Both broken in our own ways

[asoftermeme]

healing the broken meme a shipping meme The events of many canons have left its characters ravaged, unable to be the whole people they once were. They can never go back to the innocence they had before. However, they can find someone who can pull you back from the brink. Some say love can conquer all ills and cure all broken people - the jury is still out on that, but enough people subscribe to the notion that it may have some merit. With the right affection behind it, can it be the elixir to heal traumas or mend angst? For this meme, it can be. No matter what your what your problem is, from daddy issues to being mind controlled to hating all humans or being just a jerk, all you need is healing from the right person. All in all? This is a shameless meme playing with the idea of "cured by love." Love it or hate it, it's prevalent in fiction, both fan and published. And sometimes, no lie, you just want to play it and not be judge for the pure shlock you know it to be. Here is the place; now is the time. However, you don't have to go for unrealistic escapism. One partner trying to help the other through trauma is not an easy task, and there are bound to be setbacks, resistance, and hurt feelings. And what if BOTH partners are a little bit broken? Can they survive together, or will they bring each other down? how to play - Comment with your character and preferences. Feel free to talk about your character's problems. You might also want to mention if your character is the one who needs to be healed or can do the healing. Or perhaps you and your thread partner can play two roughed up characters learning to trust again! - Reply to others.

Captured by space pirates?

[bluey]

[They always have captives but this one has been punched and kicked a lot more than usual. He must've said the wrong thing to the wrong person to get beat up this badly. And he's all by himself, what happened to the other humans he was probably traveling with?

Bluey sits down next to the captured, bound human and observes the small trail of blood dripping from his nose curiously.]

Wow... how come they hit you so hard? 'cos usually- [He trails off, he knows not supposed to start conversations with the captives.]

riku | kingdom hearts | m/m

[limitstorm]

[ either role. he's actually quite good at being inspirational when he's got his heart set on it, so being a healer is a good trait of his--he won't leave your side if you're struggling. he's very, very good at hiding his own scars and problems and ignoring his own emotions, but you may hear him point blank say that his emotions don't matter which could be a glimpse into seeing that something's a little wrong. ]

brian kinney ( qaf )

[kinnetiks]

[There's a slight chance he's going to be a blunt asshole if he's the one taking care and healing but he does have his more tender and caring moments depending on the situation. On the flipside, depending on what he's needing to be healed about (constant rejection by his family maybe), he's either going to try and rebuff you initially or have a bit of a possibly drunken breakdown.]
