Hi! Can i request a Scenario with Garou with his s/o? Like, he discovers she has the power to take the life away of living things. Like how would he react?
“Ehrm…what the fuck.” GAROU acknowledges that he’s not very good with words. It always comes out a bit too rough or too inconsiderate sometimes for him. Going round about with his words never help him with anything, so he chooses the most straightforward method when it comes to executing his words to avoid confusion.
But today, even blunt words fail him. And if he’s honest, words fail him in general. Because the revelation of the fact his partner just drains the life out of a monster who tried to jump on them out of nowhere, is somewhat terrifying for him.
“Babe, what the fuck.” He says it again, this time louder than the previous one. But it was never a question to begin with, he knows exactly what happened and there is no need for asking. He just saw that with his two bare eyes and his fists still hold up in an offensive position from the previous attack. The shock is still registering into his system, as it seems.
They stare back at him for a quiet moment, two blinks of their eyes passed by before they come up with an answer for him. And it’s nowhere near an explanation. “Occupational hazard?”
“That didn’t explain shit.” He deadpans after finding himself relaxed in their presence again and reverting back to his normal stance. Garou doesn’t even understand what he was worried about. It’s his lover, he shouldn’t stress over it. Then again, his shoulders still feel a bit tense.
“Oops?” They shrug, seemingly too indifferent for the current situation.
Garou crosses his arms, reminding himself that he’s the better man here. Even if there’s an argument to break out, it’s nowhere near his favour. But he reminds himself that they wouldn’t hurt him, just as he wouldn’t hurt them. “Why didn’t you tell me?”
“Sorry.” They instinctively apologise for that, even if it’s not their fault. He knows they shouldn’t and needn’t, but he appreciates the gesture.
The silence continues between the two of them for a brief moment before they finally spit out the answer. “It never really crosses my mind.”
“Something this big never crosses your mind?” He growls a bit, feeling somewhat betrayed for them to not telling him everything. But it’s not their fault, he tells himself again. It’s nobody’s fault.
They are a bit taken back his sudden aggressiveness, unable to do anything but grin meekly. “Look, I’m really sorry, babe. It’s just that, I never use it much anyway.” And that gains a raising eyebrow from Garou, there’s even more mixed emotions in his eyes after hearing their words. What they said isn’t wrong, considering that this is the first time he has seen them with it.
“Power corrupts, so I don’t want to abuse it.” They take a sharp inhalation of breaths before continuing again. “I have enough hassle in my daily life already, I don’t need to deal with even responsibility that might tag along if I use my…ability too much.”
An idea sparks in his mind after hearing them saying their bits. But something stops those thoughts from getting vocalised, as those words he almost says are stopped dead at his throat.
“I…see.” He exhales a sigh of relief, not noticing he was holding back his breaths while they were talking. He’s rather quick to forgive considering the stare he gives them earlier is a bit too harsh, and as it seems, it surprises them as much as it does to him.
“So, you’re fine with it?” They ask again just to confirm, but he sees little need in that. The answer is obvious, it’s always obvious between the two of them, there’s little need for communication when an understanding can be reached without words.
“Well, damn, you already accepted me for who I am. I might as well do the same.” If he’s saying the truth, he’s indifferent with the whole damn thing. But for the sake of their relationship, he will just look away.
“Really?” They ask in bewilderment, only to receive a scold from him, following with a side-looped smile from him. Though his gaze is a tad bit too intimidating for the usual playfulness, the face that he ruffles their hair before they even have a chance to understand what’s going on is enough to reassure them.
And even if there’s no word exchanged between them afterwards, the grin on their faces are enough for mutual understanding between them.
