𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐓𝐘𝐏𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄 𝐃𝐎 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐎𝐃𝐘   ?  
Ray:
love as tenderness
[ love as gentleness after a lifetime of cruelty ]
when ocean vuong said "sometimes being offered tenderness feels like the very proof that you've been ruined" and when pablo neruda said "like a jar you housed the infinite tenderness and the infinite oblivion shattered you like a jar" and when anais mitchell wrote "all i've ever known is how to hold my own, and now i wanna hold you, too”

love as a choice
[ love is beautiful because it's built deliberately ]
when casey mcquinston wrote "that's the choice. i love him, with all that, because of all that, on purpose. i love him on purpose" and when jenny slate tweeted "i just want someone to grab my little face and scream on purpose, on purpose i am going to care about you" and when jodi picoult wrote "after fifteen years, love isn't just a feeling. it's a choice" and when the good place said "if soulmates do exist, they're not found they're made"
Conrad:
love as violence
[ love as bloodshed, crimson as a knife slipped between your ribs ]
when ocean vuong said "to arrive at love, then, is to arrive through obliteration" and when franz kafka said "you are the knife i turn inside myself; that is love" and when ada limon said "how do you love? like a fist. like a knife" and when richard siken said "sorry about the blood in your mouth. i wish it was mine"

[ love as a luminous force—warm, radiant, and golden ]
when mary oliver wrote "light of the world hold me” and when charles bukowski said “I look at her and light goes all through me” and when david viscott said “to love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides”and when e. e. cummings said “lovers alone wear sunlight”

I’m considering scrapping two of my OC sideblogs (@talons-living-storm and @viperintheshadows) since there hasn’t been any activity there in a long time and it’s kind of lessened my muse for Conrad and Kashif.
I’m also planning to drop my BOB blog (@big-b0t-b0b) because I haven’t been ‘feeling’ BOB lately. I’m planning to do the same thing I did with another fandom I RP in and replace him with another canon muse. I just don’t know who yet.

❝ you could’ve helped yourself if you fought back . ❞
"It's not exactly easy t' fight off 5 guys at once, mate..." Conrad grumbled.

“You can stay, but for no more than two nights.” //for Conrad if it's not a problem! Btw hi!
That had taken the mercenary by surprise. Hospitality was not something he was used to...and certainly not something he knew how to properly react to.
But he was injured, and this young lady had been the one to find him. Conrad was never one to pass on anything that made his life easier.
"Uh...thanks." He responded after a moment, unsure of what to say. "Two nights, huh? Don't worry, I'll probably be back on the road again by then."

Werewolf!Conrad Open Starter
It was hard to tell if it was a lack of understanding for private property or a lack of respect for it, but whichever it was it was clear Conrad did not have it.
The werewolf had settled on a nice front yard belonging to…someone. He didn’t really care. It was nice and the grass was soft and the moonlight was hitting him nicely. His ears flicked for a bit to listen for anyone, before the were shrugged and flopped onto the ground, blocking the way to the front door of the house that was sitting on the yard. He quickly dozed off, snoring loudly as one of his legs kicked softly in the air.
Whoever this house belonged to would come home to the sight of a large black-furred wolf…creature sprawled out, out cold in front of their house.

Conrad Open Starter
The Talon mercenary had a grin of confidence on his face, leaning back in his chair with his legs propped up on the table he and the one he’d been meeting with shared. A coin was casually flipped through his fingers as he glanced up at the other.
“So...you wanna try buyin’ me off from Talon, are ya?” The Brit asked, interested. “Alright, I’ll hear you out. What’s your offer?”

How are the muses' relationships with their fathers?
Ray - Obviously, Ray and Riley get along very well. Riley does feel immense guilt for the years he was unable to be in Ray’s life and the things his son went through, but it’s clear Ray doesn’t hold anything against him for it.
Matias - Matias and his father loathe each other. His father sees Matias as an unruly disappointment and Matias sees his father as an oppressive control freak. They haven’t spoken in almost 15 years..
Conrad - Conrad’s father is deceased but it’s clear he cared a lot about him, even if he doesn’t show it openly now. Conrad’s drive for money was started by him wanting to support his homeless family.
Riley - Riley’s father became a reclusive shell after losing his wife and other family members in a Talon attack as well as having his son become a prisoner of theirs. They don’t get to see each other much, but they get along well enough to check in on each other.
Tobias - Tobias’ father is the only family member who still speaks to him and hasn’t disowned him, though it’s out of pity instead of love. Tobias tolerates his father, but doesn’t exactly like him.

Which Animal Is Your Familiar?
Ray:
Horse
ESFJ: Due to their dependable nature, their love of harmony, and their tendency to learn from their past mistakes, horses are said to possess the ESFJ personality type. 
Horses can display traits that qualify them as social, aloof, fearful, and challenging. They are sensitive to criticism and hate being ignored. That's why no one should say anything behind the horse's back; its sense of hearing is fiercely acute and its temper carries quite a kick.
Getting this result means you respect authority (mostly) and like to see the people around you happy. The horse is a great guide that will assist you to the very end.
Matias
Crow
ISTJ: reserved, will-full, rational, playful. Crows are excellent problem-solvers and masters with tools. Some crows can form probes and hooks from sticks and leaf stems to poke into the crowns of palm trees. Others gather nuts from trees and place them on the street for cars to crack open. When a crow dies, the other crows will gather around the crow to find out what killed the member. Then, they will band together and chase predators down in a behavior called “mobbing.” Getting this result means you have a friend with a keen eye who watches from afar. While not a constant companion, you know that she isn't far away, probably watching on as you go about your day. She would remember everything that happens and if anyone crossed you...there would most certainly be a mobbing.
Conrad
Wolf
INFJ: The Wolf has a lot of symbols; guardianship, loyalty, spirit. They're ambitious and never shy from hard-work. They are complex creatures that are devoted to family. When they mate they mate for life, and may even sacrifice themselves for their family unit!
Wolves can eat a huge amount, as much as 9 kg, in one sitting; as they are the largest breed in the dog family. 
Wolves are legendary because of their spine-tingling howl, which they use to communicate. A lone wolf howls to attract the attention of his pack, while communal howls may send territorial messages from one pack to another.
Riley
Rat
INFP: Curious, snuggly, and supersensitive, they develop incredibly deep, lasting bonds with their people. 
It’s a fate that rat and human beings are greatly related with each other. They often eat our food and have the ability to survive at anywhere without picky about food. Are endowed with the power of acute observation, anticipation, and visionary power. They desire for knowledge and love to learn diligently since childhood. They will never miss a chance to inquire about news. Although they are very meddlesome, their intention is always good. At the same time, they don't like to show their hearts to others; once you know their inner secrets, you may provoke them. They are idealists longing for freedom and they hate any constraint. They always try to keep a complete and independent inner world, and will lose interest because of a little restraint. Getting this result means you're a unique, sociable when you want to be and are highly adaptable. You aren't loud nor quiet, you're a great person who people come to when they need advice.
Tobias
Horse
ESFJ: Due to their dependable nature, their love of harmony, and their tendency to learn from their past mistakes, horses are said to possess the ESFJ personality type.
Horses can display traits that qualify them as social, aloof, fearful, and challenging. They are sensitive to criticism and hate being ignored. That's why no one should say anything behind the horse's back; its sense of hearing is fiercely acute and its temper carries quite a kick.
Getting this result means you respect authority (mostly) and like to see the people around you happy. The horse is a great guide that will assist you to the very end.

What is a dark secret the muses have that could change the way others look at them?
Ray - Ray physically and emotionally self-harms (mostly through self-starvation) when faced with failure that hits him hard enough or when he’s in a state of low well-being. He’s been trying to work through it, but occasionally he relapses.
Matias - Matias really has no dark secrets, just ones that might cause him slight embarrassment.
Conrad - Conrad is actually terrified when sent on a certain death mission. His bravado and cocky attitude during these are all a front to hide that he’s afraid he won’t come back.
Riley - When Riley heard about Ray’s first, unhealthy relationship, he genuinely wanted to kill Ray’s ex. It took a large amount of self-restraint to not go through with it, and he was outside the man’s home when he’d had his change of heart.
Tobias - Tobias has frequent nightmares and relies heavily on sleeping pills. An addiction is slowly starting to form.

The muses have found out one of their allies has been associating with the enemy! How do they react?
Ray - Given his main version’s utter venom towards Talon, his response to seeing one of his fellow Overwatch agents associating with Talon or a member of it would basically be: “Give me a good reason why I shouldn’t report your ass to the others. And give me a damn good reason why I shouldn’t take you out myself.”
Matias - He’d simply toss them out of his airship without a moment’s hesitation. Maybe send them running with some cannon fire.
Conrad - Unless it directly affects him getting paid, he honestly wouldn’t care one bit. In fact, there’s a very high chance Conrad has been doing some under-the-table deals with the enemy as well! He is, after all, a very untrustworthy opportunist who’d sell Talon out if someone paid him enough!
Riley - Riley would find it very hypocritical for him to get angry or upset with that person, given he’d struck a deal with one of Talon’s agents to help them with a person goal in exchange for helping him escape imprisonment. The most Riley would do is take them aside, sit them down, talk to them and tell them to be careful with whoever they’re associating with.
Tobias - Tobias would honestly be unconcerned and stay out of it. If it looks like that association will lead the the Overwatch agent getting hurt or betraying the team for Talon, then he would act. Otherwise, any other consequences they might face, he would leave them to face on their own.

3️⃣ For all the muses
3️⃣ - Pick 2 characters to join them in a threeway, and explain why you picked these two.
(I’ll only be going with canon OW characters for this one, mind you!)
Ray - Gabe and Jesse, mainly because there are so many Jesses and Gabes he’s had chemistry with over the years I’ve RPed him through!
Matias - Probably Genji and Junkrat. Genji because Pirates vs. Ninjas jokes (and I kinda ship it) and Junkrat because he was the first ever muse Matias did NSFW with.
Conrad - If Conrad had to choose, it’d be a toss-up between Moira and Mercy or Moira and Reaper.
Riley - Sigma and Reinhardt probably. Old man threeway. XD
Tobias - Jack because he’s the only one who’s had even a shred of chemistry with Tobias so far, and probably Reaper just to complete the Reaper76 set. XD

🔥 + Delivering a spanking (all 5 for if they are giving a spanking to the naughty recipient)
Send me  🔥 + a word and I will write a NSFW headcanon for my muse.
Ray - Ray’s not a fan of it, whether on the receiving end or the giving end.
Matias - Matias has no concept of ‘naughty’ in the sexual sense, so he’d genuinely think they did something bad and lock them in his airship’s brig for a few hours.
Conrad - He’d be willing to to that to his partner...though he’d use his gloves so there’s a chance a very strong zap may come with it.
Riley - Riley’s not particularly into the idea himself, but if it’s something his partner’s into, he’d be open to it.
Tobias - “...Not happening.”
