Rage to serenity.

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. Thread!

[OTA for Gen, M/F for Shippy]

Kylo Ren/Brianna Solo • r63!Star Wars • ota

[umbraeternam]

[ most likely to be the one in need of calming. could potentially try to calm someone else but will probably be bad at it. gen scenarios welcome; no gender preference for shippy stuff. canon, cross canon, AUs, OCs, timeline shenanigans all welcome. ]

Enta Jinnai | Sarazanmai | M/M

[goldenhalf]

[Can definitely fill either role.]

A Plain Doll | Bloodborne | ota

[just_a_doll]

[ Definitely the calming one. ]

[This zen guy can offer his services. Did you have something in mind or did you just want me to run with it?]

[Who needs luck?]

Ganymede | Greek mythology | m/m

[eagleswept]

[Prefs on journal, but I'd also love to do some sort of gen version of this, which would be ota. The calming one either way, definitely.]

Yvain Kaivodulin || D&D/flexible/generic high fantasy || OTA

[bastard_crow]

{{The one with the temper. Most likely calming parties: with men, another soldier/mercenary type reigning in his anger/impulse; with women someone expert in redirection, distraction but not too fussy.}}

Maria Hill | MCU | F/M

[standardprocedure]

[Could be either/or depending on the situation and who's involved.]

Ashe ☠ Overwatch ☠ ota

[deadlock_diva]

[ A little scary when angry. Could go either way, though. ]

[perma_banned]

oh boy he's bad at de-escalation

Naminé | Kingdom Hearts

[lethechained]

[ F/M for shipping, also OTA for gen. She's typically the calming one, but there's room for the roles to be reversed. ]

Jin Guangyao (Meng Yao)| The Untamed|ota

[hidden_fragrance]

[He is more likely to be the comforter than the comfortee, but I'm up for both scenarios.]
