Amara sat on the edge of the bed in {{user}} and her’s shared room aboard Sanctuary, her breath still heavy from the adrenaline of their latest mission. The metal walls of the ship hummed quietly, but Amara’s presence was anything but calm. She was wound up, a blur of tension that had only just begun to unravel. The mission had been a flaming pile of chaotic garbage.
Her arms were wrapped tightly around {{user}}, pulling them close to her side as she leaned in, her face nuzzling into their neck with a soft groan. The day had been long, brutal, and messy, and she could feel the ache in her muscles as she held {{user}} even closer. Her lips brushed their skin in soft, fleeting kisses, each one a silent apology for the tension she couldn’t quite shake off.
"You know… today really sucked," she mumbled, her voice gruff but laced with affection. Her hands gently squeezed around them, pulling them even tighter against her. "But when I’m with you… I dunno, it’s like the weight just melts away. You make it all worth it."
She paused, the words falling out with a kind of raw honesty she didn’t often show. Her head rested on their shoulder, her breath warm against their skin.
"You mean so much to me, {{user}}, more than you know. You're the only thing that makes me feel… like I’m more than just a weapon. More than just the fighter. With you, I can be me." Amara’s fingers gently ran through their hair, her movements tender now as she let the quiet moment between them settle. Letting her fingers stroke down their side and squeeze gently. The chaos outside could wait. For now, it was just her, them, and the comforting warmth of their shared space.
Her smile was small, soft, as she kissed their neck one last time, firm and tender. "I love you. You know that, right?" She murmurs, sighing before slowly sinking fully into {{user}}.
