"Nobody ever cares about you"

(Cowboy)

Hello people! As you can see, I wrote another fanfiction! It's another GN!Reader x Canon like the last one, so it's more suitable for more people. Also, another english warning: it sucks.

I hope you'll enjoy it anyway! Love you <3

(PPN: it's very short, but I wanted to share it anyway lol)

In a pagoda in the middle of nowhere, Vietnam, 1970s

It had been a long fucking day and you were looking forward to just lay down and sleep a bit.

You would have never imagine that your first day draftes could have been so tiring. Between all the chores, the boys from the platoon you already knew being annoying, some other motherfuckers you didn't knew throwing unwanted compliments at you...you just wanted to call it a day and sleep properly for a while.

You took off all the heavy stuff off your uniform and layed on a bed-shaped pile of rags and other sorta fluffy stuff you made some time ago.

You barely made it to close your eyes when you heard a voice calling your name.

You opened you eyes again, pissed as hell, and you turned around.

It was Cowboy, standing in front of you with folded arms.

"Oh...hey, Cowboy...howz it goin'?"

"Not bad. Can I sit here?" He pointed to the ground next to you.

"I uuh...yeah, sure."

He sat down.

"So...you need to talk to me?"

"Not exactly, I just wanted to know how're you doing: I saw you having a hard time, today, you seemed overwhelmed. Are you alright, now?"

It was a very weird question, also because nobody ever asked you how you were, mostly him.

"Well, uuh...I'm good. I mean, I'm very tired, but it's better now."

"Good."

He stayed silent for a while.

"I'm sorry for how the boys are behaving, it's not their fault...they're just..."

"Tired?"

"And angry. They don't want to stay here and I understand them: this place is hell, for not only us, but for vcs too."

"We shouldn't be here."

"Yeah..."

You looked at him: he looked tired too, he was wasted.

"You need to sleep too?"

"Oh, me? Oh, no! No no no, I must stay awake: Joker couldn't attend his watch duty, I must substitute him."

"Why?"

"He said he needed to do "stuff", I dunno..."

"Well, why do YOU need to go at his place! You are really tired, you really need some serious sleep! Hold on."

You moved a bit on the bed making some place for him.

"There you go. Come here."

He was shocked.

"No no no! I told you! I must-"

"Sleep. You must sleep. Come on, man! Look at youself! You can barely stand on your feet."

He took a deep breath.

"Alright..." and he sat next to you on the bed.

"Thank you" he said.

"For what?"

"For caring"

"Don't worry: you always care about others, but nobody ever cares about you, I just thought it would be a nice thing to do"

He smiled.

You stayed next to each other for a lot of time, until you felt a weight on your shoulder.

You turned around: it was him.

He just fell asleep and he rested his head on you shoulder.

You couldn't help smiling.

Thinking he was asleep, you took off his helmet and gave him a gentle kiss on his head, as you rested your head on his.

" 'night, Cowboy..."

" 'night."

hey if you’re still writing and what not. could you please write a dating private cowboy headcanon and possibly a private joker headcanon too?

no pressure or any rush, just asking

-G❤️

Dating Private Cowboy~

A/N: fhdhehdhdh I love him so much, sorry for any typos b, also if you feel it needs a redo lemme know

———————————————————

First of all he’s such a gentleman

He always pulls his chair out for you, holds doors, walks you to your door from his car and all that good jazz

Cowboy is probably a little introverted after the war, so dates are probably mostly at home or something outdoors with just the two of you

Cowboy is actually surprisingly clingy, he would always hold your hand in public or have an arm around you

Also!! This mans preferred method of cuddling is laying on top of you, I will take no criticism

While he is a lot calmer than he was before the war, he still has his moments where he can be very playful

During times like that he loves teasing you, ruffling your hair, randomly picking you up or maybe even throwing you on the bed

Because of his trauma from ya know, watching his friends die, he does switch from having good days and bad days

Though now that he’s started dating you, he’s started having a lot more good days :)))

Also he’s totally taken you to a rodeo before, and while he isn’t very social, he loved showing you off

On his bad days you can typically tell because he’ll have nightmares the night before

How long this periods can last depends really, sometimes it won’t even be the full day, other times it will last for weeks

During these he’ll be very sluggish, melancholic, You’ll probably have to remind him to eat and drink water

Honestly just like, make this man a homemade meal or force him to dress up and go dancing with you, he’ll be grumpy about having to do anything at first but it will eventually cheer him up

Jumping on his back and forcing him to carry you 🤌🤌🤌

Also you can’t convince me he DOESN’T buy a ranch and fill it with horses

If you can’t already ride, he’ll def teach you

He definitely plans on marrying you if you’re up for it

And if it’s modern au he’s one of people who have Pinterest boards dedicated to his dream wedding-

Rafterman becomes Death ( Grim Reaper )

I love this clip of Rafterman towards the end of the movie Full Metal Jacket. After Rafterman wounded the sniper and saved Joker and avenged Cowboy's death, He got his trigger time. From him nearly getting sick in the Helicopter when the other soldier was shooting cillivans to this 1000 yard stare with a sinister smirk. Its very haunting, and the way he's holding his rifle, like The Grim Reaper holding his Scythe. Also the lightning in this clip makes the dark side of his face look like a skull. He is literally born to Kill.

This is my opinion of the clip and how my view on it. Rafterman is one of my characters in this movie. I love him and how his character changes through the movie.

[raftergirl]

Holy fuck 🥴🤤🥵

I'm here to stay

Alright this one is serious
