teenage girl sighing dreamily as she lays in her bed and writes in her diary with a pink glitter pen and when you look at the notebook shes just writing “killing and violence and killing and violence” with little hearts above the i’s over and over and over

Tʜᴇʀᴇ's ᴀ crease on her forehead as she watches him pile up a good amount of bandages and disinfectants. Things that she agrees are always handy to have around — you never know when you might get a nasty cut or something — but the pure number of them is why she had initially inquired about it. You don't stockpile on that if you don't plan something very dangerous. People think just because she chooses to be soft spoken and kind she's also oblivious to things, as if she doesn't know exactly what kind of world they live in, and as if one of the reasons why she writes so many letters isn't to make sure everyone she cares about does not worry about her, and can in turn reassure her about still being safe, a thing not a given.

He does not make the impression of someone that even wants to try and keep safe, and his smile sure meant to ease her does not do quite as much so as he might think.

(She's not blind. She knows it rarely means anything good when the boys try to ditch them both, and that their intentions might be good, but the methods aren't always.)

"Are you sure? It does seem like a lot for 'just in case', Mister Wolfwood."

Arguing never got anyone anywhere, but it does not keep her from expression concern.

I’m doing a fucking thing here. I don’t need you getting in my way. (for worstie </3)

@crosscursed

Oʜ, sʜᴇ's not getting in the way. She's not offering any help, either. There's approximately a thousand things she could think of that would be a better use of her time, but unfortunately, most of them are not an option right now, and driving Chapel's nerves into the ground seems like a perfect excuse to get her own spirits back up. She's in a mood, and he's the closest thing to let it out on. Easy as such.

"Does 'your thing' involve complete and utter incompetence? I am aware that this is not an uncommon state for you to approach any task, but you do seem especially resistant to improving and learning from your mistakes today."

Naturally, she could offer at least eight different potentially fatal or at least mission critical flaws in his obvious plan, but it's much funnier to see him fail and get punished. It's not like it affects long term goals, so she might as well drive the knife a little further in and twist.

I know I have no right to ask you this, but truly, what is going on with you? (for zazie)

@crosscursed

"Yᴏᴜ'ʀᴇ ʀɪɢʜᴛ, Punisher. You have no right to ask."

They don't bother adjusting their voice; always too chipper, always a little bit too friendly, too excited. If one listens very very closely and it's quiet otherwise (which it never is; the planet lives and moves and breathes with a thousand mouths and hearts), one could hear the faintest bit of buzzing with each of their movement, and if one paid even more attention, they would notice that they don't breathe at all, except to form words and push air out to form sounds. Of course, they don't doubt he noticed either of those things, and of course, it matters absolutely not whether or not he did because he knows full well what they are, even if he chooses to be ignorant about it, even if he chooses to see something defenseless that needs his help.

Humans make no sense, but that's not a new thing, and they like this one better than most of them. At least he tends to do and say things out of a will of his own survival, and that's so much more honest than most of them.

They grin up at him (sharp smile and a thousand teeth, a hundred wings), kick a rock away from them. Arms behind their head, or whatever passes as a good enough illusion of a human body, anyway. (They are very proud of keeping a consistent shape that doesn't ring any alarm bells, thank you very much. It took them a very long time to perfect.)

"I'm not asking you what your problem is, now do I? Because we both know you don't want to say and I don't want to know and the list is too long to put into words."

They bend at the hips towards him, eyes big and it's so easy to see a child, not a predator.

"So what's the deal, Punisher? Getting so fed up with your tasks you pretend to care?"

@grainbloomed said: It’s not easy to admit when you’re wrong, and that’s why I won’t do it. (razlo)

There is a short moment of consideration, a barely perceivable sigh escaping her lips. A disapproving look. He delighted in being difficult, didn't he?

"Well, at least you are... kinda saying what's on your mind this time. It's progress." she admitted. It was what she had asked him to do, after all.

"But once again; no, threatening people with unspeakable violence is not okay. Yes, even when they do not give you a discount. Yes, we need the supplies but come on."

Sᴇᴇ, ᴛʜᴇʀᴇ's an internal conflict (nothing he's a stranger to and all that, but that doesn't mean he likes them anymore. Internal ones are harder to fight than external one. For one, they don't much care if you threaten them).

On the one hand: it worked, didn't it, and thus, he does not see why he should change his ways. They even got more than they initially planned. Given, they also probably can't come back, but that's a problem so far in the future if at all, it does hardly matter.

On the other hand: her opinion is one of the few that actually matter, and he doesn't like when she is disappointed in him. It's, once again, not a thing he can make better with aggression, and that's a whole issue when that's the one valid response to problems the world taught him.

"But. It worked."

Now he's just acting like a child getting in trouble. (Not too far from the truth, anyway.)
