Hurt but don't forget the comfort

[lovemod]

hurt/comfort smut; meme Bruised. Beaten. Stabbed. Sapped of energy. Tricked. Mentally played and abused. Perhaps you've even seen your home world destroyed, depending on how Homestuck you are. Any way you slice it, characters go through a lot of crap. There's nothing wrong with wanting to see them get pampered and taken care of when they're ailing. In canon, they may not have someone who can provide them with care when they're injured, support and love when they're sick, and physical intimacy all around. In this post, AU or other scenarios can provide them with a caretaking partner of their very own (or, maybe, someone to take care of, if the reverse is their preference). So, for once, weary traveler, you don't have to carry that weight all by yourself.

to bring you out of the darkness; The injury may not be a temporary physical or mental one, however. Some characters suffer more deeply, even if they don't know it. Darkness covers their hearts, they're withdrawn, insecure, angry, or lonely. They need someone to reach out to them and show them unconditional love. This post can provide that, too. Whether it be the cliche and shameless "changed by your love" trope or something more subtle like getting someone to open up, the characters here can offer that and more. All are welcome, they just have to take that first step. » Comment with your character, canon, preferences, and info about what your character's role would be, if you'd like. » Reply to others. » Thread.

Just one glance at Logan and Scott could tell something was troubling him. The thing about the older mutant however was that he hardly ever opened up about his true feelings. He instead chose to hide behind some great brick wall until someone was strong enough to coax him out.

Scott liked to think he was one of those people. Through their eventful years together, he had become quite fond of Logan. Even if he had a funny way of showing it.

"Hey," he murmured while placing a hand on Logan's shoulder, offering an affectionate squeeze. "You don't need to carry this by yourself, you know. I'm here."

[danzan]

Just because he heard Scott coming didn't mean it was easy for Logan to be touched -- to be squeezed -- and he froze up before he could tell himself not to, quickly pulling away with a mildly frantic expression in his eyes. It wasn't Scott's fault; it couldn't ever really be Scott's fault, at least not in this timeline, where everything's fine and peachy.

But when he'd spent all of last night dreaming about the old world and all the people he'd lost, it was impossible for Logan to be even a vague resemblance of calm.

"Fuck." He tried not to swear in the mansion, but Logan liked to think it didn't count when there weren't any kids around. "I... sorry.

"It's not." He shut his eyes, the expression not unlike someone trying to blink a migraine away, then met Scott's gaze with a tired one of his own. "...not something I should talk about, Slim."

He wanted to understand what was happening. Logan had a look in his eyes Scott had never seen before; a look of panic and distress. It only made his worry grow stronger.

"I get it, Logan.. But you've been acting weird ever since two days ago. When you saw me and Jean it was like you saw a ghost or something." It was ridiculous surely but that's what it felt like to Scott.

"I don't want you bottling it up inside, whatever it is you're dealing with. I can't do that." He pulled his hand back to give Logan the space he clearly needed, focusing instead on giving support in a not-so-touchy manner; a listening ear.

In this future, Cyclops didn't hate his guts. It was still surreal to him -- still had Logan looking at him with some form of disbelief before he forced the feeling away. He'd tell him if he could, desperate as he was to be validated by more than Charles. This foreign world didn't feel like it was real, and now, on his third day, Logan still couldn't bring himself to believe that it was.

The concern in Scott's voice felt like a punch to the jaw.

"I can't talk, Scott." Using the other man's name, Logan shoved his hands into the pockets of his jacket. He shook his head. He clenched his eyes shut again, trying to ignore the memory of seeing Jean die, of finding out she'd killed Scott, of the last time he saw Victor before Stryker killed him, of shutting Kayla's dead eyes on Three Mile Island --

"...I'm not bottling anything." A beat. "I'll talk to Charles, and...

"And maybe he can fix me again."

[redblasting]

"Fix you..?" The more he heard the more it added to his confusion. He hated seeing Logan like this, not being able to help him. "I wish I could help you. It's killing me seeing you like this, Lo. You have all this fear in your eyes.. Something's tearing at you and I can't know what it is."

Scott shook his head with a sigh. He wanted to do something instead of standing around useless. "If you can't talk about this, can I at least offer to distract you?"

Even if for a little moment, Scott wanted to take Logan's mind off it.

It was late. About 1a.m. the last time Alex had looked at her phone. She hated to bother Ted in the middle of the night, but she didn’t know where else to go, and staying out in the open just wasn’t an option. Not a good option, anyway.

Alex rang the doorbell and knocked a few times, hoping he would hear it. Her face was stained by dried tears, and her light blue shirt was stained with spatters of blood. Fresh blood soaked the fabric near her right shoulder. Her bag was slung over her left, which was unusual for her.

“Ted!” she called, leaning against the wall to wait.

Ted was still wide awake, finishing up some work when he heard the knocking and a familiar voice.

"Alex..?" He hurried to answer the door, becoming more worried at the sight of her. "What happened to you? Come in." Ted wrapped an arm around his friend to help her inside and closed the door.

[thewateroflife]

“I’m sorry if I woke you,” she said with a sniffle. Alex dropped her pack on the floor with a heavy thud and wrapped her arms around him, hugging him tight. The thought of getting his clothes bloody didn’t even occur to her. She just needed to be held for a little while.

“Someone I trusted shot me.”

She buried her face against his chest, nuzzling gently as she tried to calm down.
