The Mender
You fix the bond before the problem
Your first move in conflict is toward warmth — a joke, a touch, an 'I love you' dropped mid-argument to remind you both whose side you're really on. You feel the relationship before you feel the issue, and you're the reason fights end in a hug instead of a cold war. Your superpower is repair: you keep the connection alive through the rough part. Your blind spot is that a smoothed-over problem isn't a solved one — patch the same crack often enough and resentment seeps in underneath the niceness. The growth move is to let the hard conversation finish before you reach for the peace offering.
