Making a list of random Russian words I think Heavy would say so y'all can stop putting "da" and "niet" everywhere.

"Ну" - an interjection, untranslatable.

"Так" - "so" - another interjection.

"Всё" - "all" / "that's all" - usually used to signify being done with something. "Всё, I'm tired, let's go home." Can be used in conjunction with past tense to signify an intention. "Всё, I left. " ("That's it, I'm leaving.")

"Ну да." - "Yeah, right." - sarcastic.

"Ну да, конечно." - "Yeah, right, of course." - very sarcastic.

"Тихо" - "quiet" / "be quiet" - can be used literally, but also has mild comedic potential. Use it when someone is making a point that is factually correct, contradicts your point, but also you kind of hate it. "I am pretty good at chess." - "You never won against Medic." - "Тихо."

"Куда?!" - "Where?!" - use when someone or something is moving in a direction you neither expected nor desired. For a more obscene (mat) version, see: "Куда, бля?!"

"Давай" - "let's go" - can be used in a variety of contexts, including but not limited to: a suggestion, an encouragement, a sarcastic taunt, and a substitute for "goodbye". "Давай, see you later."

"Отстань" - "leave me alone" - said when annoyed by someone. For a mat version see "отъебись", for plural see "отстаньте" and "отъебитесь".

"Ладно" - "alright" - has a ton of uses. One I'd like to see is reluctantly agreeing to something you'd previously dismissed. "Ладно, you convinced me!"

"Короче" - lit. "shorter" - an extremely common interjection. Depending on context, can be translated as "so" or "to put it briefly". "The BLU team has a turret on the roof, a stickybomb ambush in the tunnel, and a Spy in our territory - короче, we are fucked."

"Хорошо" - "fine". Can be used instead of "ладно" or in the same sentence. "Всё, ладно, хорошо, you convinced me! Now отстань."

"Бывает" - lit. "Happens" - used when reacting to a relatable story, or when trying to comfort someone who just experienced an unpleasant but relatively minor thing. Not unkind, but not overly empathetic either. My sis said it when my cousin announced his breakup at the family table. Happens. Shrug.

"Надо" - "need" or "gotta" - used in response to someone protesting the inevitable. "I don't wanna wake up at 6 frickin' AM to do Soldier's stupid frickin' training!" - "Надо, Scout, надо."

"Жесть" - lit. "Tin" - not sure where the use comes from, but it's said in reaction to something shocking and almost always negative. "His head blew up. Жесть." Not a rule, but I would use it with a period instead of an exclamation mark, for emphasis.

"Ужас" - "horror" - same context as "жесть", but worse. Can also be sarcastic. Can also extend into a full sentence: "Какой ужас!" - "What terror!".

"Стой" - lit. "Stand" (verb, imperative) - wait, hold on, hold up a minute, etc. See "стойте" for plural. "Подожди"/"погоди" (plural "подождите"/"погодите") is very similar and literally means "wait".

"Спасибо" - "thank you".

"Пожалуйста" - "please". Can also be a response to "thank you".

"Всегда пожалуйста" - "always please" - a very lovely response to "thank you", basically means you're always ready to help.

"Не за что" ("for nothing") and "на здоровье" ("for health") - two more nice responses to "thank you".

"Будь здоров" - lit. "Be healthy" - "bless you", like when someone sneezes.

Will add more later.

MASTER LIST

(song inspo)

Last Edited: 1/6/2023

The Scout

Expressing: Physical Touch

Receiving: Words of Affirmation

Close to an even split between expressing and receiving words of affirmation. Most would assume as much, given his infamous loudmouth reputation. But he finds using actions most effective to show how much he genuinely cares. Scout may fall back on words of affirmation as his most common way to express affection, but when he means it the most, he'll opt for the latter.

Scout can come off as a bit handsy when the two of you are out in public. He likes to show you off around other people and how much he loves you. He's always got an arm around your waist or hips. He's not afraid to get a little frisky with you, no matter who's watching, he loves the attention and double looks people give seeing him so brazenly intimate.

He is never one to control himself whenever infatuated, and you are no exception. He has this unknown subconscious need to keep you close when the two of you are alone and can be a natural cuddle bug when he's feeling extra needy. When he's feeling a bit more low-key, he'll like to spend nights with you, watching movies with your head on his chest. He loves seeing you smile and laugh. Nothing feels better to him than to feel the weight of your body against his, shaking with laughter.

As much as he likes to talk himself up and brag around other people when it's just the two of you, he's shockingly needy. Scout is desperate for your full attention and compliments and will lose his mind if he goes too long without hearing your praise.

Competitive to his core, even when utterly smitten. Scout always wants to be the most important person in your life, and when you see how insecure he is in private, you can't help but pity him slightly despite yourself.

The Soldier

Expressing: Acts of Service

Receiving: Quality Time

Solly always pours his total energy and heart into what matters most to him, which is especially true of you. Protecting you and acting as your lover grants him a sense of security and validation he's never known before, and he would do anything to guard this.

Despite his behavior, yandere Solly is at least somewhat aware of how other people see him as a fool, but he doesn't care about any of that. So long as he can prove to you his heart's in the right place, that's all that matters to him. And he will do whatever it takes to prove this to you.

He's low-key a mix of acts of service and physical touch, though he isn't nearly as touch-obsessed as Scout. The two are naturally drawn to more concrete displays of affection because of instant gratification.

Solly will expect your undivided attention and affection in exchange for his efforts. As your lover, he deserves nothing less. Any time he is off the battlefield or away from his duties to his team, he wants you by his side. Nothing is worse to him than being stuck all alone with his own thoughts.

In his mind, the time he spends with you equals rare moments of peace. In a sense, you represent his "end game" or his "idyllic peace." Finally, something to dream about after the war.

The Pyro

Expressing: Gift Giving

Receiving: Quality Time

Some might call them childish, but the way Pyro has preserved their inner childlike wonder is enviable. Not concerned with the incongruity between their perceptions and reality, Pyro lives to have fun and enjoy all the wonder and happiness life offers.

Pyro's something of a magpie. They love to collect and hoard cute little knick-knacks and trinkets which catch their eye when out and about and bring them home to you. Loves the way they get to share these little tokens of affection with you, their little way to give you back a bit of the joy you bring them. They may never bring home something as valuable or beautiful as you, but the best they can do is surround you with what they can gather.

Even the smallest gifts mean so much to them! There's so much cuteness and joy in the world when you're around; they want to show and share everything with you. They're also surprisingly perceptive of what you like and will do their best to bring back what they know you'd enjoy.

Pyro is repulsed by how life feels so gray and bland when you aren't around, so they want you close by as often as possible. It doesn't matter if it's just loafing around, cooking, or doing chores. It doesn't matter what, so long as it's done with you They just can't get enough of the giddiness you bring them!

The one condition here is they would never want to bring you to the battlefield. They are at least a little aware of how they can lose themself while in combat, and they would never want to risk losing something as important as you so recklessly.

The Demoman

Expressing: Quality Time

Receiving: Acts of Service

No matter how little he may have to spare, Demo finds it vital to set aside time every day to spend with the people he loves. Considering how crazy his life can get, this little space where he can find some control and peace means the world to him.

Even though the time spent together matters the most to him, Demo is perceptive of your likes and dislikes and will do his best to ensure that as long as the two of you are together, he'll keep you entertained or, in some way, content. Drunken or sober, Demo would prefer to share his time in the company of others rather than all alone. (Though obviously, he'd seek out your companionship first and foremost.)

When sober, Demo will try to show you how much you mean to him. He'll want to make memories with you, his gentle way of convincing you how much happier you can be if you stay with him. If he's drunk, he would be more likely to manipulate you and claim he needs you around to keep him safe from his own recklessness.

It means a lot to Demo to have someone look out for him while he's sloshed. To him, it's a meaningful act, seeing it as a way for him to be vulnerable, unfiltered around you, knowing you wouldn't abandon him.

Unfortunately, he's more likely to become more intoxicated when feeling affection-deprived. If Demo's feeling particularly sinister, he might even challenge you to drink with him, knowing how easy it would be to get you in a more suggestive state of mind.

The Heavy

Expressing: Acts of Service

Receiving: Quality Time

He's close to an even split between expressing and receiving acts of service but is slightly more apt to share quality time with you. Considering how hard it is for him to find time to spend by himself sometimes, he'd want to spend whatever he had to spare with you.

Nothing is a greater sense of pride for him than being able to protect and provide for those he loves. And, in turn, nothing makes him feel more loved than keeping you safe. To the degree, Heavy considers this what he was born to do.

He's tormented by feeling as though he's already lost so much time with his loved ones away working. He would do whatever he needed to ensure his relationship with you didn't end up like that. Not only for his own loneliness but also for fearing you'd question if he really loved you.

Generally prefers to remain active when spending time with you. Heavy really appreciates when you keep him company while he's doing chores, cleaning his gun, or eating. Still, if he really did just have some time to kill, he would love to read you some classical literature in his native tongue if you were interested. He would love to try and teach you, though this isn't one of his strong suits.

The Engineer

Expressing: Acts of Service

Receiving: Physical Touch

Like many other mercs, he has the easiest time expressing himself through physical means, partially due to his nature and nurture. Engie was brought up around practical-minded people and learned to show he cares by following their example. He's not exactly touch-starved, but he's more the type to crave your touch specifically.

He might be old-school in some of his views on how relationships "ought to be." Engie believes it's his job to be the primary provider for his partner. You can bet this man will absolutely work wonders in the kitchen. (To this day, he holds onto some of the recipes his mother cooked when he was a little boy, and Engie's always dreamed of the day he found someone special to share these with. The day he met you, he knew it was only a matter of time before he'd have his moment to shine.) His little way of letting you know, so long as it was just the two of you together, you'd always be comfortable.

Hates the way he can get so lonely tinkering away in his shop for hours on end. If you were to stop by and offer to help, he would be over the moon. It wouldn't matter to him if you were exceptionally proficient with machines. It's not the help he's so happy about, not the skill. It's the consideration and loyalty of choosing to come and visit him and spend some time at his side, something he would never take for granted.

While he may not be the most touchy-feely person, Engie isn't shy either! If he were craving more intimacy, he'd let his hands rest against your body, pull you closer to him, and sneak sly kisses along your neck while he gently squeezed and ran his hands along your shoulders.

Loves a good back rub. The perfect mix of affection, physical intimacy, practicality, the whole nine. There's nothing Engie loves more than to come home after a long day and stretch out with you. He's lying on his belly shirtless, you straddling his hips while you work out the knots and tension in his shoulders and back. This is his heaven on Earth.

The Medic

Expressing: Quality Time

Receiving: Words of Affirmation

Poor Medic is woefully out of practice and perhaps the most awkward with romance out of any of the mercs (second only to Sniper.) It's not that he's repulsed. He certainly craves affection and companionship, the same as any man. It's the initiation and enigmatic emotions which always trip him up,

Naturally, he'd feel most at ease within his own element, keeping you around for companionship's sake, while he can stay busy and avoid getting overly flustered or awkward around you. Definitely prefers to keep active. The more focus he devotes to the task at hand, the less likely he will get tongue-tied expressing himself. So long as he knows you're around, it's enough to soothe him.

Much like Engie, he's not necessarily touch-starved. He can't help but crave the warmth and comfort your touch never fails to bring. Medic suffers from mild separation anxiety whenever he's away from you for too long or if he doesn't know exactly where you are. Might accidentally snap or lash out at you if you were to leave unexpectedly or for longer than you said you would.

While his own emotions can be so cumbersome to deal with, when you take the time to look him in the eyes, hold his hand, or express how you genuinely care for him, it eases his anxieties. Though there's always the voice in the back of his head telling him the only way to ensure you'll love him forever is if he's your only choice of a lover, he does his best to keep that part of himself under wraps at least for your sake. (Or at least for the time being).

The Sniper

Expressing: Quality Time

Receiving: Physical Touch

To be blunt, Sniper is down bad for physical comfort or really contact of any kind. But he knew what he was signing up for when he chose the Sniper profession. Though this does little to alleviate the sting of loneliness, he suffers amidst long nights of isolation.

To some extent, he's pretty discontent with how accustomed he is to live like a recluse. Even if he knows it is rather dangerous, he likes it when you keep him company in his van when he's out on stakeouts, though at a safe physical distance. He'd do anything to keep from feeling so utterly alone against the rest of the world.

Despite the dangers, Sniper is aware the closer he keeps you during dangerous times, the easier it will be to keep you safe. Additionally, the less likely you are to try and slip away from him, given the severe danger around you.

He's not the handsy type someone like Scout might be, but he is addicted to the warmth of your skin against his body in downtime. Can get a bit fidgety, so he'll usually be drumming his fingers against you or nuzzling into the crook of your neck. Really likes when you sit between his lanky legs so he can just kinda sprawl out around and on top of you.

He's well aware of how people who aren't trained Snipers can become somewhat disturbed during stakeouts. You might find yourself lurking closer to him to keep away from the danger despite yourself. The hours of near-silence and darkness wear down on you, hindering your judgment considerably.

The Spy

Expressing: Gift Giving

Receiving: Physical Touch

Given that Spy is the most experienced in love and romance, he's more likely to try and get a read for you and play to what he'd suspect your love language would be and use this to his advantage as a manipulation tactic to appeal to you.

A lover of all things beautiful and precious, he's the type to try to show you how beloved he finds you by surprising you with little mementos and tokens of affection. Unlike Pyro, though, he's more discernible and only brings you the best of the best rather than Pyro's magpie approach.

He spared no expense, though given how espionage and theft go hand in hand, it'd be in your best interest not to overthink how exactly he managed to afford such lavishness. Despite the possessive behavior, manipulative streak, and possibly conspiring you in his crimes, even you had to admit, the man has spectacular taste. And to reject something so lovely and leave it to gather dust? Surely that's a greater crime than any theft, right? 🥺

Despite his smooth-talking, magnetic presence and charming allure, you can't help but worry he's just leading you on to get in your pants and likely are blissfully unaware of how deep his possessiveness runs.

The Spy's love of beauty and art is part of the reason he's so drawn to your physical form, and even if you think he harbors ulterior motives, he will do anything to prove his pure love for you.
