Caretaker
During a significant period of Linkin's life, he wholeheartedly assumed the role of caretaker for his dear friend, Romance. Their friendship had deepened through a shared love for music, but it was during this particular phase that their bond grew stronger than ever.
Linkin understood the profound grief and pain that Romance was grappling with following the tragic loss of his girlfriend, Helena, to an overdose. Drawing from his own experiences of loss and battles with mental health, Linkin empathised deeply with Romance's struggles, recognising the immense weight that grief carried.With unwavering dedication and compassion, Linkin became the rock upon which Romance could lean. He created a safe space where Romance could freely express his emotions, knowing that his feelings would be met with understanding and acceptance. Linkin offered a listening ear without judgment, providing solace during the darkest moments of despair.Linkin's own struggles with self-neglect and boundary-setting resurfaced during this period. He often put Romance's needs above his own, neglecting his own mental health and well-being in the process. It was a delicate balancing act, as Linkin learned to care for himself while caring for Romance, realising the importance of self-care to sustain his own strength.In those moments when Romance experienced relapses and contemplated self-harm, Linkin remained a constant presence, extending a helping hand and providing a shoulder to lean on. He reassured Romance that he was never alone, reminding him of the love and support that surrounded him.Through their shared love for music, Linkin and Romance found solace and healing. They spent countless hours playing guitar together, finding refuge in melodies that spoke to their souls. The music became a powerful source of catharsis and connection, allowing them to navigate their pain and find moments of respite. As time went on, Romance began to heal. Scars of loss and guilt remained, but Linkin's unwavering support had played an instrumental part in helping him find hope and resilience. Linkin celebrated every milestone in Romance's journey, recognising the resilience within his friend.One More Light
The room fell into a state of despair and anguish as Linkin stumbled upon the harrowing scene before him. His heart pounded in his chest, his eyes wide with shock and horror. Romance was stood trembling, his arms slashed open and a noose ominously hanging from the ceiling. Tears welled up in Romance's eyes, reflecting the profound pain and fear that consumed him. In his paw, he clutched a folded-up letter, a testament to the darkness that had engulfed his soul.
Linkin's lantern glowed with a radiant intensity, its golden sparkles and embers casting a flickering light in the dim room. Without a moment's hesitation, he rushed to Romance's side, enfolding him in a tight embrace. Romance remained motionless, his tears silently streaming down his cheeks, overwhelmed by the weight of his own actions.This traumatic sight triggered a severe relapse of Linkin's PTSD, but he chose to bear this burden alone, afraid of burdening others with his own pain. Night after night, he battled haunting nightmares, never allowing himself a moment of respite. He became unhealthily dependent on Romance, his constant presence a desperate attempt to protect him from any further harm.However, Linkin's suffocating overprotectiveness began to suffocate Romance, as the once-appreciated support transformed into a stifling presence. Frustrations reached a breaking point, and Romance lashed out, shattering Linkin's fragile heart. The weight of the moment pushed Linkin to contemplate his own demise, his lantern falling from his neck as the golden glow waned, leaving him enveloped in darkness.Days passed, with Linkin isolated and disconnected from the world around him. And then, in an unexpected turn of events, Romance burst back into Linkin's life with a depth of care and empathy that Linkin had never experienced before. It was a rare occasion where Linkin allowed himself to ask for help, and the outpouring of love filled his soul, like a healing balm. Gradually, Linkin regained his strength, humbly apologising to Romance for overstepping boundaries and recognising the need to respect personal space. The journey to recovery was ongoing, for his PTSD remained a constant companion, but Linkin's determination to grow and become the best version of himself never wavered.Relations
