[The protector seems to be the default but flipping the script is cool too!]
[OOC: Okay okay please hear me out. This OC is named Sabina, and she is a soldier or guard who beats people up with magic. But in order to amplify her power and keep her mind from parting company with reality while doing lots of magic, she needs to mind-meld with another person. During the mind-meld, she and her partner can share thoughts, feelings, memories, etc. because their minds bleed into one another. So do their senses, so they can have sensory experiences through one anotherβs bodies.
SO. What if the blind criminal lawyer who keeps on trying to take down dangerous people is given a bodyguard, and that bodyguard can allow him to see, but only through her eyes? Would that be interesting to you? Matt is a physical/melee fighter while Sabina is a spell slinger/ranged fighter. Maybe they can do some fighting together? Also, interesting drama about trust, control, and other Things That Matt Murdock Does Not Like to Share can be explored. What do you think?]

[ body guard but can au into guarded too!! ]
[Would you be game for a castmate(ish) for a guard?]
G. I. Robot | Creature Commandos | OTA (Aaand a walking CW for referencing violence)
[Definitely the guard. And he could do with a friend. To eliminate Nazis with, obviously.]
[M/F preferred. Either a pissed off bodyguard or being even more pissed off as the guarded.]
Aedre Knightly | OC | Original | F/M | OTA gen/platonic
[Capable of protecting herself, but more likely than not the guarded!]
Libra Sforza (MBCC Chief) | Path to Nowhere | M/F for ships, OTA gen/platonic
[God knows he's the guarded one, he needs someone to make sure he doesn't die (again).]
[Guard, though I'm not against a scenario where she's either the one protected or she's teaming up with another bodyguard!]
( info. tldr; former priestess turned merchant from the island world of kijann who now travels different worlds/dimensions to trade and make her living. f/f for shipping, wide open to gen. happy to do cross-canon, especially with other fantasy canons. due to the nature of her homeworld, she can easily find herself in other canons/dimensions as a visitor. guard or guarded both good. )
[info! political hostage/spoiled noble playboy. definitely the guarded, though i'm also open to fellow guarded scenarios. imagine being stuck with a third party bodyguard and this whiny tagalong. open to other ocs, cross-medium, assumed cr. gen or shippy is a-okay]
[ This isnβt the first time sheβs saddled with a bodyguard, though usually the honor goes to someone useless enough that she can slip away from after a few alleys. This one, however, is not so easy to escape from, which means her plan to sneak off to a nearby herb patch will need to be delayed even further. She can only hope that no one finds her secret spot before she reaches it.
Curse her father for thinking she canβt gather a couple of items by herself. The chances of being kidnapped again are slimβitβs only happened twice so far, and that was before her lineage is revealed. Now that itβs out in the open, itβs even less likely to happen again, right?
She lets out a sigh, fingers brushing against the cloth satchel at her side. ] You do realize guarding an apothecary is a poor use of talent, donβt you? Or did the he promise you something to 'protect' me?

[ Bodyguard is his usual role, but open to putting him out of his comfort zone. OTA! ]
[ Noctis doesn't remember a time before Gladio. He's been a constant in his life since he was born, as much part of him as his own reflection. When he turns his head, he expects him to be standing there β waiting, watching β a constant, a certainty, a fixed point in a storm. Maybe it's partly selfish, but Noctis feels like he isn't himself without Gladio. Not that he'd expect anyone else to understand. They were raised with the expectation that they were meant to die together. How do you articulate something so intrinsic to your existence?
So when he loses sight of him, it's difficult to say the very least.
Squeezing his hands into fists, Noctis forces air through his lungs. This is fine, he tells himself, scanning the crowd with his best bored expression, trying to ignore the panic rising in his throat. He hates these functions to begin with β too stuffy, too crowded β but it's important for funding, and more than that, his father couldn't make it. Everything rests on Noctis making a good impression.
But where is Gladio?
Another dignitary wanders over to speak with him, and he grits his teeth, attempting to pay attention despite the stress. ]

You don't mind heights, I hope. [ They'd been corresponding through letters for the better part of a month. Daenerys finds she enjoys Mel's commentary a great deal, though she enjoys her wit even more than that. Offering the woman a place on her council was a natural next step β as was the offer of safe passage.
She just failed to mention the fact that it involved a dragon.
Behind her at some distance, Drogon trills, curious, watching the pair of them interact with a flick of his tail. ] He won't harm you, [ Daenerys says, though she shares a small smirk with Mel, knowing it's highly unlikely the woman will be cowed. ]
