GIVEN PURPOSE

You're the kind of person who works best with a stone-set goal or a purpose in your life. Even if those duties were thrust upon you with no input of your own, even if that's all you know - especially if that's all you know - you find yourself most at home when you have a job and you do it. Unfortunately, though, what you've dedicated yourself has gone belly up and you're left reeling.

That is until you find a new mission: a person. They could have shown you kindness when you needed it most, they may seem like someone with a cause. A cause, that's good. That's what you need. You can serve this.

All of your focus, all of your resolve, all in one place; it's no wonder when your feelings begin to blur and "professionalism" and such is no longer the order of the day, if it ever was. So now, you're dedicated to them, which has its ups and downs. You have to protect them, keep them safe, keep them successful, and do what needs to be done for them - their dirty work, if need be - though they may not ask or want this. They especially may not want your brand of service. But loving them normally, of course, would be the most healthy way to channel all this, yet perhaps you're not sure how. You could learn...

...or you could continue with the mission.

((OOC: for some hugely abbreviated background info, he's basically a genetically engineered weapon (though a bit of a faulty one) and has spent his life serving his maker. he'd be great for dirty work, or for killing people who do anything to get in the way of the person he's decided to protect, whether they've asked him to or not. it can be something agreed upon with the person he's decided to dedicate himself to, or if you prefer, he could just have decided to do it and it's not really wanted, lol. Just lemme know what you'd like.

smut and gen welcome.))

Oh Avere. I understand now what you want me to do. Don't worry my love. I will make our wedding the most beautiful yet.

[....Edda no.]

EDDA YES

...

[EDDA NO]

[...No. No, Edda. Edda, NO.]

[Edda I will straight up poison and disease you until you are incapable of chanting or channeling if that's what it takes.]

You've already tried that, don't you remember? I may not be much of a Conjurer but I don't think those tricks will work on me anymore.

...[ NO. ]

[Edda...

Edda no.]

[Edda no, Edda plz.]

[....Well now, those certainly are a lot of unhappy people over this union.

Time to change things up a bit.]

I hear congratulations are in order to the lovely bride!

Why thank you! I've worked so hard to put together this wonderful ceremony. I just wish Avere could wear the suit I made for him. Maybe after his new body is complete.

And it's looking wonderful so far~ Though, a new body?

[Consider her curious!]

Well...yes...

[Tears well to her eyes.]

It's my fault. We were on our first adventure and I couldn't heal him in time. The monsters fell upon him and I was only able to rescue his head from the carnage.

Ahh, such a tragic tale... [She procures a handkerchief from her pocket, offering it to the human. Hm. She may prove to be a useful source of inspiration for another novel.]

Though in my experience, humans don't return once their head's been severed.

[Takes the handkerchief and wipes her eyes, sniffling a bit.]

Oh, that's what our old traveling companions were saying. But we come from a world where magic can summon mighty beasts if there is enough belief in them. And what's stronger than the power of love? I just need to find the right way to do it.

( don't tell anyone, but this dog's bark is worse that his bite and he can definitely be loyal when just a little affection is thrown his way. )

[Would probably most likely be the one giving the other a purpose, mainly in the form of requiring a bodyguard who doesn't mind ghosts. Though can also have done this by accident too and would be unsure of how to handle it.

Totally open to anything!]

[m/f, m/m okay. canonically willing to live and die for his friends. can also be the one giving purpose.]

[m/f, m/m both okay. likely the one giving purpose, but up to discussion for the opposite.]

[m/f, m/m both okay. he's tenacious so he's probably giving purpose.]

[Sakura is a nurse AI, so more than likely the one being given purpose. I'm also open to AUs, given that she is a literal computer program.]

[Long story short: Wes was tortured to be a heartless machine and a weapon for Team Cipher, stealing Pokemon and killing all enemies. His heart was locked and he gets punished if his 'makers' figure out he's displaying affection at any point, so any romance will be a toss between loyalty and freedom. Note that he did kill his last girl/best friend by accident, so he'll be very hesitant to get close, but he'll obey all orders.

Smut, gen, any gender, all welcome]
