so i've seen you post about alaria a few times now and i was wondering whether you felt like telling us a bit more about her?? 👀👀
wait anon this made me feel so giddy 😭 thank you so much for asking, my heart is so full rn <3<3<3<3<3<3
Tumblr media
ok so her full name is Alaria Otovaan Varis and she’s a 501 (this number was a joke at first but not anymore lmao) year old Nilfgaardian sorceress. i’ve been building her for a few months now but she already existed in my head for a least 3 to 4 years and now she’s my most developed OC ❤️
she’s a patriot through and through BEFORE her redemption arc, meaning she would do anything for the empire. she was born in the Lower Alba, the heart of the empire, making her a “real” Nilfgaardian, unlike, say, Cahir, who is not considered a real Nilfgaardian. I tried to make her entire existence canon compliant even though I still haven’t finished the books but (and this is me summing things up) she comes from a family with a relevant social status and, like most sorceresses, was abused (by her mother, which not only destroyed her self worth but also made her extremely wary of mother figures throughout her entire adult life. she developed some sort of aversion to anything connected to motherhood even though she still cares about children; her redemption arc also revolves around her embracing her more caring side, since she is a woman who loves with her whole heart and wears her heart on her sleeve, against her better judgment) as a child. i guess you could say her “villain” (it’s more nuanced than that) origin story begins after she burns her own house to the ground, after a particularly unpleasant episode with her mother, and is taken to the Academy.
she “graduated” top of her class in the Imperial Magic Academy; specialised in the forbidden arts and pyrokinesis (fire magic) and became a professor at the same academy. she was a professor for a very long time (which awakened her more nurturing side; she loves her students and would d word for them) but moved away from it when she decided to pursue what she thinks is her true calling, i.e. her research regarding using the forbidden arts (such as necromancy) to fully heal people.
i have. like. a whole document full of information about her (what she values most in people/what she dislikes the most; her fears; her desires; what she likes/hates about herself etc) but i will not info-dump bc that would definitely be too much 😭 right now i’m focusing on her relationships, platonic and romantic, which, depending on who we’re talking about (she cares for both keira metz and philippa eilhart romantically), have either helped her grow or made her feel extremely frustrated and low-key heartbroken. I don’t want her existence to revolve around her love interests though so she’s very much still her own person with her own goals and secrets. some other sorceresses also gave her a taste of what it means to not be alone for the first time in her life as they became her friends. I think about her everyday 😌👍
if you have any, like, specific questions abt her i would be more than happy to talk about it. I just have SOOO much that it’s kind of hard to come up with a short reply which is why I’m trying really hard not to info-dump rn 😔
here are some words that i use to describe her
brutal; passionate; callous (before redemption arc. she just has no idea how to navigate her emotions overall, meaning she can't find the strength to take other people's feelings into account when she's battling her own demons); critical; demanding (when it comes to herself); disillusioned; guarded; hard (before); intimidating all of the time and charming most of the time; lustful (but not in a bad way, she just knows what she wants); fair; mistrusting; over-thinker; proud; sarcastic; uptight; vengeful to anyone who crosses her; loyal; mannerly; elegant; tender (after redemption arc); caring; protective; patriotic to a fault

.......will u stab me if i say lugina
No, I am not going to stab you, but I did write a lot of raw opinions and not all of them are pleasant. Just a forewarning.
Why I like them: I dunno, I guess his sword’s got a nifty ability and he’s memeable with him being the most asshole character, yet being the victim of unfortunate funny inconveniences like the boulders and shit. I also like how we develop him, if that counts.
Why I don’t: I swear, I could write at minimum a 2-page paper as to why Lugina Beil’s raw canon character genuinely frustrates the hell out of me. A lot of it being more directed at how he’s written and the implications of the world he’s written into and how it reacts to him rather than about him, the fictional character, if that makes sense. A lot of missed potential if I were to compare him to other characters of other series who started out similar to him, but developed more noticeably for the better over the course of their own plots. Like, the development of a story-prominent heroic-aligned selfish asshole character into someone who isn’t afraid to show he cares about his comrades and will lay down his life for them, yet still retains a certain “edge” to him is such a tried-and-true method to me when it comes to development satisfaction in my experience, that to see it not happen to a certain effect/extent is whiplash. The best comparisons that I can think of at them moment are like, Gajeel Redfox and Laxus Dreyar from Fairy Tail and Jean Kirstein from AoT. I’m serious, like, read up on them, then compare them to Lugina. Gajeel’s even a father-to-be in Fairy Tail rn, and he’s both ecstatic and very protective of his partner. I know I keep comparing Lugina to other characters of other series with their own developments, but still, like, I could also name a bunch of conjectures as to why Lugina doesn’t seem to go down a similar path. In short, now that it seems his tale is finished without so much as a follow-up, I dislike how the writers wrote Lugina more than Lugina the character himself.
Favorite episode (scene if movie): Lugina and BF1 Summoner vs Gazarva at the end of BF1.
Favorite season/movie: I liked him best during Arcs 2 and 3. More Arc 3.
Favorite line: “ [Liomerg] wasn't just talking about physical strength, he meant mental strength as well... Basically the only thing holding [Karl] back is himself. For all that he tries to handle things himself without depending on others, he doesn't have the resolve to see it through on his own. You call that kindness? That's just weakness!”--Estria, area after Shusui is killed by Mora. An “asshole’s got a point” moment.
Favorite outfit: BF2 Armor and that picnic art where he’s hogging all the spaghetti and Seria’s kicking him in the head for it. You know the one.
OTP: Really, it’s only with OCs, or in My Verse, where I flesh things out considerably between him and Yurika. If Alim bothered to fill in more about his actual relationship with Yurika, I could’ve actually put them here. I also ship him with Unlearning Toxic Masculinity, Some Fucking Therapy, and Having Better Character Development Based Of Other Examples I Know From Heroic-Aligned Characters Who Started Out Similar To Him, but we can’t have nice things in this fandom. Maybe him and Bertz if Bertz weren’t closeted or whatever his deal with Lugina is.
Brotp: Deadass, I don’t know. Maybe Karl post-BF1?
Head Canon: I still think he whittles wood as a hobby and one of his best projects is a full-scale replica of Sky Harbinger. And that he wholeheartedly and openly enjoys sea shanties. Oh, and that he definitely still invited BF1 Summoner and Tilith to his wedding. Hell, he explicitly said they had to come because no fucking way those two are gonna miss out on this. Plus, Tilith wouldn’t let him hear the end of it if he didn’t.
Unpopular opinion: I’ve said some piece of this in the one I did for Sasha, but wait! There’s more! And this is more of a general statement, but I really do think that there’s a lot left out/missing/glossed over in terms of BF2′s writing that would make things a lot more well-rounded. Plus, I think I’ve also already said some things that belong here under “Why I Don’t”. Also, only reason why Alim had Lugina be the only main cast member to start a family other than to show that he’s “developed for the better over 20 years” is because they made Karl and Paris still horny for BF1 Summoner and Seria...Seria, idk about. Probably applying the “No Guy Wants an Amazon” trope with her.
A wish: That Alim didn’t bull-rush Brave Frontier 2 and actually took efficient time to develop the story more so it’d have a longer shelf life? Then we’d at least be able to hopefully see more of the cast as a whole, and hopefully actually develop instead of what was probably squishing everything down and throwing in everything no matter how developed it was? Because BF2 seems more like an Afterword that’s trying to be a proper sequel. I’d wish for more between the games development, too and that Alim isn’t done working with Lugina and the rest of them.
An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen: Some implication/confirmation/allusion that Lugina cradle-robbed Yurika; any indication that there’s something off about their relationship beyond what’s traditionally considered healthy/normal married couple behavior plus what we’ve been given.
5 words to best describe them: Wish he was written better.
My nickname for them: Rat Man/Bastard. Potato Bastard.

i replayed kz again tonight and managed to beat it in 4 hrs instead of 11 !!! which is rly cool imo, i think i got a max of like 50 deaths or less for the full run ??? i was just playing regularly but usin the prism blade for the cool blood effects, not in speedrun mode for the counter, and i managed 2 drag my friend into hyperfixation hell with me :} but also i have some thoughts and opinions im not rly sure how to compile in a meaningful way, so here’s the like. pure brain-down-on-blog post version under the cut. if this gets auto-tagged into the real actual tag for this game im very sorry for my hubris im just. thinking emoji
so id like to start this with the final boss makes me SO sad :( like yeah she doesnt have much dialogue but idk she just makes me so sad. she’s so desperate and she Knows shes going to lose and im just like. no!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you’re so cool!!!!!!! Please Be My Friend We Can Work Together. I Know A Guy :c like usually final bosses are like weirdly emotional for me but she was just SO COOL and realizing like WAIT THIS BOSS OPERATES UNDER THE SAME RULES I DO was just like WOW even if as i kept dying (and i think i spent like... 3 hrs on the final boss alone lmao the first time, i killed her on my third attempt this run which was very cool of me) i finally realized that she IS pretty repetitive and got all her patterns n variables down super easy, but like, fighting another null who Should for all intents and purposes be just as absurd and powerful as i am, and eventually being able to down her effortlessly, and then the withdrawal affects of the chronos kicking in as well, and its just like. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
dont even get me STARTED on that ‘to be continued’ like yeah there’s a dlc comin but the game mentions repeatedly that its just the first act which has me like OKAY. SPECULATION TIME (what am i speculating on? literally no idea im not even rly at the speculation phase im still in the WOW COOL VIDEO GAME phase) 
and i rly like the dragon/fifteen but the first time i saw him i was just like. who’s this f*llmetal alchemist looking bitch ??? what’s he doin here?? go HOME and controlling him is AWFUL i hate the dragon tape so MUCH >:C but also he’s like. cool. i want to know more about him n his plot 2 take down Juncture n the government n whatever. 
but also i was listen 2 Full Confession bc it’s just. what the heart wants rn. i need to be sad and caffeinated in order to get into the Writing Zone rn and then i was THINKIN like my friend mentioned while we were playing the dragon tape that the song that plays is very similar to Full Confession (which i had sent him earlier while i was losing my mind over the final boss) and then i was like. Hm. these are very similar but have such wildly different moods -- Breath of the Serpent is much more like. ‘you’re going to be afraid of me’ while Full Confession is like ‘i’m afraid of you’ and i think that the different Vibes from these two soundtrack bits about important Null characters is just like. WOW and i wonder how a version of it that was purely Zero’s might be. would it be more triumphant? more flat? what desperation or emptiness is in there that could be drawn out by this melody??? i dont KNOW and i can’t write music unfortunately but im just like AAAAAAAAAA
i also rly wanna know what snow has going on ??? like. shes clearly important. she is a vital npc. but Why. she didnt even rly do anything except Show Up???
fuck V. all my homies hate V. the motorcycle fight was a lot of fun tho i rly liked that section even if my therapist was mad at me afterwards
also i think elizabeth/the little girl is rly cute and the fact zero was just like. ‘hm. well guess i have a daughter now’ so fast w/ her (at least, with the dialogue trees me n my pal kept going down) and im just. So Hoping we can rescue her in the dlc :( i miss her so much and im so like. worried abt that like pls give me back my daughter you dumbasses i cant even read ur dialogue without my brain being like ‘yeah these r just squiggly lines, boss. gl’ 
i also want to believe that the masked men arent real (bc idk, it’s just easier for me to process that they’re the result of chronos withdrawal) but the problem w/ that is like. they definitely kidnapped elizabeth, and i want so desperately to believe that elizabeth IS real n that zero genuinely wants to protect her (and by extension, the part of himself that is still human) 
ALSO THE PSYCHIATRIST i was just like. Okay. I Must Get A Good Grade In Therapy. n kept being nice n cooperative and helpful to this clown ass and then THAT ENDING ??? like i didnt even get the Bad Therapist Ending i was just like. fucka you! attacka you with a rock! (i do however want to try the therapist boss it sounds like a lot of fun) but i just. i hate him! he sucks! find a better therapist zero u rly need one im sorry for ur problems disorder :( like hes clearly a guy who just works for the government n wants 2 keep a leash on our man 
n the contradictions, hes like. yeah ur killing everyone related to chronos so it can no longer be produced ♥ but dw ur special we totally wont just withhold chronos from you as soon as u finish ur tasks dw about it ♥ and its like. Hm. I Dont Think Thats Right !!!! 
also i wanna learn more about what Juncture has going on??? what are they like. Doing besides poisoning water n making lighters ?????? it’s clearly a lot 
also the art for this game is just so GOOD,,, like. i didnt rly notice a lot of the backgrounds my first playthrough bc i was just losing my mind the whole time trying to solve each puzzle but the second playthrough im just like. AAAAA. and the soundtrack? effervescent. groundbreaking. perfect. So Good 
and the GAMEPLAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh my GOD i was SO vibing with it, the difficulty curve was kinda extreme imo but as soon as i started like. Getting It? and started looking at each room less like combat/fighting and more like a puzzle that needed to be solved it made it so much easier 2 get into the headphase of ‘okay how do i clear this’ and it was just like. YOOOOOOOO
and zero is just a lot of fun 2 play as. legitimately everything about him is just so ridiculous. his dialogue options? ridiculous. his design? absurd. the implications that hes like. 22 and just having the worst 10 days of his life? mood, buddy. this guy likes samurai movies and card games and mushroom pizza and has worn the same outfit every single day for who knows how long and hes also a war veteran, an emotionless serial killer and a drug addict. and hes 22 and 5′10. literally NOTHING about those traits make sense together but here he is, just Vibing. 
i love him so much. im going to make a self insert oc that’s just giving him a friend who knows how to cook n is just like ‘oh wow, that’s rough buddy’ when hes like ‘i only feel alive when i kill people’ and conveniently knows how 2 get bloodstains out of things bc i think he needs that kind of person in his life since his like. therapist is conspiring against him n he keeps having 2 kill his friends 
also, unfortunately, i want to get every achievement, which i feel like is going to become hld....2!! where i get all but 1 of them and am stuck at 96% for 2+ years >:T

i started thinking about that gay bastard oc of yours. platano. can u tell me about him
omg u wer thinkgin about platano..... mr banana man... mr 4011. i am obsessed with the banana code srry i just got back from work (it was good :-D)
any way. um. im going below the cut. he kidnaps people and he murders people and i hate him because he’s also a massive weeb so. hm
HISTORY OF PLATANO... yea his name is spanish for banana
his father, pablo, will probably get a name change someday but i literally never think of his father since the only thing he did in platano’s backstory was disappear 
since platano’s world has characters based off like. fruits and vegetables (there aren’t really any limit to what the characters are based off of. it was in my lazy google translate name phase so we have like... a gay character named arcenciel who becomes dadlike through my powerful canon-changing touch. also arcenciel wears the colors of the rainbow as often as he can i haven’t figured out a good design for him since i’m not used to using more than 5 colors. he also owns a hat factory)
i think arcenciel and platano are friends they met when platano was like. 17 probably and arcenciel would be around uhhhhh ummmmmmm 21??? idk man but in canon he’s probably around 30 . yes i m saying “in canon” because i wrote a really dumb and horrible story back in 2018 arcenciel used to have HUGE internalized homophobia and i turned that into a running joke and i dislike that so that’s a reason why i’m not sharing the fun little story i wrote for my friends
(the best part of that story is when arcenciel threw his light-up rainbow heelies at platano, thus starting the boss fight which the main cast LOST.)
ok back to the topic at hand. platano.
i have a whole doc named platano where i just wrote drabbles about him so i’m going to summarize them
the first one was his friend, percisi (my only cishet oc he’s very short and very aggressive while also dressing in a soft-colored turtleneck since he’s based off of peaches) using a misunderstood form of satanism to summon satan. guess what percisi and platano summoned satan for. it was a manga update! wow
i won’t say the mangas name it was an inside joke
so platano was like “hey satan can i have this manga now please please” and satan went “sure just kill people for me” 
that determined platanos job for the next 7 or so years <3 wonderful. 
(it was basically me writing a backstory for a scene to happen in the main writing i wrote for my friends. he killed someone because someone else in the building was trying to summon satan. very confusing but okay i guess.)
i think right after that i wrote about platano meeting his boyfriend, sage, for the first time. i have horribly mixed feelings about their relationship since it’s very. Hm.
so platano kidnaps people to watch anime with him because all his friends left him and his best friend, mangue, is too busy being a dictator over the Land of the Fruits. i shit you not fruits oppressed the vegetables. i wrote that dynamic between the two because i was learning about the revolutionary war in US History. something like that at least
(the Land of the Fruits is not the official name)
on the topic of kidnapping people. guess who his favorite person was. sage. it was sage. so he tried to take sage often but they probably discussed Proper boundaries since everyone else tried to run away. hmm i am now going to write a bit right now 
“Platano,” Sage started. “Why do you keep kidnapping me? It’s rude and I hate it.”
“What else am I supposed to do?” The yellow-haired fool leaned on his sword, digging the tip deeper into the ground. 
“ASK ME IF I WANT TO HANG OUT??” 
“I can do that?”
“You keep making my dads worried.” Sage looked around the area, fidgeting with his hands. 
“Oh. Okay. Want to hang out? Watch some anime?” Platano paused for a moment, but managed to say “Maybe kiss?” before Sage got to answer.
“I- KISS??? We can watch anime together. We can go now.” 
Sage ushered Platano through a portal as fast as he could. 
His dads were never worried.
hmmm maybe that’s alright idk i’m a little tired so it’s probably a little out of character. sage probably isn’t that loud but i think it was trying to be the dynamic of “oh, we’re not dating” when they kiss every sunday at 5 pm by a romantic river scene 
he’s a character who is, at his very core, horrible and bad. he is portrayed in a way i DESPISE but i’m too lazy to correct it. his interest in sage actually started with me going “hmm i think platano would draw sage like this” then sauce giving me fun facts about his oc, sage, yea sage is sauce’s oc <3 epic win . so sauce gave me fun facts about sage and i was like “time to doodle these in platanos ‘art style’” when in reality it’s just the mockery of people just getting into an anime art style, with the chin so pointy it could cut a cake 
i might reread my old writing from 2018. i gotta agree with the judges for that year i did not write very well
it mightve actually been made in 2017 which would be FUCKIN CRAZY im gonna check rn 
yea it was started in 2018. february 14th... huh . finished it completely in june of that year it was 41 pages total and it’s not even double spaced how did i write something without double spacing it
OH MY GOD BOB IS GOING TO HIJACK THIS RANT JUST FOR A LITTLE
so bob is a fluffy little anthro cloud with a grey top hat and bowtie. he is amazing. i love bob. bob is another one of sauce’s character and mangue (mentioned earlier) was made by my friend jamie 
(you can always ask for their tumblrs but i’d ask them if its okay to share their tumblrs. i might just look at them and reblog their stuff cuz i like their art!!! maybe jamie posted a drawing she made recently on her blog but tbh i don’t think she would she’s more of a twitter user)
ok so im skimming thru UMG which is the story it stands for “Universe of Magic Gardens” and it was originally made for a prank on ponytown so people would go “what’s UMG” and my friends and i would be like “ur mom gay xDDDDDD” or something like that . horrible but i’m glad i’ve changed from . that.
here’s a bit i actually like AKLJFISJFIO
“What the actual FUCK, Ilkie?!” Arcenciel cringed in fear. “Put it back- it’s too ugly.” He pointed at Platano, whose arms were crossed. 
why is it bolded. anyway.
i just saw a part where eau used y’all... water cowboy moments <333 i really need to make refs for all of those old characters. all of my umg-related characters have to be my oldest-living ocs. 
i cant believe this is making me genuinely reread my old writing just to go “WJHFSIDAJKSFIOJ WTF????” 
some of the lines on it sound like something you would hear on like. a school bus or somethin 
looking at umg like “wtf how did i add so much Meat to this writing” bc most of my writing now is mostly quotations to progress the story (like the quickie i wrote earlier. i could add meat to it but im  tired lol)
OK THIS IS MORE GENERAL BUT MY FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS WAS WRITING HAIKUS FOR PORTALS. after you visit a place enough times it’s kind of just an instinct to open a portal there so you don’t have to recite a haiku 
uhh ok here’s another bit becuase im feeling like living la vida loca.  ur biggest regret should be “can you tell me about him” by this point bc i’ve written too much to go back now
He landed on his face once he was outside of the hat. Meko quickly walked over to the guest room, opened the Portals for Dummies book, and flipped to a page. It looked devious.
“Banana, mango,
Each tasting amazingly.
A taste of evil.” 
Meko did the dance on the page, it consisted of something that looks like it’s from an anime. A portal opened, the familiar scent of bananas and mangoes coming from it. With some hesitation, Meko stepped in. He quickly made it so only his head peeked in.
it wasnt bolded this time but i like it bolded. ok i understand how i added meat it was just shitty expired meat ALKFSJSHDAIUJKFEIODSJAK . it wasnt even that much meat DAMN. it just looked like more.
actually that’s all i will write. i could  do more w platano but yea at his base he is a blonde twink who kills people because he wanted a manga but now he’s friends with a dictator. woo! wow. amazing character writing. i cant wait to get motivation to rewrite everything and make platano a good villain (he will still be very interested in anime sadly. idk why around that time i liked making characters who were obsessed with anime i didn’t even watch it much myself. i think it was because i wanted to put capes on them)

The Weakness
ANYWAYS I wanted to write out and explore a really fucked dynamic that Tai and I came up with for our OCs,,,, pls no yelly at me! or Tai! Plus I havent posted writing in a long time, even tho I uhhhh wrote this back in like... August? I think. Im pretty happy with how this came out, you get a p good sense of Bryce here. 
The Subway Witch, Jeremy and Nilla belong to Tais-Sketchbook on DeviantART (I cant remember if u have an art tumblr rn AHH)  Bryce, Morana, and Sebastian belong to me
Content warning for: a couple homophobic slurs, violence, gun violence, school shooting stuff, yeaeeaaahhhhh
--------
Whack, went the baseball bat, against Bryce's upper back. Whump, went Bryce against the ground. His gun, a sawed off shotgun, left his grip as he fell, landing a couple feet away. A swift kick to the ribcage moved him further from his weapon. Bryce rolled onto his back, wincing slightly. He knew he was going to be sore as could be in the morning. He'd make it out again, he's been in worse situations and he knew that the Subway Witch's Hunter wouldn't kill him. He never did. 'Never have figure out why, the fuckin' jackass.' Bryce thought, as he propped himself up on his elbows and locked eyes with Jeremy.
A few years ago. The talent scouter was at the school, looking for promising young sports players to give scholarships to. Jeremy was nervous but excited, baseball was one of the few things he truly and honestly enjoyed, and the chance to get a scholarship for it made him ecstatic. The opportunity to show off his skills was just after lunch. He waited for the bells to ring, but instead the fire alarm began its shrill cry. Gunshots rang out in the hallways of the high school, students scattering into the classrooms and hiding behind desks. Homemade pipebombs sent shards of glass and nails flying into the lockers, some unlucky students getting struck by the shrapnel. Smoke began to cloud the hallways. Strutting through the halls, the gunman took quick aim at the fleeing students and squeezed the trigger. The shot left the barrel and hit one boy in the thigh, severing the artery and dropping him like a stone to the ground. He was left to bleed out like a stuck pig. Jeremy ran through the halls, trying to make sense of the chaos. He turned the corner, and saw the doors leading out to the back of the school. Oh, thank god- He thought, but his thoughts were cut off by a gunshot behind him, and a rapid pain in his shoulder. Hitting the ground as a second shot went off, Jeremy clutched his shoulder and yelled. Laughter greeted his ears. "Oh man, I wish I coulda seen your fuckin' face!" The gunman strode towards him, and kicked Jeremy in the stomach, the gunman's duster flaring out behind him as he did so. "Bryce, what are you doing?!" Jeremy asked, shaken at the realization of who's responsible for the carnage gripping the school at this moment. "Yeah, I'm selling girl scout cookies. The fuck's it look like I'm doing, dipshit?" Bryce snapped. "Get outta here, you fuckin' dramatic bitch." Jeremy hesitated, before scrambling to his feet and running to the doors as Bryce let off a wild shot at him. Stumbling out the doors, he looked around wildly for help. Jeremy's shoulder never did heal properly. Present day. Bryce glared up at Jeremy, then turned his head to the side and spat, a small amount of blood mixed with saliva. "The fuck do you want?" Bryce hissed. Jeremy grabbed Bryce by the collar of his duster and slammed him against a tree. "This is all your fault!" Jeremy yelled, nodding towards his injured shoulder. "I lost my chance at life! All because you had to be a loser and shoot innocent people!" Jeremy shoved the school shooter to the ground. Bryce rolled away from the tree, sitting up back where he started. "Then why the fuck don't you finish your sloppy work then?!" Bryce snapped back. "You never kill me! Just attack me and then leave like a goddam coward! Why don't you just man up and fuckin' kill me already?!?" "Because I like you!" Jeremy shouted, his facial features quickly filling with regret. "You what?" Bryce hissed, before laughing sharply. Jeremy turned tail, aiming to run, run far away. As soon as Jeremy turned around, Bryce lunged for his shotgun. Swinging it around quickly, he pulled the trigger and let loose the buckshot. Jeremy's legs didn't stand a chance. They buckled out from under him, pain flaring through both. He tried to stand and collapsed again, instead trying to crawl backwards, at least until his back met a tree trunk. "You're goddamn useless, ya know that? This is fuckin' rich, liking the guy who's shot you! Who apparently ruined your whole damn life! Fuckin' useless fag." Bryce left, leaving Jeremy to ponder his fate. He'd tell one of the other proxies that the Witch's Hunter had been shot, and was waiting to die. Kicking the old wooden door to the farmhouse wide open, Bryce puffed his chest out. "What's got you all proud?" A brunette grumbled, busy sharpening her combat knife at the kitchen table. "I found the Hunter's weakness. It's me. I'm his goddamn weakness. Fuckin' gay. That's why he never finished his work and killed me." Bryce scoffed. "Useless fucker." "Speaking of useless, did you drag him back here for harvest, or did you fucking leave that for someone else again?" Break Away snarled. "Fuck, you think I'm touching that homo? You're hilarious. Nah, I left him for Chains to drag in, assuming that dumbass can find the Hunter. I'm fuckin' going to bed." He shrugged his duster off, draping it over a chair and headed towards the stairs. Climbing up the rickety steps, the boards creaked and groaned, alerting the other proxies someone was back. "My room better be fuckin' void of the others I swear-" Bryce nudged the door open, only to see a girl in a dirty dinosaur onesie curled up on his bed. Closing the door quietly, he tip toed towards his bed. "For fuck's sake, 'Nilla..." He mumbled. "Why you always gotta be in my room?" Lifting her carefully, he deposited her on her cot in the room, careful not to step on the scattered ammunition. 'She must have been trying to build towers again, Christ...' Bryce stretched out on his bed, his torso sore and a small grin on his face. Soon the Hunter would be dead, his organs harvested for the Field Children's master and the body thrown into a river. Soon he wouldn't have to deal with Jeremy ever again. If only Chains had found the Hunter first.
