Kissing scars

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.

[ Aside from Buer, Wanderer has not allowed anyone else to view his body after the incident. The scars, both from The Doctor's experimentation and his own doing, still linger on his pale skin, engraved into his being as a permanent reminder of his past failures. They will likely never properly heal... and Wanderer will simply have to accept them as he has done everything thus far.

Today will be different, however. He had deliberated countless nights before ultimately deciding to peel away his black skinsuit and reveal what was underneath. To the heroic Traveler, to Aether. If anyone should see what has become of him, then he supposes it should be the person who returned his memories.
]

...Here, [ he mumbles, setting aside the material and turning his back towards the other man. Wanderer shifts until he is sitting on the edge of the mattress they'd been sharing until now. ] This is the damage done.

[ And sure enough, there are remnants of it. The Electro symbol on Wanderer's nape has been there since his creation, but now there are faint lines across its surface that match the width of one's fingernails, like he had clawed at himself at a point in time. Larger, circular scars line his spine on either end. They are positioned exactly where the fluid tubes were after he was installed into his mecha.

They're not pretty; he knows that well.
