here i am telling her something that could destroy her faith in humanity, and somehow she manages to repair a little piece of mind. the world is full of EVIL and lies and pain and DEATH, and you can't hide from it. you can only face it. the question is, when you do, how do you respond? who do you become? dependent daisy johnson SKYE of BOUNDEDHQ. presented by PENNY.
❛ just give me a second , dude . ❜ the brunette says , eyes trained on the laptop ( old reliable , she takes to calling it these days ) as her fingers moved across the keyboard . they had the muscle memory , of course , so that skye wouldn’t have to look at her fingers — but she liked to make sure she got through the job . said job being looking up anything about the rude customer from this morning out there . the girl presses the Enter key as she looked up , screen searching all databases . ❛ — okay , aye . wassup ? ❜
as it turned out, even if you woke up one morning more confused than not, with a feeling of heaviness and dreadfulness clutching your chest and the inability to place where it was coming from. even if you had to puzzle your life back together as best as you could with all the missing pieces, you could always rely on exercise to take away some of the tension. and so there she was, in one of new york’s shadiest and less known gyms, punching the bag as if her life depended on it.
“ten more minutes and it is all yours.” sweat was dripping from her forehead as her head turned slightly to look at the other with a small smile.
the smell of SWEAT fills her nostrils , non sensual grunts , and weird squeaking on mats were all parts of the reason that skye has never really worked out in the past . and yet ? she wakes up this morning with an URGE to go to the gym - so alas , with all her free time ? she sneaks in . but - just because she can get in , doesn’t mean she knows how to use any of the equipment .
“ you’re fine . i have a feeling that if i use that , it’ll punch me right back . ” there’s a chuckle of amusement at her own self , head shaking . “ i need like , the most BEGINNER thing here . ”
it’s strange. possibly one of the strangest things he’s seen. well, in real life that is. his dreams tended to be as weird as this; sometimes he’d see something akin to blue fire or lightening come from his fingertips. sometimes there were aliens - and not the kind from any sci-fi movie he’s watched. but those were dreams. nonsensical things his subconscious brought up because of his tendency to lose hours to comic books. either way, that was fiction. this… thing was right THERE. he’d had to tilt his head back quite a bit just to take in all of it. his fingers twitch slightly; itching to not only touch it but draw it. immortalize it in his sketchbook. without turning to the person next to him, he practically breathes out, “what is this?”
dark eyes enjoy the scene too , skye sitting out there to watch it go by . she has THEORIES , of course ! but she’s not trying to scare the kid into thinking she’s a conspiracist theorist ( she’s not ; skye is just a VERY open minded woman , she likes to think ) . “ --- aliens . ” is what she settles on , nodding up at it . “ ... unless you have any other suggestions ? ”
“excuse me!” tony stark wa an adorned name, even with people who weren’t gifted. asking where stark industries was located wouldn’t hurt, right? not be questioned, even. the first person she caught eyes with would be the one to ask. “sorry, but do you know how to get to stark industries?” nothing but a new girl in new york, right?
she pauses , fingers pushing stray hairs to the side . “ do i KNOW how to get to stark industries ? ” oh does she - almost too well , if she’s being honest . skye was just there a few years ago , and whole ass BUILDING doesn’t just move in new york city , no matter how much money and superpowers were involved . “ -- yeah , i can walk you there . the gps get a bit WACK in that area . ”
blue eyes are focused above him, it’s dark, cloudy, it’s about to rain— or so he predicts. it’s one of those days in new york, quite gloomy, he noticed people with their umbrellas ready JUST IN CASE, but there’s a tiny piece of sky that still lingers bright, a hint of the sun hiding behind the big clouds. perhaps he should be heading out soon, but for the first time in a while, there’s a certain feeling of peace surrounding him. he has questions, maybe TOO MANY to be answered easily, but for one moment, and thanks to the freshly brewed coffee, the tranquility pushes them away. he notices a stranger just a few feet away, then looks behind him to pinpoint what could possibly bring her here. all the seats are taken, except for the one beside his table. “ looking for a seat, ma’m? ” steve asks, curiously, as her presence distracts him from the sight. “that one’s empty … i heard they serve the best coffee in new york right there, this place is at the verge of OVERFLOW, god knows how many people visit in one day alone. ”

her subtly , though she had apparently GAINED some within the past few months - is still ... lacking , for a lack of better wording . she thinks that the coffee shop is starting to CATCH ON to her using them for her free wifi ; but skye has ... assets that she puts to use when it comes to both the baristas and managers up front . today , she does make an appearance OUT of her van ; cleaned , with a fresh pair of clothes . it’s a GOOD DAY , according to her weather app . fall is moving in , and the people of twitter have spoken : she should definitely go outside and enjoy the damn weather . with a cup of HOT CHOCOLATE in her hand , brown hues fall on the form . she knows him . or ... recognizes him . --- oh , who is she kidding ? this is STEVE ROGERS . skye’s cosplayed outside of stark tower before . she definitely knows who he is . still ; they’re in PUBLIC , she’s got to keep her cool , right ? “ thanks mr ... sir ! ” a quick smile , she’s hoping it’s not too awkward before she plops herself down . skye turns to him , legs crossing as she does so and holds up her cup slightly . “ it’s actually hot chocolate . i have yet to find a coffee i actually enjoy ; but ... i did take to instagram for suggestions . ” wind blows , causing some dark hair to fly astray before she pushes it away . “ -- it is a whole lot less chaotic than i expected , with all the internet buzz going on about the place lately . ”
seems like DAISY JOHNSON SKYE didn’t survive thanos’ snap. what does this mean for the future of QUAKE? hopefully their +QUICKTHINKING, as well as their -IMPULSIVENESS will keep them sane through it all.
‘SUP MOTHER FUCKERS !! so i’m walking in 10 years late , but it’s a-okay bc i got some starbgucks for everyone !! anyways it’s penny again ( again cindy ) . i swear i’m alive i’ve just been tryna pass school and shit . anyways , this is my MAIN SQUEEZE daisy johnson ; my a1 since day 1 . i do play her as a mix from agents of shield & the comics ; but for the sake of the rp she’ll be more aos than comics ! that being said , i haven’t finished season five because i’m a traitor BUT - that’s what wikis are for amiright !?!?!?!?! for those who’ve watched , she’s technically canon to s5 , but literally is being played from before she even joined shield bc she don’t remember shit !! so that’s s1 daisy . so she ain’t even daisy , she’s straight up skye . for those of you who want to know the whole canon schpeal , the wiki’s right over here . for those of you who literally couldn’t give less of a fuck - here’s the sparknotes version of her !
has never known her birth parents , was raised in st. agnes’ orphanage / foster care literally all her life , used to be called mary sue poots UNTIL she made the decision to be called skye .
was a lil’ bit of a rebel at the orphanage , always liked to get dirty , climb trees , definitely had nuns scolding her once a week .
was never in a foster home for longer than a year , was always returned due to ‘ complications ’
which yanno , led her to having trust issues , etc .
dipped from the orphanage when she turned 18 ; she never finished high school , but instead got into a whole HACKING business - and she’s damn good at it .
lives in a van , basically homeless . has all of her equipment in said van .
is searching for anything about her parents ( but literally cannot find anything due to shield hiding it from her , plus being the reason she was moved around so much ) .
superhero fangirl , but working on keeping down her hype . she’s tryna be cool .
her powers are TECHNICALLY activated , but daisy isn’t aware . she assumes it’s coincidence or pure luck , if something works out in her favor .
that’s it for now ! its super late so im tired , but if u wanna plot hit the like !
