Here's my prompt: Hange comforting reader who's brokenheart, lonely and all (platonic is okay ofc, I specified broken heart because I am, but not currently looking for a relationship)
Hi nym thank you for my first ever prompt on tumblr!
Pairing:-NymXPlatonic!Hange Zöe
Trigger warnings?:- talks of death
The sun was setting on another day and the scouting regiment was back from yet another expedition.
As usual many new recruits were injured ans many more were lost,adding to the long list if names of those who had already given their lives in the name of freedom.
But one particular young scout seemed to be more shaken up than most,her name was Nym and she was clearly taking that day’s loses harder than most.
She sat down to take off her odm gear and rest for the day when section commander hange zöe plopped down beside her.
“Hey there cadet!how are ya doin?”commander zöe asked in a voice that Nym felt was too cheery for that evening.or rather too cheery for someone in the survey corps all together.
Nym looked up at her superior and didnt fail to notice the sadness that lay deep within the commanders eyes.
“Commander hange,”she replied,”im alright.thank you for asking”she said with an awkward half smile.
At this hange removed their goggles and placed them on the top of their head before looking the young scout in her eyes and continuing.
“You sure cadet?You looked a little rough out there,careless even.”they said in a caring yet motherly tone.
“It’s nothing commander,I’m fine I promise”
Hange’s gaze turned serious.
“Nothing doesn’t make one of my best scouts act like a careless newbie,Nym”
Nym eyed the ground nervously,she weighed her options,should she tell her superior what was bothering her and risk being seen as weak or should she tell them anyway and get it off her chest?
After a second she closed her eyes and took a deep breath as a single tear rolled down her cheek.
“Why do the titans exist?why are they alive and why do they keep killing us?when will it end?when will we truly win?we lose so many scouts everyday and I’m so sick of it.sick of seeing my comrades,my friends die at the hands of those monsters!”she rambled on.
But Hange heard and understood every single word.Never had they ever felt more in tune with one of their cadets,for every single thing that Nym had just said,they had thought to themselves numerous times before.
“Ive lost so many friends,and it breaks my heart,they believed in something greater,something more than life within these walls,and their hopes were rewarded with nothing but death.i feel so...so alone Hange.and im just.so.tired of it.”Nym finished.
At this Hange wrapped their arms around her and enveloped her in the biggest,warmest most comforting hug Nym had experienced in a while.and this made her sob silently.
“I’m sorry Nym,I’m sorry you had to go through that and I’m mostly sorry about the fact that i cant guarantee that it wont happen again.but no matter what,i promise to protect you to the best of my abilities.i cant promise you that you wont have to watch death taking your comrades away but i promise to keep you safe from his grasp.Nym i swear with all my heart that i will do anything in my power to keep you safe,and thats a promise i intend to honour until my dying breath”they said while stroking their young friend’s hair in an attempt to calm and console her.
Nym looked up at them and smiled a smile which was filled with gratitude respect and adoration for her superior.
Hange seeing this gave her one last kiss on the forehead and helped Nym in talking off her ODM gear.
Once they were done,hange placed their goggles back on their eyes and wrapped and arm around their young companion’s shoulders.
“ now come on cadet,lets get you all cleaned up,its almost dinner time”
“Thank you hange,it really means a lot.” Said nym.
“ always,and anytime dear.ill be here for you no matter what”replied the commander. And with that they walked off to get ready for supper.
