[setlist]

the bodyguard meme You're a pop star, or a royal, or maybe even the last of your kind who will bring about the Earth's redemption. Whatever the case may be, you're in a position that may be a bit dicey if you attract the wrong kind of attention. And you're a bodyguard, a soldier, a knight - a protector. Somehow, you've been roped into protecting this person. You'll be rewarded, of course. The work may be cut out for you, but just do your job, keep your head down, and it'll go smooth. Except for when the two of you break the bounds of professionalism and feelings begin to flourish. Being in such close quarters may get you to see the other in a different light, and saving someone's life just may be the ultimate form of intimacy. Could this be the real danger? To feel so strongly for the one you've sworn to protect...are you compromised? How to Play 1. Comment with your character and preferences, being sure to put if you want to play the guard, the guarded, or either. Also, you may want to put if you prefer fluffy, angsty, or smutty interaction - or have no preference. 2. Comment to others. 3. There are no prompts, because there are so many potential options there could be a hundred. Feel free to play anything: the beginnings of the relationship, just meeting, getting used to each other/not getting along at first, the obligatory first time, a threat on the protected's life and how their protector responds, how the feelings between the two has changed the protection, etc. Your only limit is you.

Jacob Frye { Assassin's Creed } OTA

[hoodedreprobate]

[the guard.]

[juno57]

[ Underneath the calm and impassive exterior, Lucy's nerves were nearly frazzled. She kept on a good poker face, her mind going through as many possible outcomes this meeting with the mentors had for them. Every probability didn't seem likely, the good ones anyway. It had been some time since she had thought of returning here. She kept her interactions with the Brotherhood to a minimum and short, too knee-deep in Templar affairs, playing both sides and making sure her tracks were always covered. Like she was never around. Smuggling data back and forth between the two factions was a deadly job; one slip up and that would be it for her, she would be tortured and killed or outright killed without a fair trial.

There was only one person who knew where her true allegiances lay and that man was Jacob Frye, a man of the past. Someone who was stuck in the present time with no means of returning home unless they sought help. As impossible as it seemed, Lucy was a woman of her word. She had made him a promise to help in any way that she could. ]

I still think this isn't going to be as easy as you think. [ For the billionth time she was going to point that out, the night air cool enough that their breath came out in foggy patches. They were crouched up on a nearby rooftop, her clothing all black, black tights, a black bomber jacket, her stun rod clipped at her hip.

It would've been easier to casually stroll in; she would be recognizable, they wouldn't stop her, however with this unknown man in tow? There would be great suspicion. They would need to find another way in.

Her arm extended and she began to point out the odd few everyday dressed women and men moving around. Either they were relaxed on benches, slowly walking with a smoke in their mouths, on their phones, some in their vehicles. Each one was someone she either knew or they were novices.

Security duty, the eyes and ears of the base. Beginner level. They didn't account for who was inside on patrol. ]

This is why we can't walk you in through the front door. You won't be getting Queen Victoria treatment here, we'll need to go through the back.

You ready for this, Jacob?

[hoodedreprobate]

[Perched next to her Jacob felt reasonably more calm. This was the Brotherhood, his people who had never given him a reason to be afraid of them. While she pointed to the initiates he scanned them in his eagle vision where they lit up blue which was interesting. He thought they would naturally be colored the same as allies. He wasn't sure what to make of that information but he was glad they would stay in his vision no matter where they went.]

Nothing worth doing ever is, luv. [He was certain she was walking into death if he didn't watch her closely. They would know she wasn't an Assassin. They'd see her a Templar and kill her on sight. It would be somewhat more difficult to watch her and these strangers but he trusted they wouldn't hurt him.]

Which door would you recommend? I see a roof entrance. [He gestured towards the roof where he could make out a door which must lead inside.] You know of any others?

[She had all the information on these modern assassins. He would need more scouting before he could give a better plan.]

Fai D. Flourite || Tsubasa Chronicles || OTA

[rebirthmark]

[He can downplay his abilities and pretend to need a guard - or alternatively be against some VERY strong opponents - or he can be the guard.]

[futuretrunks]

[super saiyan bodyguard anyone?]

[futuretrunks]

[The androids can be around to make the stakes a little more higher. So sign me up.]

Matt as the object needing guarding, coming up.

[owesdebts]

[Fury might not be her boss so much anymore, but there were still favors she owed him, still rules she might bend if he asked her to. He'd done a lot for her, stuck his neck out for her when he hadn't had to because he'd 'seen something'. She always considered that a bullshit excuse, but trying to get the truth out of him was about as easy as... well, getting it out of her. So she left him his 'truth' and occasionally checked in with him.

He'd decided to call in one of his favors with her, asking her to take protection duty on some low-level lawyer out of Hell's Kitchen. Sure, the guy had his own practice with a partner, but it was out of a building that threatened to offer the joy of being pinned under its collapse or a possible infection via black mold. Not exactly an up and comer, but... Fury never did anything without a reason. She'd said the guy needed eyes on him and a body between him and whatever might try to come at him, so a body he would get.

All he'd told her about him was that he was a blind lawyer, her own search coming up with pretty much the same results. Wonderful. Bodyguard and babysitter. Fury might have to consider this two favors.

Watching the building, she'd seen the blonde leave, then the other partner, Murdock left alone to fend for himself as he worked a little later. She had no idea what this guy had done to earn attention from the ex-head of SHIELD, but maybe she'd figure that out during her little detail. Either way, when Nelson left, she headed up and slipped into the office, quiet as a mouse, waiting for him to leave the side-room that seemed to be his area of the trio of rooms. She stayed there, by the door, waiting for him to pack it in for the day so she could start tailing him. A part of her was curious how long he'd go without knowing she was there, if he had any sort of survival instincts or if he was just a walking target.]

[injury]

[ Silent as a mouse is not a complete absence of silence. There are other ways to tell if someone is in the nearby vicinity, aside from some sixth sense that a few lucky people possess. Matt isn't one of those, alas, but he has other abilities to help guide his way. For one, both Karen and Foggy are gone, so the new heartbeat can't be either of them. For two, aforementioned firm employees would announce themselves instead of lurking in the shadows that Matt assumes blanket the office now that the only section is partially illuminated is his own.

Again, he assumes because he hasn't flipped the switch to turn everything off. Nick Fury and his Avengers, and SHIELD, are concerns at the end of a distant horizon. Daredevil doesn't involve himself in cosmic affairs, he expects the same consideration in return. (Not that he'd turned down occasional assistance, but the Kitchen is his to protect.) He, too, knows the value of patience, even if it a virtue he still struggles with.

An hour goes by, fingers methodically reading a braille summary of new information for a case, before the lawyer decides enough is enough. He switches off his machines without looking by habit, then collects his cane and jacket, shrugging the latter on by the time he's standing in front of the door.

Then, casually delivered as an afterthought: ]

Coming with or staying here for an illegal search?
