I'm going to start this by saying I think your Rumlow is really good; you tag out and you keep with threads until they naturally finish.
That being said, I feel like you're playing him way too sexually than icly. He didn't show much of that in his canon, and I know everyone has wriggle room, but it feels like every thread has some of flirting, hitting on, or sexual innuendo in them. Just talking about a tail with Chase and it's already "going places". I do feel that needs to perhaps be looked into because it makes your character a bit uncomfortable to approach sometimes. Yes, I know, it's Hell, surrounded by killers and nazis and whatever. But it feels like Rumlow is just being used as a vessel to hit on hot people by this point and I felt being honest would be better than just avoiding Rumlow altogether.
Hello! I'm sorry you feel that way, but when you have a character with a limited canon, you have to work with what you have. As such, the headcanon I have with Rumlow is that he's a chameleon. He modifies his behavior to suit whatever setting he exists in. This is evident in canon as his demeanor changes from when he's still under cover on STRIKE and when he's revealed as HYDRA.
That being said, he has game CR with Chase that they are in a sexual relationship, so naturally, innuendo is going to occur. As far as others go, he flirts because it's a very easy way to manipulate people, which is how he gathers allies. If your character isn't interested in such things, shooting him down is a pretty quick way to get it to stop. He won't be interested in pursuing that avenue as it won't gain him anything.
I appreciate the feedback and giving me a chance to explain my motivations. Please let me know if this doesn't help you understand, or if you have any other issues you would like to bring up. Thank you!
