I want Dead by Daylight’s The Huntress to hold me in her big, strong arms

She’s tall, she’s strong and she could kill me. That could be any woman I’ve fallen in love with recently, so I should try and narrow it down. Okay, so she’s got a killer attitude, she loves to hunt, is great at axe-throwing and she wears a rabbit mask with blood all over it. That’s right, I’m speaking about the Huntress.

I’ve mentioned before that I’ve become interested in Dead by Daylight thanks to YouTube streamers. Well, after finally bullying my friends to get the game so we could be scared together, we delved into the game for ourselves a few nights ago.

And uh, well, after much screaming, we came – okay, I came to the realisation that everything is a lot less scary if you find some of the killers hot. Sure, their going to put you on a hook and send you to an evil entity, but they also hold you in their big, strong arms and I think that makes it 100% worth it.

Outside of her wielding a bloody axe, being called Anna and humming a Russian song under her breath, I don’t know much about The Huntress. I do know that she wants to kill me a lot, probably more when playing as a male survivor (dare we say, a lesbian icon?), and that, despite all this, I want to be held in her big, strong arms.

When playing against The Huntress for the first time, my friend, Kelly, heard her humming, immediately went ‘oof, do not like the sound of that’ and promptly left me to die. It was there that I experienced an axe to the head and was carried away in The Huntress’ strong, bloody arms.

“This is heaven,” I said over the mic. “A tall, strong Russian lady is holding me.” Her vocals were also on point, but I was too busy staring at her very nice muscular arms.

“Your taste in women is going to get you killed,” Kelly replied, laughing the moment I was hooked and sacrificed to the entity. This was fine. I was playing Meg, a survivor a lot of the lesbian community in Dead by Daylight has latched onto. So, I think she probably died happy.

My taste in women aside, at least let it be known that I am no coward and would kiss a homicidal bunny-woman if given the opportunity.
