Hurt/Comfort Letter

Thank you so much for writing for me! I'm pretty easy to please, honestly, and I look forward to reading what you write! :) My A03 name is SegaBarrett.
Likes: Fluff, BDSM, angst, fluffy animals, humor, darkfic, pregnancy, cute babies, cute baby animals, angst, chibis (for art)
Dislikes/DNWs: animal death, ants, child abuse (but canon or canon compliant references to abuse are fine - just nothing super graphic please; I will try and be more specific in canons where this applies), abortion, eye trauma, situations where disabled people are in danger to get their loved ones to do something, destruction of a person's things, drowning (in the request where it's canon, it's okay if they get pulled out before they die)
Prompts!

Altered States - Drugs (recreational), Bad Guys Made Them Do It, Caring for pet as self-care, character A worries he is no good for character B (character A is wrong), Dogs, character A has been crying and tries to hide it but character B still notices it
Prompts: I don't have prompts per se for these guys, but just go wild with anything to do with these tags! I love this movie so much and I love these two together and the way that Cliff is always there for Rick and how Rick loves him but is kind of needy. And including Brandy is of course A++.

Aftermath of Sexual Assault, Bad Guys Made Them Do It, Being bathed while mutually pining, Character A rescues character b from captivity and repeated rape; lovingly helps them recover, Captivity - captured together, caring for pet as self-care, drugged confessions of past trauma, mental breakdown

Helping hurt character with roaring rampage of revenge (more specifically for Bryce & Michelle)

Prompts: I just am gonna need some season 3 era Bryce up in here :) I would love to see him comforting Tyler after Tyler's disclosure in s3, or helping Justin with his drug issues. Alternatively, Ani dealing with Bryce being all angsty.
And of course, Bad Guys could make them do it. I don't know if this would be Monty or Seth or whoever.
