“❖ My muse accidentally falls asleep against yours.” — @america-redefined symbol situations || accepting

           The heavy thrum of Vertibird blades sounds an odd but comforting lullaby to its exhausted passengers. Richter's head lulls to the rhythm, and with just Lone and himself returning to Raven Rock his posture soon sinks in the quiet—

           Until a weight meets his shoulder and his eyes jolt open. A glance down verifies it is indeed the other officer’s head pressed against him, and he stares to see if Lone will wake before casting a glance in the direction of the cockpit. The pilots couldn’t see as far as he can tell...

           Eyes wide and body frozen, Richter contemplates rousing his companion, but he can only imagine the ensuing awkwardness that would linger for the rest of the flight.

           Better to let him sleep.

           He sits silently, afraid to move lest he wake Lone, mind rolling over the possible lies he might tell in the future: No, I don't remember the flight, sir. I slept through the whole thing! Blacked out entirely.

           Just like that jet incident–

           No, don’t think of that.

           Unable to sleep in actuality, Richter’s under-eyes have gone dark by the time the flight pattern changes and a new dilemma arises: What if Lone still sleeps through the landing, if others see them before he awakens? Frowning, Richter delays until there is no other choice. Finally, with a deep inhale, he gently jostles the other with the arm he rests against and reports in a mumble:

         " We're about to land. "

i think theyd be very fun as a ship! they could easily be a superficial sort of decent — mb stuffy and ignoring each other in public to exaggerated extremes bc theyre being ‘proper’ and ‘discreet’ and ppl think they hate each other

or there could also be a lot of imbalance between them. i think ive mentioned it lots of times but i love gullible richter being conned and run around by partners

maybe a mix or a cycling through of aspects. just whatever is natural works

platonically they kinda go the same way*

alsooooooooooooo

for richters mainverse canon i did have him knowing he can have interest in men particularly for a past time in the enclave where maybe some kind of attraction was building between himself and another enclave officer but it never progressed into something they physically acted upon ( like maybe almost coming to a kiss before they get interrupted and then stuff happens and they get assigned apart etc )

so like i have that role for his canon that i could imagine nate easily fulfilling ( so thats a possibility anddd if we ever did want to mess around with a more developed enclave-time ship thing that could be another verse– i just generally keep richter inexperienced with men by the time of his mainverse so i limit his past ‘canonical’ intimate interactions with them )

but theres also possibility for elements of that to all be around platonically ( *richter being his gullible self or them potentially harmonizing in dutiful ways )

and then gosh ive only talked about enclave era but id think theres room for platonic or intimate interactions later on in fo4 times but ive already written so much!!!!

im basically open to anything or trying different things. it feels like a variety of timelines could work between them ! c:

“Please don’t judge me, but I really enjoyed that.”

— @america-redefinedblack sails starters viii || [ open ]

           Lips quirked into a smile and Richter let himself search the captain’s expression in turn, eager to see enjoyment written upon his features. 

         “ As did I,” he confessed, before qualifying, “He deserved it, of course.” Enough the traitor had left their family, stealing resources along the way– But then to be found here, making camp with a ghoul. Even if the deserter hadn’t attacked first, the end result would be the same. 

           Disentangling excitement from duty, he forced his thoughts away from pleasure of execution— and from how Lone’s face glowed beneath the bits of gore that remained upon his cheek… 

         “ Ah, we should,” …match our stories? No, there was no wrongdoing here, despite the odd and sudden guilt that crept up his spine. “…Get cleaned up. ”

           A large canister of coffee under one arm and two mugs in one hand, the Lieutenant raps lightly on the metal frame of the tent to warn the other officer he’s returned before entering.

         “ You’re up?” He’s surprised. “...Sleep much?” Brow knit, Richter sets one mug down then dumps some packets of powdered cream and sugar from the other before setting it down as well. “Brought coffee,” he smiles. “I heard it came out awful but I’m sure the creamer’s worse. ”

🍷- Ideal date

shipping meme thing || [ open ]

in his enclaveverse... its not that hes more of a conformist than he is when hes grand zealot, its more that he has more room to set his own role in the latter scenario

so when he was younger he was more inclined to do traditional things that would fit the enclaves vision of a proper date

dinner, flowers maybe, a holotape etc –...

all that said he never went on a date then anyway 🙃

🔲 - In general - How long does it take for them to have sex with someone they find appealing if that someone shows interest into them as well?

lmao at the time of the enclave he cares about doing his duty but hes not as picky about maintaining an image. so hes even easier but when hes just one soldier among many and hes not as charming or as accomplished nor meant to be particularly handsome there arent as many people interested in him over other

i forgot what age i had him losing his virginity but it isnt until hes like 23 or something and its to a woman who doesnt even get his name exactly right. they only really kinda talked that night and he only ended up in a couple other one night stand scenarios over the next couple years after. so by his history he doesnt require much ( or any ) time but that doesnt mean hes been with many people

he might have been slightly more inclined to make a move back then but his version of that was merely being more obviously available

..............i feel like i cant ever emphasize enough how below mediocre he is socially

         “ Private,” he addresses, eyes lowering as a hand raises to swat a gnat off the man’s shoulder, a frown upon his face. “You’ll be taking the first watch tonight. I’ll have you wake me in three hours and I’ll take the next. ”

           Never ideal to interrupt one’s sleep and certainly Abner could be stationed the whole night with little issue— but after the subject has saved the Lieutenant he figures he owes him a few small… leniences.            His scowl deepens as an insect buzzes by his own face. 

         “ Walk with me,” he grumbles, leading the man toward the officers’ tent. “And tell me what it was you were just staring at while we head there. ”

hypothetical relationships || [ open ]

fc5. i feel like theres a potential for a close platonic friendship? almost like siblings. richter can be really stuffy and is probably routinely horrified by things she says or suggests but he really values capable people who do their job... and by capable i mean dangerous lmaoultimately her relationship with the project would be a big factor

fo. fo4 richters fairly easy to seduce if he isnt around the island / family ( & if shes above at least 32yo. ) hes easy and easily manipulated tho he doesnt generally have a deep / easily accessed emotional capacity. so there could be a friends w benefits thing going on or even something he believes is exclusive? hed probably still be stuffy and be grumpy about things in bed. i have a feeling hed come across as a 2/10 boring lay lmaooofor fo3 richter... probably believes whatever any superiors tell him about her. possibly avoid like the plague / seem suspicious whenever working with her. probably not much room for amicability?

etc. if shes a criminal in modern verses hes sometimes a henchman / body guard type so hed probably like her & they can be criminal frens UuU

👶 - As a kid, what were they like?

all the little things || [ accepting ]

* *

quiet [ like his father ]. overshadowed by his older brother – the little follower of him. not as shy nor as serious as he was often mistaken for [ until his mother was kia when he was eleven. ] his brother was also lost before richter became an adult. the loss of the more outgoing members of the family had lasting effects but for the first decade of his life he was happy enough.

[ enclave raised tho his family transferred to raven rock from a smaller failing outpost before he really remembers ]
