#I shouldn't want sad spartans but the parasite in me wants it

You know, the angst of a Spartan's partner dying is all well and good, but what about a Spartan's significant other almost dying? It's angsty but not too much so.
Even better, what if you almost died because of them before they ever admitted their feelings? Even better, what if the only reason you nearly died is because you took a wound for them instead? A wound that would have only hospitalized them for a week or so, but nearly kills you. So, they're left to watch you in intensive care fighting for your life.
The drama would be dramaing and I'm here for it. But let me hit you with another angsty thought, what if they accidentally hurt you? By some sort of miscalculation and you ended up hospitalized cause of them. Just thinking about how utterly shitty Fred-104 would feel and his thoughts are spiraling "because of him, because of him, because of hi-"
Or John-117 having a constant flashback to the ODSTs he killed right out of augmentation and he keeps thinking of it happening to you, of your blood being on his hands-
All the Spartans are seen in the medical wing of the ship off and on, some more than others. Linda-058 keeps in the shadows, so none of the staff can kick her out and she can stay as long as she wants.
No one dares to tell Kelly-087 to leave, sometimes she disappears and the staff isn't exactly sure when she came back. Some of them start second-guessing if she left at all.
Naomi-010 doesn't leave your side unless she's ordered on a mission but returns to the same spot as soon as she's done. It's not that she doesn't trust the staff, it's more so to protect you if something happens. It's what she keeps telling herself at least.
