RE8 characters reacting to being told "I'm proud of you."
She stopped functioning for a moment.
Did she really just hear that?
She turned and looked at you, asking "What did you just say?"
You're a little hesitant now, worried maybe you had offended her.
"I said that I'm proud of you."
Alcina could feel her eyes burn with tears, she couldn't remember the last time someone told her that.
She immediately kneels and pulls you into her embrace.
She tries not to cry as she says "Thank you."
You pull back worried, but she quickly explains that no one has told her that they were proud of her in a long time….if ever.
From then on you promise to make sure she knew how proud you are of her.
When she has a rough day you remind her all the good things she's been doing and compliment her on it.
And if you told her what a good girl she was…..well you save that for the bedroom.
Much like Alcina she stops functioning, but like 5× worse
She's just standing there, with her arms clasped together at her chest.
When she doesn't respond you immediately yell to Angie.
"Shit! Angie I broke Donna!"
Donna seems to snap out of it before asking "You're proud of me?"
"Yes love, you've done so much. Of course I am."
Donna feels tears slip down her cheek before she can help it.
You gently reach out and offer your embrace. You know sometimes she struggles with emotions so you're careful to try not to overwhelm her.
She immediately hugs you, she's quite for a while before whispering low and rough "Thank you."
You kiss her forehead as she pulls back.
For the rest of the day whether you saw it or not she had a smile on her face.
He immediately turns to you with a grin on his face.
It legitimately made him so happy to hear that. But not that he really tries to show it.
But you know him and you know he's preening on the inside.
The rest of his day he was just a little bit nicer as well.
Now that you've said it he goes (just a little bit) more out of his way to do things that he thinks will make you proud of him.
He will also tell you he's proud of you BUT it's kind of in a gruff way.
"Congrats on figuring it out dumbass, proud of you."
Her hand pauses in the air as she reached for a different page.
Did she really hear that?
She wanted to snort because of course you would be proud of her. She's practically a goddess, she's perhaps the most powerful being.
"Thank you." She finally settles on, never looking up from her work. "Now if you don't mind I would like to work in peace."
You could feel your face fall, of course she wouldn't really care. Why should she care about something insignificant you said?
"Of course. My apologies." You say as you quickly vacate the lab.
Miranda heard the hurt in your tone but didn't react, attention to focused on the papers in front of her.
As she worked her mind kept drifting back to the conversation. You told her you were proud of her, when was the last time she had heard those words?
She felt her heart softly flutter, this time the words you had spoken soaking into her heart and brain.
Her heart fluttered until she remembered her reaction, then it dropped like a pound of lead.
She had been callous towards you, that making her groan and pinch the bridge of her nose.
Miranda needed to apologize.
Leaving her work behind she left her lab in search of you.
When she found you she apologized and assured you she would try to work on not being mean while she worked. She cared for you after all.
