I literally did follow you for bushmed. And correct opinions. Anyway 18. From the unusual otp ask game (for bushmed obv)

What are the small gestures with which your otp says 'I love you'? Are those daily rituals? Is the other aware of the intention behind those gestures?

SLKDFSDKJSDKLFSDLFSLDKFSJ YOU'RE WAY TOO KIND EHEHEHE ;-; and OMFG YIPPEEEE YEAS.....

What are the small gestures with which your otp says 'I love you'? Are those daily rituals? Is the other aware of the intention behind those gestures? so this is actually like... one of my favorite kinds of intimacy... like the kind that isn't like Grand Flourishes but smaller, more subtle things... i think once they're together they're definitely aware of them, but before they're dating.. no way! SKDFKSDKF... but that doesn't stop them from doing them!

i think sniper shows his love for medic this way by doing things like:

waking up early (he always does) and feeding archimedes/tending to medic's dule. medic makes his own hours and his sleep schedule can be all over the place, so this is one less thing medic has to worry about!

helping medic out by doing some minor stitch work or general aid for the other mercs on the field or post-battle. medic's work is never done, but if sniper can help lighten the load a little bit, well, he's glad to!

defending him on the field... obviously! of course this also just falls within the realm of his Job Description, but if he's feeling flirty he'll wait to get that crispy headshot so that their blood sprays all over medic (it makes him giggle every time)... <3 HEHE

fishing him out of his lab when he knows he's been in there for too long and inevitably fell asleep sitting at his desk... ;-; sniper scoops him up and carries him to his room and tucks him in, lets him sleep... sometimes he'll nap with him but he's always afraid of waking medic up!

and i think medic would do things for sniper like:

Silently identifying "whats wrong" with him and just "fix it" without Drawing Attention to it... for example, massaging sniper's arthritic hands... he's not going to be like "HEY is your arthritis flaring up!!!" because he knows that'll make sniper feel like he's Asking for Help or that he's doing it as a Doctor and not as a Lover. he'll just take sniper's hands in his own Gently and start rubbing them/massaging them... and sniper Instantly Relaxes and just starts purring because it feels so good.....!

making sniper eat breakfast with him in the morning.... i've talked about how i think they both have crappy eating habits and often forget to eat, but medic reminding sniper reminds him to also do it for himself! breakfast is the one meal of the day that medic always remembers to eat because it's the first of the day and it sticks with him the longest. feeding sniper off of his own plate and making sure he has something in his stomach for the long day they have ahead of them!!

making sure sniper knows he can always excuse himself and take time for himself if he needs (and giving him that "Out")... if they're out with the other mercs and medic knows sniper's probably kind of at the end of his Social Wire he'll say things like "sniper, can you go and get me [something from somewhere]"; not because he needs the item Whatsoever but so sniper can have a chance to take a breath of fresh air, have a cigarette if he needs it, take a walk etc... :) sniper realizes what medic's doing after the first couple times and it means so much to him. obviously medic wants sniper on his arm all the time!! but he also knows sniper's nature and knows sometimes he needs a break. nothing wrong with that of course!! ^v^

also, this one is one of my favorites and i could make a whole separate post about this but: they both love making each other comfortable in their own spaces. medic making the infirmary more comfortable for sniper when he knows he’s coming, sniper letting medic have a little drawer in his van for his clothes and a spare pair of his glasses (i wrote a lil oneshot about this here) … i think medic and sniper are both mercenaries that value their personal space and their Spaces Themselves as their sanctuaries, so both of them know how big of a deal it is to the other! they want each other to be comfortable in their Homes (medic’s lab is Just As Important as his room even though it’s not his home)!

all in all i think they both know these things come from a place of love, but they just silently affirm it. neither of them need a lot of Reassurance that the other loves them, but these little things just shows the other that they're here for each other! ^v^ <333
