Endure and Survive

The teen followed the other inside, following him the medical bay. It was a familiar place. Not this exact one, but Ellie’s been in her fair shares of emergency rooms. Too many for a kid her age, but definitely not as many for someone with her credentials. When Jesse slowed down, so did Ellie as he turned to look at her over his shoulder. He certainly acted like the tough guy, and honestly if he was in a place like this, he probably belonged here just as she did. However, Ellie was appreciative of his help. She was sure she’d be in worse shape if he hadn’t intervened. 

When the man asked his question, Ellie didn’t hesitate to answer. “I was keeping my head down, ok?” It started out a bit defensive. She had attempted to follow his advice, but trouble always had a way of finding her. “I didn’t start the shit. They were the ones who walked over to me. I told them to leave me alone and one dude took my knife and started playing with it. It escalated from there.” Ellie frowned, looking down at her hand once again as the man continued to talk and explain what was going to happen. Easy stuff. 

In theory, that is. 

However, Ellie just shrugged and offered him a nod. “Yea I guess.” Her eyes looked back up, offering a lopsided smile in an effort to keep a somewhat positive attitude on the situation. “Thanks for the help….I really appreciate it.” 

     Jesse watched her, trying to maintain his hold on some distance and chewed at the skin of his lip; TENSION throbbing in his shoulders before he looked away. A few years younger than him, and that didn’t sit well with him either. ( Gabe made a promise ) “Don’t get used to it.” He muttered and stuffed his hand into his pocket, fingers curling around the small SMASHED book of matches he always kept tucked amongst the lint.     Being what they were made for a bad time to make friends. Jesse learned that the HARD way, if not the more unfortunate way seeing as most of the other Blackwatch members didn’t want to be his friend. Or be anything with him. It didn’t do them any favours going in with any expectations of kindness. The walk to the medbay was a quiet one, hands TIGHT in his pockets as he walked and kept himself coiled from anyone’s sight or welcome. Wandering up to the double doors, he CHECKED over his shoulders to see if she was still following.      “In here, Angela’ll fix you up, but then you better report it to Gabe. He’ll get you your knife back. An’ probably give hell to th’guys that gave you shit.”

❛  I dislike the feel of these woods.  ❜

❛  Unicorns? I thought they only existed in fairytales.  ❜

❛  This is a forest like any other. Isn’t it ?  ❜

❛  Let’s turn around. Hunt somewhere else.  ❜

❛  This is no world for you.  ❜

❛  Good luck to you, for you are the last.  ❜

❛  What do men know ?  ❜

❛  We are as old as the sky, old as the moon.  ❜

❛  We can be hunted, we can be trapped, we can even be killed but we do not vanish !  ❜

❛  Have you traveled very far ?  ❜

❛  Be a little respectful, do you know who I am ?  ❜

❛  Your name is a golden bell, hung in my heart.  ❜

❛  I would break my body to pieces to call you once by your name.  ❜

❛  In all your wanderings, have you seen others like me ?  ❜

❛  Have you seen the others? Where have they gone? Tell me which way I must go to find them.  ❜

❛  No, no, listen ! Don’t listen to me, listen !  ❜

❛  You can find the others if you are brave.  ❜

❛  What if they’re waiting for me ? In need of my help ?  ❜

❛  Well hello there little one !  ❜

❛  And just who might you belong to ? a pretty little thing like you ?  ❜

❛  In my heart I carry such a heavy load.  ❜

❛  And here I thought I’d seen the last of them !  ❜

❛  I know you. If I were blind I would know what you are.  ❜

❛  You wouldn’t have heard of me.  ❜

❛  It’s not much of a job for a real magician, but I’ve had worse.  ❜

❛  You’re mine. If you kill me, you’re still mine.  ❜

❛  Your death sits in that cage and she hears you.  ❜

❛  She’ll kill me one day or another, but she will remember forever that I caught her, that I held her prisoner. So there’s my immortality.  ❜

❛  You were out on the road hunting for your own death !  ❜

❛  He’ll not have you ! You belong to me.  ❜

❛  We are two sides of the same magic.  ❜

❛  You are safer here. You should thank me for protecting you.  ❜

❛  There has never been a spell on me before.  ❜

❛  It’s a very rare person who is taken for what he truly is.  ❜

❛  Will you help me ?  ❜

❛  You’re my last chance.  ❜

❛  Can you truly set me free ?  ❜

❛  I asked him a riddle and it always takes that lout all night to solve riddles.  ❜

❛  the spell was wrong but there was true magic in it ! try again.  ❜

❛  My dear you deserve the services of a great wizard but I’m afraid you’ll have to be glad of the aide of a second rate pickpocket.  ❜

❛  Okay, (name), I give up. Why is a raven like a writing desk ?  ❜

❛  She’ll kill you if you set her free !  ❜

❛  Don’t look back, and don’t run.  ❜

❛  You must never run from anything immortal, it attracts their attention.  ❜

❛  She chose her death long ago. It was the fate she wanted.  ❜

❛  You have no regrets as I do ?  ❜

❛  I’ve never seen anyone like you. Not while I was awake, anyway.  ❜

❛  I’m going where they are, to learn whatever they know.  ❜

❛  Take me with you ! for luck, for laughs, for the unknown.  ❜

❛  You could never have granted my true wish.  ❜

❛  I cannot turn you into something you are not.  ❜

❛  Hide yourself ! We’ll find each other later.  ❜

❛  Mind your heads now, it’s raining ninnies !  ❜

❛  Put me down you fool !  ❜

❛  I don’t like the look of him.  ❜

❛  That’s only (name)’s way, but she has a good heart.  ❜

❛  This is not happening.  ❜

❛  We’ll both be gentlemen of leisure in a months time.  ❜

❛  Oh, I love you.  ❜

❛  She shall never have you !  ❜

❛  We will perish together.  ❜

❛  Did you see me ? Were you watching ?  ❜

❛  Did you see what I made ?  ❜

❛  It’s gone now, but I had it !  ❜

❛  Where have you been ? Where have you been ! ?  ❜

❛  Where were you when I was new ?  ❜

❛  How dare you come to me now when I am this !  ❜

❛  It’s alright, I forgive you.  ❜

❛  You can’t come with us ! we’re on a quest !  ❜

❛  Well, you’re going the wrong way.  ❜

❛  You have all the power you need if you dare to look for it.  ❜

❛  What have you done ! ?  ❜

❛  The power will come to me whenever I need it, and one day! One day it will come to me when I call !  ❜

❛  You are an idiot !  ❜

❛  Don’t ! Don’t you hurt yourself !  ❜

❛  I can feel this body dying all around me !  ❜

❛  You are losing my interest, and that is very dangerous.  ❜

❛  I will keep nothing near me that does not make me happy.  ❜

❛  How would you know ?  ❜

❛  Well, just look at you !  ❜

❛  Come on, I’ll write you a reference.  ❜

❛  You have let your doom in by the front door !  ❜

❛  What are you looking at ?  ❜

❛  What is the matter with your eyes ?  ❜

❛  You may come and go as you please.  ❜

❛  My secrets guard themselves, may yours do the same.  ❜

❛  Please, let me help you. What can I do for you ?  ❜

❛  And then she looked at me and I was sorry I had killed the thing.  ❜

❛  For her sake I’ve become a hero but my great deeds mean nothing to her !  ❜

❛  I wish to be whatever she has most need of.  ❜

❛  You are cruel to him.  ❜

❛  He only wishes you to think of him.  ❜

❛  Who am I ? Why am I here ?  ❜

❛  I knew a moment ago, but I have forgotten.  ❜

❛  I was innocent and wise and full of pain.  ❜

❛  Now that I’m a woman, everything has changed.  ❜

❛  Why won’t you help me ? Why must you always speak in riddles ?  ❜

❛  I would tell you what you want to know if I could.  ❜

❛  I am always dreaming, even when I am awake. It is never finished.  ❜

❛  I would court you with more grace if I knew how.  ❜

❛  Drown out my dreams. Keep me from remembering whatever wants me to remember it.  ❜

❛  Words are always getting in my way.  ❜

❛  That’s all I have to tell you. That’s all I’ve got to say.  ❜

❛  I’m not a man of poetry. Music isn’t one with me.  ❜

❛  As if I didn’t have enough troubles.  ❜

❛  Well of course you’re of noble birth, anyone could see that.  ❜

❛  Love is slowing you down, my lady.  ❜

❛  It was pleasant enough at first, but it died quickly.  ❜

❛  There is nothing of yours that I desire.  ❜

❛  There is no movement of yours that has not betrayed you.  ❜

❛  I like to watch them. They fill me with joy.  ❜

❛  The first time I felt it, I thought I was going to die.  ❜

❛  Do you dare still pretend to be human ?  ❜

❛  It makes no difference. The end will be the same. I can wait.  ❜

❛  Shut up you pretentious kneecap !  ❜

❛  How would you like a punch in the eye ?  ❜

❛  It’s so nice to have someone to play with.  ❜

❛  Try me tomorrow. Maybe I’ll tell you tomorrow.  ❜

❛  Give it to me if you don’t want it but don’t throw it away !  ❜

❛  Give me the wine !  ❜

❛  You would have gone without me ?  ❜

❛  No name you could give her would surprise or frighten me.  ❜

❛  I love whom I love.  ❜

❛  I will go no further.  ❜

❛  Everything dies. I want to die when you die.  ❜

❛  Yes, that is my wish.  ❜

❛  I am a hero, and heroes know that things must happen when it is time for them to happen.  ❜

❛  A quest may not simply be abandoned.  ❜

❛  A happy ending cannot come in the middle of the story.  ❜

❛  What if there isn’t a happy ending at all ?  ❜

❛  There are no happy endings, because nothing ends.  ❜

❛  Do something ! You have the power ! I will kill you if you don’t do something !  ❜

❛  That’s what heroes are for.  ❜

❛  I’ve never had any friends before.  ❜

❛  Men don’t always know when they’re happy.  ❜

❛  I’m sorry. I have done you evil and I cannot undo it.  ❜

❛  No sorrow will live in me as long as that joy.  ❜

v: death seer

This verse revolves around the concept of Ellie having the power to see death before it happens. Think of it like she’s a psychic but only if she could see how you die. 

Ellie doesn’t have much control of this power either so she constantly sees the deaths of people around her. The radius is relatively large spanning around a mile. However focus to block out the visions shortens it but with lack of training doesn’t do much to prevent these visions from happening. Anyone that comes into the radius, Ellie will get a glimpse of their death. Her mind processes these quickly and enough for her to understand. What may seem to be a 5-10 second vision will be less than a blink of an eye.

She will not get a second vision of this person dying if they do not leave the radius unless their death changes in a substantial way. However if they leave and come back, their death is showed once more. 

The power is very distracting and distressing especially in densely crowded areas such as city areas, concerts, and school assemblies. 

She also has sub-abilities. She has more superhuman reflexes, and increased speed and strength. These powers can be improved on but speed and strength are not super human, just above average for the normal adult. 

This verse takes place during more modern times, however it’s premise will mostly be the same. 

Ellie’s background for this is that she is an orphan living in foster care. Her parents are unknown to her. She goes to high school and keeps to herself usually. 

She constantly wears baggy clothes because they brush more against her skin and the contact keeps her slightly more grounded. Outside of school, she’ll pull her hood on and keep her bandanna around her mouth. Ellie in this verse is apathetic to her surroundings, and almost a numbness to most events but she is sympathetic to the pain of others and does genuinely want to connect with people. 

[xpoeticus]

“ Way I see it, we got two options. One, we take the easy way out. It’s quick and painless. I’m not a fan of option one. Two, we fight. There are a million ways we could’ve died today. And a million ways we could die before tomorrow. But we fight for every second we get to spend with each other. Whether its two minutes… or two days… we don’t give that up. I don’t want to give that up. My vote? Let’s just wait it out. You know, we can be all poetic and just lose our minds together. ”

PSA

I am… not a chronologically locked rp blog.

That means that if you talk to me to establish that we want to ship our muses, or have a particular relationship or type of report between them, I am 1: totally okay with multiple threads of varying length and styles with you and 2: will probably jump around in the supposed ‘timeline’ of our muses relationships in order to keep things interesting/ make ask prompts work.

For example, we may be writing an intro thread with our muses, but if you wanna send me a thing for like… a first kiss that may happen months down the line (and shipping is what ur up for) go ahead and do it! The way I see it, separate points on a timeline are FUN to RP because then you can look back later and figure out how they connected/ try to work in little details that make them flow together.

@xendure discussed for a starter.

Body weight suddenly shifts, webbing wrapping around the street post as he lurches upwards with ease. Every movement is executed with grace, able to cut through the air to keep his momentum from slowing down. He’s searching for an opening, circling around the large robot that had appeared in the middle of the park, ripping down its surroundings with incredibly fluid movements. “Karen, anything?” He speaks to the AI that’s usually fully alert and active, but he’s noticed her sudden silence. He feels a buzz in his head, and his body moves on reflex, dodging a blow that would have caused a devastating injury. Eyebrows pull together, and he’s able to hear some static coming through. 

[enduriis-a]

There’s a tapping away at the keyboard as she shuts down the A.I. There were some protection against hackers with the suit but Ellie managed to find her ways around them. A press of a button and the camera feed was up. A smile cracking onto her face as she turned on the voice modulator. 

“Sorry. This ain’t Karen. She’s not gonna be much help.” Ellie finally spoke as she broadcasted her voice into the other’s ear. “But I can help out. See if you can guide it towards the lake and trip it in. The water should do the rest of the work for you.”

Secrets Have Consequences || 49scribes

@49scribes

There was a lot of thinking going on in these past few days. Her blade in her hands as the other rested. She was able to get the redhead stabilized and he was making progress. Lavi should be back on his feet in no time, however Ellie didn’t know how well he’d be able to stand. In her defense, Ellie had warned him. He had decided to keep the gear and honestly the girl wasn’t so sure if she would’ve reacted any other way to the reveal. 

A sigh escapes her as she continues cooking over the small gas stove, boiling the meat from the rabbits she caught for stew. They were in a slightly dicey spot, so she didn’t want attract attention with a fire. 

Green eyes caught the other slowly waking up, and her voice calls out quietly. “Finally waking up?” A amused chuckle leaves her but it lacks any warmth that they had shared before. “Dinner’s almost done.”

millennicl:

          something between a cringe and a  s n e e r  at the mention of           occult and wicca  -  neither of which were anything like what she           was.  after all,  witches were REAL.  those others weren’t.  were           only edgy teenagers attempting to look cool.  pretend that powers           are something they can earn.  that spells and crystals and incense           work without the use of real power.  without a real witch.

          hazel eyes would  n a r r o w  -  a heavy sigh escaping her lips as           she sat back slightly.  looked to the other.  focused on her  h o o d.             pulled gently UP with telekinesis.  placed it back over her head  -             gaze returning to the other’s a moment later.  amusement gone.

                   .“  i’m not WICCAN and i’m not a part of the  o c c u l t.                           i’m a  w i t c h,  and i know you have powers,  too.  so                         what are they?  ”  insistent.  wasn’t planning on leaving                         until she’d done exactly what she’d arrived to do.

Ellie wasn’t sure if her words got to her. The blonde’s silence wasn’t exactly telling. She seemed agitated and the small teen feared the worst. She was ready to pull out her chair and run before her eyes adverted to her hood. It was as if a gentle hand tugged the fabric back up onto her head, and shock took over her features. Her eyes widened as a hand idly grasped at the worn cloth that rested back over her head. 

The other was serious. Ellie almost didn’t believe it but she could still feel the power that traveled in the air. Even as death flashed before her eyes faintly, they were trained on the other constantly. She was searching for the right words to say. Ellie was almost afraid it was too good to be true. Her lips parted slightly before she finally spoke. 

“I...” A pause, an inhale as her voice grew tight. “I see people die. All the time. I see it happen before it happens. I-I thought I was crazy...” Her voice was shaky, but not from fear. Awe. Shock. And some sort of joy in the idea that someone may understand.

@xendure​ liked.

            “ ellie, watch this! ”  in an attempt to bring cheer to – or perhaps, hopefully, even impress – the younger girl, elizabeth opened up a tear in front of her to a vividly colorful flower garden. quick to pluck out one of the nearest flowers, she handed it to ellie.  “ isn’t this just beautiful? ”

[enduriis-a]

There’s a sense of dread that fills her as the other opens up the tear so easily to pluck out a flower. She just stares at the flower as she feels hurt. “How did you do that? I thought you said you couldn’t open more tears.” Her tone is terse as she pushes away the flower.
