#yandere edward buck
Note
Hello! I'd like to request a concept for Edward Buck from Halo if that's okay. Thank you! ^^
Focusing more on Game Canon than Book Canon in this. Hope you like it still :) My biggest issue with Halo yanderes is making them more than just protective, lol. I haven't played ODST in a bit so this is mostly from memory. If someone has ideas to makes this more "yandere", I'll take feedback.
Not proofread, may have mistakes.
Yandere! Edward Buck Concept
Pairing: Platonic -> Romantic
Possible Trigger Warnings: Gender-Neutral Darling, Obsession, Overprotective behavior, Manipulation, Paranoia, Forced retirement, Isolation, Hidden cameras, Implied forced marriage, Delusional behavior, Toxic spouse, Implied forced relationship.
Buck has quite the record on him.
Even as an ODST he was trained on Reach and took part in many Human/Covenant war events.
Not only that but after he was an ODST he joined the SPARTAN-IV program, becoming a member of Team OSIRIS.
I don't think his behavior changes between being an ODST and a Spartan.
Buck is brave and a natural leader.
Despite this he has also seen many of his fellow marines die in his line of work.
This makes him a bit brash but he still manages to always have a plan ready.
Another thing about Buck is he's stubborn and used to have a bloodlust towards the Covenant for glassing his homeworld.
Overall Buck is a great leader... which makes me think he'd have an obsession with someone on his team.
Perhaps you were part of his ODST team and he often found himself prioritizing you.
Buck's obsession can go two ways.
Maybe he still loves Dare, in that case his obsession with you is platonic.
That would make Buck just see you as a close friend, one he wants to protect.
Then there's is he doesn't hold feelings for Dare anymore, in that case his obsession is romantic.
Now he still wants to protect you... but he also wants to also make you his spouse.
His obsession starts as an ODST with you being part of Alpha-Nine.
Even while training you Buck finds himself impressed by your skill set.
He finds you pleasant to talk to and that's when his obsession takes root.
Despite training on Reach, Buck hasn't gone through Spartan enhancements like Master Chief.
Which makes him fully capable of experiencing the full range of emotions.
Even more than The Rookie also on your team.
Imagine if Buck gets attached to you... then you're separated during the New Mombasa attack.
He's already busy enough trying to piece Alpha-Nine back together.
Now he is slowly trying to come to terms with the fact you're missing.
Meanwhile you're in another area, probably accidentally finding The Rookie in the process.
By the time Buck finishes wiping out Covenant forces he always thinks back to you.
He doesn't want to fail you as a leader....
He doesn't understand how he got so attached to you.
But now here he is, panicking because you aren't in his sight... fearing the worst.
Although, near the end of the Battle of Mombasa, Buck and Dare meet up with you again.
Buck never thought he'd see you again, his obsession growing more once he sees you okay.
He holds himself back from just hugging you or doing something more, focusing on the mission.
But safe to say this is where his obsession really takes root.
For the most part, as most UNSC in Halo would be, Buck is a protective yandere.
He is capable of both platonic and romantic feelings towards you.
It would surprise him if he suddenly felt romantic attraction towards you at first.
He first met Dare, but now he's attached to you.
He catches up with you after the events of the war, definitely.
Especially when you both are assigned to the SPARTAN-IV program.
Before going into rigorous training together you both manage to have casual conversation.
Maybe he keeps it friendly, respecting you as his teammate and perhaps even a best friend.
Or maybe Buck takes his chances, flirting with you and praising you for getting this far.
No matter his intentions, Buck feels responsible for you as your leader.
Even if you both have Spartan training and become Spartans, he never seems to part from you.
Why?
The events of New Mombasa echo in his head.
It reminds him of how easily he could lose you.
Even with energy shields and heavy armor, Spartans aren't invincible.
Buck seems like the type of person to convince you to drop out of the program.
He doesn't necessarily doubt your skills, but he has his fears.
He'd rather you retire from fighting and return to civilian life on an inner colony.
He'll keep fighting to keep you safe, but he just doesn't wish to lose you.
He's not necessarily possessive but does "take claim" to you in a way around others.
Maybe he really does eventually feel his feelings are romantic.
Afterwards he wants to keep you in a home away from all the fighting.
In that case he tries to convince you to not only date him but become his spouse.
Maybe you accept? He's a good guy... right?
He might even rush the relationship a bit.
He just wants to marry you and protect you.
Like a good man should, no?
He hates it when you protest against him.
He is definitely the type to say "This is for your own good."
He will fight with you (verbally) to get you to give up being a Spartan.
Eventually he'll have you settle down somewhere and he'll visit you when he can.
He doesn't want you to cheat on him so he probably has cameras or something to monitor you.
He expects his spouse to be loyal, after all.
He does all this to protect you.
But don't worry! When he visits you he'll smother you in affection.
Sometimes too much affection with the amount he kisses you.
Even becoming a Spartan hasn't affected his drive towards you.
After all, he doesn't have the enhancements/augmentations older SPARTAN-IIs do.
I'm not sure if he'd keep you locked in the home or not.
Theoretically he might and just have food and necessities delivered to you.
Buck definitely calls you as often as he can.
Dare wonders if she's dodged a bullet due to seeing how obsessive Buck is over you.
She even tries to ask Buck about it, making Buck immediately shut her down.
"I'm doing this for their protection, they're happy with me. What are you trying to do, take them from me?"
Buck's obsession starts showing through cracks in his personality.
Poor you barely gets to go outside when he's gone and he calls so often.
Buck gets worried when you don't answer his calls.
If he isn't in the middle of a huge mission, he'll probably even go to check on you.
Eventually Buck leaves Team OSIRIS and reforms Alpha-Nine.
But you don't join.
No, now after the Cortana conflict he stays with you much more often.
The good news is you can go outside now.
The bad news is you no longer have privacy.
Buck isn't a yandere to kill humans.
Not unless they push him.
So for the most part he is like a helicopter spouse, never leaving you alone and smothering you with affection.
After all... he's been away from you for too long...
It's about time you two catch up, right? Isn't that what good spouses should do with each other?
