         ingrid plops down outside bernadetta’s door on the assumption that the purple - haired loner is in there.  if not, ingrid will simply look like an idiot.  she exhales, nervous to greet an old friend after so long apart.  “ bernadetta? ”  she calls softly.  she needs somewhere to be, away from the rest of the soldiers for now, away from her own thoughts of her family and betrayal, but not entirely alone.  “ it’s ingrid — i promise i won’t bang your door down, or make you spar with me or train with me.  i just... needed somewhere to clear my head. ”

“          well     done     .                    you’ve     become     an     even     more     skilled     archer     than     the     last     time     i’ve     seen     you     ,     bernadetta     .     take     another     shot     ,     try     for     a     longer     range     target     .          ”                   /      @leadenwill​     .

          “ are you saying you still don’t trust me? ”  cinder’s eye narrows, baring their teeth in their frustration.  they huff, eyes closing, gritting their teeth together like two saws grinding against each other.  cinder swallows.  “ you said it yourself, ” maiden begins, eye opening.  they step towards her calmly, crunch of leaves beneath their feet.  “ we are the unlucky few.  you and i. ”  stopping just in front of her, they inhale the chilled air into heated lungs, yet it’s her eyes that make them freeze.  

          “ the world has been cruel to us.  it squashes us like insects beneath its heels and leaves us broken to suffer the consequences. ”  fall pauses to take catra’s hand, gentle as a feather, and presses her palm against the marred, left side of their face.  they can barely feel it, the warmth of another against scar tissue.  their jaws clench like a string strung too tightly on an instrument.  “ because we are the same, i choose to trust you with seeing... this. ”  their stare is devoid of its lethality, yet iris fills to the brim with leaking disappointment.  “ i don’t know if i should trust you.  but i do.  i hope you will trust me with yours. ”

          “ whatever the case, it’s over, ” cinder states firmly, eye still fixated on the dirt path that lies ahead of the duo.  truthfully, neither of them know where they’re actually going, but somewhere, somewhere away from the rest of the world’s eyes.  “ eventually, i ended up with salem. ”  fall pauses their speech to lift their grimm arm, black palm facing upwards as they flex their fingers.  every time that they look at the evil incarnate attached to their body feels like it is the first time, still unused to its presence.  “ —- not that that did me any good, either, ” they mutter coldly.

         “ i suspect it is by miracle alone that you are here tonight. ”  hubert mumbles, turning to the panicked, purple - haired DISASTER  ( who trembles like a scared animal ) standing all by herself in the corner of the ballroom.  “ nevertheless, that you are here at all is progress, bernadetta. ”

the big scary bodyguard would be a great person to hide behind at the school - wide dance, @leadenwill​.

send me a  ✿  and i’ll fill out the template below. BOLD for things i could definitely see or want, italics for things i could see or am unsure of and striked out for things i don’t want or cannot see.

FRIENDSHIP.     childhood friends  /  work buddies or coworkers  /  family friends  /  friends with benefits  /  smoking buddies  /  adventure buddies  /  fake friends  /  recently friends  /  party buddies  /  friendship of need  / dying friendship  /  circumstantial friendship  /  partners in crime  /  old friendship  /  [ your muse ] is the good influence  /  [ your muse ] is the bad influence  /  [ my muse ] is the good influence  / [ my muse ] is the bad influence /  opposites attract  /  ride or die  /  frenemies  /  roommates or flatmates  /  penpals  /  exes to friends  /  enemies to friends  /  other .

all in all, it just depends on what you’d wanna do and what direction you’d wanna take them? i’m down for essentially anything. i sort of like the idea of like, a spontaneous romance popping up wayyyyy down the line should they both ultimately defect from salem? it doesn’t even need to be romance initially, but i love the thought of both of them despite everything realizing that… they don’t have anybody else aside from each other because of the way they’ve treated people over time, and that sort of binds them together in the end, even if they bicker. them realizing how similar they are… yeah. yeah. 

this sort of bonding could apply to an ultimately familial relationship too! like i said it just depends on the direction you want to take it.

i still love the she - ra verse we had planned out for them, and that could obviously result in an antagonistic relationship on that side of things should catra ultimately decide she’s scared of them. and in a general rwby verse, i’d imagine their relationship would start with them being pretty… at odds? especially if cinder reminds her of shadow weaver. ty for sending in <3

“ so this is what death is like ” BERNIIIIEEEEEEE

fe3h starters / not accepting / @leadenwill.

         “ bernadetta.  it’s not that bad, i promise. ”  leonie’s voice is tender, and she takes a cautious step closer to bernie’s frame.  “ you’re not dying, okay?  i’m just trying to help!  i’m already so proud of your progress, you know.  with a little bit of guidance, you’re going to be an even better archer. ”  the redhead inhales sharply as she analyzes her task.  she’s careful in how she approaches, all too knowing that bernadetta is currently a tiny, frightened kitten.  she won’t bite too hard — but she’s practically shaking, mewling for help.  leonie reaches out, eyeing her classmate’s reaction all the while.  she adjusts bernie’s elbow and guides her to straighten her posture, gloved hand sliding up her back all the while.  “ alright, ” she whispers, taking a step back and allowing bernie to take precious aim with her bow.  “ go ahead!  i guarantee your shot will be improved this time. ”
