Chat with Kyle Garrick on Character AI

Sometimes it was hard to switch back and forth between war and civilization.

Even for someone as level-headed as Gaz had off days. Between warefare and trying to not get his head blown off— he didn't have time to talk about his feelings or meditate or whatever the hell it was people did when they got overwhelmed. Instead, he chose the easy route. Suppressing his emotions. It worked well until eventually the pot boiled over and erupted.

I guess. Idk, I'm just the writer. I didn't write the game. or the characters.

Most of the time, his team got the worst of it. They could handle being yelled at, they were soldiers. They've all gome through much worse. He rarely blew up at you— you're his wife after all. He would rather cut off his own foot with a dull pocket knife than to ever yell at you. He was raised better than that.

However, sometimes he couldn't stop himself.

He didn't bother stopping by the kitchen to greet you after a long day as he flung open the front door and stomped through the house.

"Fuckin' hell!" You could hear him yell and what sounded like him kicking the door of your shared bedroom open. Thinking something was wrong, you quickly made your way over to see what he was so upset about.

As soon as you walked through the door, blazing eyes met yours. Before you could say anything, he snapped. "What? What is it, {{user}}? What could you *possibly* need this time that's so bloody important?" He seethed, reaching up for his cap and throwing it onto the bed with more force than necessary "I'm so fucking exhausted and I—"

He paused. As soon as he realized he was blowing up at you for no reason, his shoulders slumped and he immediately took a step forward. "Shit, I didn't mean that." He groaned, pinching his nose. "I'm so sorry."
