I'M LATE BUT ALSO GIVE ME SPECIFIC SHARON FEELINGS SO FAR THANKS

[chew_toy]

he LOVES HER SO MUCH

I put a little bit of Sharon specific stuff here already but in addition to that. he is just so happy she's here. I'VE BEEN FOLLOWING SHARON'S OTHER THREADS and everyone being like "oh poor Reim he must be so worried" is so funny to me because he's,,, not NOT worried but dramatically less worried than he is relieved and thrilled. the thing is that he knows Sharon is actually a strong person! so even though PRISON is a hard adjustment and probably more dangerous than their domestic aristocrat life at home he also knows she can deal with it and would rather be here than safe but alone. so he's glad because he knows she's happier this way... and she gets to see Break again...

because they've only been married for one year I've def been playing Reim a little bit in sort of the honeymoon/newlywed stage where he is just unbelievably infatuated with everything she says and does. he is so happy they are married at all. look at his wife. (I call it the newlywed stage but will Reim ever truly leave this stage with Sharon.) but at the same time bc they've known each other so long and because Reim in particular is someone who is so locked in on what the people he cares about are like, he's also like. really relaxed and comfortable with her and their interactions. he is really ready and ok with sharing everything and every part of his life with her. so he also treats her in a much more familiar way like they've been together much longer than he's even been courting her at the same time as 'this is my wife ♥♥♥ have you met my wife ♥♥♥♥"

there's kind of a funny irony I assume happened wrt him courting her where it's like 'I carefully manicured all of my behaviors and responses to woo her' but the thing is that because wanting to be able to stand as someone's equal and not have to be powerless or protected is such a core issue of Sharon's, I kind of assume it involved a not insignificant amount of like. just being honest with her about his thoughts and problems and letting her feel trustworthy and meaningful in his life in return. SO HE IS STILL JUST... FINE WITH DOING THAT. like there is a part of him also that wants to do everything for her and he has to consciously tamp down on that bc it's not what she really wants/needs. if he DID do that it would just be for his own satisfaction, but he knows she is a really capable person who takes challenges as opportunities to grow and so he is like. simultaneously going to be hovering around and trying to vet everyone she talks to and everything that might happen to her on some level but also not really seem that actively over-protective bc he'll just let her do a lot on her own (and will eat her cooking......)

to Reim seeing Sharon happy and having fun is like. the best thing. even in a scenario where she is picking on him it would still just be like aaaaa Sharon is enjoying herself aaa //// she's enjoying herself because of me aaaaa ///////. when he told Roy he was married and he wanted to get back to her really desperately, he mentioned that he's never made her cry before and that was a really complicated emotion for him also, because a large part of that is that he's very considerate of her but it's also because she didn't used to care about him as deeply (although she did still care about him a lot). so if he risked his life then it wouldn't used to make the same impact as Break risking his life. but now if Reim just vanished for days with no trace or explanation he KNOWS it would absolutely wreck her and he doesn't want that to happen but also... it goes to show that he is more loved now... he still does not want her to cry ever though

he is a little bit worried that this place will be dangerous to her on a level of 'she might get attacked' and also doesn't like that they're in different groups and might ask to at least move to the same group, but as far as danger goes he's also like 'Break is here so it will be okay.' also hopefully she'll get Equus back which will help him feel better about it too. more than that he's worried, or maybe more like bracing for her losing Break again but... he also trusts that will go better since. this whole thing is really just extra time to get closure and make peace with it and be greedy together. so he hopes and expects it won't be nearly the same level of knife in the gut as it was the first time, but there is still a little bit of just like. anticipatory dread. like going in to get a shot you know it won't actually be that bad but also you know it's going to hurt. which goes for HIMSELF losing Break again too on some level but he knows he's already working on that, but he's admittedly a little hesitant to talk to bring up the topic with Sharon just yet-- he thinks probably she has considered that he's going to die again at any time also, or even if she hasn't yet it'll still occur to her on her own at some point (or Break might even point it out to her, which Reim would consider better for her in the long run than Reim bringing it up first), so it's not because he wants her to stay oblivious about it, but he just like... doesn't really want to say it out loud and make the window they have feel darker when right now it feels so bright

I could honestly probably keep going if I tried. he has a lot of thoughts and feelings about Sharon.
