guardian angels who love their charges

[lumeria]

You're an angel. Not metaphorically, not in the "you're so sweet" way; you're a literal angel - ethereal energy form, wings, and all. But you're not just any sort of angel. You're a guardian angel. Guardian angels are a caste, or choir, created with the sole purpose of protecting those they're assigned to. Each angel is created specifically for the person they guard, with a few exceptions. The only thing you're programed to know is duty. Naturally, being invested in your charge is expected. What if your feelings for them veer away from "dutiful" into "fondness" and then...something else? Angels aren't supposed to know love, at least not in the way those in the living realm do. Still, nothing is as certain as it used to be, and you're not so sure of your purpose. All you know is that you want to keep your charge safe. Can you guarantee that, now?

How to Play Comment with your character and preferences. Mention if you'd rather play the guardian angel or the guarded. Tag others. Use the RNG to determine your fate. Prompts Watching: You've been watching this person as long as both they and you have been in this world. Maybe over years, maybe suddenly, things aren't the same when you look at them. Guilt: You realized that these pesky emotions are growing and you know this is against everything you know to be true. Your kind cannot love, and even if you could, this is wrong. You have known this person their entire life and thinking of them as more is unacceptable. Terrible Angel: You're not angelic at all and fail neatly at almost all the benchmarks, but when it comes to the one you guard, you don't folly. Righteous Fury: Usually, angels must be removed and impassive. You see your charge mistreated, though, and you lose control. Relegated to Guardian Angelhood: You used to be much more important, of a greater choir of angel. Then, you screwed up and got pushed down into the ranks of guardian angel. It would be easy to be bitter towards your charge. You aren't, for some reason. Can't Be Seen: The person you care for the most can't see you. It's typical angel protocol, yet you can't help but want to make yourself noticeable. Affecting Your Work: Your growing and sometimes erratic emotions make your job harder. You're getting sloppy. You may even allow your charge to be hurt or allow yourself to be conspicuous. Jealousy: You saw your charge with someone else and it...it really ruffled your feathers. Maybe you lost your cool. Hopefully, that won't mean bad mojo for the other person involved. No one would be any wiser if you made their head more attractive to bird droppings, though. Kiss: Can you kiss someone when you technically have no lips? They might just feel a pleasant breeze; still, you're kissing them, and this is...nice. How They'd Like You to Look: You've decided to make yourself known to them, and you want your appearance to be to their liking. Inhabiting the Vessel They Love: A bit more sinister than the above, but also somewhat practical. They already love this body, anyway. Revealing Yourself: You're taking the big step and coming into their life as an actual, tangible presence. Of course, "I'm your guardian angel" rarely gets the response you hope. Stay with You: You promise that you'll stay by their side always, now as a physical companion. Confessions: No matter the costs, you're revealing your true feelings. Deciding to be More: It's dangerous, it's unheard of; however, both of you want to become more than just angel and charge. Intimacy Without a Corporeal Form: They know you're there even when you're not in human form, and they want to touch you. This can be a smut option, but it doesn't have to be. Intimacy With a Corporeal Form: You're beginning to learn what it's like to be intimate with them while you're in this new form. Again, this can be a smut option, but it doesn't have to be. Wings: Letting someone touch your wings is the ultimate show of trust and, in angel terms, one of the closest things you have to sexuality. Called to the Mat: Your higher-ups have learned of your sins. Now, you're on trial. Will you deny your charge? Not Officially Yours: Problem number one: you're in love. Problem number two: it's with some other angel's charge. Second Chance: As previously stated, most guardian angels are created for that one special person. However, some angels whose charges have died young are allowed a second chance. Will this new person ever replace your old? Protection: Now is time to do the guarding - by any means necessary, especially now, after realizing just what your charge means to you. Fallen: Because of your sins, you've lost favor. You've been stripped of your heavenly grace and you've fallen. Immortal: You must deal with the implications that your charge will die and you will be sent on to a new heavenly job. Failed: You didn't do enough. You let yourself slip, and now your charge is dying. They were more than just a charge, so you must do what you can to let their soul pass on in the most peaceful manner possible. But can you let go? CHOOSE YOUR OWN

[Don't know if you know this girl or not, but having Tony for an angel could explain so many things...]

As a start?

They swore that He forgave all, and that all could be forgiven, but sometimes, Bruce wondered if that was true. It was the sort of thought that had gotten him into trouble all that time ago, when he had trusted the word of one higher than he and had nearly fallen for it. It had only been his own actions that had spared him the true Fall, but they had not spared him the disgrace, either. What once shone bright now held ash and tarnish, imperfection where perfection had once lived. They said all could be forgiven, but it must be earned.

So when he was given an assignment unlike anything he had done in the past, he really had no concept of how to truly handle it. To be a guardian angel, to protect a child through its life. To keep it safe and on the right path.

Some would think that Bruce had failed, but to him, he was purely glad he had managed to keep Tony Stark alive all of these years.

Stiles Stilinksi | Teen Wolf

[ambisinister]

[ Open to either roll! ]

Dean Winchester | Supernatural | OTA

[huntsdemons]

Captain Steve Rogers | MCU

[like_a_gerbil]

(Either role is good but probably the guardian angel.)

Rolled a 10

[desertedchateau]

(ooc- Sup there, enjoy your demon charge.)

[Morrigan wasn't normally into history. After a while it all blended together into the same repeat of peace, fighting, and then a weird lull once the fighting had stopped. Besides, none of it was pleasant. She had started collecting magazines from different time periods, though, and idly flipped through an issue of "Time" from the mid 1940s. Grabbing her cup of coffee and taking a seat on her couch, Morrigan sighed.] Too bad the outfits were decent.

[Even that didn't make up for a lot of the less than great things that happened during the time period. Morrigan had mostly kept to Makai during that time, though, so a lot of her info was secondhand. She took a drink of her coffee and made a face.] Ugh, this is too bitter. [But she didn't move to stop drinking it.]

21 (because I am horrible)

[bestpal]

[Winter has no memories of who he is, or where he comes from. He is a solider, a weapon in the war against the West, he goes where he is told to go, eats when he is told to eat. There is no satisfaction or anger with each kill, only existence. When he shows signs of remembering anything he is reset.

On one mission, they are not prepared for what sets Winter off. He passes a store, playing music from the Second World War, and something inside of him snaps. Tears come to his eyes and he slides into the crowds, escaping the handlers and his target. He's aimless, all he knows is that he must get away.]

[aggravated]

[ooc: If you would be interested? I have others, if Bruce wouldn't work for you. ^^]

Malcolm Merlyn | Arrow

[saidyouweredead]

[If Malcolm has a guardian angel, he/she/it must spend a lot of time in a bar telling horror stories of how he never listens. It might just need extensive therapy for all the stuff Malcolm's daily life would put it through.]

[Or Malcolm's guardian angel gave up a long time ago and just sighs heavily while keeping him from dying all the times he should.]

vlad tepes | dracula untold

[draculesti]

[quite possibly the most bloodthirsty guardian 'angel' in existence. or, for the brave, the one charge that regularly sends his angel to a bar and weekly therapy sessions. m/f for shipping, prefer to discuss assumed cr beforehand.]

[therizein]

[it's probably a coin-toss who is doing the guardianship between dracula and a reaper/angel of death, but it could be a rather interesting partnership if interested?]

Hannibal Lecter | Hannibal Rising | OTA

[camebefore]

[In bad need of a guardian angel that he would most likely not listen to but at least pretend to do so for.]

[silentlambs]

[ how would a fledgling guardian angel do Clarice-style for him? }

Rule!63 Castiel | Supernatural

[nerdy_angel]

[Obviously the angel.]

Bucky Barnes | MCU | OTA

[tiltheend]

[guardian or angel. go for it.]

Daimon Hellstrom | Marvel | ota

[hellstorm]

[worst angel ever...]

Hawke | DA2/DAI | M/F for shipping, OTA otherwise

[questionablewit]

[Open to being either; if she's the angel I can play her anywhere, so cross-canon very welcome]

ASANO KEIGO | BLEACH | OTA

[loudmouths]

[ open to either, but lbr he needs a guardian... ]

Bruce Banner | MCU

[aggravated]

[Either role would be fine.]

[hashtagging]

Not all angels were made equal. There were the sweet harpists of Hallmark Card fame and then the thundering sword-bearers of a brimstone sermon. And then there was Loki.

What his Duty as an angel had ever been was questionable. The most polite among the Heavenly Host called him an obstacle, a tester of the faithful, for truly, only the most saintly could have patience with him for long.

Which was how he had been drug into Frigga's presence by the edge of his ear. He has the grace to look mildly bashful as his superior begins to describe his scheme to the archangel. It does not last long; soon he is bored, absently grooming his feathers as it was explained why purposefully causing data breaches at major corporations and spilling their trade secrets out onto the internet was not an angelic thing to do.

Erik/The Phantom of the Opera| ALW musical universe| OTA

[operahouseghost]

[Not open to shipping, but everything else is OK! No smut, and he'd do better as an angel of music instead of a charge.]

RNG picked 7! Hope this is good/works.

[airshipcaptain]

[Ever since he was small Afonso always felt like he was being watched. It had been creepy at least until he told his Nana. When he had she'd just laughed before patting his head and telling him that it must be his guardian angel watching him.

He'd been small at the time and accepted this notion without a second thought. After that he even began chattering away when he was alone to the angel. It became a habit to say hello to his guardian angel every day and goodnight before bed. A habit that he kept up until his Nana died.

He was in his twenties now, and yet still couldn't always shake off the feeling that there was something watching him... Especially when there were times he swore he heard organ music no one else did.

Actually, Afonso heard organ music right before getting jumped. Now here he was, lying on his sofa with a pack of frozen peas pressed to his black eye, his wallet and phone stolen and pride bruised.

It was perhaps because he was alone, and feeling a bit miserable, that he spoke.]

You know, if you really are there angel an actual "don't turn down that street" would've been nice.

[Afonso don't try sassing your guardian angel.]
