I understand Tanguish now. My partner fights as her career and I just started going to her matches and I'm like here let me help you put your gear on let me bring you your water let me put bandaids on you. I know you are great at what you do but that also gets you hurt so let me do what I can where I can to keep you safe.
That is absolutely amazing! Every fighter needs a Tanguish [and every partner needs someone who will take care of them, and fuss after their well-being a bit, so they take care of themselves.]
Not nearly as fraught as a professional fighter, but my partner does injure himself at work frequently [works with heavy machinery] and my roommate injures herself quite frequently [works with large animals] and the times I want to throttle them for not taking care of themselves and the times I want to do as much as I can to make the healing easier overlap, so vastly.
To love is to care.
