback?

Where were you born?

Listen here, and listen close. If you tell anyone this, I will find you. Verstehen? Good.

I was born in the Wasserfall family manor in the Grenzenwald barony of Tuitis, near the Tuitis-Lenroux border. Happy? Good, let's move on.

Do you have any pets?

I had a dog named Rufus while I was still a Friedensrichter. Damn good partner, closest I ever had to a friend before I met Anselm and Mariette. Anyways, one day we were on a job, stopping a gang who'd commandeered a cash transit train. Rufus ran in, bit their leader in the soft, and got shot for it.

My orders were to take that gang alive. Well, it's not exactly my fault if some outlaw scum managed to vanish into thin air as if they'd been vaporised. It's also not my fault that I may have done the reasonable thing and... assisted in the emancipation of their molecular bonds.

What sort of sports do you play

In Nirgends they have this sport that the children play where you need to try to get a ball into the other team's goalpost. When I was off duty, I'd sometimes play it with them, though it says something that I as a twenty-four year old man repeatedly got thrashed by a bunch of young teenagers... Bozhe, now I miss home.

How tall are you?

One measure, twenty five marks. In your system that's about 167cm or about 5'5".

What was your favourite subject in school

My father wasn't too keen on the idea of me receiving an education, however there was a guy in town who our family commissioned machinery and other things from who taught me how to read, write, and maintain machinery whenever I snuck out to visit him. My favourite lessons were the ones where he only told me the design specs and left me to figure things out myself. I guess I just enjoyed the challenge and he knew it.

What is your dream job

A musician, maybe. Although if I'm being honest I'm getting tired of a life where something exciting is constantly happening to me. Perhaps I'd like to hang up my rifle and put my talents as a mechanic to use here in Ost-Rietland... yes, that actually sounds quite lovely.

[the-whispers-of-death]

how would your ocs + ghost, soap, and price react to their partner being a age regressor (strictly in a sfw sense)

Okay, so for Ladder, this is just a life partner, since she's aromantic. Also, we'll just put you in the place of Nala's wife (not saying that this is female reader, we'll just change him to have a gender-neutral spouse).

Ghost- He's surprised but he does a lot of research about age regression and he talks in depth with you when you're not regressed about how he should go about taking care of you. It's a lot of new information for him, but if it makes you feel better, he'll deal with it. He learns about all of your favorite cartoons and your favorite stuffies. He understands regressing because it's due to trauma and he understands needing certain coping mechanisms.

Soap- He also does a lot of research and he's very much okay with you being an age regressor. He goes out and buys you a ton of stuffies if he feels like your stash of stuffed animals is lacking. He is very patient with you and just overall doesn't judge you.

Gaz- I'm a firm believer that Gaz only wants you to be happy and healthy, so he just accepts it. He talks to you about what he should expect when you're regressed. He's very heavy on being prepared. He cleans an entire room in his flat for where your stuffed animals should go, so there's a safe place for when you're regressed.

Price- You can't tell me that Price hasn't had partners who were age regressors before. He doesn't even blink an eye to you telling him about it. He asks you what age you regress to, asks what type of clothes you wear when regressed. He sets up an entire playroom full of child-safe toys for when you're regressed, buys a ton of children coloring books.

Stone- I'll be honest, you'd have to tell him what age regression is. He doesn't understand it really, because why would your mind want to revert back to being a kid? It's his own childhood trauma talking, but once you explain it, he accepts it and doesn't judge. He's very much confused on how he should be when you do regress, but he's trying his best.

Kali- I also believe Kali has had partners who were age regressors before, the man is the type to not judge. He very much goes through the same process Price does, asking you what your preferences are when regressed. He buys you a ton of onesies even if he doesn't have much of anything else you may need so that you're comfortable the first time you regress around him.

Sarabi- He too is confused about age regression, but he quickly understands it. He does a ton of research and asks you all sorts of questions. It's the most you've ever heard him speak before and he doesn't seem to shut up with the questions. He wants to know everything so he can best help you. After it all, he tells you that he just wants you to be happy.

Simba- Man doesn't know what he's doing, but he's trying. It's a lot of trial and error about what he's supposed to do when you regress, as he just goes off based on the research he does when you tell him. His heart is in it, so you can't really complain.

Nala- He's okay with it, has a rather neutral view on it. He doesn't care that you're an age regressor. And he already has stuffed animals and coloring books because of his daughters. It's just like taking care of his daughters. (Don't ask me why Simba isn't the same way despite having a son.)

Ladder- She does immaculate research on the topic, absolutely needing to do everything she can to best help you when regressed. She asks you about every little preference you can have and she's able to buy everything you need fairly quickly.

Heartthrob- He is shocked, so shocked to his core. It's because he mixed up ageplay with age regression, but he'll accept it once you correct him. He still kind of doesn't understand it, but he tries his best to be supportive. He baby-proofs his house again, every single room. He might've overdone it all.

Hellstorm- Is he supposed to care? He's more confused on why you thought he would take the revelation badly. I mean, you're dating him and he lowkey is apathetic to most things. That's not to say he won't support you, he just won't have much of a reaction to the news. Ironically, I see him baby-proofing his apartment like Heartthrob baby-proofs his house. It doesn't even matter if you don't regress to a very young age, his apartment is being baby-proofed.

[the-whispers-of-death]

that monster!reader ask has me thinking about those birds that show their courtship by dancing & fluffing their feathers, so i’m imagining hellstorm+stone finding reader lounged out on a rock or something all peacocked out for them🎰

There are so many photos that Monster Wildlife Photographer!Stone and Monster Wildlife Photographer!Hellstorm have where you're just all peacocked out for them, showing off your feathers and strutting around.

Stone is so oblivious but also he lowkey thinks those pictures are the best he has of you. Meanwhile Hellstorm is like "Your wooing of Stone is working??? How???" Like he's so confused but also your courting of him is also working.

[the-whispers-of-death]

‘but if I didn’t use my phones you wouldn’t get to see how pretty you are from below 😄’ -pilot!reader

Hellstorm questions why he likes you, he truly does. But you're too charming for him to resist, so alas he has to fall in love with you.

Still, the worry he gets after a mission when he sees a notification from you that had been sent during said mission makes his eye twitch.

[the-whispers-of-death]

What does everyone else already teach? 🫧

Gaz teaches Creative Photograph 1 (which is just using cameras with film), Soap teaches 2D Studio Art 1 & 2 (so basic studio & advanced studio art), Price teaches World History, Stone teaches U.S. History, Kali teaches Chorus, Ladder teaches IT Systems and Applications, Sarabi teaches AP English Literature and Composition, Nala teaches Personal Fitness, Simba teaches Pre-Calculus, Heartthrob teaches Nutrition & Wellness, and my newest OC teaches Environmental Science.

I don't mind if Ghost teaches the same subject as someone else because there's different classes within each subject that can be for different grades (hence why Price and Stone are both teaching history classes). I just need a subject.

[the-whispers-of-death]

So I thought I'd make a fun little post about all of the original thoughts about my OCs when I created them that aren't part of their character/background now.

Y'all already know I contemplated having Stone being 6'8" & Kali at 6'6". (Someone tell me not to change their heights around, because I'm really seriously contemplating it and you know I don't have much restraint.)

Sarabi was originally single when he first appeared in my mind, but I just had him married to Kevin when writing "Survivor's Guilt/Blood-stained Hands" because I had originally thought I wasn't going to make the rest of The Lions actual OCs.

Simba was originally going to be younger than Nala, hence why I sometimes write him as a little more childish (I guess is the right term) than how Nala acts.

Ladder came to creation when I was daydreaming about 6'8" Stone and so she was originally going to be 4'8", which is the minimum height for women in the Navy. It was supposed to her and Stone being the on opposite sides of the height range for soldiers in the Navy and I probably would've kept her at 4'8" if Stone had been 6'8" at the time.

Heartthrob was actually originally a Sergeant (don't know if anyone remembers me talking about The Tigers originally) and he was originally two years younger than Sarabi, Kali, & Stone. I changed it because I really do see Stone as someone for goes for his age or older and not anyone younger (even if there's only a two-year difference).

I contemplated making Hellstorm a base librarian. I had no idea what the hell his job in the military was going to be until I made the character introduction post for the High School Teacher AU (I still haven't finished the first part of that AU, RIP) and wrote him being a retired naval aviator (they're all retired soldiers in that AU).

Cerberus was originally going to Manish Joshi-Kaur (Stone's half-brother) and it was going to be like "Oh everyone thought he was deceased, but he was actually held in captivity and just presumed to be dead." But I changed it because with the way the timeline matched up with when all of Stone's half-siblings were born, Manish would've been the same age as Ladder & Cerberus was originally used to be eventually romantically with Simba.

This made me realize that I still have yet to post Cerberus' basic info post and so y'all don't even know he's the same age as Simba or that Cerberus isn't Manish Joshi-Kaur, but whatever. I'm holding onto that post until Sarabi's birthday post that's coming in two days.

[the-whispers-of-death]

High School Teacher AU

So the results from this poll was to do the AU with both my OCs & the 141, but I want to clarify that while I might do Teacher!141 x Reader if asked, this AU is mainly a Kali x Stone AU. The 141 aren't really the main focus (though that's not to say they'll only appear rarely).

Anyways, I wanted to first to an introduction of all of the characters (because I finally named my newest OC). We're going to talk about what class they're teaching, a little bit about them in this AU.

We're going to do this by grades (because some of them are teaching the same subject ((ie history)) but they're different classes). It's important to note that this is a U.S. high school, not a British/UK one. Also, some of them still have their callsigns because those callsigns could easily be written as a nickname they got from students.

Okay now onto the cast:

Peter Williams, Personal Fitness (Grade 9)- Coach Williams is well-loved by the students and is a former Marine. He's not very strict, very much lenient, hence why the freshmen love him. He has a knife scar that goes through his left eyebrow and all the way through his left eye (but didn't blind him). He is known for gushing about his wife and daughters (though some students and faculty believe that Dr. Greene is actually his "wife").

Arun "Hellstorm" Khatri, Environmental Science (Grade 9)- Mr. Kahtri is a former Naval pilot and is known as "Hellstorm" because he once "rained hell" down on a teacher who humiliated a student by making them stand outside the classroom with a sign detailing how they misbehaved. That being said, he is known for looking like he's perpetually bored due to his face usually being neutral and his voice monotone.

Kyle Garrick, Creative Photography 1 (Grades 9-12)- Mr. Garrick is a former SAS soldier who moved from the UK to teach kids how to get into photography. He teaches Creative Photography 1 only because he primarily works with film instead of digital cameras. Students often gush about how he makes them love photography and how his tips help them become better photographers.

John MacTavish, 2D Studio Art 1 & 2 (Grades 9-12)- Mr. MacTavish is a former SAS soldier and he moved from the UK to help American kids either start their artistic career or better improve their artistic skills. He's very out-going and he's a hit amongst the students. Don't tell the administrative faculty, but he often puts on movies for the kids on slow days.

Fariz "Heartthrob" Shah, Nutrition & Wellness (Grades 9-12)- Mr. Shah is a former Marine and he got his nickname due to being very charismatic. He is said to make all of the faculty swoon and even some students (though he stays away from students, even if they're eighteen). He teaches his students the joys of cooking.

Ashok Kumar, Chorus 1, 2, & 3 (Grades 9-12)- Mr. Kumar is a former Marine and he is extremely tall at 6'6". He walks a fine line of being demanding in terms of choir performance while also having days where his classes are just watching movies to relax. He and his senior chorus class go to Disney every year to perform. His choirs have won more trophies than the football team.

John Price, World History (Grade 10)- Mr. Price is a former SAS soldier and he moved to America as a favor to the principal of the high school whom he had fought alongside with. He is considered to be a rather fair teacher, stern but not too strict. He's vying to be the favorite history teacher among the tenth graders, often clashing with Stone/Mr. Mishra who also teaches tenth graders.

Vasanti Singh, IT Systems and Applications (Grade 10)- Ms. Singh is a former information systems technical and she took this teaching job simply because it was easy enough to let her mind rest. She's known to goof around, being a hit among the students and the other faculty members. Most students take her class because they think it'll be easy, oh how wrong they are.

Simon "Ghost" Riley, Weight Training 1, 2, & 3 (Grades 10-12)- Coach Riley is a former SAS soldier and he is known for being a hard-ass. He's really strict and has made kids cry, but he was the best out of all of the potential candidates so he got hired. His nickname is due to him being able to just disappear without anyone noticing. He lowkey has animosity towards Coach Williams because he doesn't understand why Coach Williams is so easygoing with the students. He pushes his students to be the best they can be. He has declined offers to become the new football coach, despite his leadership potentially being the key to improve the football team.

Nathan Greene, AP Pre-Calculus (Grades 10-12)- Dr. Greene is a former Marine and he has a PHD in mathematics. He could be teaching at a college and be a professor, but he loves to help improve younger students' love for mathematics. He is rumored to be Coach Williams' "actual" wife as he once popped his head in the gym and asked "how their girls were doing" while referring to Coach Williams' daughters. He has a son and most faculty members who believe Coach Williams and Dr. Greene are actually married swear up and down they can see similarities in both Dr. Greene's son and Coach Williams.

Vikram "Stone" Mishra, United States History (Grades 10-12)- Mr. Mishra is a former Corpsman and is a complete mystery to most people. He has managed to hide his first name from most faculty members and all of the students, as the scantrons they take in his class only refer to him as "Stone Mishra". No one knows where the nickname comes from, but every adult refers to him as "Stone". Students are in awe of his countless old battle scars, enough so that they take his class despite knowing how strict he is. He is often told to be the strictest teacher on campus.

Ivan Kohli-Petrov, AP English Literature & Composition (Grades 11-12)- Mr. Kohli-Petrov is a former Marine and is a man of few words. Despite being mostly silent, his teaching has helped the school's overall test scores improve with how much he makes his class seem more fun. Most juniors and seniors say he makes reading more fun than their previous English teachers. He's not known for his friendliness, considering the looks he gives whenever someone asks him how the right side of his body got severely burned.

[the-whispers-of-death]

do you have any voice claims for your ocs?

Not really, no. The best I can do is describe their voice and tell you if they have an accent or not.

Stone has a thick Indian accent, somehow. He hasn't been with his father for about eighteen-nineteen years, but he still retains the Indian accent that he picked up from all those years alone in a house with his father (who had gotten the accent from his own father). His voice is deep and cold (you know it is). Also, he's almost always speaking loudly, he doesn't even notice it. It's just the way he talks.

Kali has a southern accent, everyone knows it. His voice is lyrical though, deep but smooth even with the accent. It's not a thick southern accent, since he has a hint of an Indian accent mixing in with it.

Sarabi has a thick Russian accent, also somehow. He was home-schooled until he was a freshman in high school and despite the many years around other Americans, he never shook off the accent. His voice is super gruff, like he has been a chainsmoker but he has never smoked in his life. His voice is only soft when reciting poetry.

Simba has a Californian accent. Right sounds like "raught", time sounds like "Tom". Everyone thinks it's funny, even him. His voice is actually high-pitched, I said it. He sounds feminine (even with the testosterone shots he's taking) and he doesn't really care.

Nala has a New York accent, because he grew up in New York. Every word is laced with it, it's inescapable. His voice is neither deep nor high-pitched, it's rather neutral.

Ladder's accent is indistinguishable, she lived in an area with people who had a ride range of ethnicities and so it's just a blend of all those accents. Her voice is soft and sweet, sickening sweet. It's how she gets people to underestimate her long enough so she can pull the wool off their eyes in the most hilarious way possible. Yeah, think she's a weak, defenseless woman, she'll eventually show you whether by sparring or lifting a ladder.

Heartthrob gives me Midwestern vibes, I don't know why. So he has a slight midwestern accent. His voice is also sweet, but unlike Ladder, he's actually completely friendly (not that she's not friendly). He just exudes warmth, okay?

Hellstorm has an indistinguishable accent like Ladder does, but it's because he mostly grew up with white people who had no accent. His voice is kind of deep and painfully monotone, like he's constantly bored. (And here I am, wanting to set him and Sarabi up in the Teacher!AU.)

[the-whispers-of-death]

(maybe hellstorm angst where pilot!reader is recruited for a super dangerous mission because he’s young and ‘expendable’)

Hellstorm barged into the Rear Admiral's office, silently seething. The Rear Admiral was sitting at his desk, looking at papers, and Hellstorm went straight towards him.

"You picked {Name} for the newest mission?" he asked, trying to keep his tone neutral, though it was clear from the tick in his jaw that he wasn't happy with this.

"I did pick him for the new mission, he's the most qualified," the Rear Admiral replied, seeming unfazed at the rising heat in the air. "Besides, you've never cared about other pilots before, Commander."

Hellstorm's jaw clenched even harder. "I don't care about him," he said, spitting the sentence out like the words were bitter on his tongue. "I care that you're needlessly sending a young pilot out on a suicide mission because he's deemed "expendable" to you higher-ups."

The Rear Admiral bristled at the accusation Hellstorm so carelessly threw out, setting down his pen and looking up at Hellstorm. "This is not a suicide mission, Commander. {Name} will be fine," he explained.

"Then send me instead."

The silence that came after Hellstorm's words was deafening, the Rear Admiral staring at the other man like he was seeing someone new for the first time. And perhaps he was, considering Hellstorm had never felt so strongly about anyone before. Hellstorm had never even felt so strongly about himself before.

Here he was though, telling the Rear Admiral to send him instead. Like some savior, which couldn't be farther from the truth of who Hellstorm was as a person. He didn't care, he wasn't supposed to care. Certainly not for some Lieutenant.

"Commander, I'm not sending you on the mission," the Rear Admiral responded after a while, shaking his head at Hellstorm's request.

"Because it's a suicide mission?" Hellstorm asked, prodding and trying to bait the Rear Admiral into admitting it was a suicide mission. If he could do that, maybe you wouldn't be sent on this mission.

The Rear Admiral knew what he was doing though and his jaw clenched, his eyebrows furrowed in anger. "No, Commander," he said, his voice cold as ice. "It's because you're needed here and you do not get to question my decisions. You've done well with following orders up until now and you'll consider to do so, or face punishment. Am I clear?"

Hellstorm wanted to scream, wanted to make even more of a scene that he was already doing. But instead he reached down inside of him to the apathy that always laid within his reach and he pulled it over his emotions, suppressing them.

His face took on a bored expression like always, nodding his head to the Rear Admiral. "Crystal clear, sir," he replied, his voice monotone as always.

"You're dismissed, Commander."

With those words, Hellstorm turned on his heel and walked out of the office, closing the door behind him. He stood there, in the hallway, forcing himself to maintain his bored facade.

I don't care, I don't care, I don't care, Hellstorm chanted to himself like it was a mantra. He then walked to his barracks, leaving the thought of you behind.

Reblogs are welcomed & appreciated! Asks are open, feel free to pop in and talk or request something! (SFW requests only, please and thank you)

[the-whispers-of-death]

hellstorm meeting with fcs!reader again after many years. reader and him met when hellstorm was still in the foster care system and he was the only person hellstorm ever got close to (and reader was also his gay awakening)

Hellstorm meeting you again would throw that man so off-guard, it isn't even funny. He can push away everyone else, make them believe he doesn't care about anything and anyone.

But you, you know too much. You know him better than anyone else ever could. You've seen the younger Arun, before he was ever Hellstorm, and you've seen him at his most vulnerable.

You were there when he got sent to foster home after foster home, reading tear-soaked letters that he sent you detailing how the last foster home wasn't the right fit for him. How expendable he felt whenever he got moved around and carted off to a new foster family only to be moved again a couple months in (if he was lucky to stay that long).

Thus, Hellstorm tries to avoid you as best as he can because you know him too well and you've grown to be even hotter than you were when you two were kids. He can't rely on his facade of boredom when he's around you because you see through that like it's glass and he can't think around you.

If he wasn't too busy panicking over how he's used to act how he usually acts with everyone else around you, he'd let himself feel relief that you're back in his life. But alas, Hellstorm is too busy freaking out.

[the-whispers-of-death]

now that there is something going on between them, hellstorm is now bombarded daily by shitty, cheesy aviation pick up lines-

‘i thought i was lost until my radar pointed in your direction’

‘didn’t know angels could be found at this altitude’

and sometimes when he’s tired, pilot!reader will catch himself sending messages such as ‘will you be my pilot? i’ll let you pull my stick’

Hellstorm, writing letters to Stone (don't ask me how they got each other's mailing addresses): Stone, are cheesy pick-up lines a normal thing to do when dating? Do I say cheesy pick-up lines back?

Stone, writing back a week later: Why do you think I know what dating is like?

Anyways, I think Hellstorm would try his best to give you cheesy, romantic pick-up lines back. In his defense, he's only had one-night stands so dating is new to him. But at least he's giving back the same energy you are, right?

[the-whispers-of-death]

pilot!reader coming back extremely injured and unconscious after said dangerous mission from the previous ask (not mine) and is put in emergency care immediately and wakes up to Hellstorm beside the hospital bed and they have a cute moment maybe? 🥀

This is going to be short, sorry. But it's going to be cute, so yay.

Hellstorm pushed open the doors to the base hospital, walking like a man on a mission. He had heard of you coming back from what he was calling "the suicide mission" and when he had heard you were injured, he came to the base hospital straight away.

As he walked to where the nurses' station was, he was internally cursing the Rear Admiral for sending you on this mission. He told the Rear Admiral that this was a suicide mission, but the man still sent you. And now you were injured.

"Where's {Name}?" Hellstorm asked the nurse covering the nurses' station, his usual monotone voice hard and angry. He vaguely registered the nurse flinching away due to his tone.

The nurse pointed in the direction of your hospital room and he stalked towards the room. He opened the door and the cold heart in his chest softened at seeing you laying on the bed, hooked up to the machines.

Hellstorm walked over to your bedside instantly, his eyebrows furrowed in worry as he looked over your injured body. But his worry was short-lived, due to you opening your eyes.

"I thought you didn't care about me?" you asked, somehow cheeky after all you had been to. Your smile made Hellstorm's heart skip a beat in his chest.

He rolled his eyes, holding onto his facade of boredom. "I don't care about you, I was told by the Rear Admiral to check up on you," he replied, the lie falling off his tongue easily.

But you didn't believe him for a second.

You made an o-shape with your mouth and pretended to go along with his lie, being bold enough to reach over and intertwine your fingers with his. "Yes, I'm sure he did tell you to check up on me. You're doing a great job of following his orders." Your smile broadened as you dropped the act. "But I saw the way your eyebrows were furrowed in worry as I was opening my eyes, you can't fool me."

"Whatever," Hellstorm grumbled half-heartedly. He didn't pull his hand away, he should've, but your hand in his felt so warm. "Should I let you rest?"

Part of him, the selfish part of him which forgot that he was supposed to be emotionless and uncaring, wanted you to say no. To request he stay. He wanted to stay.

And it was a good thing you wanted him to stay too.

"Nah, I rested more than enough," you responded, squeezing the hand of his that you were still holding. "You can't escape me that easily. Pull up a chair, I want to hear all about how you tortured the new aviators with their training."

Hellstorm reached behind him to pull the chair that was in the corner closer to your bedside and he sat down, his lips twitching as he wanted to smile so much at your humor.

God, he had missed you.

Thinking about all of my COD OCs bench pressing your weight after you tell them that you're too heavy for them.

Stone, Kali, Sarabi, Ladder, Heartthrob, Python, and Death are so quick to pick up the weight bar, because they easily bench press more weight than you are and they'd be damned if you thought they couldn't pick you up. Stone, Sarabi, Python, and Death don't even grunt in exertion from it.

Simba, Nala, Cerberus, and Hellstorm are more on the athletic side instead of the burly compared to the rest of my OCs, but they can bench press your weight too. They might seem like they're struggling a bit more than the rest, but they can in fact do it. And once Cerberus is back to a similar body mass than the one he had before captivity, he's going to be even better at showing you how well he can pick you up.

So, all I have to say is that my OCs would love you regardless of your body shape. (Including my non-fandom OCs, but I thought that would just be too many OCs to put in the tags.)

pilot! reader who takes hellstorm’s storming (haha) out the room as confirmation and he’s got a stupid grin plastered across his face for at least the next week. pilot!reader starts bugging him more & is just generally at his heels like a excited puppy.

Hellstorm is ducking into random barracks to try and evade you because he's desperately trying not to care about you. But you're managing to be at his heels every single time.

You're everywhere he goes, he can't escape you. He turns a corner, you're there with that grin. The worse part is when you're not even looking for him, he just turns the corner and he sees you talking with one of the other aviators who is your friend.

He stays hidden from your view, looking at you. You're laughing with them, smiling. Whatever they're saying must be hilarious, he thinks as he watches you snort. Your snort is so cute, he thinks before he can realize what he's even thinking.

Oh fuck.
