hello ! my name is salem ( he/they ) and i'm 21+. my version of mystique has been developing since 2011 and i've only remade the blog in 2024. if there is anything that confuses you about my portrayal of her, please feel free to ask. at this point, she is mostly headcanon-based though all the films are incorporated in some way into my writing of her. rules under the readmore. this mystique is not comics-based. i will gladly write with comic muses as long as it's understood that i'm not writing the comic version of her. your character can still have their belief of who she is, disagree with her and dislike her, but it will be my own interpretation that you're writing with so you may get a different version than you're expecting.

i. this is a MYSTIQUE blog written by salem. it's PRIVATE AND selective. i only rp with mutuals. ooc interaction is open to all

ii. i am 21+, as is raven. i am nsfw friendly, though all will be tagged accordingly

iii. i am very slow. time between replies is usually roughly about two weeks. please be patient. if you think i may have lost a thread, please feel free to message me. i won’t mind. but please don’t pester. 

iv. i unfollow a blog after two months of inactivity. however, if you come back and see i have unfollowed, feel free to shoot me a message to let me know you’re back. i’ll gladly refollow. 

v. please tag all replies with my url in case i lose it.

vi. i have been writing mystique for over ten years, so most of this blog is headcanon-based. but i have and am more than willing to write in more movie-based verses

vii. if you go exclusive with another version of my character and we write often together, please tell me.

viii. ocs are welcome on this blog. however,i personally do not write with oc family members of canon characters. all other ocs are encouraged.

❝   awww..!  can  you  not  turn  into  someone...  sexier?   ❞

as  if  minami  understood  what  that  meant,  beyond  the  corporeal  violence  of  terrorists  (and  it  was  better  to  leave  such  bland  horrors  in  the  snow,  anyway).  she  only  parroted  the  strange  sounds  of  girls  who  passed  her  in  the  mall.  normal  girls.  lovely  girls.  she  could  play  at  being  one  of  them, with something to set the example.

@rvndrkhlme  was  almost  as  good  a  spy  as  she  was  a  mutant;  a  creature  of  utterly  irresistible  force,  a  bedlam  woman.  she  would  serve  as  her  litmus  test.  imitation  as  the  highest  form  of  flattery,  even  if  it  required  a  certain  amount  of  whining  to  get  there.

❝   it  would  make  this  cooperation  much more  pleasant...   ❞

[rvndrkhlme]

SHE TSKS her tongue , aggravation turning her borrowed blue eyes hard and sharp .

❝ focus on the cooperation , and you should be JUST FINE . if you were paying attention , you'd know that the less noticeable we are , THE BETTER . ❞

Richard Siken, from "Tablecloth"

[idontkillorphans]

Sleipnir chuckled, thick and fullbodied as he sipped his honied drink, watching the other work herself around the sentence.

"From what I heard, yes. Somewhat good, somewhat bad." He shrugged. "i believe the technically term is, anti-hero."

[rvndrkhlme]

HER BROWS both furrow and raise at the same , coloring with confusion .

❝ from what you've HEARD ? what does that mean ? ❞

[snkts]

A party, huh? … Okay, so maybe it was. But that didn't change how he felt about the whole mess. It put him on edge. But in the end, it’s Charles’ house, and Charles’ rules, and Charles has the right to invite anyone he wants. Doesn’t mean Logan has to like it. He growls and shakes his head, crossing his arms.

“Just don’t do anythin’ shady.”

[rvndrkhlme]

HER BROW arches .

❝ i could pass out plates for cake and you'd think it was shady . if you mean ' don't hurt anyone or plant any bombs - - - ' ❞ she holds up three fingers - ❝ promise . scout's honor . ❞

[asgardianhammer]

[ ϟ ]—– The spark kindles in her eyes, that brief flare of gold like lightning flaring through a storm cloud, and it causes naught but a soft rumble of appreciation to rumble forth. The irritation sits upon her like a cloak worn too tight, evident, and the god lets the moment pass in silence.

At the question however the corner of his mouth turns upward in open approval, as though she has finally spoken the one language he would always understand. Thor rises, broad shoulders rolled once, and moving toward the cabinet near the hearth the smile settles on his lips in a gentle curve.

' I do, some fine ale in fact. Strong enough to quiet the sharpest mind.'

The heavy bottle is taken and brought almost lazily, eyes narrowing almost playfully.

' And Raven, you need not wear another's face here. I would prefer it if you did not in fact.'

[rvndrkhlme]

SHE'S GLAD for his mention of ale , hoping he means of the asdgardian variety , as that's the only stuff she's found that can actually get her any sort of intoxicated . but she halts at his comment , that familiar tightening in her stomach she's come to associate with ANXIETY .

double - edged sword this one , isn't it ? either she admits her discomfort , of the insecurities that come with her true form . or she pretends to shrug it off and shift , and pretend those insecurities aren't bubbling behind her teeth the entire time . . . . ASSHOLE , she thinks .

her jaw clenches and the shift comes slowly , as if taking effort . a red brow arches over yellow eyes .

❝ there . SATISFIED ? ❞

[talvisoldat]

It was rather obvious Raven took the coment as more of a joke than anything, so Bucky simply smiled in return. "Of course...!" He chuckled. "Well... Having someone i know there makes the chance bigger that i'll actually show up so. guess that's good?"

[rvndrkhlme]

THE AMUSED smile softens into something gentler , warmer .

❝ great . then i guess i'll see you there ? ❞

“oh, ‎ ‎ ‎ what ‎ ‎ ‎ the— ‎ ‎ ‎ i’m ‎ ‎ ‎ sorry?” ‎ ‎ ‎ alison ‎ ‎ ‎ cracks ‎ ‎ ‎ up ‎ ‎ ‎ unexpectedly, ‎ ‎ ‎ mostly ‎ ‎ ‎ from ‎ ‎ ‎ being ‎ ‎ ‎ unprepared ‎ ‎ ‎ for ‎ ‎ ‎ that ‎ ‎ ‎ response ‎ ‎ ‎ to ‎ ‎ ‎ be ‎ ‎ ‎ dropped ‎ ‎ ‎ so ‎ ‎ ‎ casually ‎ ‎ ‎ like ‎ ‎ ‎ a ‎ ‎ ‎ weather ‎ ‎ ‎ report. ‎ ‎ ‎ “is ‎ ‎ ‎ that ‎ ‎ ‎ not ‎ ‎ ‎ a ‎ ‎ ‎ tuesday ‎ ‎ ‎ for ‎ ‎ ‎ you ‎ ‎ ‎ or ‎ ‎ ‎ somethin’? ‎ ‎ ‎ sure, ‎ ‎ ‎ politics ‎ ‎ ‎ in ‎ ‎ ‎ our ‎ ‎ ‎ country ‎ ‎ ‎ are ‎ ‎ ‎ a ‎ ‎ ‎ very… ‎ ‎ ‎ compellin’ ‎ ‎ ‎ subject ‎ ‎ ‎ matter—”

she ‎ ‎ ‎ sighs, ‎ ‎ ‎ then ‎ ‎ ‎ shrugs, ‎ ‎ ‎ then ‎ ‎ ‎ goes: ‎ ‎ ‎ “been ‎ ‎ ‎ there, ‎ ‎ ‎ done ‎ ‎ ‎ that, ‎ ‎ ‎ darlin’. ‎ ‎ ‎ all ‎ ‎ ‎ of ‎ ‎ ‎ the ‎ ‎ ‎ ups ‎ ‎ ‎ and ‎ ‎ ‎ downs ‎ ‎ ‎ and ‎ ‎ ‎ the ‎ ‎ ‎ cringiness ‎ ‎ ‎ of ‎ ‎ ‎ my ‎ ‎ ‎ twenties ‎ ‎ ‎ have ‎ ‎ ‎ got ‎ ‎ ‎ globally ‎ ‎ ‎ broadcast ‎ ‎ ‎ more ‎ ‎ ‎ or ‎ ‎ ‎ less; ‎ ‎ ‎ even ‎ ‎ ‎ my ‎ ‎ ‎ deaths ‎ ‎ ‎ and ‎ ‎ ‎ resurrections ‎ ‎ ‎ are ‎ ‎ ‎ public ‎ ‎ ‎ records, ‎ ‎ ‎ too. ‎ ‎ ‎ and ‎ ‎ ‎ so ‎ ‎ ‎ what? ‎ ‎ ‎ i’m ‎ ‎ ‎ still ‎ ‎ ‎ standin’, ‎ ‎ ‎ shinin’ ‎ ‎ ‎ just ‎ ‎ ‎ fine.”

[rvndrkhlme]

SHE CAN tell that dazzler has had a long time to think about this , sit with it and accept it . raven saved nixon almost ten years ago and she feels like she's STILL dealing with the fallout . well , the opposite of ' fallout ' she supposes . the ATTENTION , then ?

❝ i just wish they'd all look away , you know ? find someone else to ogle and WATCH . it's hard to do the things i do when a magazine posts when i grab milk from the store . ❞ not that she does that when she's blue particularly often , but still . the feeling remains .

[asgardianhammer]

[ ϟ ]—– Despite the tension a smile forms on the god's features, a chuckle rolling outward as he studies the flare within the mutant's gaze.

' It is not like you to yield so easily,' and golden head tilts, interest evident in thunderer's expression.

' Or to be so careless. What happened?'

[rvndrkhlme]

SHE MAKES a face , nose crinkling a little .

❝ i'm not yielding . i'm just not an idiot . if this were a real fight , i'd be DEAD right now . ❞ frustration sings in her blood . about this , about peter .

❝ NOTHING . ❞ it comes out a little snappier than she maybe meant it to . ❝ let's go again . ❞
