the hurt/comfort meme

It is in times of distress that hope is truly found. How you handle those periods of duress is a mark of character. Whether you're the one in pain, providing sanctuary, or even if that ache is mutual, hurt/comfort is all about empathy. Connecting with the people around you.

Instructions:

→ Post with your character (note name, canon [if relevant], and preferences in the subject line).
→ Others reply by either generating a number between 1-21 for a prompt, ~~or go off script, I'm not the boss of you~~.
→ Go forth and connect.

Options:

o1. injury: somehow, you've been injured. the severity, whether a mortal wound or "just a scrape" is up to you.
o2. sickness: thinking of calling out of work today? chances are you've got a common bug...or worse.
o3. fear & anxiety: careful where you throw that "scared to death" nonsense...it might just be an omen.
o4. loss of senses: you're missing one of those fundamental six senses, whether it's your sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste, or the Force.
o5. despair: the idea of hope looks more and more like a pipe dream right now.
o6. breakup: and we are never ever ever ever getting back together. ever.
o7. makeup: but you called me up again tonight...
o8. rescued: it's time for one of you to get your damsel in distress on.
o9. bad romance: i knew you were trouble when you walked in.
1o. loss: one of you has just experienced a loss of some kind; can you cope?
11. insanity: for whatever reason, "reason" is lost to you. you're seeing and hearing things. sometimes dead people.
12. tired/insomnia: is it the caffeine or the fact that you never leave your damned senatorial office? whether it's just lack of sleep or lack of energy, this exhaustion is bone-deep.
13. addiction: something's got you hooked, and you might just need a helping hand to give it some distance.
14. nightmares: okay, now you're definitely seeing dead people. do you dare go back to sleep?
15. blackmail: you've been caught and the evidence is compromising. do you seek help or vengeance?
16. separation/homesickness: whatever it is, the nostalgia's got you missing something (or someone) awfully.
17. betrayal: your trust has been violated, but is it a real or imagined slight?
18. stranded: you're stuck. maybe someone crashed your only ship for the 50th damn time. are you sure this isn't reality tv?
19. sins & guilt: the weight of your past deeds is like holding a world on your shoulders. maybe it's time to seek some help, atlas.
2o. secret: loose lips sink spaceships.
21. wildcard: "take your script and shove it, meme."

(( hi i am here for voicetesting and eating sandwiches ))

We have got to stop meeting like this.

["Meeting," of course, being entirely colloquial, said as if she hadn't picked her way through this winding Imperial facility with the express purpose of finding Baze. Her friend. (It's still a peculiar sentiment that tugs at something she can't quite describe, in a way that her mother would have told her was the Force speaking to her despite them both knowing that it only worked that way for Jedi--and now, for no one.)

Jyn cracks a brave half smile, dangling the keycard she'd swiped to "force" the door open from a hooked finger and nods back down the way she'd come.]

Coast should be mostly clear. Unless you wanted to stay?

Probably.

[He would say more, if, you know, he weren't a guy who didn't exactly monologue. That's another old fool's job. Also if they weren't deep in Imperial lines.]

Got the gun?

[No, he doesn't want to stay, but he's also not going to be defenseless here. It's also about as much of a "I'm glad to see you" as anyone gets. But hey. Words are good. Words mean "yes, I care to speak with you for more than monosyllables".]

[Jyn gets words. And the crooked, rogue (haha) smirk of someone who heartily approves of her getting in here on her own.]

[She may understand how Baze works, at least as much as anyone can in the short while they've known each other, but she doesn't give an encouraging response. It's a sad sort of shrug, her other hand coming up empty. She has to decorum to at least look a little admonished by the fact.]

A gun, yes. Your gun...

[She winces, glances behind nervously, and then finally reaches for his arm anyway.]

They may be tyrants, but sadly, that doesn't make them stupid. We'll find it.

[That's just downright unfair. They wouldn't take Chirrut's staff, if he was here! And that thing is just as dangerous! This is incredibly unfair. So says part of his mind he's not going to listen to right now.]

[He grunts. Scowling an impressive scowl. Maybe it's the beard and the hair, but takes her hand anyway.]

Long as you have a gun.

Where to?
