SUSIE : DELTARUNE

it’s susie. not susan.

big, purple, and mean (but maybe not as mean as she wants you to think)

here to kick ass and chew gum.. and she’s all out of gum

has a reputation of being her school’s most terrifying bully, but also somehow ended up being a hero in a completely different world

at first she thought it was lame.. but now, saving people is kinda cool

do you need to be shoved in a locker? or thrown at a high velocity? susie’s your monster

totally doesn’t have a tail. don’t even TRY looking.

[rudebustxr]

"Uhhh... purple scales, claws.." ... ".. teeth are there, yeah.. tail.."

"Damn, I gotta stop eating battery acid spaghetti before bed.. the fuck kinda dream was that??"

[madeupxmemory]

Naminé, really, had been just going about her schedule for the day. Sure, she has seen Susie before on campus. After all, Professor Tenna works a t the University like her dad, Legato Bluesummers, does. Naminé doesn't often cross paths with Susie, though.

Today seems to prove different. Naminé pauses when Susie stops and points at her, and then cusses at her. The blonde grits her teeth a little, but she doesn't yell back. Not even at the last remark. Instead, she just grins.

"Now, since when have you killed anyone, Susie? Outside of all your barking, I have yet to see you bite." Naminé quips back - a strong contrast to how quiet she appears - as the smile stays on her face.

"Besides, I'm here to see my Dad. His classroom is this way. I wasn't even aware I was 'following' you until you started yelling."

[rudebustxr]

"Wh--"

Funnily enough, Namine's lack of a reaction seemed to silence Susie all together; blinking widely at the other girl as she simply stared at her, her outstretched finger still hanging in the air. Usually, whenever she screamed at someone like that, they'd take off running in the other direction-- but she just.. stood there and took it. She barely even seemed phased by it at all.

That, paired with her words-- what she was apparently really doing-- was enough to make Susie's cheeks grow dark, fluster lighting up her entire face.

God, she was such a dumbass sometimes.

"S-... STUPID, I KNEW THAT!!" She did not know that. She was just desperately trying to save face, now abruptly shoving both her hands in the pockets of her jeans. "I was just, uh.. y'know.. giving you a warning, idiot. 'Cause, who knows what'll happen if you get too close to me."

Nothing would happen. But she wasn't about to let Namine think she was soft. It'd be better if everyone thought she was some freak, right?

"Why don't you ask every other person in our school, huh? They're pretty damn sure I'm the one making everyone disappear. Who's to say they're wrong?" if she wasn't so embarrassed, she probably would've tried to show off just how scary she was.. but Susie had a feeling it wasn't going to work on this girl. "Whatever, you're lucky-- don't want your dad catching on to what I'm doing. I'll leave you in one piece this time."

She turned back around, intending to start walking to where she was going-- to go meet up with Tenna. As if maybe, possibly, forgetting Namine was just going to keep 'following' her.

[edgedwing]

Sephiroth had stalked Susie around campus for the whole day. He had been hearing rumors about her being the killer and Sephiroth refused to believe it! There was no way that someone as cool as Susie would stoop to murder! Cool girls didn't do that sort of thing.

Sephiroth peeked around the corner as he watched Susie spray paint the wall. He watched her as she finished up her mural. He was in awe at her work. She really was too cool. Unfortunately, he leaned too far past the wall and stumbled out from hiding.

He froze for a moment when she spoke to him. Sephiroth didn't exactly have a plan if this sort of thing happened! He tried to pose himself casually.

"I was just around and noticed you walking down this alleyway," he said coolly. "It's been dangerous with students disappearing, y'know. Can't be too cautious."

[rudebustxr]

It took a minute for his words to really register-- he followed her down this way because, what, he was worried about her? Because of all the students that had gone missing lately, and he didn't want her to become one of them?

As nonchalant as Sephiroth was trying to make himself seem, acting like he'd just stumbled upon Susie and what she was up to.. his words actually sounded a little genuine.

It was enough to make her burst into laughter.

"HAH!" she balked, wrapping her arms around her stomach as the roar-like laughs echoed between the brick walls between them. "Seriously?! You think I'm in danger?"

Eventually, Susie let herself go; straightening up as she discarded the can of paint, and letting it roll onto the ground. She cut the distance between the two of them, getting dangerously close to Sephiroth, as she glowered at him from behind her messy curtain of bangs.

"Damn," she started, pushing her hand up against the wall next to them; revealing a hand soaked in red, as she dragged it down, leaving a print. It definitely wasn't just spray paint she got on herself. She smirked at the boy, baring her teeth.

"Haven't you heard? Everybody says it's me who's making all those people disappear. How stupid do you have to be to wind up alone with me, where no one else can hear your screams?"

EMERGENCY COMMISSIONS (UPDATE)

First of all, I wanted to thank each and every one of you for helping me get Lulu the help she needs. The fight is not over just yet. This is just an update of everything that's been going on.

I had taken Lulu to the vet a few weeks ago to get her checked. They weighed her, and she came up to 45 lbs and some change. The doctor at the vet prescribed her some 4 days' worth of Cerenia to help her with her nausea and vomiting.

Toward the end of her 2nd to last Cerenia, she showed signs of still needing to vomit (she was nauseated and salivating. Kept eating grass.)

----

This past week, we took her to the vet again, and this time to get a blood test. On the first visit, they ran her temperature and weight, checked her stomach and chest, and did two X-rays on her, all of which came back clean. Minus her weight being at 45 lbs. She's a pitbull mix.

The blood test result came back that same day, as we did an in-house test. Everything looked perfectly normal, except for her white blood cell count. That's a little higher than it should be. She also has a low number of this thing lymphsomething (which is something pitties are prone to getting), but the doctor wasn't paying much attention to that, as that is the last thing to check.

She was prescribed Cerenia once more, which has helped her, but she still shows signs of nausea, which leads to her eating grass, which then leads to her salivating and feeling the need to vomit. They prescribed her a medication called Clavamox that helps with infections and inflammation. It's supposed to flush those out, I believe?? They also gave her two cans of ZD Hills. She does not like. There doesn't seem to be any change for the better, to be honest. Which makes me worry. The next step is for an ultrasound to be done. It can either detect something in her stomach that an X-ray couldn't detect. Like a foreign body or something detrimental. An xray is around 500-600 and that is probably not including medications and all that jazz.

Sorry, this was so long, but I tried to keep it as condensed as possible. Thank you for taking the time to read this, though. If you or anyone you know is still willing to help in any way, please consider requesting my work for icons

stupid and stupider

[dreemerknight]

Susie's arms felt nice and warm around them, and Kris can't help but feel like they missed it. Which was a weird thing since they couldn't remember leaving at all. it was like their body remembered. And that was... scary. Or maybe it was the Soul that remembered, which was an uncomfortable thought that this Thing was even more aware of their situations than they were.

Kris wrapped their arms tight around Susie, gripping the back of her shirt and pulling her as close as they could. Like they were scared she herself would vanish the same as they apparently had. They buried their face against her shoulder, eyes shut tight, and took a deep breath.

Being hugged felt like coming home, when it was her hugging them.

"Sorry... I don't really get what happened, but... I'm glad I'm back. Promise it won't happen again - uh, I mean, if I have a choice, anyway." Kris said quietly, voice muffled by her shoulder.

I don't really want to leave you. Or Tenna. Or Chara.

Even though they have that promise to keep to Dess... Damn it. So many promises they just can't keep up with.

Kris sighed, hiding their face against Susie's neck. They aren't going to think about that. Just that Susie is there, and that they're there. Things were going to be okay. Even if it was infuriating that the Soul just sat in their chest, feeling smug in the fact that it knew more than they did. It was nothing new, but it was annoying regardless.

"... Can I do anything to make it up to you? For worrying you?"

[rudebustxr]

When they hugged her back, Susie finally felt every inch of doubt leave her; closing her eyes as she pulled them as close as she could. One arm around their smaller frame became two, keeping her head hidden from the rest of the world; allowing herself to really feel that Kris was there, they were back.. and as long as they could help it, they wouldn't be going anywhere.

.. yeah. As long as they could help it. As long as any of them could. That was the shitty thing in the end, huh? No one here had a choice, no matter how much they might've wanted to stay. She probably.. could've been happy here, forever, if it wasn't for everyone back at home. Ralsei, Noelle, Undyne.. all those people they were supposed to protect. She couldn't just live the rest of her life without seeing her destiny through, with what the prophecy had in store, but..

Damn. Sometimes, when she was alone, she'd think about it. How happy it'd make her. But she wouldn't be a real hero if she just ignored all her responsibilities for her own happiness, would she?

".. nah, it's okay," she eventually managed to say, tilting her head some as she felt a smile coming onto her features. "I'm just glad you're home."

God, if that wasn't cheesy enough-- Kris's next set of words definitely caught her off guard, making the girl's head shoot straight up, as her hands were suddenly holding their shoulders.

"Can you-- h-huh?!"

For some reason, that made her whole face light up; deep crimson staining her purple scales, as she quickly messed Kris's hair up so they wouldn't see. ... hopefully, at least.

"Wh-what's there to even make up for, huh? It wasn't even your fault, dumbass..!" she didn't even know why that got such a reaction out of her-- it wasn't like she was mad at them! And she DEFINITELY wasn't worried! Damn, just them being there still was all she cared about.. but..

"I-I mean, uhh.. y.. yeah! You can, y'know.." .. no, she DIDN'T know! Think, Susie, think! ".. man, I dunno! Let's just go do something fun! Like, go get sundaes and eat them 'til we barf or something!!"

[rudebustxr]

(  ✴ @madeupxmemory )

"HEY!! CAN YOU JUST LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE ALREADY?!"

Susie knew this girl-- but only in passing. She hung out with that other group of kids, the ones who were always sticking their noses where they weren't wanted-- and today, Namine was making it a point to be in Susie's business! Following her around wherever she went over campus, past the school, towards the university, even outside the auditorium-- and she wasn't even trying to hide it!

Susie finally stopped in her tracks, pointing an accusatory finger to the girl who was standing a few yards away from her.

"I KNOW you're following me, dumbass!! You're not even doing a good job!! The hell do you even want, huh?! Waiting to see if I kill someone?!"

"IF YOU'RE NOT CAREFUL, IT'S GONNA BE YOU!!"

[rudebustxr]

(  ✴ @edgedwing )

Being the adopted ward of a professor at the university, you would think Susie would be a shining example of the perfect student-- but she couldn't be any further from that. At the very least, Tenna never judged her for the habits she wasn't able to kick from before he took her in; even if he did very much encourage her to try and work on her grades more..

But Susie, of course, had other things in mind-- way more important things. Like finishing the graffiti in the back of an alley she started on, recently. She was finishing up a big TV, with what looked like a monster movie playing on the screen; tagging it with 'Susiezilla..' a totally original name of her own.

Though the steady stream of paint from the can came to a sudden halt when the teen heard a noise behind her, whipping her head around as golden irises glared daggers through her bangs. With red paint dripping down the wall, it was quite a sight to behold; though her haunches seemed to relax some, once she realized who it was that had come up behind her.

"... oh. It's one of you."

One of those dumb 'Burnout' kids. She didn't know his name, but recognized him pretty quickly; turning around to face him properly.

"The hell do you want?"

[charadrxxmxrr]

The little Dreemurr melts into Susie’s touch, going a little boneless as they do. Eyes fluttering shut, they just breathe for a moment.

“Of course. It is a special, secret holiday. It will just be you, Kris, and myself. There is no need to make a fuss about it.”

The way they had intended to spend their ‘birthday’, frankly. They can respect the need for privacy. Chara taps at their bottom lip for a moment, thoughtful.

“I think April 15th would be appropriate. A nice and sunny day. Not too close to now to be overwhelming, but far enough away that we can prepare. Is that satisfactory?”

[rudebustxr]

Susie grew quiet for a moment-- contemplative, as she hummed. A hand came up, ruffling the back of Chara's head as she eventually nodded.

"April 15th, huh.. yeah, alright. That sounds good."

It wasn't anywhere near her actual birthday.. so she wouldn't have to think of it like that. Just a day to spend with two people who meant everything to her-- nothing sounded better to Susie.

"Y-you, uh.. wanna tell Kris for me? I want 'em there and stuff, but it's just.. awkward.. to bring up. I guess. Out of nowhere." .. actually, that brought a good question up-- one she'd been a little too distracted to answer earlier. ".. why'd you wanna know when my birthday was, anyway? You've never brought it up before."

[charadrxxmxrr]

“I suppose we could have Papa Nico or Mister Dadnna help us with baking. I am, unfortunately. . . not good in the kitchen, either. Trust me.”

They laugh. (It’s not funny.)

At the squeeze, Chara squeezes back; they lean into Susie’s side a little bit, eyelashes just a little clumped with wetness. They swallow, and sigh.

“We should invite Kris. I think they would have a lot of fun.”

[rudebustxr]

"I mean, uh.. yeah, sure. Just as long as it's still.. kind of a lowkey holiday. Y'know?"

Susie wrapped her arms around Chara's shoulders as they nestled into her side, giving them a big, yet gentle hug. She held them close, silently for a minute, before she smiled again.

"Yeah. If they want to.. that'd be nice."

".. you wanna pick the day? I feel like you'd come up with a good one."

[rudebustxr]

<- a completely normal, well-rounded individual with no problems or issues AT ALL.

[charadrxxmxrr]

“Of course it is okay.”

Chara’s answer is immediate. There’s no masking hurt feelings; the smile hasn’t shifted. Chara doesn’t move to touch Susie, but they offer their hands to her if she wants.

“I understand.” And maybe they do. Maybe. Either way, Susie doesn’t have to explain it. “We can make a new day. Eating cake until we are sick sounds like a Fucking Delightful holiday.”

They know Susie thinks it’s funny when they swear. So Chara adds one, just for her.

“Do not feel guilty. There is nothing you have done worth agonizing over.”

[rudebustxr]

"... heh."

It took her a moment, but the light chuff that left her eventually did turn into a laugh; throwing her head back as Susie suddenly started to absolutely roar.

"Dude, right?! It's SO fucking delightful. We should seriously call it.. 'Fuck I Ate Too Much Cake and Now I'm Gonna Yack' Day. We can eat as many different kinds of cake as we want, and make 'em out of whatever we want!! Moss cake, chalk cake, uh.. normal ones. I guess, would also be cool. They'll suck ass if I make them, though, which I guess might help..??"

Even if it seemed like nothing had happened at all, Susie did eventually reach out to take one of Chara's hands; a real smile on her face present at last as she squeezed it gently, as sheepish as it still was.

".. thanks, Chara."

This was better than any birthday present she could have ever gotten.

[charadrxxmxrr]

“… — oh! I see.”

the smile stays on their face. Chara won’t let it drop. They won’t let it. They won’t … they won’t.

“I will apologize for my nosiness, then. Do forget I ever asked, Susie. It Will Not Happen Again.”

[rudebustxr]

.. yeah. She figured she'd get that reaction.

Always making things worse for other people, when they just wanted to be nice to her. Always letting the shit she experienced ruin any nice thing she could've ever gotten.

She was so proud of herself, sometimes. Of the things she accomplished in this world-- as a hero back at home. But the reminder of how worthless she really was always came back to bite her, just like her last night back in Hometown, when she dropped Kris back off at home and left them alone.

She was so god damn stupid, huh. Even now, when she felt the safest she'd ever been.

".. Chara, I.."

".. it's not you. Okay? I'm not.. trying to be an asshole." Even though she definitely was being one. "I don't.. really want to get into it, but I just.."

The hand on her forehead moved, scrubbing at the top of her head instead.

".. it means a lot, that you wanna.. do something nice for me. But I'd rather it be for.. something else. Like.. we make up a brand new holiday, or something. Or eat cake until we're sick, just because we feel like it. I don't want it to be.. for that. Does that, uh.." through her mess of hair, her eyes finally found them again; still shielding her, but only somewhat. ".. is that okay?"

[charadrxxmxrr]

“Oh”

a beat. And then, Chara smiles again.

“Why did you not say that in the first place? I will be honest with you, Susie, and admit that the day we celebrated is not the day I was born either. It was the day I chose. So let me rephrase the question.

when would you like to celebrate your birthday?”

[rudebustxr]

"............................"

God, she felt like such an asshole. She breathed out through her snout, absentmindedly shoving her palm against her forehead; messing her bangs up enough to have them obscure her eyes.

"I don't." She stated plainly, the faintest trace of something glowering under her words. "I don't want to."

...

"Sorry."

[rudebustxr]

@charadrxxmxrr: “Because you were very kind for my birthday,” Chara says, simple and effective, “I would like to return the favor. You would not deny me that, would you?”

Susie seemed fine, up until that last part. Her hand twitched over her arm, before claws gripped into the sleeve of her sweater.

She still didn't dare look at them.

"Yeah, and you're nice to me all the time. I don't need anything else."

.. maybe part of her realized she might have been coming across as a little harsh, so she tried to smirk a bit. Just slightly. It wasn't very convincing, though.

"Besides, I.. don't.. have.. one..??" .... what kind of stupid lie was that?! She would've kicked her own ass right then and there, if she could. "Yeah. I, uh. Lost it. Gone forever."

[rudebustxr]
