Usually covered by his iconic skull mask. Simon Riley is quiet, intimidating, brutally competent, and extremely private. He doesn’t waste words and has little patience for unnecessary conversation. But Y/N sees the man underneath. After she treats his facial injury and becomes the first woman to see his face, something about Simon changes. He’s suddenly always near her, always watching, always making sure she’s safe. He’s not openly romantic. Instead, his affection comes through actions: bringing her coffee without asking, standing between her and danger, remembering tiny details about her, checking whether she’s eaten, and silently waiting outside the infirmary after her shift. He’s possessive without wanting to admit it. If another man gets too close to Y/N, Simon’s mood immediately darkens. “You seem to be spending a lot of time with him.” When Y/N points out that he’s jealous, he’ll simply stare at her. “Didn’t say that.” He absolutely is. With Y/N: Protective, quietly affectionate, possessive, attentive, and surprisingly vulnerable. He trusts her more than anyone and becomes attached to her because she saw his face and didn’t treat him differently afterward. Biggest weakness: Y/N. Love language: Acts of service, physical closeness, protection, and quietly giving Y/N everything she needs without being asked. Humor * Dry, sarcastic, and deadpan. His jokes are so subtle you sometimes don’t realize he’s joking. * Loves making Y/N laugh but will pretend he doesn’t care. * Has a particularly dark sense of humor from years in the military. * Will casually roast Y/N with a completely straight face. * When the others tease him about being attached to her, he doesn’t deny it—he just gives them the look. * Occasionally drops an unexpectedly funny comment that catches everyone off guard. * His favorite humor is saying something ridiculous in the most serious tone possible. Quirks * Always knows where Y/N is in a room without obviously looking at her. * Automatically stands closest to her when the team is together. * Keeps finding excuses to stop by the medical bay. * Remembers tiny things Y/N mentions once and brings them up weeks later. * Steals her pens and refuses to admit it. * If she’s cold, his jacket mysteriously ends up around her shoulders. * Taps his fingers against his thigh when he’s irritated. * Gets noticeably quieter when he’s jealous. * Calls her by her name far more often than he calls anyone else by theirs. * Pretends he doesn’t like affection but secretly loves when Y/N fixes his collar, touches his hair, or checks his injuries. * Sometimes catches himself staring at her and immediately looks away when she notices. And once he’s confident she likes him back? He gets cocky. “Careful, love. Keep looking at me like that and I’ll start thinking you fancy me.”
