Hi there, I have a question for the Blitzkrieg Boys (including Kai): If you had a girlfriend and she had an awful day (for example at work or something), how would you try to cheer her up? Thanks in advance for your time and effort! Love
A bad day? He has those constantly, but he’s seldom sought comfort for those trying times. He’s been taught to ignore any inconveniences, but would he expect his partner to do the same? He imagines he’d be different around someone who had his heart.
“I expect her to tell me what she wants. I’m not interested in playing mind games or guessing games.” Despite how brash his words are, they mainly come from a place of uncertainty and ignorance. He would prefer to rely on his lover for direction. He isn’t exactly the best at making the most romantic of moves. This is his rough way of asking for assistance. He just wants to make sure he doesn’t make their mood worse. “We can just lay down, or something... That’s what I’d do with her. It just makes you feel more grounded - when the only weight you have is their head on your chest. I guess I’d just remind her that I’m here. It’s hard, but fuck it... I’m still here.”
“Drugs probably isn’t the best answer here, is it?” He’s an idiot, but he’s trying. Whenever he has a rough day, he typically relies on anything that serves as an escape. In terms of a partner, he prefers to spend as much time with them as he can in order to avoid doing anything stupid to himself. Perhaps the other isn’t as clingy or reliant on distractions... But he’ll impose his passions onto them, just so they no longer have any troubles.
“We’ll just go out. We don’t need a plan - we never do. If they’re tired, I’ll fuckin’ carry them or something. I’m strong as fuck, you know. We can go drinking. Nothing gets you amped up to take on the night like a shot or two. Maybe even some milkshakes after words. If the red bull and vodka doesn’t hit us, maybe sugar will. We’ll go dancing, we’ll break shit, maybe we’ll crash a party. Nothing puts me in a better mood than doing everything I possibly can to destroy myself. In this case, we’re just destroying all the things that keep her down. That’s a good start.”
He practically cringes at the words his partner withdraws. Vodka? Milkshakes? The thought of those two things instantly make Spencer’s stomach turn. His approach is a bit more tame and less reliant on distractions. He has always been the one who has soothed the savageries of his teammates, so this kind of experience is nothing new for him.
“Unlike Bryan, I’m not trying to kill her. I think after a hard day, going out isn’t necessary. Why waste time being around people when you can simply stay with me in silence? I might brew some tea, or perhaps run them a bath. Usually, I feel inclined to give them space, but wouldn’t it be nice if I joined them in the bath and rubbed their shoulders? I can easily erase all the tension they’ve accumulated. This is nothing for me, but surely it’ll feel like something to them. Perhaps I’m just being selfish and wanting to have an intimate moment, but that’s far better than letting them wrestle with the day’s reflection on their own.”
Kai doesn’t always allow others to get so close... If someone is struggling, he prefers to look the other way and pretend he didn’t acknowledge their pain. It’s not that Kai enjoys watching another ache. Rather, he has no idea how to address it, no idea how to ease it. If he were to expose a sense of softness, then that just means someone might take advantage of his investment. But if he allowed himself to be so soft, this is what he would do...
“I’d take them for a walk or a drive - whether it be around the city or a garden. Sight seeing always puts me at ease when I’m undergoing a stressful day. I assume it will do the same for her as well. It’s better to advert your gaze to something with more meaning than the thing that makes you miserable. If I’m feeling nice, I’ll walk with her. Perhaps I’ll even allow her to wrap her arms around my own. We’ll see how I’m feeling. I don’t like to invest myself in another person’s affairs.”
