Back on my Junker Queen bullshit, but it's the Painful Stuff.
Junker Queen will not get a quiet goodnight. That's fine, she's the Junker Queen, she wasn't ever going that way.
Her best case scenario: she dies in fire and glory, a pyre that lights the night. Cut down before it gets worse.
Because the Reckoning is fought every four to six months. And it's a fight to the death.
As she gets older, gets slower, are these contestants getting younger? It's a fight to the death, every time, and she's getting fuzzy in one eye, the injuries don't heal like she used too. The ringing in her ears is getting louder. No, don't give her that practical 'maybe you should stand down' shit, she's a Junker, yes she's going back in the ring, so what if her hair goes grey -
So it's the hope it's a hell and fury battle, rage, rage against the dying light. Because otherwise, her fingers can't hold Gracie like she used to, she's got a cough she can't shake and she insists it's sand, everyone says it's sand, and she and everyone knows it's not. She was young when the core blew, who knows what she absorbed in the aftermath, out in the wasteland?
Junkers have Kings, but they don't have heirs, their way is the oldest way, succession is the bloody hands of the next, and she's got to pick if she wants it at the hands of some great battle or a young buck she couldn't pick apart from the thousands of others that she's cut down until it was her turn. Will it be earned? Maybe.
But she'll never make it to Ana's, Rein or 76s age. That isn't the Junker way, and she wouldn't it any other.
