When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal.

Some are beautiful and poetic and satisfying.

Others are abrupt and unfair.

But most are just unremarkable,

unintentional,

clumsy.

Ava halts, her head turning on a swivel to stare up at the offending branches. While she's been around a couple of trees - some more mobile than others - that liked to try and grab people, there was only one surefire way to get them to back off. She marches over to it, smacking at a few of the lower branches.

"Tell 'em to fuck off," Another swat, and then a middle finger for good measure. "If they know what's good for 'em, they'll leave you be. Nothin' to worry about."

@cxffeeshxp said: “I think this place is haunted.” ~Leif creepy and kooky, mysterious and spooky … sentence starters

"Every place I walk into becomes haunted," Hands rest on her hips, her head cocking to the side as she surveys the room before them. Something else was probably there, even if Ava's not about to confirm that by actually seeing one. "You're not wrong, though. 'M used to bein' watched, and this sure as hell isn't her doing it. Whatever it is, I doubt it's anything bad, we woulda had more going on by now."

[unluckieststar]

He let out sigh. Was it really enough that he was just here? That he listened to her. He wanted to be able to save her somehow. He knew she had right to make her own decisions but, he cared about her. He care ALOT about her. She remind so much of him back when he was young that it almost hurt his soul. The secret was Jovanni never felt like he was doing anything right. He never felt like he ever made good choices. He was never sure if his other family ever felt that way either. He wished he gotten more time with them. More time to learn to be Joestar like those that came before him.

He took deep breath in as he listened to her speak. "I just don't wanna let the memory of my family down kid. That's the truth of the matter. I am last Joestar of the old universe. I guess I just feel if don't live up to their memory then maybe we truly did lose that day." He had not said this to anyone before.

"I miss my friends. I miss my old family. I feel like stranger in most places." He added as he scratched the back of his head. He peered back down at Ava. "I am glad I met you. You are my friend Ava."

[sinshosted]

Ava would have told him that it was, had he asked. Learning that mistakes had to be made in order for her to learn was a brutal awakening from how she had grown up, but it was one of the most important lessons that had been wholly glossed over for her. There was no use trying to protect her from something that she'd have to face later anyways, and she needed to be prepared for whatever life could throw at her. She doesn't dare voice it at the moment, but to her, one of the real signs that someone cared about her was to allow her to do something dumb and still stand by her.

"Do you think there's only one way to live up their memory?" There is some genuine curiosity behind her question, not as familiar with the concepts of living up to a pre-set notion of what a family should be. "I think they'd be, and are, proud of you for being yourself."

Ava snorts, the corners of her eyes crinkling up. "You 'nd me both." Her gaze lingers on him for a moment or two longer before she turns back to look at the wall. "As hard as it is, it's not all bad. There's a lot of things I wouldn't have ever been able to do, or people I would have been able to meet, if I was back where I was. I... I think the same applies to you, yeah?"

[sillymuses]

The mad hatter couldn't help but snicker in response. "Better to be a little bit of one than two-fifths!" Brows soon perk up at the question and Maddie took a moment to consider the idea. A nod is soon given and she stretches her arm out just a little bit more for the dragonfly.

"Of course! Hopefully I'm not nibbled upon given how sweet I smell." Living and working around so many sweet treats often rubbed off of the wonderlandian and gave her a wonderfully sweet scent.

"Crawl away, little one! I hope my arm gets a good rating."

[sinshosted]

Ava shrugs, watching the dragonfly have a shocking amount of restraint and not just doing whatever it wanted. "She pushes it on the daily. Sometimes she's a little worse about it, but I know 's just 'cus she's bored." Proper enrichment for them was hard to come by, as much as Ava would have loved to be able to give them more to do.

Peony squeaks in excitement, dive-bombing onto Maddie's hand and crawling around at rapid pace. It only pauses a few times before bee-lining for her arm, and there is even less hesitation as the insect scuttles all the way up to her shoulder. "Peony- Slow down-" Reaching over to rattle the plate that the cheesecake was on, Ava squints as the dragonfly slows down for but a moment before continuing on its merry way. "I think that's a stellar rating from her, she likes to get in people's faces but not this fast. I... I think she's also curious about Earl."

@redgentleengie @breakbeatperfect1on @sinshosted

----

It's a busy day at the park, people of all kinds of races tall and small setting up grillers, smokers, fire pits and spits- if it could hold a flame for cooking flesh, it was being set up. Morwen herself was busy with counting stock before hefting a butte of ale like it weighed nothing, setting it near her own little clay oven manifested from the ground with a fabrication spell. Her ears twitch upon hearing someone approach, head turning as she tied her hair back.

"Yeah? I'm not set up yet, still have to get the wood and the oven spatula. Oven's barely even dried out at that."

[sinshosted]

Breaking away from Odin, for once, was actually not an issue. There were enough different people around for neither of them to stand out too much, and she knew her friend wouldn't have nearly as much of a problem with her roaming around when there was fire. She's drifted around the edges of most of the groupings, largely avoiding interactions unless another person starts it up with her.

Ava freezes for a moment when she is addressed, staring like she's gotten herself into trouble. That fear passes quickly and she straightens back up, hands tangling into her hair as she shuffles a little closer.

Caution thrown to the wind, she glances down at the oven and back up, before offering up a weak smile. "Do, uh- D'ya want someone to run and grab you some wood?" The offer to light up the fire regardless of whether or not she needed someone to grab the firewood, is there but she'll curb that urge until the time comes.

[sillymuses]

The boogeymonster couldn't help but frown at the notion. How upsetting. It was important to have good people in your life! They could be there for you when you needed them the most. Be it as a guiding hand or just simply as a hand upon your shoulder.

Twyla paused as she looked upwards at the morning sky. Admittedly, the thought of space and other worlds out there didn't strike her all that often. It was a little bit daunting truthfully, plus the monster was much more interested in the history of here given she'd lived through quite a lot of it so far. Still, Twyla couldn't lie and say she wasn't curious.

"Do you mind if I ask a few questions about it? Just general stuff." A moment is taken to sip her drink and open up her small packet. "You might be a little bit shocked to hear that it's easier for us monsters to travel across dimensions rather than go up into space."

[sinshosted]

The vast expanse of space and the millions of planets that existed throughout the galaxy was extremely daunting. Had she not grown up being so familiar and reliant on inter-planetary voyages, she likely would have been in a similar headspace as Twyla about it. Of course, there was a little bit more history to pour over due to the absorption of so many cultures and people into one empire - something just as daunting to try and conceptualize, she'd think.

Ava had been trying to find a good way to hold her drink without spiking the temperature because she was fiddling with it, and answering some questions was a good way to make sure that she didn't do that. A sip is taken as she nods, offering Twyla a small smile. "Fire away! I, uh, I had kinda figured that... It's hard for most people to get past the atmosphere, let alone keep going further out of their own solar system."

[box0pals]

@sinshosted wanted Nora and Ava in a reincarnation as Sisters!

It was loud, devastating to the ears of the horns being sounded that an intruder had entered one of the fortresses on this forsaken island.

Yet, there is little hope, this has happened before. You have been here for years under a cruel taskmaster who found your draconic might all too useful. Taken as a hatchling, you do not know your siblings, family or if any or even if they're still alive, though the scent of the one that'd carry you on their back or let you be draped around their neck forever remained with you: even if you no longer remembered their face. But you are here, unable to escape and your great, growing strength is made use of here and has been for over a decade now- the collar around your neck keeping you in check. Yet, things would be different today as alarms sounded, a presence, a familiar one could now be felt in the other courtyard as you heard a struggle taking place; your fellow thralls stopping their work as they'd all onlook as well.

'After her!' 'Stop them!' 'The slaves are revolting! Call the Taskmaster!'

Then a rift of tealish hues would tear open as it'd crackle with purplish energy, a being would swiftly emerge in a blue dash of power with an elbow crash against this vile den of Rogues. Having knocked many of the guards aside, a hooded but horned figure in stitched hides dyed in purple had appeared. Without asking, you knew as they approached from scent alone who it was, the being that you could no longer remember other than their scent. And then Nora would grab Ava and immediately bite the magical collar clean in half with crackling electric teeth, freeing her sister while holding in her emotions, "We will talk later, Little Sister. Cover me while I free the other slaves as we need to escape this damnable island still. Kill them if you have to-... but don't make it a habit."

[sinshosted]

Ears flick, pressing back against her head the cacophony that follows the alarm. It was far too urgent to be one of the more bog-standard bids for freedom, and the draw of something familiar only proved that point. Watching as the guards begin to fall, Ava straightens up, lightly pushing a few of the others aside to get a better glimpse at what's coming. Things are moving too fast, and she doesn't have to wait much longer before the answer is upon her.

She turns wide eyes up towards them, fear settling for only a moment as she's grabbed, only for it to be replaced by a sharp grin. Anger is a powerful, fickle motivator, one that had been dammed up for far too long. It threatened to overtake her, tempered only by the knowledge that giving in would do little else than make things worse for those that couldn't stand up for themselves.

Ava rolls her shoulders, casting a glance up towards towards where she knows that the worst of the opposition will come from. "Death would be too good for them." She snarls, turning to kick one of the guards away. Each one that approaches past them would get a similar treatment - something just strong enough to incapacitate them, but not enough to cause mortal wounds.

[airxn]

𝐒𝐞𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐞𝐤 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐚𝐲 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨, a big grin spreads across Airin’s features, and he gives it a little wave. There shouldn’t be any issue within the bar. There are all sorts of avian shapeshifters who take flight inside, and there’s been no problems—in a while. He can’t promise if the dragonfly decided to poke around a bit, it wouldn’t be prodded at itself.

" Well, I’ve barely seen any movies, so I can’t say whether they’re accurate or not. " Theodosia has only shown him cartoons or anime, and when bars are in those, they’re so calm. But maybe that’s because he doesn’t feel like he must stay vigilant like when he’s at work.

The bouncer slides off his stool and sends a quick text to his backup. " C’mon, MB should be in the back offices right now, so we’ll have to pass a bit of the crowd to get there. " He cards the front door—the gear decor seated on it spins clockwise—and the door parts. Luckily, the noise isn’t spontaneous, as there’s a bit of hallway they have to walk through first.

[sinshosted]

Peony wouldn't have had an issue with more people paying attention to her, but Ava isn't about to let her fly around just yet. It is largely only here for moral support, as Magnolia would have been too much of a downer for this particular situation. Better for her mental health, yes, but certainly not for social situations.

"Eh, you're probably not missing much anyways, 's not like the scenes are that long..." The only movies Ava actually enjoyed watching were horror movies, and those rarely got air time. Most of those weren't even good either, but they were still leagues better than most of the others.

Ava straightens herself up, mentally steeling herself for having to be in close proximity to others, only to be immediately distracted and awed by the door opening. Wide eyes are turned up towards Airin, following after him once he begins to walk in. "That's sick! There's not enough cool doors in the world," She almost wants to ask if she can stop on the way back out to look at it, but decides that she can do that later if she's still feeling up to it. "People gotta make more. I know they're not like, practical, but... They're fun." Thinking about the door would keep her distracted enough to not think about the crowds hopefully, as Ava doubts that she'd be able to hear Airin once they get into the bar properly without having to yell over it.

[rustic-slaughter]

“Ghosts are real.”

Marnie replied to the original question with a cold nonchalance, not even glancing up from her book up until the mention of being followed by a ghost. She raised an eyebrow, studying Ava’s face as the girl continued talking.

“Alrighty...are we talkin’ literal ghosts, or is this a metaphor for somethin’?” She asked, bookmarking her page and chucking the book onto the couch next to her. Actual ghosts were one thing— Marnie fully believed the whole town was haunted— but if this was about to be a segway into past trauma, she'd need a different approach.

[sinshosted]

Ava really should stop being so worried about talking to Marnie about things, it hasn't been an issue yet and she doubts that it ever will be. Sitting herself down on the other end of the couch, Ava glances over her shoulder briefly before shooting Marnie a smile.

"Literal ghosts, 'm not that creative." There certainly was trauma associated with said ghost, but Ava was blunt about it. She had to be, for her own sanity. "Seven lucky people in the galaxy got, or are gonna get, some dead idiot who followed the one that 'm stuck with in dyin' and gettin' their souls attached to the next living being." Navigating the explanation of the pacts crosses her mind, but Ava isn't quite there yet. "All of 'em knew the ones attached to Odin and I, I think they all were in her empire or somethin'? There's a lot more there, but, uh... I'll get to that eventually. Just wanna make sure 'm bein' thorough, y'know?"

[sinshosted]

She has been watching this thunderstorm for twenty minutes. Don't worry about her edging closer to the open field.

"...I think I could take a whole lightning strike and walk it off fine."

[naughtyandnicerpmemes]

Reblog if I’m allowed to send you in character asks even if we have never talked before.

[dcmonfamiiily]

"Yeah, just given them a minute. Most of them will calm down and after that, they're chill." Almost as if on que, a dark red-brown dog-like creature came in through the dog door in the kitchen area. The dog creature had several eyes with one half being yellow and the other being orange. Upon seeing Marsha, the dog creature practically charged at Marsha just as the mastiff Marsha's was petting got out of the way.

Marsha braced for impact as the dog creature reached her. The dog creature jumped all over Marsha before it noticed Ava. But before he could give the same greeting to her, Marsha grabbed the dog creature by the collar to stop him. "Then there's this guy. This is Max. He's a little...crazy. Not really sure why? All I know that my little cousin wanted a puppy but got bored of it. Not to mention that no one bothered to do anything about his behavior and just dumped him onto me. Hold on let me just..."

Marsha began to harmonize. As she sang, something seemed to change in Max's behavior. Marsha let go of Max's collar and he stopped trying to jump on both teens. Max, now much more calmer than before, left to go lay down some where.

[sinshosted]

Ava's eyes light up at the sight of the creature that comes into the room, a hand moving like she wants to reach out and offer it to him before reason kicks back in. If he was already excitable, the last thing Marsha probably needed was Ava stepping in before the time was right. "I bet Max would love Peony," Her expression darkens as soon as Marsha says that he was, what she guesses, an impulse choice made by someone else. She waits until Marsha is done singing, the anger that had come over her slowly leaving as he seems to calm down.

"Lotta energy, doesn't know what to do with it?" She asks, watching Max leave. "He seems really sweet, though. I, um, I've heard people say they don't know what to do with pets like that, but I do think 's part of their charm." There's another pause, her head tilting. "Trainin' them helps them learn how to get all that energy out in a safe and productive way for them, right? Like with kids! People always told me growin' up that we needed to have a healthy way to get out all our energy, good or bad. Peony acts like I did when I was really little, 'nd obviously they're a whole different thing, but... I know that I need to guide her a little every once in a while."

[sinshosted]

@box0pals said: Ava. You stranded without your powers on an island, you can only bring one person with you that will also be without their powers and then one item of choice. What would it be and who would it be?

"That is kinda what 's like on the ship, 'cept it's the endless void of space, but..." It was a great question, the item being a harder choice to make over the person. "Odin, actually. Surprising as that is. He's more savvy with different environments than I am, I think he's got a better handle on how to survive without everything I'm used to. If I had to pick an item, probably a flint? Or whatever that thing is you need to make sparks for fire. Makeshift weapons 'nd traps can be made with stuff there, but fire 'nd keeping warm is a bigger issue. I think I could probably identify enough safe plants to eat, he knows how to hunt I think, it'd be way easier. We already kinda have to do that anyways."
