Welcome a very troubled android today.

[raijinshuuappreciation]

since it’s pride month, here are my go-to sexuality headcanons for our fabulous, powerful trio

Freed Justine: homosexual

Bickslow: pansexual

Evergreen: demisexual

I’ve always seen Freed as cisgender but I could see Bickslow as agender or nb and I really like the headcanon for Evergreen as transwoman <3

Bonus:

Laxus: demisexual,

because he's never really been shown to lust after someone or get a comedy scene when much nekkid flesh was shown (like, even Bix got such a scene when he wanted to peek at the girls in the swimming pool and most of the other men had at least one such a scene, too)

“With both Mirana’s and Fora’s side of the story, and knowing where Gluttony and Hope are, that finally answers all my questions.”

“You’re all gone aren’t you... you all fought bravely, you all did what you felt was right, even if it wasn’t of your own volition and.. you’re all gone.”

“And I..”

“I was just a coward who ran away when I saw how horrible we’d become.”

“Even now, I’m still running. You’ve all found something.”

“Hope..Gluttony, you’ve found a home. A friend, a family again...”

“Mirana you.. found someone to truly dedicate yourself too, and Fora.”

“You changed.. you became something so special, to think I hated you... maybe I hated you because I saw what we were in you the most, but now I can see what you’ve all become in you the most. Good...”

“And I.. what do I have. Looking at you talking with all these friends, looking at Mirana repairing her precious bridge for her goddess, while our other sisters protect their vampire with an unyielding presence.”

“Its suffocating.. I don’t think, I can follow you Fora, not again. I’m afraid I’ll feel that crushing fear, that I’ll run again. Even with this gift that found me, that you’re so hopeful for, I don’t want to face mother.”

“I don’t want to fight again, that creature.. look what it alone did Fora...what can we do? You’re something more, Mirana is too. But me, I’m just metal and flesh..”

“I’m scared Fora.”

“I’m a coward.”

“I can’t stay...I’m scared of dying, like all our sisters before.. lifeless bodies strewn about the field.. You’ve..misplaced your faith in me.. Fore.”

Here Rests My Fight

@wanderinghellkitten // Starter for Hailey

How long had it been since they last met, not too long but for Pride it had felt liek ages. The first time so jovial, so nice, so calm, it left the android with a good impression of the girl. And now, unsure what to do with herself, tired and fatigued and refusing to return home.

Pride found herself wandering the same place that she and Hailey met, tired looking eyes, odd for an android, but her mind had had no rest. No since seeing what her sister had done, not since hearing what happened to the others. 

she wanted out, and the only out she knew of, was this new found friend, this acquaintance.

If only she could find her, no wishing to push herself too far less true mental fatigue take over and she collapse. An android collapsing in public, not the best thing to happen.

A lesser evil

@wanderinghellkitten

As Jeanne promised, the next time Hailey would even get a whiff of her scent, of her magic presence would not be the next time Jeanne came to visit. But instead from a very different looking girl, one that for the moment seemed focused on purchasing what appeared to be a set of yarn and needles, strange really for someone with such a stern look on their face.

At least, until the purchase was complete and the items stored. Then this odd girl would smile briefly, breaking that almost ‘prideful’ look before turning her attention upon the set of eyes that was no doubt, probably focused on her too. “Hello.”

“Are you Hailey?”

Interlude - Strands and Desire, Business and Trade

Warning this first part contains implied triggering content by Lust at its end.

Pithaj Mog - Yarak System (54)

A battle takes place, a secret assassination team ambushing two of the chosen of cycles as they training further psyonic warriors and pilots.

The pawns run, but Landana the chosen of the strands, their long blue hair only matched by their wife’s, Yundata the chosen of desire. They both remain, staring down their foes, two of the Collective’s androids, Pride and Lust. Both here for a sole reason, seeking the whereabouts of their sister Envy.

In all cases, both of these pairs are perfectly in sync, their know each other’s routines, their skills, they wouldn’t lose to any set of two. But the Cycles are strong, stronger than both of the androids. 

Yet, by the time the dust settles on Yarak, it is not Pride and Lust who are dead, but the couple of Cycles. Laying in the dirt, slaughtered, Landana cut in half, and Yundata barely alive at Lust’s feet.

Lust stands over Yundata, pulling at her pretty hair simply to remark.

“Strange, I didn’t expect to win...but here we are.” She pushes the other’s head into the dirt and jabs a knife through their shoulder to keep them there. “You two...a couple yes? I love couples, and you two are perfect..but today you were off beat. Strangely...you just seem....”

Lust leaned down to whisper at her captive, “cursed today.”

The sickening reality for Yundata is who she lost to, but that is not a tale needed to be told. Even Pride looks away, unsure of herself. Wondering where her sister is, addressing the damages received during the battle on her body.

“You enjoy yourself sister...I think...I have to go for now.” 

Pride steps away from her sister, not wishing to see her defile the loser of this battle, death awaits them but indignity it seems first.

The android leaves Lust to her cruel nature, stepping through the gateway. The last time seeing her sisters in this galaxy.

Tataria - Unalect System(66)

Found dead in her office, a fight shown and given, bullets and laser fire before all marks in the scene lead to the body of the Chairwoman Volusa Nummius.

Killed after hours by something or someone, the scene set almost to mimic how the Kansaku Queen was killed. Yet, as young Anthony Bendrew investigates the scene, he’s quick to realize how different this attack is. 

That is was not done as if committed by a beast, but as if committed by a lifeless robot. Cuts, shots, all too precise. 

Anthony takes his notes and turns to the officers. 

“Tell the Vice-chairman Miss Nummius is dead, but prepare me a shuttle to the Assembly. I believe we might be getting played by the Directive to make the Collective look like enemies. Perhaps, this is even the case for the Queen.”

Remains of the Caraveneer Coaltion - Chor’s Compass(4)

In the dust and debris, no life remains. The receptionist, the ancient Tuu’vak sacrificing themselves using a mental wave to teleport thousands to safety. But ultimately they and many others did not make it.

Among the dust however a faint life remains, a source of energy that drones are drawn to. As they near, they are burned from the inside out and their energy taken. The energy signature growing as it takes more and more, draining even patrolling cruisers dry of their power before finally, like a hum in the dark, a being of pure energy is seen.

Zak’Yanna, an oddity to all, a creature of pure energy reforms herself. Unable to answer the messages sent to her, yet she travels to the edge of the system. Awaiting another patrol fleet and upon arrival, is drained dry. Allowing the mysterious lady to reform fully.

“Unpleasant but.. its about time we go to the Assembly ourselves, isn’t it.”
