〝 you're beautiful , 〞he says , running a thumb over her cheek , eyes undeniably earnest .〝 do you know that ? 〞 / @agaetir
to say she’s caught off guard would be an understatement. for all the shared secrets, both spoken and not, this is something that has never been breached. of course, it’s . . . implied, isn’t it? but the suddenness of it being tangible, and said simply because he wanted to say it and make sure she knew, well. that is something beyond base aesthetic appeal. sylvie is no saint, no blushing maiden naïve to stares, or what they mean. she’s always known in some objective way, that she is beautiful --- but in this moment, it’s the first time sylvie realizes she’s beautiful in the way he means it. not just as a passing fancy, or a way to be alive at the end of a universe. even in her ire, and in all the ways she is flawed [ and she is, terribly ] he still thinks so. she can’t help but lean a little into his touch, feeling awfully exposed when he looks at her like that; like there’s not a darkened corner he doesn’t see, and all the things she tries to hide are so easy to see. and yet he doesn’t flinch or look away.
the goddess looks back, just as earnest; brows knitted together and resisting in the initial impulse of too close, time to disappear. it’s easy to be near when they’re bickering, fucking or fighting – but ironically, it’s moment’s like this that make her feel the most vulnerable. but, as terrifying as it is, she doesn’t plan to run away. instead, sylvie steps a little closer, pulse echoing in her ears faintly, with fingers reach out, brushing over the pulse point in his neck before cradling his jaw; thumb mimicking the gentle touch he gives, and she sees. everything she’s ever felt and feared, everything she’s ever wanted to reach out and take, or been too afraid to ask for. the uncertainty of life, the mad scramble for identity when what they thought they knew was taken away, and an existence, a purpose, that means something; anything. she exhales a breath she didn’t even realize she was holding, and wonders if she’s giving the same look he’s giving her — as if they’re gazing at something precious.
❝ i don’t think i really knew what that meant. not in the way you say it, but i think i do now. because that’s all i know when i look back at you, and find you looking at me first. ❞
"would you like me to wash your hair?" / @ceoofvariants
❝ —— you would do that? ❞
that isn’t something she ever particularly thought she would hear, let alone think about at all, frankly; what time is there during the ends of a thousand worlds, to indulge in something so frivolous, and yet, so intimate? for a moment, sylvie wonders if she looks confused, before her head shakes with a faint laugh. there are so many nuances to life, to relationships, she is learning with him; with them. this is just one more thing to add to the list. and perhaps, a bit too excitedly, the goddess rocks back and fourth, with a grin that is no doubt filled with mischievous intent.
𝐈𝐓 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐀 𝐂𝐔𝐑𝐒𝐄. a burden I should be relieved to think I could possibly get rid of. but it’s been my burden for so long that I can’t escape the question- without it.. WHAT AM I? HE WAS ME. a part of me buried so deep it took a bomb to expose him. without his ROAR in my mind, all I hear is my own whisper. there’s no you. there’s no me.

❛ is this good ? ❜ + ❛ mirror . to have sex with my muse in front of a mirror . @ceoofvariants
this isn’t something she’s used to -- not just giving up a little bit of control, but taking things slow. growing up in apocalypses, taking whatever she could get while it lasted certainly didn’t breed a mindset of overindulgence. or, indulgence of any kind, really. but this, this is something she could get used to, and not simply for the pleasure buzzing beneath her skin, but because of how he makes her heart flutter. he doesn’t need to be gentle, certainly doesn’t need to treat her like something fragile, and yet, he does. mobius holds her like she is something precious, not because he has to, but because he wants to; the thought alone is enough to make her breath stutter, though the slow roll of his hips into hers certainly makes an equal impression. she may be situated in his lap, arms wrapped around his shoulders, but despite her instincts, sylvie is forcing herself to let him guide her.
it’s difficult, when she wants more, more, more, used to everything on the verge of death, but it’s a habit she’s been unlearning; even if it makes her whine a little in frustration, fingers tugging at the short, gray strands of hair while her head tips back. in the mirror, she can catch sight of them, moving in a sensual fluidity that takes her breath away. there’s a faint sheen of sweat along their skin, arms around her waist to keep her steady, blonde hair sticking to her cheeks and jaw. IS THIS GOOD? one of his hands dips between sylvie’s thighs, making them tremble with slow, teasing strokes. normally not enough to send her over, but, with everything she feels, how much she actually trusts him, adores him --- it’s a lot. it’s enough.
she pressies closer with a gasp, lashes fluttering as mobius’ lips drag along on her neck, soft as any prayer, before the ends of his fingers dimple her skin. she’s a shivering mess in his arms, in no hurry to leave; content to enjoy the way this feels, the feel of his heart beating against her chest with equal quickness, the pleasant warmth he exudes. their noses brush and she can’t resist kissing him, and letting mobius pull them back onto the bed properly, still connected, but . . . content. even if she wants more [ and maybe part of the reason she always does is because of how much she wants them near in any way she can ] this is just as good; and she doesn’t want to waste the moment. she breathes out when he breathes in, unable to bear pulling away from his lips for too long.

“ You’re right. I don’t but .. you needed help. I assume if you wanted to hurt me, you would have done it the moment I got closer.. ” Bruce tested. Bruce removed his hands from her shoulder, his eyes still looking at the bleeding wound with a deep frown and sighed. “ I don’t like turning away anyone in need of help. ” Plus she was alone. Bruce didn’t fault her for being cautious, he would have been too.
to say this is unexplored territory would be a great underestimation. the places she has lived [ sometimes for days, or hours, depending on the class of the apocalypse ] and the people she has associated with in that time do not think like this. she could not afford to think along such terms either, helping people who were destined to die. ironic, since it was supposedly her destiny, too. yet she continues to fight against the judgement of the tva. selfish? perhaps. but it’s kept her alive this long, if banged up now and again. like now, for instance; with a nasty wound that may or may not be little fried along the edges.
❝ but for the record, i’m a lot sturdier than you think. this? nasty as it is, it’ll heal, and i’m not [ . . . ] helpless. just a bit lost at the moment, i suppose. not entirely sure when i am. ❞
The comment is made rather easily, head giving a rather curious tilt as it brings a shift in dangling burnette tresses. Appearing before others like this was rather common for her - position akin to a child sitting with legs crossed and arms lightly folded at their chest, except well, she was currently upside down before the other. Cerulean energy thrums beneath her form to keep her perfectly suspended, cerulean vibrant in her gaze. She’s well aware of variants of other’s existing - there were all different realities and all different realms that had such various versions of their selves - though, she’s never quite met someone like this one; like her.
❝ —— different? ❞
uncertainty and confusion over exactly what that is supposed to mean settles into her expression : a raised brow and something a little alarmed, almost. course, that may be in part to the unknown being that is hanging upside down with wide eyes, like a kind of curious spider. typically, people just tended to react violently. or with indifference. either or worked well enough for her purposes. arms crossing, blue-green eyes sweep over the other’s figure with a hip cocked, before her hand waves vaguely in the air.
❝ what in the seven hells is that supposed to mean? different good, different bad [ . . . ] lot of gray area, there. ❞
