TF2? Don’t mind if I do!

Reblog if TF2

I want to see how many people are in this goddamn fandom

support class with a clingy and needy s/o? like always wants to be with them, sitting on their lap, holding hands, etc but also is careful not to annoy them too much

Support Classes with a Clingy S/O?

I hope I got the gist of this ask, I think I might have derailed just a bit but hopefully this is what you were looking for!

Medic:

Honestly, his experiments can certainly get loud at times, and the infirmary having as many doves in it as it does, having his future S/O there wasn’t quite an issue.

It was their constant need to be next to him that he was baffled by. Wielding sharp tools for surgery, he now had to be mindful that there was somebody directly beside him as they watched intently. Eventually, he tried finding ways to make them comfortable, seeing as they seemed to enjoy his enthusiasm-- (And having someone who was less terrified of him was a welcome change, if not a bit worrying for other reasons), it always seemed to bring his future S/O back beside him.

He’s learned that the doves can do most of the work for him, serving as feathery distractions for them to interact with, but he eventually learns that just being there and around for this person seems to keep them at ease. Why he seems to seek them out too when stressed he can’t quite understand…

Well, no matter! That wasn’t all there was to talk about.

Outside of the infirmary, he found that his S/O tended to stick behind him or close to his side, straying away from the others as if afraid. Surely they had their priorities backwards, but who is he to complain? Being the team Medic, he’s often blamed for the decisions and mistakes others have made, not being able to be everywhere at once. The trust his S/O put into him was a welcome change.

Having them in his lap and sort of keeping him away from his office to de-stress had to have been the biggest change to get used to. Despite this, he feels as if he gets more work done, as it gives him the chance to recharge and think of- then look forwards to all of the experiments he could perform and the wild changes he could make to his teammates. At first, he hadn’t been willing to, but now it seemed to be just another part of life.

Hey, while you’re with him, could you remind him to wash his gloves, though? He keeps staining your shirt with blood.

Sniper:

Sniper, being somebody who’s always worked alone, even whilst in a team environment, was baffled by his S/O at first. 

Why wouldn’t he be? He’s been isolated all these years as he silently took headshots from across the map, and now you’ve waltzed up and into his life without warning.

He certainly doesn’t mind it after a week or two, but at first he’s a bit put off by it. He’s not used to the constant need for contact, social interaction, but the sweet conversations you two have are more than enough to convince him to stay. Eventually getting to know each other better, he learns to love the attention.

Sometimes he’ll snipe with you in his lap, though it has to be if he knows he won’t be approached much that game, or if he’s not trying out a new position to snipe from.

Funnily enough, with you approaching him as much as you do, it becomes more difficult for Spy to creep up behind him with a second pair of eyes sweeping the room and shifting a man with tunnel vision into a much more active, aware man.

When he can’t be there, he’ll always spend extra time after battle with his S/O, sitting in silence while doing something like sharpening his kukri, drinking homemade tea or cider, polishing his boots, or just being wrapped up under a blanket in the van.

Spy:

Spy, at first, was very much driven away by the forwardness of their S/O. But as time went on, and they continued to stay close to him, he began to wonder why it was that his S/O trusted him so much.

So, giving it a shot, he, in private mind you, allows his S/O to sit beside him? Yes, that would do. Perhaps it would satiate their constant nagging for attention. Yet oddly enough, whenever he seemed to show frustration over it- a break in his character, they’d quiet down and frown, immediately backing off.

This respect of space strengthened his trust in you. After all, one must always exercise extreme caution around Spy, and the lack of it had begun to wear him down. But when it became clear you had no intention of annoying him, respecting his boundaries and stepping away when need be, it allowed him to think more of what you meant to him.

He still freezes up in public at times when his S/O decides to hold his hand. Walking closely beside him was one thing, but hand holding seemed so… Unnatural, to him. 

Yet, he holds onto their hand anyway! No matter what looks it may garner him, a steely glare is usually enough to push back bystanders. He will protect you, knowing that while you may be misguided in who you choose to trust, that he’ll pay back simple kindness with fierce loyalty.

The longer the two of you spend together, the less space tends to matter. He’ll allow his S/O to sit in his lap so long as they don’t ruin his suit, normally he tends to wear the button up with the sleeves rolled up beneath it instead whilst on his own anyway. Still, it amuses him seeing his S/O resting against his chest, almost catlike in their contentment to stay there. Why they chose a Spy of all people, he’s yet to wrap his head around that one.

Can you write how spy, demo, medic are when they are jealous? (Separate) (tf2 gender neutral s/o fluff)

I think you sent in the request twice, I do tend to see asks though I saw one in there I almost definitely missed—either way; if it was you please don’t try and send in duplicate requests to get them filled! Not mad, just letting people know for future reference. ^^

To be fair, I just noticed that the other one asked for all support classes! So once again, sorry if it was just a case of two people sending in similar asks.

Demo, Medic, and Spy when Jealous:

Demo:

Demo honestly isn’t a jealous person in general!

He’s pretty chill and understanding, not to mention incredibly loyal to friends, family, and a possible S/O.

However, if he’s got a mad headache, or if he’s sick or unwell, he’ll definitely unknowingly become jealous if his S/O is taking care of anyone else.

His S/O is absolutely taking great care of him while he’s sick, but the second they start talking to somebody else, assuming he’s sick enough to be out of it, would assume he’s been forgotten.

It’s mostly a silly thing, though. He doesn’t get mad, he just grumbles a bit at whoever is taking the attention of his S/O away from him.

(This is also because he’s like a cat, and his S/O has been petting his hair for a good while, but don’t tell that to anyone else.)

Medic:

If Medic is jealous, he hardly ever realizes it. He’s always a bit too hung up on his experiments, thoughts and ideas to really entertain the idea of his feelings getting mixed up.

Surely he’d notice them, but would probably chalk it up to being tired or overworked. He’ll do his best to spend more time with his S/O during times like these.

He’ll find he’s not enjoying himself if they’re at a bar or anywhere social where his S/O is actively interacting with too many people.

Not because he’s angry that they’re enjoying themselves; but because he begins to think that he’s not doing enough.

Seeing as he’s often in his office or in the infirmary performing surgeries, he admits to himself that he probably doesn’t spend as much time with his S/O as he ought to. They’re fully within their right to want to be with other people.

He doesn’t assume they want to leave him behind, though. It’s more of a self reflection moment. The more attention he gives his S/O, the more he’ll receive in return.

Other folks finally end up noticing Medic when he puts his head over their shoulder with a sharp grin, swinging over to their side of the conversation. A clear reminder that they’re taken, and a few of the ones that initially appeared to not have bad intent back off.

The rest of the night is spent with the real new friends.

Spy:

Now spy? He’s smart. He has reason. But the second he begins to doubt that his S/O has faith in him or notices that they’re enjoying the presence of somebody other than him, all reason drops out of the window.

His mind goes into overdrive. Scouring his memories for every single mention of things they like or love most. Drop money on something cool or expensive. Buy a bouquet of flowers. Arrange a fancy dinner or a date.

If he ever suspects somebody to be trying to take his S/O away from him, (and yes, he does trust his S/O and knows that they love him, he’s just dramatic), then he becomes extremely open and dramatic in PDA.

Subtlety is the way of the Spy, and Spy is not subtle at all.

Bring them into a slow dance, bring them into a kiss, keep their arms interlocked, say something romantic in French, anything he knows they’re okay with.

It’s a way of showing himself and others that this person is undoubtedly his. He knows it’s ridiculous, but as somebody with trust issues, it’s his one way of proving to himself and his S/O that his trust runs deeply enough to do something like that.

His S/O may not have the same issues with trusting other people as he does, but they should understand that his displays of affection are a way of confirming that yes, this is real, no, he isn’t lying about any of this, and nothing could come between them.

This one didn’t quite turn out the way I was expecting, so hopefully this fits the prompt well enough! I honestly just think trust is a big factor in relationships. :]

Quick Medic HCS

Inspired by a string of doveposts from medicsmenageries;

Ludwig names all of his doves.

The mercs have tried, and failed, to count how many he owns. 

Not even Heavy knows, and he’s the only one allowed to pet the birds.

As mentioned in a previous post, this man can disney-princess style call his babies to his very whim, it’s not unusual to think they bring him his coat in the mornings while he makes coffee.

He just really loves his doves okay? 

I’d suggest you read the tags from the op of this one!

This dynamic is honestly a favorite of mine as well. Especially when you take into account that Heavy is… Naturally quiet? He can be loud, but I think that silent trust is what really shows their bond the clearest. If they trust each other that deeply, then I don’t think they’d be too nervous about being together.

Of course, I also love the other dynamics, though. Honestly? Heavymedic is just an A++ ship all around.

my favorite heavymedic dynamic is them just like… falling into place next to each other. nothing dramatic or emotional or anything, there’s no clear starting point where something changes in their relationship from Friends to Dating. like everything between them goes unsaid but it’s also undeniably strong. nobody asks questions about it. it’s just heavy and medic, and medic and heavy, and that’s how it is and how it is meant to be. guys bein dudes
