Rage

A mini drabble between Gin and her cousin Lyda Rose ( @blackwaldrogue ) in regards to the IC death of Belysa ( @captainbelysa )​.  As a side note, I loved Bells as a character, Gin just has very legitimate reasons for not liking her.  This would be longer, but I’m hurting so...here’s this, maybe I’ll finish it later.

“Lyda.”

The witch didn’t look up from her table, continuing her work.  “She died.”

“...aye.”

“And y’canno’ feel any remorse for her though you know it wasn’ her.”

“Can y’stop readin’ m’mind fer one bloody second!?”

Lyda looked up, her honey gold eyes meeting Gin’s sapphire ones.  A frown pulled at the witch’s face for a moment before she set down her tools, facing her cousin.  “Apologies, Ginny.  Bu’ y’know I can’ turn it off.”

Gin just waved her hand before sitting down, her head dropping into her hands.  “I wan’ t’ferget it, Lyda.  ‘M still ‘avin’ nigh’mares.  S-she go’ t’ferget it.  She go’ t’bloody ferget it all an’ ah wus left with th’mem’ry o’ ‘er face threatenin’ m’family…!”  Gin stood suddenly, letting out a growl as she spun around.  “An’ now ‘m bein’ scolded fer no’ seein’ ‘er as she really wus.  ‘Ow th’fuck ‘m ah s’posed t’do tha’ when ah’ll ah could see when ah looked at ‘er wus th’face tha’ threatened th’twins…!?”

Her jaw was clenched, frustrated tears pricking at the corners of her eyes.  She was angry.  Angry that she was expected to just be able to forgive the face that threatened her family simply because she knew Belysa wasn’t really the one doing it.  Angry that she couldn’t do that.  But mostly she was angry that Belysa had had the luxury of simply forgetting everything, that she’d caused herself to lose her memory to start over.

But just because she got to start over, didn’t mean there weren’t still consequences.

Lyda stood up, grabbing her cousin’s arm and pulling her closer, careful not to make her feel trapped.  “No one’s askin’ y’ta forget, Ginny.”  Lyda’s voice was calm as ever, attempting to calm down the seething hunter.  “Jus’...it’ll take some more time.  One day you’ll be able t’forgive her...an’ you’ll be able to make peace with her spirit.  Bu’ no one’s askin’ y’ta forget.”

Shadow Resistance

Okay, so…the other day Aren made the comment that Gin probably has some minor resistance to Shadow magic, just being that she’s exposed to it so regularly. And now I have thoughts about it across all her verses, and not just Shadow magic, necessarily, but dark magics in general.

So, across all her verses, Gin was forced to go into the Emerald Nightmare to retrieve Belysa and the other captives. While the Nightmare did have some effects on Gin (read: recurring and waking nightmares of watching her loved ones die), it did not have the effect it could have had on her. Now, the Nightmare is stronger than what Gin has been exposed to before, so it is possible that there may be some dormant side effects, but for now it was just very real night terrors of her loved ones.

While many of Gin’s contacts/friends/what have you use dark magics to varying degrees, I’m only hitting on her ships in this post, because that’s who she would be around the most.

Now here’s where we get to break down into her different verses because I’ve had a lot of free time lately, so this is what I’ve been thinking about:

v; main

In her main verse, Gin technically has two husbands. Terrick and the Shadow being that shared his body - referred to as Terror. Gin and Terrick met while he was still mostly Terror, so she was exposed to him a decent amount. Terror is currently out of the picture, but there is always the chance that he could come back. While Terror was still in the most control, he did use Shadow magic on Gin, mostly to protect her and sometimes just for fun. Now, while she was pregnant, Terror started to disappear, but at one point in time Terrick did give Gin his revolver - the Crowhunter - to her, which is linked to Terror somehow (forgive me, I don’t remember the details). Eventually, Terrick took the gun away from her, stating that if she stayed around it too long, she’d start hearing whispers of the Old Gods; but Gin never heard anything from the runes etched into it.

Continuing with Aren’s theory that Gin has probably built up a minor resistance, she’d probably have to hang onto the gun for a little bit longer before she started noticing anything.

v; piracy

So, this verse has Gin in a relationship with Gatz, who actively practices dark magic - which Gin most likely knows about to some extent - and is continually warned against him being twisted by it by a “concerned stalker.” Gin continues to ignore the warnings because she doesn’t see it. Not that she’s blinded by her affections for the man (though that may be a small factor), but simply she’s built up that much of a resistance, that she’s blind to it. Eventually, I’m sure something will cause her to see it, but at the present moment she doesn’t. This is possibly due to prior to Legion, she and Gatz only saw each other when they were both on land. (Though Gin did joke that he was stalking her due to him being able to find her so easily.)

v; drunkrunes

While Seaandra doesn’t use Shadow magics in the same sense as her other ships, there is obviously dark magic keeping the death knight animated and alive. Seaa once posed the question “doesn’t my undeath bother you” to Gin, to which she replied “no.” While Gin is not (and will never be) a fan of Sylvanas or the Forsaken, Gin realizes that death knights are a slightly different case. Whether she chooses to ignore this or simply doesn’t mind the magics is unclear.

v; shadows consume

This is the only non-shipping verse I will address in this post. In this verse, Gin has an entity of Shadow that follows her around, occasionally possessing Gin’s body. Gin has little to no knowledge of this being, most likely due to her close proximity with the entity at any given moment. Eventually, I may decide to have her become more aware, but for now…she remains blissfully ignorant.

❤

ULTIMATE SHIP MEME - Send my character a ❤ and I’ll fill in the form of what my character would do with yours.

(Accepting!)

I’m going with GinxBells being a hateship kind of thing…

Affectionate; (It’s a hateship, there is no affection.)Holding hands | Cheek kisses | Hugs from behind | Cuddling | Hand kiss | PDA | Spooning | Shared baths | Whispers (of DOOM) | Affectionate texts | Caressing | Stroke hair | No displays of affection

Sex; (Again, hateship, the purpose of this for both of them is purely carnal, so…yeah.)Shower sex | Wall sex | Neck bites | Oral | Morning sex | Drunk sex | Public sex | Backseat of car (or equivalent in Azeroth) | BDSM | No sex | (This is my own) Hate sex

Dates; (Hate dates.)Picnic | Cinema | Restaurant | Sports game | Hike | Coffee | Museum | Club | Bar | Beach | No dates

Would my character…

Marry them? Yes | No Have sex on the first date? Yes | NoConfess their attraction first? Yes | No Have children/adopt? Yes | No Die for your character? Yes | No Cheat on your character? Yes | No | Maybe (Okay, so this is a grey area.  Gin doesn’t cheat on her partners, unless it is explicitly stated that it’s open or just a fling (see: the GinxGatz ship).  She’s aware he sleeps with other people, and Gin will use him to make others jealous, though she does have a tendency to be possessive with him.  But that’s also less of a hateship than GinxBells would be.  GinxGatz has the tendency to be affectionate, even with their rocky past, I don’t see that happening with GinxBells.)Lie to them? Yes | No Cuddle after sex? Yes | No

GIN SHOT SHADOW BELLS IN BRADENSBROOK.  I’M SO HAPPY.  RNGESUS LOVES ME.  @captainbelysa

(Note: @dunnedinsniper this does not affect our plotting.)

Mapping

(More conversations between Gin and her cousin, @blackwaldrogue, before Gin goes off to find @captainbelysa.)

“We’re here, obviously,” Lyda indicated Bradensbrook on her map, plucking a small flower that had just bloomed off her arm to mark it.  “An’ th’World Tree is here.”  Another flower was placed on the map.

“Y’said th’Temple o’ Elune ‘ere ‘as some corrupted roots near it, aye?”

“Mm...prob’ly th’fastest route for you to take would be the road from Bradensbrook to the Temple.”  Lyda’s voice was calm, and it seemed to be calming Gin down some.  If only because the witch had been muttering spells underneath her breath to calm her cousin’s mind.  “You’ve no idea where in the roots her body lies, do you?”

Gin shook her head, letting out a frustrated sigh.  “No...bu’ ah can track ‘er, know ah can.”

“The area is heavy with the scent of corruption…”

“Ah’ll find ‘er, Lyda.”

Lyda’s eyes flashed briefly, the only sign of anger the otherwise calm witch would show.  “Calm yourself, Ginny.  If she is at the base of the World Tree, you will need t’go farther north west...towards the Dream Grove here.”  Another flower.

Gin just stared at the map, already plotting her course to the Tree.

“I wish y’wouldn’ go alone, Ginny.”

“Ah can’ put anyone else in danger, y’know tha’.”

A soft sigh.  “Fine.”

Val’Sharah

( @captainbelysa for storyline things, in which Gin reunites with her cousin @blackwaldrogue before going off to DOOM.)

Val’Sharah.

It reeked of corruption, not just of fel, but of Shadows.

“Virginia.”  Gin turned, meeting the familiar honey gold eyes of her cousin, just shifting out of her worgen form.  “What’re you doin’ here?”  Her arm creaked as the branch twisted back into a human shape.

“Could ask th’same o’ you, mate.  Didn’ y’give up tha whole ‘Arvest Witch thing?”

The rogue witch smiled, pulling the guard to the side to speak.  “You’ve a purpose.”

“Aye.”

Various bottles clinked together in the witch’s bag as she sorted through it, looking for something specific.  “I may no longer practice...well, fully, but th’Nightmare is dangerous.  Everythin’ is out of balance, Ginny.  One false move an’ you’ll be stuck.”  She pulled out a vial, looking at the contents before handing it to Gin.  “To clear your mind.  It’s loud and distracted.”

“Why d’you always know…?”

“One o’ m’many gifts...”

Gin just rolled her eyes, but accepted the vial.  “Thank ya, Lyda.”

“Mm.  Be careful, Ginny.”  She paused, reaching to brush a strand of raven hair from Gin’s eyes.  “I’ll keep a look out for Terrick...an’ y’know as well as I that Nait is excellent with children.  They’ll know their parents.”

Gin wasn’t so sure, but she nodded in agreement.  “Gotta map o’ this place, d’ya?”

“Of course.  Follow me.”
