Constantly torn between making laufey her voice claim or amy lee

[ohtides]

Blue eye samurai verse and it's just people mistaking her for a yōkai, specifically a funayūrei (spirit of someone who's drowned at sea) which...would be hauntingly accurate to her lore lol

@ohtides / cont!

There's a wordless smirk from the woman at the retort, not even sparing the siren a glance -- perhaps that's her own mercy, perhaps there are other things on the table. This hadn't really been on Ada's agenda. She's gotten what she came for; this had just been to satiate her curiousity. She hadn't any idea what to expect from the files…

" We're going to have company soon, " the woman remarks, finally, eyes set on the automatic door at the end of the corridor. She's sure Umbrella won't like her taking their toy away. " Do exactly as I say and everything will be fine. "

[ohtides]

This human was bold. But so were the many that dared to imprison her in this place. Each time her conscious broke the surface of spatial awareness Serenity swears to herself she will gut every last one; only for her eyelids to droop close once more and teeter her mind on the edge of oblivion. Images flash before the siren's eyes, hallways, lights, this stranger's smile. She vaguely hears what the human says, sluggishly hissing through her teeth.

❝ What more could I do . . . ❞ responded in feeble sarcasm. Serenity isn't sure how this woman intended to fend off others and continue to drag her like this. She wasn't fully aware enough to care either - though the warning pulls her attention forward. Milky eyes flutter shut and she tries to concentrate. It wasn't as easy as it were in the open water. . .

❝ . . From the left. Three.. four of them. ❞

@ohtides SAID: ❝ Find another corner of this hellscape to grovel, human. ❞ // for chris - dbd verse?

Grovel? Chris' instinct is to bite back with a snarky rebuttal, but this is new territory. It always is. He thought Arklay Mansion unnerved him; that had been nothing compared to what that... THING and these monsters had planned. His memory his hazy, but his body remembers. Remembers the ways it's died, and mostly, for other people. He finds himself instinctively reaching for his weapon, but the holster's empty, and he's reminded he's defenseless.

He wades up the stairs, finding it difficult to get anywhere fast. Stall it is.

" What's wrong with this one? Under renovation? " he asks, raising an eyebrow.

[ohtides]

The siren's back is turned to him and apparently letting Chris move freely. Water pours down from the walls, this environment is familiar to her but irritatingly inaccurate. Even Serenity found herself confused hunting the realm in which she'd lived for a millennia, seeing as this place was a crude recreation of her home. Frustrating. What's more frustrating is that the bug speaks to her in spite of her demands. She liked messing with humans, but only when it was her game to play.

❝ It ought to be, ❞ her heavenly voice sighed in irony, placing a palm against crumbling stone, ebony hair clinging to her shoulders. ❝ The creature is not favorable of my dwelling. You should count yourself lucky these halls are unfamiliar to me. ❞

❛ you don’t have to be good, or useful, for someone to care about you. ❜

❛ when you do the right thing for the wrong reason, no one praises you. ❜

❛ we all want to be special.”

❛ what is right and wrong depends entirely on the story you’re living in. ❜

❛ which is more intricate? the designs of men, trying to reach gods, or that of gods, trying to reach men? ❜

❛ people who love you for your usefulness don't love you at all. ❜

❛ you want to throw me down. ❜

❛ i, prideful, disdainful, godless. ❜

❛ i want to drag you into the dirt with me. ❜

❛ you know this story, (name,) though you do not remember it. ❜

❛ to tell a story is in part to tell a lie, isn't it? ❜

❛ it's hard to see who i am when i am lost in what's expected of me. ❜

❛ fear not, (name!) every day has its dog. ❜

❛ if you only ever look up at something, can you ever see it clearly? ❜

❛ it is easier, swearing ourselves to someone else's cause than to sit with who we are without one. ❜

❛ take my hand, you strange little creature. ❜

❛ it sounds awful when i say it out loud. ❜

❛ you are more special than you realize. ❜

❛ i would do anything for you. ❜

❛ i cannot decide which i like best. the sunrise, or the sunset. ❜

❛ i was losing my faith in everything. ❜

❛ the two of us meeting… it felt almost divine. ❜

❛ i think her quite the bitch. ❜

❛ how undignified. ❜

❛ did anyone see me fall? ❜

❛ i want someone to see me. ❜

❛ i want it to be you. ❜

❛ no honor among thieves, and even less among gods. ❜

❛ i’ll do anything you ask of me. ❜

❛ if i were beside myself, there would be two of me ❜

❛ oh, (name.) he's dreamy. ❜

❛ do you want to know how it ends? ❜

❛ does it end? ❜

❛ it ends when you kiss me. ❜

❛ why do we do these things to ourselves? ❜

❛ you’re an incomparable fiend, (name.) a truly accomplished asshole. ❜

❛ i’d like you better if you were on your back again. ❜

❛ it is not like me to be the bearer of bad tidings. ❜

❛ am i all that you imagined? ❜

❛ your hands are marked by the blood of my metamorphosis. ❜

❛ whatever my soul was made of was frail. ❜

❛ violence is a craft. so is compassion. ❜

❛ no is a sufficient answer. ❜

❛ anger is a fine weapon. ❜

❛ now have some soup. ❜

❛ i will shoulder any weight you give me. ❜

❛ would that things were different. ❜

❛ i think i would like to stop promising myself away, or else there will be nothing left of me to give. ❜

❛ i don’t know why i say the things i do. ❜

dbd verse thoughts

one night the siren closed her eyes to the vastness of the night sky, starlit waves lapping at her scaled cheeks. she dreamt of the sun, the sky, the feeling of flying and wind whipping her hair and her mother's arms cradling her. she watched as the ground below her passed her by, and soon they closed in on a freezing fog - swallowed whole. she realized for the first time in hundreds of years she felt cold. the fog encompassed everything, her mind, her senses. milky eyes snapped open to a world shrouded, screams on the wind. the lighthouse she always passed on her dawnlit swims was there, but to her confusion it eclipsed a blood red sunset. a voice then spoke to her as spider like arms now reached for her, commanding her to hunt.

even as a killer she is still a victim to the entity's whim, as her curse threatens starvation in a land where every soul is kept on loop in endless torment. the siren can try to feed, but it never quells the ache she feels. she is always on death's door and it terrifies her.

due to the lack of soul ingestion ser's face is marbled by dark cracks - as is the rest of her body. black ashen flecks follow her as she moves, like little ebony sparkles.

her zone is an ancient temple that occasionally floods, where survivors have to find ways to drain the water before they are caught. similar to the huntress, ser feels a sting of sympathy for them.

being able to shapeshift, she is much slower with legs. in the water however, she's dangerously fast.

when not hunting survivors, serenity is looking for a way out. she's sure there is one, even if it takes clawing her way. she is reluctant to talk, she's more like a feral animal and spits venom at those who approach.

"Gotcha. Probably human and mostly alive. I'll see what I can do. Just don't be too freaked out if the bodies look almost identical to me."

And as if on cue, a portal opened up behind him. Without even looking, Rick pulled out a laser gun and fired it as several Ricks in uniform filed out of it, killing them instantly with a headshot.

The portal closed and Rick just kind of kicks the corpses into the water. "Huh. They were early today. Anyway, three corpses as promised plus one more. Sorry they weren't alive."

[ohtides]

Okay. She genuinely was not expecting that. Yellow eyes widen comically as a portal opens up and out steps more of the same man she'd been speaking to. What even just happened?? Serenity believes she must be experiencing some bout of mania, because seriously... what??

She paddles back a little, watching the lifeless Rick bodies float aimlessly...

❝ Erm . . Thank you. I guess. ❞ She's disappointed they're not alive. Oh well...
