❛ welcome to night vale ❜ post: meme.

Imogen isn’t even in the ground yet, for all Kenzi knows her body is still at the coroner’s having bullets removed while her parents try to pull themselves together to make arrangements. It hasn’t been a full day but the other girl’s absence has already carved a hole for itself and she can’t comprehend how Dex could suggest she even still has a home.

HOME. She sits silently in the warehouse wondering how a word could so quickly lose all meaning, or how it could fade to something like a memory. Kenzi ignores the ache in her bones, her very being, at her lack of movement over the last handful of hours, the day’s events playing on a loop in flashes.

She doesn’t remember waking up, she doesn’t remember anything before red and blue lights and authoritative voices asking shaken, crying people about what had happened. She remembers getting a glimpse at the body, at the woman she loved painted red - she hardly noticed the holes in her frame. Six shots, she remembers someone saying six shots had been fired. She doesn’t remember screaming, she doesn’t remember trying to push her way pass officers and caution tape or what came after. But she must have told them who the lifeless girl was because during her next moment of clarity she remembers Imogen’s parents holding her so tightly that she’s sure they were the only thing keeping her on her feet.

Kenzi doesn’t know how she got to the warehouse, doesn’t remembering telling the team; she doesn’t know how she could have ever been capable of saying what happened aloud but she must have because she doesn’t think she’ll ever forget the sound of Kianna’s startled sobbing that began with something that sounded a lot like gagging or the way the woman’s hands fell over her mouth and stomach as if she could force the pain to settle. It was the least gracefully composed she’d ever seen the young CEO. She distinctly remembers the silence from Dex, the only time she thinks she’ll ever find him speechless.

It had been hours since the news had informed the world that this was the work of the hitman, his calling card left on the rooftop across from the movie theater, it had been hours of her motionless and silent, hours of ignoring calls from both her family and Imogen’s. Hours since either of them had tried to speak with her, that was until Dex voiced concerns for her safety as well. Something in the part of her mind not entirely consumed by the emptiness Imogen’s death brought knew that she wasn’t in danger. This was his way of warning her not to get in his way again because he knows who she is, who she cares about - or maybe it was his way of challenging her to a sick sort of game. She didn’t know or care because for the first time in hours it wasn’t sorrow weighing her bones down but instead, Kenzi had a fire igniting in her stomach and she knew one thing for certain,

“ I’m going to KILL him. ”

@becamenight ↺ liked for a starter !

“ Jesus fuckin’ christ, woman for the last time I am not the raider you’re looking for. So help me God. ” Beaten as she was, she’d lied neither before or after the fight. If a ‘ fight ‘ was what it could be called and not, instead, Zelda attempting to get away from this damned vigilante of sorts. “ Are you blind? ”

She inspects the woman before her, unable to ignore her claims of being falsely accused. Nyx may have a reputation for being heartless or a cold-blooded killer, but she lived by a code. She never took the life of someone she did not think deserved it. Upon closer examination, her features weren’t right -

“ Apparently. My apologies, I don’t know why my team put me on your trail if you weren’t my target. ”

#caeloms #❛ my time here's a little unclear ❜ universe: undetermined.#❛ a story of survival in parts ❜ post: interactions.#in an apoc. verse she'd be out even more often. would rarely ever be kenzi anymore #would probably be consumed by her alter ego #but hell yeah apoc. verse just tell me if there are any specifics about it yknow

❛ welcome to night vale ❜ post: meme.

She’s silent for a moment as she attempts to decipher what exactly she meant. Her eyes were focused on the other woman while Kenzi absentmindedly fiddled with the bracelet she was wearing. And after quiet contemplation, she comes to the conclusion that she’s never going to figure out what she means on her own so she decides it’s time to wing it,

“ You want to earn… a good death ? Or is it that you want to have earned the right to finally rest ? ”

so i feel like going on a bit of a rant about this site redbubble, basically its a site where artists put up their designs to be put on other things like t-shirts or cups or phone cases or whatever and then you can buy it like yknow just that basic sort of thing, well i’ve ordered from them twice and both times the images on my shirts were fucked up. for the one order it was so disgustingly out of registration i wanted to scream wondering who the fuck gave the okay for that to ship. the second order was out of registration like a motherfucker and the smaller text at the bottom of the shirt suffered from it because the whites being out of registration cover the red ink making that part of the image bleed and making it hard to tell what it even said, it was fucking ridiculous. both times i sent them photos and a detailed report of just exactly what was wrong, both times they sent me back basically identical messages saying it was a problem with the uploaded image and that getting a re-order would result in the same issues so i got a refund, which yknow good. or it would have been good if i was anyone else who didn’t understand they were feeding me some bullshit. at this point i feel it’s worth mentioning that i am a screen printer who spends 8+ hours every mon-fri printing designs on t-shirts, hoodies, tanks yknow all that good stuff so i know what the fuck i am talking about, something i mentioned in both my initial complaints and my replies to their emails and yet they insisted on bullshitting me. however, in their defense, their messages for both occasions were basically identical so they probably weren’t even reading what i was sending them and just have some sort of automated response/scripted response they send for these types of things so yknow it's not just lying it is also shitty customer service coming into play.

so for anyone who doesn't understand how they were lying or how this works let me explain; they threw the art department and/or original artist under the bus, trying to make me think they were the issue but that’s not how it works. like okay sometimes things are the art department or artists fault but not in the case of being out of registration or the image bleeding ( at least in most cases ). the first order was a shirt that was just white ink and when screen printing you almost always have a base white and then a second white screen to make it brighter and smoother looking so in the case of the first order the printer didnt register their white screens properly so they weren’t printing in entirely the same places, but it was so out that honestly i don’t know how any half decent printer could have overlooked it but in order to do a fix for a job that is only white on white you only need one screen. you’d hit the one white screen, flash dry it and then hit the same screen again which would have taken all chances of a reorder being out of registration away which means them telling me a reorder would provide the same results makes me think they are either huge liars or they do not understand anything about a huge part of their business and therefore are just idiots. in the case of the second order, basically the same thing. it would have been a three screen setup for the job ( either it’d be 1st white screen, 2nd white screen and then the red ink screen or it would’ve been 1st white, red ink, highlight white screen ) and it would mean they really didnt give a fuck about properly registering everything to let it bleed like that - bleeding is just when the ink kinda runs together when printed over another color which usually occurs when something is out of registration or it has too much pressure on it when being printed. basically to do a reorder for that one all they would have had to do is set up the base white, hit it twice and then hit the red AFTER MAKING SURE EVERYTHING IS IN REGISTRATION but instead they tried to sell it being an art issue to me both times.

bottom line is, this is just my own personal experience of my only two times getting something from there but if i were you i’d steer clear of redbubble unless you like low-quality products and being lied to.

“I know what I saw.“

❛ welcome to night vale ❜ post: meme.

These clandestine meetings between her and officer Rogers were becoming commonplace, which was a risk. She didn’t want the honorable detective being linked to the city’s bloody, avenging angel. Especially not in the context of passing along information to her to help her better prepare and locate criminals she might very well end up killing, his career would be over. He’d be disgraced or worse, locked up for being an accessory to her bloodstained path - he’d be jailed for being her friend. The risk he kept taking was no small thing, and she appreciated it more than she’d ever be able to say and she was grateful for any intel he could pass off that would point her in the right direction to protecting their city but this. Honestly, what he was describing to her sounded a little insane, even to the vigilante with a freakin’ ENCHANTED bracelet.

“ I’m sorry, I don’t want to sound like I’m doubting you, Matty. You’ve always given me good information but this is.. just a little hard to wrap my head around, is all. ”

✖: A trait they despise in people.

there are a lot of things that people do that bother the fuck out of kenzi, it didn’t use to be like that but she’s changed into someone a little more irritable and short-tempered, but there are two things that get to her more than most things,

1). NAIVETY. but it’s more like she just gets frustrated with people who show a naive way of thinking or acting around her because she was naive once, she thought she could play at superhero without losing anything - but she lost everything because she was young and dumb and naive and whenever she comes across someone who acts in that way she just sees how far they can fall as a result of being too naive in life, she sees herself arriving at the movie theater/crime scene where she lost imogen.

2). she can’t stand people who insist on explaining why they weren’t wrong or just trying to justify their actions to her instead of owning up to being wrong or saying sorry and moving on. and admittedly this one is a little unfair because she has been guilty of doing this in the past and will probably do it again in the future.
