The first night with the duke

The end...?

OOC

I have a headcanon that Ripley loves thunderstorms and she'll sit and watch it out a window with either a cup of coffee or Jonesy (if she can catch him) or maybe even Hicks. She finds the rain soothing, I would think, and it helps to put her mind at ease.

❤ ♆ ♡

❤ : Describe a physical action that shows complete trust.

A genuine smile. In the movies Ripley isn’t show smiling at people she doesn’t trust (i.e. Burke) and especially after the events of the Nostromo. She hardly smiles at all save for a few like Hicks, Newt, Bishop at the end of Aliens, and Clemens from Alien 3. Therfore getting a genuine smile from Ripley means your in her good graces.

♆ : Are they prone to violent outbursts or thoughts?

Only when prompted, aggravated, or having what she has to say completely disregarded like the Company execs did in Aliens. As well as having violent nightmares or flashbacks due to her PTSD.

♡ : Is there a certain scent that brings about nostalgia? If so, describe a memory this scent brings back.

Yes, the smell of coolant fog. It brings back memories of the Nostromo when everything was still going well.
