(tossing out an ad for shorter threads to get back in the swing of things on Diana here. Give this a like if you’d like a starter!)

     ; ⌁ Even as the other woman relinquishes her embrace on the Thanagarian, the surprise present in her expression still does not fade. In fact, it only seems to increase as the wondrous hero keeps her hands on the redhead’s arms, listening intently to her words. So, this Diana is from another timeline after all; while it all starts to make sense considering how she acted towards Shayera earlier…

     Well, perhaps some small part of the alien had hoped this would be the same Diana she knew from the Justice League.

     ❝ So that explains it, ❞ she finally begins, giving a weak chuckle.  ❝ Look, I know this may be hard to believe but me and you… We’re from different places. ❞

     ❝ Or more like different timelines. Look, I haven’t died or anything and I’ve never been a part of your… ‘Furies’. You, however, were a part of the Justice League… With me. ❞

There is disappointment in her face, a flash of anger muddles her expression for a moment and when it passes the smile had all but vanished. Fingers tense up as they ball into fists and Diana inclines her head.

“I apologize.” Her words came out bitter but as she raises her head again to meet the other woman’s gaze, it finally sunk in that she was speaking to someone who was in all manners a stranger.

“Allow me to reintroduce myself.” She offers a hand again as she stands up straighter, puffing her chest out. “I am Diana of Themyscira, ruler of New Themyscira, it is a pleasure to meet your acquaintance...”

“Shayera of the Justice League.” Of course the familiar atmosphere she had established before all but vanished. It was as if she were speaking to the other as a stranger, with all the formalities that her position implied.

“Hope is an evil and its effects are felt far and wide, for hope breeds only despair and serves only to prolong the torments of mortals. Why would you hope? Take charge of your own life, and prove that you are not some weakling to be controlled by the fates.” Thank the gods that at least hope remains locked inside the box.

Her heart thumped loudly in her chest as the woman strode forward with purpose. Her cape billowing behind her until she stood looking down at a very familiar pink-haired woman. Her expression stern as she held behind her the box of chocolate.

That foolish grin infuriated her so but just as she leaned forward to hand her the surprise, she felt a stab against her back. One shot against her back followed by another and another until her knees grew weak and she dropped against her. 

The Queen grabbed on tightly and her hot breaths came in erratic gasps as one by one the arrows dissolved into her. 

A moment to catch her breath. Another to lay her eyes on the woman she loved, and then she conquered her lips. Fingers gripping the other woman’s face tightly as she pushed herself against her.

So desperate was the kiss that it seemed as if a moment apart would have killed her. Their kiss lasted long, so long that she didn’t let up until she almost passed out from lack of air.

“My love, light of my life, it has been too long since I last saw you.” Hands met and fingers intertwined as she leaned her forehead against the other woman’s. “Let us never part again, my dear Rider.”

[baugris]

“give and take. that’s life.”

“How true, but I suppose that is the case. Still, I must wonder. What have I received for the death of my mother? For the death of my sisters?”

    “Ooookay. I seem to keep running into– and literally running into, women with several bodies at their feet. Mostly men. …Nope, definitely all men.” Barry shrugged, wide-eyed. “Typical day in Hive city for the Flash I guess. Hey, they’re not… dead, are they?” Seriously though, who was this Amazon of a woman?

“Well well well, another one come to save his pathetic sex.” The sword dripping with blood stood still by her side as she offered him a smirk. Her grip tightening around its handle.

“Come on then, boy. Prepared to join them?”

Bobbi scrunched up her nose, pursing her lips, head cocked to the side. Were there police in this place? Was there even law and order? She kept her questions to herself            she was ill prepared for any sort of conflict especially with someone yielding a sword. That was certainly a statement weapon if there was one. 

                    ❛  An abhorrence?  ❜ what a vocabulary. ❛  If I ask why, are you going to swing that sword around again?  ❜

“Even the most merciful of the gods would punish those who ask foolish questions, but my time is not so sacred as theirs.” She’s certainly looking down on the woman, but just a bit. Not enough to completely ignore her at the very least.

“But I thought it obvious. He is a man, his kind causes nothing but trouble wherever he goes.”

     ☆! ❝ Maybe I should curl my hair for once? It’s already nice and voluminous but since I’m meeting with a friend soon maybe it would be good to dress up a bit? ❞

“That would make for quite a surprise, I’m sure. Though I hardly see the point, would hair really change you so much?”

[baugris]

mimuspolyglottos:

           Bobbi attempted to mask her shock, but her eyes still went wide and mouth gaped despite herself. ❛  No, I’m not attacking you ; I’d say this is more defensive. Self-preservation and all that.  ❜ She dropped her arms, letting them hang loosely at her sides. ❛  Sooo, this guy threatened you?  ❜

Seeing her lower her guard, the queen returned her favor. She lowered her sword and motioned towards the body behind her. 

“A threat. Perhaps he has said something to that effect, but his existence is an abhorrence in itself. He is the threat.”

❃ = dancing with them .

At her third fumble, Diana simply stopped. Letting go of their hands, she returned a quick frown. Clearly she wasn’t well versed in this type of dancing, but she’d never imagined herself to be that bad. “Well then, thank you for the dance.”

‘ let the world we dream about be the world we live in now. ‘

“How wise of you, I’m glad that you finally see things my way. I would be honored to consider you one of my furies, sister.”

[baugris]

“ I know I did what I had to do, but I hated it. “

“And you think I would forgive so easily, a ruler should seek to be merciful but a transgression as serious as this cannot warrant any.” Her brow creases further as she places the token over the last part of her plastic ship.

“You’ve sunk my battleship.”
