How Slashers React To You Crying
Includes: Billy Loomis, Tiffany Valentine, Mark Hoffman, Jason Voorhees, Patrick Bateman, and Freddy Krueger
-Whenever you're feeling down, you know you can always turn to the brave Billy! He will face any beast for you, even if the beast is yourself.
-His first instinct is to cuddle you with so much affection you don't know what to do with yourself! He'll hold you close, arms caging you in so all you can do is focus on him.
-He'll pet your hair, combing his fingers through the strands. If you're sitting, he'll move you to his lap and cradle you in his arms.
-You can be sure he will pepper your face with kisses.
-He'll ask what's wrong. If you tell him, he'll listen carefully, comforting you while you do. If you aren't up for talking, he'll try to keep you occupied.
-Billy will sing to you. Just some soft melodies he knows, he'll sing softly in your ear, easing all your troubles. If it's not singing, Billy will talk to you. He'll tell you about his murders, about different ideas for movies, anything. He just wants to take your mind off all of your worries.
-All he wants is the best for you. He wants to make sure you're safe, you're happy and you're comfortable. He hates to see you upset. You're the most important person to him, and the last thing he wants is a frown on your face!
-He has a very hands-on approach, which may not always be effective. If you don't like him, all you have to do is tell him, and he'll back off. The same goes for if you want some alone time. He may not understand why but he'll definitely obey your requests.
-He'll do whatever it takes. No task is too big or small. Not when your happiness hangs in the balance.
-Tiffany’s a little heart, so she's much better at reading your needs. She can tell you're sad even when you're doing your best to hide it. She may not be great at reading and dealing with her own more unpleasant feelings but she certainly knows how to read you.
-The first thing she does is ask what's wrong. Why are you sad? Did something happen? What would you like?
-She knows that assuming what you want could only lead to more trouble and be counterproductive. So she wants you to be clear with her, even in tears. Do you need anything to drink? Do you want physical affection? Do you want a shoulder to cry on? An ear to listen? Some cookies? Alone time?
-She's the best at doing whatever she can to make you feel better because her instincts are always spot on when it comes to emotions.
-Desperately wants to know you're okay. You are her first priority, and although she wants to curl up to you and tell you everything is okay, she'll wait until you want it.
-If you do give her permission, she will bring you the comfiest spot in her room, with warm blankets, some wine, and just snuggle with you. Whether you only wish to cry, or maybe sit in silence, that's fine. If you want to talk, she'll listen carefully.
-She knows, at this stage, to treat you delicately. Hold you close, press gentle kisses to your face, neck and shoulders. She'll pet your hair, nuzzling her face into you, just to give you some peace.
-Will try to cheer you up with cheesy puns. Even if it makes you crack a smile, she feels satisfied. Your happiness is her priority and everything else will be at a standstill. She also won't let anyone else bother you while you're in the state.
-She might not like to deal with her own sadness but has no problems helping you with yours.
-If you come to Mark when you're down in the dumps he has two immediate thoughts:
-Second: Why are you coming to him with help for emotions?
-However, as soon as he gets past those two general thoughts, he's more willing to help you out, even if he had no idea what to do. Poor confused detective.
-He'll ask you a series of questions to try and get a better handle of your situation and what you would like him to do. Things like: do you want to be comforted? Would you like to talk about your problems? If you do, would you simply like him to listen or offer advice? How would you like to be comforted? Would you like physical affection?
-The list could go on. Once he gets a better sense of what's going on, he'll be happy to help in any way possible. You are the person he chose to give his "heart" to. Even if he's not 100% comfortable with the situation, your happiness takes precedence.
-If you want physical comfort, he'll lay with you on the bed, letting you curl up with him however you want. If you don't, he'll let you lay on the bed while he sits on the edge.
-His next objective is to distract you from the unpleasant thoughts that seem to plague you. If he can reach a book, he will open it and start reading to you. Just give you something to focus on, instead of letting your mind get overwhelmed with your own emotions.
-If he can't get to a book, he will simply tell you random bits of knowledge and tell you about some fascinating stuff he learned. It doesn't really concern him whether you're really listening or not, he's just trying to use his voice as something for you to keep your thoughts straight.
-The moment you want affection, he'll give it to you. He's usually not the most affectionate person in the world but that will change the moment he knows you're not in a good place and you need to be comforted.
-He'll kiss your head, running his hands up and down your sides and back. The moment he feels your body stop shaking and the sobs stop coming out, he'll let out a small sigh of relief and let a tiny smile cross his face.
-He'll do whatever you want so long as it makes you happier.
-He's a mix of both Tiffany and Mark. If you come to him while you're in distress or crying, his first reaction is to panic. Why are you crying?! What happened?! Did someone hurt you?! Are you upset with something he did?!
-He's not sure what to do at first. Do you want to be comforted? Or will touching you make you more upset? If he asks you what's wrong, will you be mad at him? Or do you want to talk about it? The last thing he wants is to stress you out more, and the possibility of that makes him itch with anxiety.
-However, once he figures out exactly what you want, he's really good at comforting you. If you want to be held, he'll plop you on his lap and embrace you. He'll tell you everything will be okay and press kisses to your head.
-If you want him to, he'll sing to you. He's not big on it like Billy but if it's for you, he'll have no problem singing even hum to calm you down. He'll sometimes just make cute little figures out of wood with his machete for you to look at to distract you from your sadness.
-The best out of the others in giving advice.
-If you're crying because someone made you cry, he will threaten to kill them. But, that's for another time. His main focus is on you... for now.
-He knows how it feels to be overwhelmed with unpleasant emotions, so he also knows how to handle them. He'll make sure you're comfortable and you feel safe, no matter what. And although he's not super physical, he will hug you and cuddle you and let you use him as a teddy bear.
-If you don't want to talk, and if you're feeling up to it, he'll put on some music or even give you a pair of headphones to block out everything else. Sounds and the outside world can be overwhelming, he knows that all too well, and music is a perfect distraction.
-He will try and make you laugh if you need cheering up. His dry, sarcastic humour will definitely crack you up if you're in the right mood for it. And seeing you laugh will make pride swell in his chest.
-Jason is great at dealing with negative emotions because he has to deal with his own all the time. So, he knows all the tricks.
-When coming to Patrick when you're upset, he'll act calm and collected, but inside, he's freaking out. What if he says something that makes you cry harder? He's not exactly well-known for being comforting.
-But, he'll sit you down, and if you allow it, place an arm over your shoulders, and try and talk to you. His first attempts are to calm you down, speaking softly and clearly to try and get you to stop crying.
-If it doesn't work, he'll begin to silently panic. So, he'll use his skill of being persuasive to his advantage. One way or another, he'll get you to talk or even just listen to his voice and calm down.
-He's less physical in his approach, for your comfort or for his own. He prefers to use words to help people- more specifically, you.
-To make you smile, he will tell you everything that he loves about you. He'll tell you how gorgeous you are, how he loves your voice, how wonderful your company is, how your thoughts mesmerize him. Not a single compliment that he tells you is false. It's genuine.
-If you do need physical affection, there will only be a little bit of hesitance. He'll let you do as you please, he just might not start it. He'll be a shoulder to cry on, a teddy bear to cuddle, a pillow to hug, anything and everything. It may be a little uncomfortable for him since he's not used to it, but he will gladly do it if it makes you feel better.
-He's great at distracting you. He'll tell you a bunch of random things, trying to draw your attention from what's going on inside your head. Things like his day, ranting, the weather, anything. Whatever pops into his mind.
-This man may not be super talented in the comforting department but he cares enough about you to try.
-Absolutely the worst person to help you when you're upset. Not for a lack of trying, believe me, but he just... isn't great at it.
-If you're not in the mood for it, his humour and antics can just make things worse. However, if you are the type of person who appreciates his humour, it can work.
-But if you're sad, you probably don't want to hear about Freddy fucking a tree or taking two dicks at once or something. Even if you find him amusing most of the time, these things generally don't help.
-If they don't work, Freddy is smart enough (shocking, I know) to see that his usual personality isn't helping. So, he'll change things around. His loud gestures and eccentric behaviour quiet down.
-His next instinct is to wrap his arms around you. He always finds physical affection comforting, so wouldn't you? Again, completely depends on the person and the mood. There is a very good chance it could work.
-But if affection isn't what you want, then he's lost. Comforting words and advice isn't really his strong suit. Panic sets in. What should he do?? What should he say?? He silently begs that someone- anyone- shows up to help.
-There is zero chance of him getting any better at words, but he will try. He'll tell you how gorgeous you are with tears and snot on your face, how great you are with dealing with him- just, anything nice he can think about you.
-His compliments are a bit weird, but he means well. And honestly, if he didn't love you, he probably wouldn't try.
