Calm


Calming Presence
You're about to go off the rails. No, no "about," actually. You've left that train track fair behind, and you're crazy. Rage fills every inch of you, and there's no doubt you're about to do something dangerous, stupid, or reckless. Or all three. There's only one person who can calm you down: your partner.

Now, they're using closeness, reassurance, or physical intimacy to remind you what really matters, which is the two of you. Surely, this will bring you back, letting the anger ebb out and you'll be able to think straight again, even if your lover was the actual cause of all this mess.

Won't it? Surely you won't direct your wrath towards them, no matter what.

  • Comment with your character, your canon, your preferences, and which side you'd like to play (the calming one or the one who needs calming).
  • Reply to others.

[ probably the one going nuts, but i won't oppose anyone wanting this rough around the edges moron to try and calm them down.

gen interactions preferred; shipping requires assumed cr for cross-canon/ocs. i'm open to anything! ]

[ Most likely the calm one, but could be the one who needs calming down too depending on the situation.

Gen interactions open for anyone! Shipping open to m/f and f/f, requires assumed cr for crosscanon and for yours to be under 30 even if i age her up when needed. ]

His anger scares her. She understands the why: it's a survival response to avoid pain. Doesn't make it any easier.

"Okay just calm down."

[ He's had it. It's happening again, his emotions--Tate feels too much, Violet's dad said. Gives him a bottle and tells him to swallow, except Tate doesn't. He never does. He's fine, too: he has Violet, after all. Normally, that's enough. Normally, Violet just has to smile and Tate feels less like the monster he knows he is.

Sometimes it's easier to pretend he really is the kid that knows nothing. The kid who really does need the medication, like he still has a chance of being saved even though he was long beyond saving even before the rush of police into his room.

Now, though? ]


She's a stupid bitch.

[ It's Constance, of course--it's always Constance that gets under his skin. Whether it's some perceived jab or not is up in the air: well-worn converse sneakers pace the old bedroom's floors, Tate's jaw tight, his eyes dark. Whatever has Tate worked up is irrelevant at this point, the other having burst into the room, already working himself up. ]

She's trying to get you to move out. She wants you to leave, it's bullshit.

[It should go without saying that his dearest Aulea has an uncanny effect upon the weary king. After listening to the bantering of his war council for one too many hours, Regis returns to his studies to seek out his Queen's embrace. This conflict with Nifleheim has left the Kingdom of Lucis in a dire state since they lost ground to them today. With Galahd lost to the Empire's march, Regis couldn't help but feel as if this five hundred year old armistice has just begun anew as a bloody war to end all wars. He had hoped to raise their precious son in an era of peace but alas, no peace will come until the last Aldercapt lies dead.]

Aulea? [He calls for her once he enters the chamber.] Are you here?

[Regis takes care to lock the door behind him in hopes of deterring all who would disturb his peace. The King of Light desperately needs a moment to recollect his thoughts after his kingdom suffered such a crushing blow. Now with Galahd lost, the Empire moves ever so nearer to the Crowned City. There's millions of lives at stake here and Regis must burden all of their grief and sorrow with his own hands.]

James paces the room from one end to the other. He does not shout and rave like some men might, his rage is cold and all encompassing like a stormy sea. All the emotion is turned inward. It is much easier to blame himself for any and all failings that befall the fort and it's men.

Solving problems is what he does. Sometimes it is easy to find a resolution, and there are some times when he can not see a clear path. Unfortunately that is the case now, he can see no way to escape this social obligation.

Alas, his captain and his luitenants are otherwise engaged, quite literally in one cae, which leaves him here in the Governor's mansion alone and trying to nake the vest of things.

The party is several rooms away and he shouldn't be disturbed while he tries to find a polite reason to leave, but all his ideas come up short.
