𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐍𝐎𝐍𝐒: Boyfriend!Tom Riddle.

໒ྀི₊ If an argument between you turns into a genuine fight, he locks you in an empty classroom so you can hurl every insult you please. He stands outside in the hallway, leaning against the wall, and nods along with the more creative curses.

໒ྀི₊ His love is kept at bay, and he only gives you small amounts of it—just enough to keep you from leaving.

໒ྀི₊ At night, he reads to you. He says it's to make you more civilised, even though the book he picks is 1984.

໒ྀི₊ If you get sick, he will swear that he won't take care of you. But every time you wake up from a feverish sleep, there is fresh tea on the nightstand and a healing draught waiting next to it. At last, you see him sitting on the edge of your bed with a lunch tray on the desk behind him.

໒ྀི₊ He can take praise from anyone. Anyone, that is, except you.

໒ྀི₊ Almost obsessively invested in your academic performance, he remarks, “She is expected to have proper marks as well. How barbaric of her to earn a poor grade.”

໒ྀི₊ His tongue circles against the inside of his cheek whenever he is jealous.

໒ྀི₊ Each night before sleep, he braids your hair, his fingers uncharacteristically gentle as they move through every strand.

໒ྀི₊ He doesn't care about boundaries when he thinks you're in danger. He is in charge of your safety, and every line you draw becomes meaningless the moment he decides he needs to cross it.

”im the man in this relationship! I’m the woman in this relationship! I’m the twink malewife! I’m that one judgy neighbour!”

well I’m the stray dog in the relationship.

I constantly yearn for your touch yet I will snarl and bite at your hand the minute it doesn’t comply to my request or desire at this micro instant.

I will send out mixed signals and not clarify for you what it is I explicitly want and yet will constantly hover around you.

I’ll whine when you leave and growl if you approach. I’ll curl up just a few centimetres away from your feet and I’ll dart into the forest if you attempt to stroke my head. I’ll bring you sticks and feathers as gifts and keep guard, yet the food you leave out will remain untouched and the fluffy bed you bought unslept in.

those times you go for walks I shall forever accompany your side - yet keep to the shadows as we both know that’s where I reside. When you cook meals I’ll wander the edge of the scent’s trail but never quite far enough to find the treats you have thrown my way. I’ll keep in mind how your journey elsewhere consists of 3 hours and 40 minutes and I’ll be there making sure you return, yet you’ll never be able to follow me - my past a mystery and the present forever evasive. You’ll call me over from the cold, and I’ll call you out into it. We’ll meet eyes and remember those times where you thought of me as a wolf and I thought of you as the hunter.

And I’ll stand by your feet - a metre away. And you’ll be watching, that metre away. And the world seems boundless, forever observing our cycle. And you’ll be yearning, craving a closeness, one which won’t come, due to us being a metre away.

I won’t leave the wild for you, my home is not there, yet I won’t call you into my home, you wouldn’t be happy here. And so we remain conflicted, and so we remain inlove.

and so I endlessly wait for you, and you endlessly for me.

To be "doglike" does not usually connote this kind of malice or cruelty [...]. Instead, it suggests an insistent drive, to be fed or satisfied or noticed

[callithumpwhump]

Characters who become that of a cornered, feral animal in fight or flight. Characters that snarl and growl and bare their fangs, whos pupils dilate and shrink to slits, as their heart pounds like gunfire in their ears. Characters that crouch in an immediate defensive position should they need to bolt or pounce or attack. Characters who back into corners with their tail tucked between their legs and their hair standing on end, vision fuzzy and fists clenched. Characters that turn off all personality and thought when in danger and revert to that primal, traumatized, protective state.

[glitter-stained]

The voice in your head telling you the dog-motif is overdone is wrong. Do not listen to it. Give them a muzzle. Give them a choker or a collar. Chain them to a fence. Give them sharp canines. Give them pavlovian responses. Give them puppy dog eyes. Put them in a cage. Give them themes of obedience, loyalty and love intertwined unhealthily. Give them attachment issues. Make them bite. Give them themes of taming, domestication and ferality. Give them actual, literal, rabies. Kick them while they're down. Microchip them. Scratch their hair behind their ear. Call them a good boy/good girl/etc. and watch them perk up in response. Put them in a shock collar. Give them a metaphorical treat to reward good behaviour. Make them beg for scrapes of affection.

The possibilities are endless.
