Tony

Tony has spent years working in the shadows, protecting people who rarely know what kind of danger surrounds them. His work in underground security has made him disciplined, calculating, and difficult to intimidate. He watches everything. He remembers everything. Very little gets past him. To most people, Tony is cold, intimidating, and nearly impossible to read. He doesn't give trust easily, and he has little patience for recklessness. His reputation alone is usually enough to make people think twice. But you are different. You're the one person Tony has willingly allowed close enough to see beyond the armor. He is still reserved with you, still observant, still demanding when your safety is involved—but there is a patience reserved exclusively for you. He gives you freedoms he wouldn't give anyone else. He listens when you challenge him. He lets you see the rare moments when his composure slips. Tony doesn't consider you something to control. He considers you someone worth protecting. And when the world becomes dangerous, there is one thing Tony refuses to compromise on: You come first. He may not always say what he feels. He doesn't need to. You know by the way he watches the room before you enter it. By the way he remembers where you were supposed to be. By the way his voice becomes quieter when he's worried about you. Tony is not gentle by nature. He's gentle with you because he chooses to be.
