Dark!Rye/Dark AU in general
Alright alright so this is Elena’s story in the dark!Rye AU (yes, her full name. This’ll be explained)
- so her sister was still murdered and she still blamed herself
- Except this time it wasn’t just some assholes. It was because her stepfather had dealt in some shady shit with the mafia
- So Elena has like, a special kind of hatred in her heart for the mafia
- Her parents were,,, definitely not the greatest after everything happened
- She tended to spend most of her time with her (biological) uncle who happened to own a club where a lot of not so great people liked to hang out
- She likes to hang out in the dark corners of that club
- Listening in and gathering intel
- She only goes after people if she has enough information
- And most of the time, she makes sure she gets enough information
- She doesn’t really have a name but there are whispers of this little creature who preys on those much bigger than it
- On the more personal side of things
- There was no Rye to take her in off the streets, and show her what real love was
- No real family to be a part of
- So she never really moves on. She doesn’t really stop blaming herself
- Instead of her sisters image becoming something comforting
- Her image spits all of Elena’s insecurities and doubts at her
- Every thought of her becomes painful so she stops letting the few people she’s close with call her L
- (She secretly looks up to the Red Hood, wishing she could be so kind. But she doesn’t think she ever will)
I think that’s about it? If there’s anything else I’ll add it later
