#I may have a rodigor bias but even then I just feel like if its rodion doing it

[foxtrot-broadcasts]

Late night rambling about g-corp Gregor hurt/comfort don’t mind me- (prolly don’t need to spoil for canto 1 (and very mild 2&3???) spoilers, but I sure as heck ain’t taking chances. Also yeah body horror, bug, and war talk ahead)

Look at that man and tell me he ISNT touch starved af. I can feel it in my bones.

Between Hermann not exactly being ma of the year, war being an absolute bitch, as well as the buggy features tend to be off putting to people, I’m willing to bet that he hasn’t received a good hug in a long while. I like to think that it sorta stretches between all 3 ids, but g corp’s case is PARTICULARLY bad because he has the displeasure of still being in the smoke wars. This version will tell you he’s fine and doesn’t necessarily need special treatment or attention like a good soldier, but so much as a gentle pat on the back or head and you will clearly see him blue screen for a second. Lord knows how much he would love to experience it again, but he also knows how much he ain’t exactly ready to express that.

With all that said, I think that would be extra particularly sweet if Rodya were to actually prompt him to give him a hug. Like, not even as a shipping sorta sense. Out of all the company, she’s arguably the most personable next to Gregor and is actually willing to give comfort and support if needed if her treatment of Sinclair in Canto 2 & 3 are to be trusted. Like sure, in game dialogue says that Rodya said some unsavory things about this version of bug man, but the idea that in a quiet enough moment where they’re just together with not much, Rodya being the one to bring up the fact that he’s always keeping up this tense Grade-A soldier act. The idea of her saying how he can let himself rest for a second, and just let himself go. It doesn’t get through to him at first, but in an act to show him, despite all her previous comments

Wordlessly opens her arms towards him.

He scans her up and down, still not sure what it means yet, and she just says simply “Well?” No teasing, no snark, just plain and simple. Finally taking the hint, he comes up to her awkwardly and wraps his elongated arms around her. She won’t lie and say that it doesn’t make her at least a little bit freaked out by it all, but she can tell that he probably needs this more than whatever feelings she may have bubbling in her mind, and pats little circles between his twitchy wings. She feels that he isn’t exactly moving much, but after a few moments

She can feel him clinging onto her more than ever, burying himself into the hug.
