How would Reinhardt, 76, and Reaper react/behave to a short s/o? (short as in 5'2" and under)
You are a beautiful person and I love you. Never change. (Can you tell I’m short and this is self indulgent? Cause it is.)
His massive hands like to cradle their smol ones like the most precious of treasures
Is always careful around them, afraid his massive bulk will harm his delicate s/o in some way
When his s/o insists they can handle something or do a difficult/dangerous task on their own you KNOW he fusses and is always hovering, always waiting to jump in and take a blow or save the day
Can easily carry them around in the curve of just one arm (he uses the other to hold their hand or caress their face. also good to fend off danger)
If he had his way they would never have to walk again. He loves carrying them around, whether it be in his arms, on his back, or perched on his shoulder
Will wax poetics about them at any given opportunity. He carries pictures of them on his person at all times. Slay me.
Comes up with all the sappy old school nicknames for them, i.e. Doll, Munchkin, Dear Heart, Sweetling, etc
Almost always has an arm around their shoulders when his s/o is within reach
Ruffles their hair in passing
Is always looking for an opportunity to swoop in and lift them up so they can reach something (or just so he can spin them around cause he’s sappy trash)
When they have a moment alone he loves to hold them against his chest, arms wrapped around them tight, and head stooped low to look down at them/kiss their head
Will defend them to the death if someone uses their height as an insult
Loves seeing them in his clothes because it’s hella endearing
Is the huge looming shadow that follows in their wake and will kill a man for touching them
Makes jabs about their height but there’s no heat behind them and he often smiles at their reaction
Never leaves their side during battle, or at least always has them in his line of sight so he can teleport to them at a moment’s notice
Surprisingly possessive, prone to hold them to his chest and growl if anyone tries to take his s/o’s attention away from him
They’re the one positive thing in his life, and he’ll be damned if anything ever happens to them
Will always be there to help them reach something with a fond eye roll and a huff of false complaint
Can go from punching someone in the face to patting his s/o’s head in .05 seconds, hot damn
