Scarred hearts

The Kissing Scars Meme

Despite the romanticism surrounding the emotion, it can be difficult to be loved completely — not just the beautiful parts of us, but also the sad parts, the injured parts, the hidden and less-than-pleasant parts. There are marks on us, both physical and mental, that we'd often rather forget. The mental ones can just be easier to hide. As for physical scars, they can be off of our minds some of the time, but that's exceedingly hard to do in more intimate, close moments. Whether it's to your dismay or otherwise, your partner is not looking away and ignoring your scars. To the contrary, they're providing attention in a way most heavily associated with tenderness: kissing. It may be an accidental slip-off target, or they may be trying to show you that what you've done and who you've been don't matter to them now. Does the gesture touch you? Make the walls come up once again because of the memories that are dredged from somewhere you'd rather no-go? A mixture of both? The wound has long closed, yet the pains remain; these days, however, there's someone who may be willing to help you bear it. Reply with the usual: canon, character, preferences, et al. You may also want to say if you're down for smut or not, since it's not a given. Be sure to include what side you'd like your character to play. Mention if you can do both the kisser and the kissed. Also, feel free to talk about your character's scars. Reply to others.

( f/f other than canonmates (lol), most likely the kisser though could be kissed; her scars are most likely mundane, the sort of thing you collect in childhood — unless taken later canon in which case they are from captivity )

[ I mean! I feel like this is a given for them. Aira would absolutely kiss his scars. Probably likes to do it whenever Shouji has a bad day or gets down on himself about his mutation. ]

[ canon and cross welcome, info/prefs in journal. Hopes loved but otherwise characters 20+ preferred. edelgard has scars down her torso and inner arms from experimentation done on her when she was a child. either role is fine and mutual scar-kissing is A+. I'd prefer no unfamiliar OCs here. ]

[ This feels a bit farcical when Dimitri thinks about it. They continued secrecy and the attempts to make everyone think that they still loathe one another. It extends to their sleeping arrangements. They spend as much time apart as they can and Dimitri... Dimitri puts up with it. He sleeps in his own bed, even if he would rather see her. He doesn't do more than share a glance with her when they meet - or perhaps cold or angry words. When they meet to discuss strategy and the war and how to settle things now that they're finally finishing with it all, he acts as if he would rather be anywhere else.

The marriage, after all, was political. For the sake of Fodlan and peace.

And now the war is virtually over. Will he have to keep pretending after it finally does end? Now that those who slither in the dark are finally being driven from their ratholes and killed the light of day? He doesn't know. He tries not to think too hard about the future. After all, he doesn't know how much time they'll end up having - and maybe that's why he spends time sneaking around when they're in the same place. Even with the guards and the hustle and bustle of Imperial and Kingdom courts and troops, he can manage it.

Her door isn't locked (it never is, when she expects him) and he lets himself in as quietly as he can. Dimitri pauses, trying to see in the dim candle-light. ]

El. Are you here?

[ It's been another long day - and he really, truly just wants to spend time with her while he can. ]
