            @sacrifought​   [ load.sys ]   sc .

      eyes focus carefully on the man in front of her . a visible but quiet deep breath before she speak , no one could mistake this face . “   jacob seed .   ” she allows gentle smile to fill her face first , before she steps across her threshold . door behind her denies entry but remains open as if a precaution . depending on what he said to her ; would it close forever or would she let him in ?

   “   i didn’t know you were coming to visit . you should have warned me in advance . is everything okay ?   ” smile remains , he’s giving her no reason yet to not extend kindness . “   you’ve been busy lately , i’m sure you don’t have the time to waste to be making house calls .   ”

      she talks while she works   ,   a bad habit when the person she’s talking to could possibly pry for information but she’s been around too long to care   .   “   people want to be noticed   .   if they aren’t   ,   it makes them feel invisible   .   all it takes is a little bit of attention   .   ”   fingers wrap around bottle pain pill cautiously as she holds it out to him   .

         blinking , she stares at frame in doorway . she’d only requested assistance moments before . there should have been no way the woman staring back at her was here right now . “ you told me you were going into john’s territory . ” a quiet shake to her voice , she had in fact waited to call for assistance , assuming the deputy had stepped away . “ how did you .. are you okay ? ”

         a sigh , one of the loudest she’s dropped in a week . there is never enough time and always more people . she’s front row seat to watching him get worse . “ you know , why don’t you make a bet on something ? make it a challenge . ” words leave lips slowly as she tightens the last of bandages , avoiding eye contact . “ at least this way , you’ve a reason to invest yourself in something -- even if you don’t have hope . ” a grimace dances across her face and then it’s gone , hope seems a joke when you live here now . she lifts her head , accidental eye contact and she’s sucked back into him again . “ find another reason to fight i suppose . ”

                  024. — Step on my muse’s fingers.                @sacrifought​   :   prompt

      the edge of the counter meets her hip in the most unpleasant way . the sound of papers fluttering replaces the second time she’s attempted to explain to him why she couldn’t share the information on documentation in her hand . she doesn’t know him well enough yet to know that her luck ran it’s coarse ; no is not an acceptable answer and certainly not the third time .

   “   fuck   .   ” she mutters in pained breath , knees meeting hardwood and reaching for papers in front of her . three gathered , the fourth and the one in question lies between them . no sooner had stilettoed nails met paper and curled , that pressure meets her hand . 

   she ignore the action at first , hand moves under his boot only a fraction before movement is denied to her completely . pressure turns to faint pain , it’s not enough to injure her at least not yet . eyes fly up to meet him , a look she hadn’t seen before on his lips . there’s a smile there , sinister in every last drop and his eyes seem to tempt to her deny him again . 

   “   jacob you know   --   ” a hiss interrupts denial , a hint of pain turns to needles , she can feel it radiating to her wrist , down her fingers , but she knows he’s controlling himself in calculated extent . he doesn’t let off even when he kneels down in front of her , as if he knows exactly how much she can take before he damages her ability to work . the needles turn to tingle now , coming from both sides as hand pushes into the floor . 

   three more seconds she meets his eyes before hand uncurls to relieve the ache , setting the document free of her grasp . it’s relent and resignation as she’s allowed to pull her hand back , not an utterance of resistance on her tongue . her eyes admit defeat , she had no intention of denying him again when his smile so clearly warns her against anymore more words not in his favor . 

   he could have broken her hand if he wanted and she saw it in his eyes . the flash of reminder that jacob had let her keep it ; despite her refusal . the throbbing would be a reminder the next few days that it had been by his own grace and his allowance that she could continue to work .

               “ i've got nowhere else to be. ”                @pinepariah​   :   prompt

      it’s always strange   ,   the feeling of company   .   she’s grown used to the solitary the cabin allows for   ;   despite random eden’s gate everything that may wander a bit too high   .   perhaps in her proximity then   ,   to the lumber will that makes way for them   . 

   deep breath in   ;   she’s not sure how to act with people that aren’t injured much anymore   . they all want a choice from her   ,   she’s got no intention of making one   . 

“   i’ve got nowhere else to be   .   ” 

   answer to words devised in her head a million ways in the span of seconds as smile pulls at her lips   .   the way her eyebrow lifts is flirtatious at best   ,   but it’s a common place response from the small girl before she lets out a shortened laugh   .   “   so you choose the pass the time with me   ?   i’m honored for the company   .   ”   there’s truth in words she rolls in them in exaggerated sarcasm   . 

   “   it’s okay   ,   you can admit watching the hermit come out of the cabin is worth the speculation   .   i’ll only be hurt for five minutes at most   .   ”

               ❛ They got greedy, started taking things that didn’t belong to ‘em. ❜                @haleraise​   ::   prompt

      “   everyone gets greedy   ..   ” 

   she smiles as though topic doesn’t bother her   ,   feigned ignorance is one of her best qualities   .   the disgusting amount of practice it takes to watch the world burn in front of her and smile at it   . 

   the pull of her lips refuses to go to her ears   .   a calmness surrounding her face that doesn’t reflect in her eyes   .   there’s worry there   ,   it drowns her but she’s learned not to show it to those that don’t ask   .   it would be dangerous if she could lie with her eyes   ,   but it’s a skill she would probably never master   .   “   what did they take this time   ?   cheeseburger   ?   ”   she was joking   ,   evident by tone of her voice   .   it wouldn’t even be possible to steal that damn bear if they tried   .

kat is allergic to strawberries deathly allergic to strawberries . to the point that if she’s without her pen ( which she usually is ) if you don’t get her to a hospital and quick she will die . it’s a thing , she knows that . she’s only had two scares in her life with it , one when she was young and had them for the first time ever and the second when her ex boyfriend in university mixed up their anniversary cake with the girl’s he was cheating on her with and she took a bite of the strawberry short cake and ended up in the hospital .
