What do you think the C4 characters are like in the afterglow?
Hal- Goes into Aftercare Mode™️ immediately. Do you need snacks? Water? Some kind of massage? He's up for anything and more than willing to provide (he won't say no to anything you wish to give him, either!)
Julien- Stays hugging against you for a bit before pulling away to admire you in this state, drawing little patterns on your chest with the tip of his finger and humming to himself. Unless, of course, he's been Put Through It, then you're the one who has to hold him while he shivers against your embrace, thanking you in sylvan under his breath
Tyranny- Immediately turns the situation into something like a slumber party, wants to hear everything about the encounter from your perspective, what it felt like to have her, if anything was particularly good, so on and so forth
Vaelus- Chooses this moment to admire you quietly, looking over your resting body with an air of reverence as she commits everything to memory
Kattigan- If you're lucky and he doesn't pass out immediately, he'll offer you a drink of something while caressing your hair and cheek. Then he'll hold you close, burying himself in your scent before he gets the ability to say something he knows he'll regret later
Thaisha- Has a big jug of water/juice/whatever she insists on sharing, neither of you are getting dehydrated on her watch. After that she'll want to cuddle and Not Let Go, which either leads to round two, or the two of you talking each other's ears off until you pass out still holding one another
Wicander- Passes out immediately after finishing, regardless of whether you got anything out of the experience... yeah sorry bro tuckered tf Out (he does feel terrible about it later but gods, he can't help it)
Occtis- This dweeb sorry has a whole fuckass notepad with a little survey he'll want you to fill out, it's sort of like with Tyranny but way more clinical and analytical. He'll damn near look more excited about this than the act itself too, nevermind the fact that he was whimpering and biting his lip underneath you less than 20 minutes ago
Murray- Will ask to go again in fifteen minutes, no matter what. Her stamina is fucking insane idk what to tell you. If not, she does whatever she can to make you both comfortable, administering little ointments and potions to help with any possible aches and/or fatigue
Thimble- Swears she's ready to go again, seriously, just let her close her eyes for thirty seconds, okay? She's a hardened warrior, this is nothing for her! (She passes out and sleeps through the whole night with the cutest relaxed expression on her face)
Bolaire- Doesn't know what "afterglow" is. Looks it up and has a sensible chuckle.
Teor- Purrs. So many purrs. Loud asf too like a leafblower, right in your ear. He's curled himself around your entire body like a dragon with a hoard and you're not getting out of there until he comes back online
Azune- He gets weirdly distant and dissociative, and you'll need to hold him close until he comes back from wherever he went. After that he's still quiet, not really sure what to do or say during such an intimate moment. He'll just lay there, let himself be in your company and hope to the heavens that it's enough
