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.

[Either. His scars comes from all the dragonslaying. Open to m/m, m/f, crosscanon, OCs, AUs, or WoLs]

kisser! probably. it's estinien lol

[cantank]

[ they all have scars. warrior and scions alike. since traveling to the ends of the universe, they've become all the more apparent. both emotional and physical, indeed. they've gained a few in that time, too. but they always, always make it out stronger. somehow.

he's doing push-ups without a shirt on again when i'erret walks into his room in radz-at-han. well, it's her fault for not knocking and she goes still with a heaping bag of dried squid clutched in her arms.

when in the company of zero, y'shtola, vrtra and everyone else she had scoffed good-naturedly at his exposed torso and the rivulets of sweat and hard work. while she knew there were scars, it hadn't seemed all that unusual. she has plenty herself. from saving thancred from lahabrea to facing despair itself.

now, alone? she does stare. a bit, left ear flicking once as she returns to herself and heads to a nearby table to set her gift down. ]

Knock, knock. Delivery.

[ yeah, THAT'S belated as all hells. ]

Tieve (Tav) | Baldur's Gate 3 | ota shipping or platonic

[tiveragh]

[She has burn scars across her face, not too severe but definitely noticeable, and more serious scarring on her left hip/ leg and left shoulder, which doesn't usually show since her clothes tend to be full-coverage.

Happy to play this as wary warming-up to camp companions rather than launching directly into a romantic interlude, or we can handwave a little CR. Open to castmates including other Tav/Durges, cross-canon, and OCs.]
