#betrayal

[matryrs-archive]

&                    cassandra bianchi.

       how long has she been waiting to hear him say those words ? how many times has she imagined this moment, DREAMED about this moment ? how often has she played marseilles over and over again in her mind, wondering what might have happened if things had been different, if she’d been better, been enough. perhaps it’s that questioning of self-worth, the insecurities she only feels when he’s around, that confuse her now. she can’t understand how he could leave everything behind now, not when that little girl and her mother spark such LOVE in him.

       ❝ what ? ❞ dumbfounded is putting how she’s feeling mildly. confused, overwhelmed, her heart pounding in her ears. ❝ raymond… don’t do this to me. ❞ don’t make me have to say goodbye again, please. ❝ i can see how much you love them, and i love you far too much to ask you to leave them behind. please… i want to, more than anything, believe me, but… ❞ she reaches out for him, fingers brushing adoringly along the curve of a cheek. ❝ please… i’m not sure i’m STRONG ENOUGH to let you go again. ❞

doubt,  although  weak,  attempts  to  burrow  inside  his  thoughts  with  each  word  she  speaks.  skulking,  casting  shadows  on  an  otherwise  clear  mind.  he  knows  he  wants  this,  her.  but  it  occurs  to  him  that  maybe  she’s  trying  to  let  him  down  easy.  he  wouldn’t  blame  her  for  that,  or  having  a  change  in  heart.  he  wouldn’t  blame  her,  but  he  might  blame  himself.  

her  hand  against  his  cheek  is  soft,  warm.  is  he  ready  to  give  that  up?  one  hand  covers  hers  with  his  own,  the  other  instinctively  wrapping  itself  around  her  waist  to  pull  her  in  for  a  desperate,  possibly  final,  kiss. 

a  long  moment,  and  then  lips  are  reluctantly  pulling  apart.  “  cass,  ”  eyes  still  closed,  like  a  prayer.  “  please don’t go.  ”

&          cassandra bianchi.

       letting him go is hard, harder when he’s looking at her with those wide eyes that are more sincere than he knows and saying her name in a tone she feels in every inch of her body. but she does… because she knows him. she knows IMPORTANT this woman and her daughter are to him, has now seen with her own eyes how utterly in love with them he is. how, if she truly loves him ( and she does ), can she take him away from that ? she’s not expecting him to run after her, to hear him shout her name with such DESPERATION her body turns of its own accord. ❝ raymond ? did something happen ? ❞ she can’t imagine why else he’d call her back.

reddington,  the  man  --  the  figure  --  everyone  knew,  was  confident.  someone  who  carried  themselves  with  such  poise  that  it  left  others  in  their  presence  scrambling  to  present  a  similar  stature.  he  had  always  walked  tall  in  the  face  of  adversary,  in  the  face  of  trial. 

but  he  doesn’t  walk  tall  now.  this  isn’t  about  war  anymore.  the  man  with  countless  influence  over  nations,  the  man  with  millions?  he  doesn’t  care  about  that.  it’s  all  a  ruse,  one  created  in  love  no - less.  he  lost  track  of  that  somewhere  along  the  way. 

it  is  a  desperate  man  that  approaches  her  now.  no  longer  a  king,  but  a  beggar.  he  hadn’t  been  ready  before,  someone  else  had  needed  him  more.  it  was  different  now,  though.  everything  was  different  ...  except  what  he  wanted.  “  let’s go. right now. just you  &  me.  please. ”

[  ...  ]  two  steps  forward  as  cheers  of  applause  erupt  from  the auditorium  behind  him.  features  laced  with  confusion  as  her  figure  disappears  down  a  corridor.  he  doesn’t  quite  understand  ...  any  obligations  he  had  once  held  were  null  &  void,  and  he  had  told  her  such  :  his  choice  was  made.  another  two  steps  forward,  tentatively.  and  then  he’s  moving  faster,  confusion  slipping  away  as  panic  sets  in.  “  cassandra,  ”  voice  rings  out  as  he  turns  into  the  corridor,  bright  eyes  searching  in  a  desperate  attempt  to  find  her  familiar  frame.  “  cass, you can’t leave.  ”

OOC. im just here to say that r.aymond r.eddington is a good man who does bad things for mostly good, but sometimes questionable reasons and i would absolutely lay down my life for him

[rohstova-deactivated20200422]

a very necessary set as req’d by @federalagent

[matryrs-archive]

im going to make a more in depth post about this later on, but my portrayal of r.aymond r.eddington is foundationally and primarily based in seasons 1-3 of the b.lacklist, and the premise that he is, in fact, i.lya k.oslov.

and yes, i am aware that a later episode revealed him not to be i.lya, however... i frankly don’t trust the writers or care for many of their so called plot twists. in my eyes and from what i have gathered as far as time line goes, the transformation from i.lya k.oslov to who we know and learn is r.aymond r.eddington makes the most sense and fits perfectly into the canon established in which I follow.

tl;dr my red is in fact i.lya and functions around the plots of seasons 1-3 + cape may & rassvet
