First, Sabertooth needs to show real remorse for their actions. Then, they can start by being gentle and patient with the OC. For example, they could offer small acts of kindness like bringing the OC a favorite treat or helping with a task. The OC, in turn, can start to trust Sabertooth little by little as they see these positive changes. They can also engage in shared activities that are non - threatening, like reading together or taking walks, which can help strengthen their bond in a positive way.
One common theme could be redemption. Maybe the Sabertooth character tries to redeem themselves for their past actions towards the abused OC. Another theme might be healing. The OC could be on a journey of healing from the abuse, with the Sabertooth character playing a role in that process. Also, there could be a theme of trust building. Since the OC has been abused, it would be difficult for them to trust, and the story could focus on how they gradually build trust with the Sabertooth character.
To develop Sabertooth in fanfiction, you could start by delving deeper into his past traumas. His past might have made him the violent mutant he is, so exploring those events can add layers to his character. For example, if he had a difficult childhood, it could explain his aggression.
The relationship could be developed through shared secrets. For instance, the OC could have a secret past related to a meta - human experiment that they don't want anyone to know. Barry discovers this secret and instead of judging, he helps the OC come to terms with it. This mutual trust and understanding can deepen their relationship. Another way is if the OC has a special interest or hobby, like painting portraits of Central City's heroes. Barry could be the subject of one of these portraits, and through this, they start to have deeper conversations about their hopes and fears.
To write it in a positive way, first, redefine 'abuse'. It could be more of a tough love situation. Start with a strong introduction of the OC, her dreams and her initial impression of Seth Rollins. Then, when showing the 'abuse' moments, focus on the OC's internal thoughts of using it as motivation. For example, if Seth is critical of her in - ring performance, the OC could think 'I'll show him I can be better'.
It could start with Ironhide showing simple kindness to the OC. Just small acts like making sure they have food or a safe place to stay. This can gradually build into a deeper emotional connection.
Well, the relationship development can be complex. The OC, due to their abuse, might be initially distrustful of All Might. But All Might's consistent kindness and protection start to break down those barriers. They could have heart - to - heart conversations where the OC shares their traumas, and All Might shares his own insecurities (despite being a hero). This mutual sharing of vulnerabilities can bring them closer together. Also, the OC might start to mimic All Might's heroic behavior, which further cements their relationship as they grow together in the story.
Communication is also key. If Keita is open about his goals and dreams in life, and Sensei shares her own experiences and advice, it can bring them closer. They could start having conversations not just about schoolwork but also about their hobbies, values, and future plans. This way, they can build a relationship based on shared interests and understanding.
They could start by having more in - depth conversations. For example, Naruto could share his dreams for a more peaceful ninja world with Sakura, and Sakura could talk about her hopes for the growth of Konoha's medical facilities. This would deepen their understanding of each other.
The relationship could start with a misunderstanding. For example, the OC could think that Ryou is a bit of a cold - hearted boss at the café where she works, but then she discovers his kind side when he helps her rescue a stray cat. This moment of seeing his true nature could be the start of her developing feelings for him.
Well, it could be developed through shared secrets. For instance, Jasmine discovers a secret about Jafar's past that makes her see him in a new light, and she decides to help him deal with it. This creates a connection between them that's different from the typical hero - villain dynamic.
