continuted from ( here ) * @redemptioninterlude

" ... a little , it feels like something new around the corner each time. " like a bad sci-fi flick that tries to one up itself , when she gotten somewhat used to one thing giving chase ; it seemed something new decided that it was it cue. she doesn't give her time to react before Ashley feels herself leave the ground ; Ada hook steadies itself attaching vaulting them forward & up. talk about thrill rides. it reminds her of carnival rides the one that push you up into the air and suddenly you're seeing the world from a new perspective. gosh she misses home. they're way up higher now and the path foward seems more clear , cut through straightforward then it has been.

the blonde doesn't have time to answer before they both hear the stumbling as a Guadaña makes it way towards them , slight sway to it movements & the sharp double edged talon thrashing ; flesh twitching ... give them a break already. she hears Ada telling her to give her room as the talon swipes towards them & she ducks just in time to the side. it hits the floor , the sharp sound piercing the air as bullets hitting the exposed red follow.

Ada doesn't hesitate , the blonde looks around for some sort of help ; a loose piece of stone picked up and thrown straight at it. it twitches drawing it attention to her before it collapses convulsing & going limp at the final strike.

" I'll keep an eye out for any boxes then but you better mean it. "

humour laces itself with some truth , she had been keeping track but hearing that the blonde definitely shifting a ounce of priority towards finding it. making their way across from where it had came from ; bright optics look around ( * their making progress it feels like , Ashley pushes through the bubble of fear gnawing at exhaustion each time they make it into some place new. )

[redemptioninterlude]

things could change from fine to terrible, all within a moment. and ashley seemed to be adapting... as well as one might imagine. it's not as if any person, first faced with a truth such as this one. that the world was far uglier a place than most realized, there were viruses that existed that the governments around the globe both actively sought, and suppressed news on, and that so, so many people had DIED for these reasons rather than the ones often fed into the news ( of terrorists, of explosions, of umbrella, oh my ).

it's not like ada could deny herself how she'd had to lock in on the idea of survival in raccoon city when she'd first encountered the same. the INTERNAL SICKNESS FELT, when coming into contact for most the first time, seemed the same though. a shock. a horror. a sadness.

the HUMAN response.

something 'lives', and something 'dies'. again. ada's a more dispassionate person, staring at what had once been a villager. perhaps they were even someone that luis serra had known. that's the real tragedy of this, she supposed, as los iluminados twisted the village he had grown up in into something of a PLAYGROUND for the religiously fanatic. all of this, for what? her gun levels ; she shoots, a steady aim. ashley even tries to help, as it's about to fall over, his' grotesque almost head turning in her direction before... it fell. a collapsed heap of a once person, her gaze grim as it met with ashley's.

"GOOD JOB."

the president's daughter, so it seems, has more guts than she'd given her credit for. "i do mean it." she responded as coolly. from what she'd gathered now, it seemed like H.C.F. already had boots on the ground. a headache for her, who was presently double crossing them in favour of the organization. ah, well. business goes on, and women have to be saved along the way. if she could get ashley safely into leon kennedy's hands, then... that would remove that element of DISTRACTION at least. it helps that ashley's a sweet girl. it'd be a shame if she died. "can you tell me more about what happened when you were taken?" it sounds almost as if she just wanted to bond. but frankly, she needed to know more about who she needed to prepare for.

★— ATTN: @plagasaved

[plagasaved]

a smile etched onto features at hearing it , she's proud of herself too ( * it not like the fear isn't there but it becomes more of a reflex ; that she isn't going to go running if the going gets tough ) the least she can do with good aim is help where she can. " no prob' I got your back . " the question that follows Ashley needs a moment to recollect the events , that feel muddled in her mind as they set forward crossing double doors. " I remember the brute that got me , mean looking guy with a scar on his face. " granted she bad been restrained for most of it & he didn't speak a whole lot to her even when Ashley tried to ask questions. who was he working for ? she even pleaded , though that too had fallen on deaf ears.

opening up a drawer as they pass through a new area more lit up & decorated in a more extravagant tone then what the outside offered , looking inside. she doesn't spot anything at first till hues squint ( * it not bullets which is a let down when the blonde knows she could really use them. ) " it was during transport , I was meant to be heading home & the car wouldnt start , engine trouble. " which didn't have her thinking too much of it , it happens / nothing really screamed out of the ordinary. taking out the small key , she sort of recognizes it must be for some of the drawers that had been locked for some reason.

the rest feels like a headache inducing blur , she was here. her phone broken with no way to contact left behind in the church but atleast not alone so that was a positive to keep in mind ; a soft sigh leaving tiers as she tries to recollect any other other important details ( * something that could be helpful but it was hard when truthfully none of this makes sense ) the blonde just wishes she was home away from what seems like a all too realistic nightmare.

[plagasaved]

plotted starter * for @elpisrot !

the scent of smoke & dust that settles into the air , a crowd gathered mixed with her own team and the other crew that wore securing the area ; right below the unexpecting foot is what remains of ARK ( * it over though she thinks , she talks with Leon for a little while who assures her that he's fine & formally introduces her to Grace. ) she waves him off , as he walks away . bright optics settle ahead when she makes a spot for herself next to the other blonde , a small distance before she speaks. " it crazy to think all that was under there. " partly , Ashley had seen the other reports on some of the previous labs discovered , read through them in her spare time.

one down & another appears like a domino effect it seems.

turning slightly to meet Grace gaze. " I know how confusing it must feel , i been there & if you want to talk about it 'm just saying I'm a really good listener " attempts at humoring ; a soft smile on the agent tiers when she hears what sounds like the slightest chuckle left out at her words ( * guess it did work. ) " but if you don't know where to start that alright too. " Ashley hadn't back then , she still remembers stepping off that jetski headache & fatigue making her head feel like mush when the questioning started. what did you experience , how are you feeling , what happened can you tell me in order ? it was overwhelming.

[plagasaved]

mini starter * @wcrldcfvtlvs ( inspired by this gif set )

a sigh of relief when she catches the blade , her own dagger rolled out of reach when the surprise had awaited the corner silent for the right opportunity ; snapping jaw aimed to tear at her throat. disorientating & enduring the promise of a headache that would surface later from it. palms flat biting back the momentuary mind fog to push the vampire off her " thanks , lunch on me. " blinking gaze looking up to see the offered hand ; which she takes pushing herself up back on her feet picking up the dagger sliding it back into her back pocket.

" see any upstairs or do you think the rest just dipped after saw us ? " still missing two, silence persistent in the space ( * she's not up for hide and seek right now. )

“Hold still. I mean it. Hold still.”

* answered from BLOOD ON YOUR SLEEVE ! @harperhydra

she think's luck must not really be on her side , when the events of Spain are far past the blonde in what feels like a whole nightmare thst happened a life time ago ( * danger still seems to find it way back to her / yet now it not hooked talons & bug infected locals ) Ashley momentarily has to blink away the disorientation that will only result in a brutal headache to come. it takes her a moment to register Helena words , to hold still. the part of her mind that still catching up wants to ask why ? till her head tilts down , a mirror shard lodged into the leg from the window that had shattered upon impact. it stings & she breathes to calm the waking nerves that threaten to spill at the simplicity that it hurts. Ashley wants to tell her to take it out but even she seen enough movies to know that something you absolutely don't do. " okay sorry ... " she does try to stop squirming , when Helena tries her best to stabilize it.

bright optics look around & it absolute chaos , a thin layer of dust settles through cracks of sunbeams spilling through the now split walls. " what do we do ? " she trusts her to make the right choice , when Ashley father had assigned her to accompany the blonde on a meeting that he was confident his daughter could handle for him while he takes of matters at home. that all it was meant to be & everything had been going smoothly , they had made it to the location , waiting for the rest of the attendees to arrive the soft ticking of the office room was calming / suddenly this is there current situation.

she doesn't look back at her leg again , knowing the more she stares at it the worse it going to look instead opting for her gaze to tilt & focus on Helena to momentarily distract from the constant spike of pain at any slight movement.

[plagasaved]

happy pride month everyone !! <33 🌈

"You've been hiding this for days, haven't you."

answered from * BLOOD ON YOUR SLEEVE ! @elpisrot

a slip on her end , when she's helping Grace with something as mundane as organizing & she shifts the wrong way ( * making brows furrow , the wound she had acquired during a field rescue. ) which leads to this , propped up on a chair in her kitchen with a first aid kit open on the counter besides her.

" I know , I just figured why make you worry. " which now when she says it outloud itsounds dumb as the blonde watches her carefully wrap the area blotted in darkened red.

" got it while during the rescue op I told you 'bout. slipped on debris that looked stable at first & cut my arm on a edge , I guess I'm not that cool to you anymore right ? " she tries to humour ; it not the first time after all / no matter how careful she is , she can't predict every possible danger. Ashley thinks it works when there even a speck of a smile on features ( * but ultimately the agent knows what Grace will tell her. ) " next time, I'll tell you. "

[harperhydra]

[ BANDAGE ] : sender bandages a wound on receiver.

"Careful, princess, don't burn yourself." She scoffs, holding her arm out and aloft as the blood from the laceration smoldered on her skin. Her other hand was in the middle of fishing a red glucose packet out of the satchels on her belt, ripping the top off with her teeth before upending the thing into her mouth.

Why the hell was healing such an ugly chore for her...?

"You handled yourself pretty well." She eventually shrugs, looking the woman over slowly. "Your dad was always talking about your accomplishments when I was on his detail. I'll admit I wasn't expecting a lot despite it, but, you proved me wrong... Thanks."

[plagasaved]

ashley isn't an expert by any means , but bandaging is basic enough when she knows the couple of things that do matter in the progress ; reaching into the small medkit propped up open by her side. looking through it as she finds the sterile wipes. " thanks , I'm a lot tougher then I look right ? " a small chuckle paired with the humoured response, it nice to hear. " this might sting a little. "

she still tries to be as careful as she can , cleaning around before the blonde reaches for a fresh bandage wrapping it around till it looks right. a smile as she hears that. " oh gosh , yeah he likes to go on about that & i get it but sometimes it still embarrassing to hear you know. so it means a lot , i know there must be not alot to expect. " she gets that & it not anything surprising so there a liff of pride at exceeding expectations.

leaning back slightly to let her check. " is that alright ? maybe I should have aimed to be a nurse. "

[plagasaved]

re4r has so many little details about Ashley that I adore , she's not trained or experienced but absolutely terrified yet that doesn't stop her from trying to help as the events progress it easy for her to just run away hide in some corner but she doesnt and will actively go out her way facing that fear head on to help

[plagasaved]

• You're going to be alright. I promise you. ~ sabrina!

* answered from BLOOD ON YOUR SLEEVE ! ( @5weetheart )

" you say that but I tripped over a soda can & now I'm collecting plasters. " not that she's mad , Ashley was the one who insisted she wanted to come with even if Sabrina had asked if she was sure ( * it means alot to you so if I can I want to ) that wore her exact words. she was just a little embarrassed if anything , sat down on some dust layered desk that looked sturdy enough to sit on as Sabrina patched up her arm which had collected a linear cut * blood bubbling as it was wiped away. nipping at corner of tier at the sting that follows it , brows softly furrowed.

" do you think it'll scar ? 'cause It going to be such a lame reason if it does. " a small chuckle leaving tiers to humour them both. no heroic meaning or a story to share when noticed just Ashley own lack of checking where she's stepping. ( * granted the torches they had brought had little to help in coordinating around the old creaking building ) & when one of those flashlights had momentarily started flickered at a right corner up the hall / now that was just unnecessary if you ask her.

[plagasaved]

authentic friendships wore a rarity , when no matter how sociable the blonde could be her father status even before the big shift to for a shiny new title loomed over her ( * many still hesitated to approach or wore more the eager to in ulterior motives ) she was happy though , with the ones she kept close. Blair had been one of those ; friendship formed over time / through fond memories inseparable till the joke that they wore stuck at the hip had been something to be frequently heard ... college had been a slight different story yet it hadn't stopped them even then.

a smile cut through instantly on tiers when she saw her outside of the hall , hurrying her steps slightly till she was right next to her. Ashley laughter filtered at the observation ; even with the the concealer below the eyelids & the orange pigment of eyeshadow highlighting forestry hues Blair saw right through the disdain. " policy trades , it a new one they added and you'd be right 'bout the pop quiz last minute and all. " she did well on it , confident about that but when the blonde had been one of the first ones done ... well the wait itself had been a real drag to go through.

arms linked , shifting the cashmere bag to the other side with her free arm. " should I ask what you have in mind ? " or leave it as a surprise ( * well knowing her the blonde has a good idea ) of what to expect as they soon step out , campus grounds lit up with greenery & the warm sun high up. guards sticking close behind , if there curious stares fixated their way as they pass through Ashley pays it no mind attention fixed on her friend , catching up with what she had missed.

[redemptioninterlude]

college was a lucky thing. honestly? before then, blair had been, admittedly, more sheltered. sheltered in the way that rich girls were, behind the power of wealth, even as she was exposed to, and saw the world. the one she knew of was a safer, kinder place thanks to the privileged her life afforded her. blair hadn't even appreciated the depths of that before COLLEGE. and meeting all kinds of people had blown up her perception of things far more than traveling across india for a summer, or her school breaks in spain, or those times in tokyo spent shopping with friends. this? and people like ashley made her feel... well.. almost human again.

"trade policy? urgh. just say at any given moment, we or they might blow everything up in the name of populism. then you can spend your time arguing about that then the inane rules that are half made up about trade. something, something, a pound of iron is worth a pound of feathers, in all things but the eye of the beholder. SAME THING." well, maybe it was a good thing that blair was going into law, given the way that she saw things. "i know you like, did amazing though. didn't we study forever last week?"

outside of the campus, the world blooms. it's so full of a HOPE that she can't describe. the grin on her face remains, as she started rattling on about her newest classes, the way that she was doing well, or struggling in others. "i'm literally downloading every productivity tool. i'm being productive about being productive." which was half laughable. "i was thinking... shopping, food. i feel you're like, not getting enough socializing out here and i think we have to change that. then~ of course, depending on the vibe, we could always hit up that new hotel bar that opened, but only if you want a bunch of older men buying you drinks and trying to tell you that they've never felt this way before. the tragedy of all hotel bars."

[plagasaved]

" tempting offer , I'll consider it next time I hear the word fun and pop quiz used in the same sentence ; 'cause they do not belong together & that a fact. " she gets the intention but when it still early and her brain catching up with the morning caffeine boost it only prompts a furrow of the brows and what felt like a drag of an hour. Ashley ultimate savour had been that Blair had kept her company last week , going through the topic / studying together was a thousand times more productive ( * rewarded in a cafe trip around the local area and a small shopping trip that ended with matching phone charms ) so even with her dislike there was nothing to worry about.

" we did , you're the best study partner a girl can ask for seriously. " she wouldn't have had half the motivation without her. not that she would avoided it all together ; Ashley had her aspirations as Blair had. the blonde listens keenly , nodding & adding her own view or comment in some parts. small chuckle rising from tinted tiers. " you're going to have to send me the link to them productively tools , sounds 'bout right though. " it something that she had admired / how determined she was.

" sounds like a plan , a little socializing be good I fee like I been head first in books this entire week. " she could memorize some pages arranged on her desk by heart if someone asked her to / which didn't feel like something to proudly admit.

" you mean the sweet talk of ' I just feel this spark you know ' & babbling compliments that are tot' so orginal and not from some pickup lines that work on the ladies site ? " soft laughter ringing out at the thought. " maybe , if we exclude that I heard it pretty fun and be nice to let loose & not think 'bout anything class related. "

[plagasaved]

starter for bladeau * @requiem-shots !

brows furrowed in concentration , shifting slightly when she see's her coworker coming up. Ashley already know's what's up when Maddy has that look on her face ( * the curl of a brow & lips curled into a knowing grin ) it the look of ' you don't have to tell me , I know there something going on between you two ' she's quizzed her about it too , multiple times so much that Ashley has grudgingly memorized each question thrown at her. reaching in her jean pocket for her phone & opening up her messages.

[ text ] stop visiting my workplace. you're giving them ideas.

she doesn't need the speculations about her love life , not when the slayer already has a whole platter of recent heightened vampire activites in the area to deal with. setting down the box & fetching her jacket , already imagining the smug look on his face when he see's her.

[requiem-shots]

[ text ] : What kind of ideas?

He was nearly smirking, he knew what she might say and to be fair, he didn't really mind. It wasn't like Ashley wasn't attractive ( she was, objectively so ) and he enjoyed her company. Besides, were they not allowed to speak outside of normal business hours ? That thought alone made him nearly chuckle, considering the business both of them were in. Unconventional, completely abnormal to some and yet to them this was everyday life. The DSO agent had chosen this; well it was thrust upon him really. Even more so when they realized his abilities, being what he was. The job also granted him the freedom to do what he wanted, although he was sure that came from the fact that they were afraid of him. No one ever really told him no and Leon wanted to keep it that way.

[ text ] : Maybe you're giving them ideas....

He almost didn't hit send on the text, but he chose to let it ride. Maybe she was in fact putting off the vibe that she enjoyed him far more than she let on. The idea settled in his mind; did he want someone that close ? Especially someone that wanted to shove a silver stake into his chest the first time they'd met.

[plagasaved]

Ashley had counted each day like one of it would be her last truthfully , he had became a unexpected equation to the mix the very thought that this became a routine was dangerous. maybe she could dull out the threatening thought of admitting to herself that someone becoming so familiar in her life was nice when the slayer didn't want to put that burden of lost on another. her eyes roll when she see's the message leaving it on read.

bright optics spot him immediately, when she appears from the staff room. " Maddy grilling me on ' my secretive romance with the handsome no named guy waiting for me ' again. " leaving out the obscene questions that she doesn't feel the need or want to share. " I'm guessing you seen the news too & I mean it I can handle it. I just need to get some stuff from my place. "

attacks surfacing , the media had coined it as unexpected animal attacks in the local area advising people to stay away until it was resolved. ( * not that they would listen , with the clubs around it fall out the other ear. ) it was logical , to someone who didn't have the knowlege they had.
