Sad otp meme with Warren + reader

alexsunmners:

who gets overwhelmed by small acts of
kindness?

You do, though it’s not so much overwhelmed as deeply touched, because you know Warren isn’t good at talking about his feelings or domestic life, so when he does something small and mostly inconsequential for you, you practically light up. 

who flinches at sudden movements?

Warren does. His time fighting for Caliban, and then the fight with Apocalypse left him with PTSD and he instinctively shies away from roaring crowds because it reminds him of the cage. 

who is most confused as to why their S.O.
is still with them?

Both of you. Warren is so attractive, and he comes off so confident and flirtatious and it’s not hard for you to think that he could easily be with someone else, someone prettier or more confident. On the other hand, Warren finds it hard to understand why someone as good and happy and kind could want to be with someone as damaged and fucked up as him. 

who has to constantly check their S.O.
still loves them?

Both of you check in all the time. When you’re out together, you’ll grab his hand and bring it to your lips and whisper ‘I love you’ against it. At home, if you’re baking, he’ll steal some of the cookie dough and kiss your temple and say ‘I love you and your food’. It’s a part of your routine, and neither of you really thinks of it as out of the ordinary. 

who says the other/s would be better off
with someone else?

Warren does, when he’s feeling particularly shitty about himself. ‘I’m no good for you, babygirl,’ he’ll mutter, his head in his hands. You gently tug his head up to look at you and you kiss him softly. ‘You’re everything good for me, okay? I don’t want anyone but you.’

who gets surprised when they are given
gifts?

Warren does, because he’s not used to anyone spending time on him, let alone money, and when you get him something because you saw it and thought of him, he gets so, so happy and a little emotional about it. 

who is most likely to break down on the
other and how does their S.O. attempt to calm them down?

Warren is, though he bottles up his feelings so much that it rarely happens. When it does, you just let him lie with his head in your lap while you stroke his hair and his wings gently and hum softly to him till he’s calmed down. 

who is most self conscious in public?

You are. Warren is so imposing and attractive and attention catching, and you can feel insignificant and unappealing next to him, but he always makes sure to shower you with affection and compliments, because he’s convinced you’re the most beautiful, breathtaking person in the world and he hates that you don’t feel the same about yourself. 

who is more likely to apologize a million
time for a tiny mistake?

Neither of you really over apologizes for things, though sometimes Warren beats himself up internally over small things. 

who admits they’re scared only when they
think their S.O. is asleep and how does the other react?

You do, because you don’t know how to put your fears into words and you hate being in-eloquent, so when he’s asleep, you’ll whisper how you’re scared about the future of mutants and that you’re never going to accomplish anything of any actual worth. Warren immediately pulls you into his chest, cocooning you in his wings and kissing you tenderly, whispering that you’re already so much more accomplished than he is and that he’s always going to be there to protect you. 

who never thinks they’re good enough for
the other?

Warren does, because he’s convinced that he’s several thousand kinds of fucked up, and he’s done so many awful things in his past, and you’re so good and light and full of happiness and kindness and he knows he doesn’t deserve you but he’s a selfish man so he’ll take what he gets without protesting.

who takes a bullet for the other

Warren would take a bullet for you in a second if the situation arose.
