hey look I'm stealing memes again

Here’s how it works.
 
◦ Pick 3 characters from my muse list, or from the canon character list below.
◦ Now pick 3 prompts from the table to go with each character.
◦ I will write three snippets, based around your picks.
 
If you pick from the muse list, you can add one or two others to the prompt.
(ex. My muse+your muse. My muse+your muse 1+your muse 2. My muse 1+my muse 2+my muse 3. Etc.)
If you picked from the canon list, you can request one canonmate.
 
You can also add a genre/tone and rating, if you prefer.

I dun care about canon/character lists, just pick a fandom that you and I share from...whatever. :V

HEY. HEY, GALE. WRITE ABOUT RICK NOW. UM... JUST PICK A RANDOM NUMBER. 8|

[northwind-gale.livejournal.com]

[Rick, 23/26-ish, 35]

It always cuts Rick to the core whenever he sees Bolger in one of his fits. He doesn't understand why, really, just only that it's because his boss is supposed to be strong and fierce, like he is in his negotiations. It's hard to think that whatever he is in the outside world is just a front.

And part of Rick actually feels a little triumphant. This way, he's of use. Instead of just meekly standing behind him and holding his files, chiming in, he's here lending support. Emotional support. Whether it's stroking his hair as Bolger vomits into a toilet during the last of his hangover, or just sitting on the edge of his bed and murmuring nonsense words to get him to sleep so that he stops being emotionally drunk...or even threatening to lockdown that entire shelf of fine wines that he knows is there for more than just show...he gets to mother him. See him and comfort him in his darkest moments so he can stand strong again.

And yet there's a current of something else in his mothering. Something determined, more fierce than his usual self.

Because he knows that there's someone, or something, that made Bolger like this before. Someone that did this before him. And they left their mark. Something that Rick won't be able to smooth over or heal or replace. And it's infuriating, in a way.

But in the end, it's just one more thing to encourage him to redouble his efforts, to try. Because it's all he can do.

Because he wants to, and trying to make Bolger see that he's not looking for any benefit out of it is part of the challenge.

You're supposed to be sleeping! Also, bluh, Rick is precious forever. I'm suddenly imagining that if he ever met Pearson (you know, if Pearson somehow inexplicably came back from the dead or something) he'd punch him in the face. And then fret about Bolger leaving him. And then they'd become a very awkward threesome with a lot of issues. It would be magical.
