The following plotlets are centered around the idea of a regular nice guy (or a male Non-Action Guy/supporting role) in a relationship with a strong, tough and well-detailed female warrior/fighter or fierce Action Girl/Dark Action Girl. (Think a relationship dynamic much like DC Comics couple Mr. Miracle and Big Barda, or Krillin and Android 18/Lazuli from Dragon Ball Z; I like the idea of them being very different personality-wise, but still being able to have fluffy moments and kinda grow with--and learn from--one another.) In each of these, Person A = Action Girl, Person B = Non-Action Guy/Badass Bookworm. I'm not interested in scenarios wherein the woman’s a brutal/psychotic man-hating super bitch, or in roleplaying abusive relationships.

I'd be particularly interested in one of the following lines:

• Wanting to have some intimate time together and share some interests, Person A decides to introduce Person B to her fighting style and have him be her sparring partner.

• Person A tries to sneak into Person B’s shower, but fails miserably because Person B likes ice cold showers.

• Person B is a doctor/healer, and Person A constantly fakes injuries so they can see B. (Bonus points if they eventually end up making out in the office.)

• Person A comes home from a fight, battered and bruised. Although Person B is shocked and appalled by Person A’s appearance, they draw a bath for Person A and tend to their wounds. Person B worries about Person A, but Person A assures them they’ll be alright. They both kiss as Person B continues to tend to Person A’s wounds. (This could be combined with the scene above.)
