"Time to sleep, or at least try.

arent yuo pissed that niner stole hoffmann from you?

[[Answering this IC and OOC for reasons I'll explain below.]] 

IC: "Umm... there was never anything to steal from me, I don't own the man, we're friends and that's it. I think you're seeing something here that isn't actually real..." 

OOC: 

[[Anon, clearly you feel... strongly about this, since you sent it to me four times when I didn't respond right away - thanks Tumblr for that one. Either that or four people decided to send me the same damn thing. 

There has never been a 'relationship' between Reaper and Hoffman. Hoff!Mun and I know that they're friends, and yes, Reaper carries a torch for Hoffman something fierce... But that doesn't mean anything is ever going to come of it, nor that Hoffman is obligated to love him back. 

Reaper has a long-running trend of falling in love with the unattainable. That's part of who the character is. I didn't expect the trend to continue here, but I'm pleasantly surprised that it did. Reaper is one of those guys who falls into the very real, very common thing that happens in the real world: Sometimes the person you love doesn't love you back. 

So, I hope that cleared shit up for you? Look I ship characters as much as the next person, but poking the Muse like that, that many times, over something that has never happened is a little weird.]]

Te lovers and the hermit

The Lovers"The qualities of my ideal partner? A fucked up sense of humor, a wicked laugh, the ability to carry on an interesting conversation, strong enough to keep up with me - take that as you will. "Fiery enough that they'll stick to their guns and argue with me if they feel strongly about something, but still able to see reason. "Stubborn enough to make my ass see reason, and patient enough to pull me out of the depressing and dark as fuck moods that I get into sometimes - or at least to sit with me if I fall down the spiral and pull me out of the shadows again. "Oh yeah, and able to break through to me when I've got my head up my ass without talking down to me or making me feel like they're pandering to me. That's a fuckin big one..."Oh, yeah, and to be so inclined. Problem is all the guys I find that hit those qualities, plus are as physically fit as I am, tend to be straight. I don't go for bears so I'm kind of screwed."

The Hermit"Could I cope with living alone? Honestly? Yeah. Because I've always been alone. Doesn't matter how many people are around me - hell I  grew up the oldest of seven kids, and I was still always alone. "Just something about me drives a lot of people away, so I've gotten used to being alone in a crowded room. "Actually being alone would probably be a relief."

"You like Hoffman because he's the kind of guy you know will never want to be with you because you like sabotaging yourself."

"Hey now, that's fuckin' uncalled for! I don't sabotage myself, I can't fuckin' help who I fall for - can you!? You better change that song and dance routine of yours real fast there, Grey-Face, before I teach you why all my former recruits are so damn scared of me still!"
