i do enjoy "living weapon" characters but specifically living weapons who did in fact do absolutely horrific things which at least a part of them enjoyed and thought was good and right at the time, and that no amount of not knowing any better or guilt they feel in hindsight will ever make up for. i love living weapons who are "irredeemable", and no it's not their fault that they were made that way or pointed in the directions they were by the hand that wielded them, and yes they are victims, but so were their victims. living weapons who some people will never be able to forgive, but who still wake up every day and try to do better than what's expected of them. a sword that uses its blade to cut wheat to make bread for the people who once lived in fear of its arc falling on their heads.

i absolutely love that if you call diana girl at any point in time with any context , she will HATE it.

the one thing that always has to be reminded is that diana could have chose to stay permanently in themyscira and really only ever live there. breathe there. defend the island. it's not what she was made for , she was made to be a peacekeeper between humanity and the gods. with the gods failing miserably. she'll never feel at peace or like she's doing what she's supposed to be doing unless it's this. the amazon doesn't quite answer , a finger comes up to prod , perhaps , the greasiest cheeseburger she has ever quite laid eyes on. when she does look up , her smile is soft , her blue eyes are sweet.

He’s no warrior, not really, he’s just a farmboy who wants to do the right thing. He fights for the world, for those who can’t, and he fights for his world, his family.  Yet, despite his best efforts, the battle rages on. It feels endless. A wave that keeps pushing back, sometimes a small trickle of undercurrent, other times an all engulfing cascade made to drown out hope. Belief runs in his veins, but even Superman worries. There aren’t many who choose to bear the same responsibility, fewer still who he is able to be truly vulnerable with. However, Diana is one of those people. “Do you ever worry that we’re not doing enough?” / @torntruth (diana) / sc.

my mom is a 'let it go' person but i don't think she's ever had anyone actively try to ruin her or bully her because i'll be explaining my situation about how there's people on here that's actively trying to ruin 'my hobby' and then i'll compare it to work and be like so what if there's a bully at work trying to actively ruin your job? and she'll legit just go ... you gotta let it go. and the way my blood pressure spikes because you can't let it go. someone out there lying about you and ruining your name and creating fake scenarios to plant in people's head so that you suffer is NOT something you can let go. you can still be nice , you can still be positive , you don't have to start a fight yourself ... but they won't stop. they just won't stop.

it must be nice to never have an actual bully in your life , i'm so envious of those people.

at the current point in time , kristen can only get her hands on whatever closing that is presented to her. and most of the time that's by death. each outfit comes with at least a little blood. it's the decor at this point. the armor is shiny and full , she has no explanation for the armor. IT JUST IS .

demonic green eyes shift to the dragonborn and for a few seconds , kristen's features are completely blank. nothing.

then after a few seconds of just glancing at the stranger , she smiles. this slight thing , it doesn't even show off her fangs. the man certainly wouldn't have gotten far , but she does appreciate the random help. IT'S QUITE ENDEARING .

" i like the entertainment , " kristen just replies softly , this simple shrug of her shoulders.

@torntruth liked

ulysses dresses unapologetically EXTRAVAGENT. there's the flared collar and silver accents, gaping sleeves and red gloves. it's peacocking ( though within the smoggy throes of an obscured past, is it really? ). but they spend just as much time on their appearance as they do covered in grime; the bloodstained lapels and sooty dust giving their robes a grey-cast particularly visible in the sunlight.

POINT IS- they are unafraid of getting their hands dirty. when they wipe the viscera off their blade, they do it on the leg of their pants, and then tuck it back safely inside their scabbard.

" poor bastard, " ul drawls, red-tipped nostrils flared, " came all this way to rob someone just to end up with a knife to the spine. -are you alright? "

i love how even in my own brain ( thinking about the good mom ) that i forget kristen has a good mom too , it's just that she plays this double secret life so well that even i , the writer , sometimes forgets that she has a mom , dad , and older sister. and that the only one of them that has actually caught wind of kristen , by accident , is her sister. it's far less a double life like a cheating husband hiding his family , but more so like witness protection program in which she vehemently doesn't want kane to ever go back to that house and harm her family so she plays the long game so he'll never , never think he'll need to use them against her.

a thing i'll never stop adding as a headcanon onto characters who have had good mothers : humming or singing a childhood song their mother used to , sometimes randomly , sometimes to comfort a person they love. ( karlach , emily , diana )

idk it may just because of a sigourney fan but her character in holes would make a good fc for ... say ... rose of sharon cassidy's reappearance in new vegas for show events.

tbh when i say that kristen really dolls herself up with make-up and hair care and style , she does it as a way to hide , so if you see her more in the less make-up and simple t-shirts style a lot. she cares about you and trusts you. like from the bottom of my heart , i can't really explain very well that she was so manipulated by kane that she feels very strongly she can NOT be herself. kristen isn't even her real name , she'll just extremely rarely ever mention her real name ( this is to protect her family though ) and sometimes ... even forgets it. i just always need to reiterate that she went through a lot of trauma and that shows in so many things.

still a slight catch-up on karlach , but like/comment on this for a lucy starter because i'm really feeling her.

#i'm really slow with these #but they're coming.

[torntruth]

AIM FOR THE WINGS , VAULTIE. it just repeats in lucy's head , absolutely taking no offense to the nickname. it happens to be a nickname from a lot of people now. most strangers. she just takes the ghoul's advice now , sometimes twisting until it has a less violent and vicious edge. somehow always fitting her precious golden rule into the whole entire thing -- no matter what happened. she will not lose her will to help people.

lucy pulls the trigger ... and she hits the damn loud buzzing thing. more so in it's body , but she still clips the wing and the thing scatters around for a few seconds. just enough time for lucy to line up another shot. two more actually , both hitting it. it falls to the sand , twitches , doesn't move.

even with a proclivity for kindness , the ex-vault dweller has a tick for survival. sometimes she can be vicious. whatever it truly takes to survive. SOMETIMES. most times a person can survive without an evil edge. most times. another one is buzzing straight past the first fallen one and lucy starts stepping backwards. DON'T LET THEM STING YOU.

there's something of an understanding that's grown between the two of them and a voice in the back of his mind reminds him of a movie from his grandfather's time. a young girl hiring a man to find her father's murderer. maybe if the world hadn't gone to shit, he could have starred in the remake.

this whole situation really was like a fucking movie, wasn't it? a man, his dog, and a fucking little girl wandering the desert in search of things they've lost.

the ghoul nearly misses the low growl from the dog at his side, but the buzzing sound soon breaks through. fucking cazadors.

he pulls his own shotgun, turning to see that the girl's already prepared. "aim for the wings, vaultie!" he shouts at her. "and don't let any of those fuckers sting you!"

now , see lucy's mind was so full of events and thoughts that she sort of looked over the fact they have the same face. exact same face. it's the hair that's different. her father is heavy on her brain and she's just standing awkwardly in this nicer town on the way to new vegas , waiting for the ghoul that she missed the look-alike until the woman is garnering her attention. head turns fully towards the other , eyebrows raising.

lucy smiles though , someone patient and nice is rare and lucy always breathes it in when it happens.

" it's almost like looking in a mirror. " lucy just replies with a hint of enthusiasm. " you're prettier though. "

｡.｡:∞♡* oh no , no , no ... was she seeing things again ? she might not always have a full grasp of reality when it came to some things , but most of the time she could pretty much keep her head about her ; but was she losing her grip ? she is frozen where she stands , large eyes not able to leave the woman before her . she is screaming at herself to look away , since staring is so very rude , but ..... this was too much to ignore . clearing her throat delicately , she speaks . " e---exc---excuse me , miss , i ... i h---hate to stare and all , h--how---however .... " she trails off , swallowing down a lump in her throat . this could not be good , not good at all . or maybe she needs to actually sleep for once . ｡.｡:∞♡*
