Athena, Ex-Lone Wanderer

((Gonna put NSFW here, just to be safe. Mun is over 18, trigger warnings for blood and otherwise will be tagged. Mun lives in EST, though usually stays up late. Please read rules before interacting.)) Most know my story-the beginning, anyway. At the ripe age of 19, I was kicked from the only life I had ever known. As if it wasn't blared on the radio everyday for almost a year- oh, wait! I'm not the same person I was then, finding my way in a world that will eat you alive (sometimes literally, if you run into too many super mutants at one time) if you don't. Three years later, after I made my now later father and mother's dream of clean water for the DC area, I'm still doing just that- finding my way. A lot of people don't remember me- what I look like, anyway, and that's just fine with me.

"Who gives a rat’s ass about it. I always use them for what they’re good for, at least the girl corpses." He couldn’t help but let a grin break his straight face. "Dead girls can’t say no." 

AS he said those words Vic turned to look Athena in the eyes. If he was going to tell somebody about his sexual preferences, he might as well see their reaction.

[greyeyedwanderer]

"Christ, Vic," she said, her face contorting in disgust. "I guess whatever floats your boat. I could never imagine fucking a corpse, though guy corpses couldn't get it up in the first place."

Her mouth turned to a straight line as she looked out the door, hearing the rain pick up. 

"Shitty there's not more to loot in here, like Rad-X. You can practically feel the radiation in this storm."

It was a short run to the gas station but tiring none the less. Upon entering the station, Vic cautiously inspected the room. Nothing. It was a good sign, he didn’t want to waste any ammo on radroaches or mole rats.

Vince sauntered over to the dirty old counter and rested his arms on it. He made a rather flamboyant pose when doing so as a joke. Even if he was a dull man he could still poke some fun a couple times. While inspecting the counter he picked up a wheel that belonged to a toy car. The body lay not too far from where the wheel was. 

Fidgeting with the toy wheel, he began to speak."What you said you didn’t want to desecrate that dude’s body, I have a question. What does desecrate mean?"

[greyeyedwanderer]

Athena made it close behind, her breaths coming in pants. She always appreciated the exercise, but the rush of adrenaline from running from the rain had her a bit exhausted in its come down. 

She scanned the station herself, her chapped lips forming a smirk when her gaze fell on the man's funny position- she choked back a laugh.  When she was done, she propped her bag against a wall, using it as a backrest as she sank to the floor. 

"You know," she said, trying to figure a way to explain. "I didn't want to mess with, disrespect, defile the body. I felt bad enough separating the arm, since the pip-boy was stuck on after years of it decomposing like that. I don't really like touching the dead." She cringed. That much wasn't a lie.

Her reaction to the question was a little skeptical, even to an idiot like Vic. Though, her answer was good enough to not raise suspicion yet. The curiosity about her past still remained though and he wasn’t going to let that fade away as quickly. 

"Yeah. Alright." Vic just passed it off like it was nothing. They had a new issue on hand, they both were feeling irradiated raindrops on slowly falling onto them. Without thinking anything was wrong with the station, he ran up behind Athena. With a hasty tone, he made himself in charge of what was going to happen. 

"Okay, we sprint to that station and wait for a bit to see if this shit gets any worse, got it?" 

[greyeyedwanderer]

Athena didn't start to feel relieved yet- she knew she would have to be quicker on her feet in answering questions about her past or she was going to be royally fucked. At least for now there was a distraction, however dangerous. 

She started at him for a second, when she traveled alone she never really had to deal with someone else trying to lead, and him charging in front got to her a bit. But its not like she said something she didn't agree with, so she nodded, her mouth a set line. 

"Yeah, alright. Here's to hoping it doesn't," she said, taking off towards the station in a run.

"Where did you even get that thing?" HE asked, referencing to the pip-boy on her arm. "I thought that you can only get them from vaults?" He wasn’t very smart, so for now he couldn’t connect the dots too well, but he had his suspicions. 

But for now, all he was really concerned about was going to the mills, and what they find there. As well as getting there before it rains… if it does anyways. He wasn’t even worried about his untied boot, though he has stumbled due to the lace already. 

[greyeyedwanderer]

"I, uh." She struggled for a moment. Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck. Need a good reason. Can't be from the vault. Then it came to her, kind of. She bit her lip, looking ashamed. "I kinda picked it off a dead body in one of the vaults. Didn't want to desecrate it too much, but the technology was just too useful to pass up." 

She ran up a nearby hill, taking in their surroundings and running away from a conversation she didn't really want to have. She started feeling a raindrop here and there, and was already feeling a bit ill- ever since Project Purity, she had been a bit more sensitive to radiation. She saw what looked like an old gas station in the distance. "Hey, look over there!"

[heartswillrecover]

[greyeyedwanderer]

❝ Everything I’ve done, I’ve done for you. ❞

"Wh-what?" She hadn’t meant to stammer, but it came out as such. She barely met his eyes, a blush making her sunburned cheeks redder than usual.

Vic nodded. Even if either of them weren’t great at using the rifle, it would still be a useful thing to use. If they got a high view of the mills from a cliff, it would really be handy. He figured he better keep is plasma rifle out in case they ran into any molerats on the way there. 

“I have some stimpaks and extra ammo if you need them.” On top of the items he had hidden in his bag and pockets, he had his combat knife as usual and an axe for safe measures. Because he generally only used the rifle and his knife, he thought he wouldn’t need many weapons if the few he brought did good. 

From what he could tell, they would have to hurry there. He noticed clouds gathering north towards where they were heading. If they got lucky, it wouldn’t rain on them but he doubted it. "I should have brought rad-away. Looks like it might storm…" He commented. 

[greyeyedwanderer]

Athena looked hurriedly back at her map- she had no desire to get stuck in that rain. She wondered where they could take shelter- obviously not in Vault 101, even if they let them in, he would soon find out her past affiliation. Though she hadn't really been in that direction much other than to get to the Vault she thought her father was in, and Smith Casey's garage was too far. So for now, nothing.

"Well, I guess if it hits us, we find shelter wherever we can. Though I might have enough, we'll see how hard they hit us."

She sighed. They hadn't even started walking and there were already odds against them- but they might be fine, she hoped, if they at least made it through the rain. 

"Let's go," she said, closing her Pip-boy down. "We'll see how far we can make it before the rain." She started in the direction of the Mills.

❝ I ask for so little. ❞

❝ Just let me rule you, and you can have everything that you want. ❞

❝ Just fear me, love me - do as I say and I will be your slave.❞

❝ You remind me of the babe. ❞

❝ That’s not fair! ❞

❝ Give me the child. ❞

❝ You say that so often, I wonder what your basis for comparison is? ❞

❝ I have been generous up ‘til now; I can be cruel. ❞

❝ You cowered before me, I was frightening. ❞

❝ I have reordered time; I have turned this world upside down, and I have done it all for you! ❞

❝ I am exhausted from living up to your expectations. ❞

❝ Isn’t that generous? ❞

❝ Your mother is a fraggin’ aardvark! ❞

❝ Everything I’ve done, I’ve done for you. ❞

❝ I move the stars for no one. ❞

❝ Your eyes can be so cruel. ❞

❝ If she ever kisses you, I’ll turn you into a prince. ❞

❝ If he ever kisses you, I’ll turn you into a princess. ❞

❝ You’re him, aren’t you? ❞

❝ You’re her, aren’t you? ❞

❝ My will is as strong as yours, and my kingdom as great. ❞

❝ You have no power over me. ❞

❝ How you turn my world, you precious thing. ❞

❝ Well then, come on, which way? ❞

❝ Which way do you want to go, hm? ❞

❝ Was that wrong? ❞

❝ I’ve brought you a gift. ❞

❝ But if you turn it this way and look into it, it will show you your dreams. ❞

❝ In nine hours and twenty-three minutes…you’ll be mine. ❞

❝ Where you goin’ with a head like that? ❞

❝ No, I said ‘allo’, but that’s close enough. ❞

❝ It’s only forever, not long at all. ❞

❝ All right then, throw down your weapons, and I’ll see that you’re well-treated. ❞

❝ Don’t tell me truth hurts, because it hurts like hell. ❞

❝ No one can blame you for walking away. ❞

❝ I don’t know why, but every now and again in my life - for no reason at all - I need you. ❞

❝ The way forward is sometimes the way back. ❞

❝ It’s very rude to stare! ❞

❝ What did you have to go and do a thing like that for? ❞

❝ What’d you expect fairies to do? ❞

❝ What’s the matter, my dear, don’t like your toys? ❞

❝ There’s such a sad love, deep in your eyes. ❞

❝ I’ll place the sky within your eyes. ❞

❝ What kind of magic spell to use? ❞

❝ I’ll paint you mornings of gold. ❞

❝ I’ll spin you Valentine evenings. ❞

❝ I’ll be there for you as the world falls down. ❞

❝ We’re choosing the path between the stars. ❞

❝ I’ll leave my love between the stars. ❞

❝ How you turned my world, you precious thing. ❞

❝ You starve and near exhaust me. ❞

❝ I do believe in you. ❞

❝ I live without the sunlight. ❞

❝ I love without your heartbeat. ❞

❝ I can’t live within you. ❞

Help!

Send me “Help!” to see how my character would help yours (or if they would at all) in bad situations.

8. Crying too hard to speak clearly

"Sorry, there…" Veronica said awkwardly, placing a hand on her shoulder. Still unaware of this woman was hurt or just… sensitive. The scribe perhaps thought about leaving this woman to solve her own problems. But she was curious.

[greyeyedwanderer]

Athena tried to tell the woman her conundrum, but couldn't find the words, nor could she stop crying long enough to make them. She had a bit to drink earlier, to celebrate the anniversary of her father's death, and the alcohol had made her more sensitive than usual. 

[greyeyedwanderer]

7 8 10

7) How does your character perceive themselves? Positive? Negative? Neutral?

It usually depends on what she’s perceiving. She knows she’s a good shot, but after the death of her father, she perceived herself negatively. She doesn’t think her father would be proud of her now, what with her drug addiction and sudden disappearance from the community after finishing Project Purity. 

8) Are they a quick thinker or do they need time to sort through their thoughts?

Athena is mostly a quick thinker, not usually taking more than a moment until words come out of her mouth- though this shouldn’t be mistaken for blurting out and the like. She will think for hours on her own, so when she’s talking to others the thoughts come quicker.

10) If they had a choice, would they prefer a subway or a bus for public transportation?

Athena would be really excited for ANY transportation, but would prefer a subway. Less people trying to to find a seat next to her, and if someone does, it doesn’t trap her next to a window or something.

The strange girl walked with a skip in her step past Athena carrying a series of different traps with blood on the bottom of her skirt, sleeves, and side of face. She stopped for a second and stared at Athena looking back and forth from her to the traps in her hands. "It's not what you think"

Athena paled, and ripped the pistol from the holster on her belt screaming, “Shit! Well, you better start explaining- fast!” 

She’d say she was above killing harmless girls, but this girl did not seem harmless in any way. Was any of that blood even hers? She doubted it, its not like the girl looked like she needed help- not with that giddy step.

[grandmaofthewastes]

"Who’d I kill?" she paused for a second then muttered to herself "who did I kill?"  She didn’t really get a good look at the person who ran into the trap, all she really could remember was the sound of the trap snapping and the scream that followed afterwords.  She wasn’t even sure if the person died, she ran off as soon as she heard voices in the distant.   Of course she didn’t think about this long when she heard the mention of clothing. “You have clothes?!?” Pockets mouth widened as she jumped a little excited at she watched the stranger pull out her bag.  She didn’t even care if it ended up being a potato sack, she would be happy with anything that wasn’t permanently stained in blood.

[greyeyedwanderer]

The girl didn't seem to remember, which made Athena a little bit uneasy, but then she had no room to talk- she killed plenty faceless people in her life. "Eh, don't worry about it."

She handed her the shirt and pants. "Here you go. They might be a bit big, the shirt easily reaches my mid thigh and the pants are my size. I'll turn around and you can get redressed. You can probably wash your dress now, just gotta find some running water."
