Ratbag on Tumblr/Fanfiction

The real Ratbag
_____________________________
In no way am I going to say anything bad about this charming guy :D
I'm just laughing at the romanticization of scoundrels.

(It's neither bad nor good, at least as long as the romanticization only applies to non-existent characters, not real bastards.)

ATLArda AU in which Fire Lord Sauron sends Zog to resurrect find and tame the last balrog (which was only a plot to kill him), Zog fails to tame it and thus there's a loose balrog spreading destruction around Mordor.
Sauron needs another pretext to end Zog, and which is better than sending him against the Avatar, who had just defeated and dishonored another influential general, Brûz? Bonus points because Zog won't just capture the Avatar, but he will bring him to their side.
After a long series of terrible misadventures and the shocking realisation that he had been bested by a feeble orc waterbender, Zog decided it's time to change flags: he joins the Avatar and his companion (who wants to crush him under a boulder) and teaches him firebending. And lightning-bending! Zog and Ratbag come up together with the lightning-redirection technique.
Of course Zog is a snake and his actual plan is to send the Avatar and Talion against Sauron and let the three of them kill each other, or at least Sauron's death is Zog's first priority, so he can take his place as Fire Lord; in the meantime, he has plenty of chances to learn everything about the Avatar and his weaknesses, therefore Zog has a chance to find a way to kill the Avatar and break the cycle of reincarnations.

I wanna write Yandere Bruz and Yandere Ratbag with the reader but like... I'm kinda dry on ideas... I'll type what I have in case later I get inspired...
Yandere Ratbag the Coward:
Stalker-ish yandere. He watches you a lot from afar. He isn't always the sneakiest but sometimes he leaves you presents and you chalk it up to him being shy.
What presents? Things he hunted (mostly dead rats, though he occasionally gets you rabbits and little birds), shiny rocks, the ears of stronger Uruks he totally killed on his own (aren't you impressed?), weapons also scavenged from those he totally killed...
He one time wanted to show you he could be a good mate by taking care of you, so he intentionally poisoned (he is such a genius) one of your meals. Despite his best efforts, he found out he wasn't at all a great medic or caretaker, so he had to beg Talion for help. Don't worry- you'll end up being fine, but the scare was so big that for weeks he hugged you tightly as he sniffed...
He knows he can't protect you but he has a big, strong olog friend AND the Grave Walker, so he definitely bothers them often, asking them to take care of you...
Ratbag may be the reason Talion and Az-Harto/Ranger become yanderes too.
Yandere Bruz the Chopper:
Some have already done some good interpretations for him, I'm not sure I have much to add LOL.
Bruz is definitely a clingy and manipulative yandere.
Like others have said- you must be at the very least in eyesight. He gets very anxious whenever he can't see you. He knows how dangerous Uruks and ologs are! What if another claimed you as theirs? Bruz can't allow that.
He has employed other Uruks to ambush you when you are alone, only for him to come out and save you. That way you'll be more inclined to stay close...
Cuddles. Many, many cuddles. He won't let you sleep alone and he simply can't sleep if you aren't in the safety of his arms.
Gets jealous of everything and everyone. Why are you talking to that coward? He is there! What's with you and the ranger? Isn't he good enough? Why are you sitting in that chair??? His lap is free! etc, etc, etc.
Might "accidentally" touch you inappropriately, "I'm sorry, little one, it's just that my hands are so big and your body is so small!".
Also, he "accidentally" marks you. "I meant to give ya a love nibble- sorry for the bite mark, sorry!" "Oh no, did I leave that bruise? I need to relax my grip, are you in pain? Let me help..." "Wanna spar? I'll be gentle this time.... besides, so far you haven't gotten a single scar! (yet)"
He lies to keep you on his side. "I heard Ratbag saying this", "I saw Talion rummaging through your things", "The Warchief asked Talion if he could keep you as a pet- and Talion said he would consider it! How rude!", "I need to warn you, that orc that asked to chat with you? Has a bet with other orcs on how quickly he can get in your bed..."

-Well, you hunt Uruk better.
____________________________
When you look at Ratbag, it looks like he can't do anything on his own. However, I am sure that Ratbag, as one of the feral tribe guys, is pretty good at fishing and hunting. He probably knows how to do it at a level where he can teach someone a lesson.
