HORSEMAN - Would you still love me if I were a monster...?
@benchedhero asked: 🪞 : do they look at themselves in mirrors, or avoid them? why? 🧠 : what do they assume people think about them? 📉 : what's their most common self-criticism? 🧷 : who failed them first? 🖊️ : do they write things down or let thoughts rot in their head? 💔 : have they ever used sex to avoid something? 📜 : what promise do they regret making? :/ Grabbed one from each category, for Void Masu ofc, but feel free to discard any you don't feel like fulfilling.
Headcanon Questions || Accepting !!
Mirrors
i don't think she would avoid mirrors, she is more than capable of looking at herself, she doesn't resent herself or anything of the like, just severely depressed, although i do imagine that she tends to just... stare at herself for a while, simply getting lost in her own thoughts, still enthralled that she is the only person left of her world
Assumptions
she just assumes that the survivors think she is a lost cause, or that they simply do not like her, which could be true for a few, i can imagine johnny not being a fan of her and i can see them butting heads, but in reality; nobody hates her or wants her gone or anything, i think they want to help but don't know how to properly do so - either way; she genuinely believes that she is an outcast among them, literally aside from gambit who was the one who brought her back
Self Criticism
why did it have to be her? why did she have to be the sole survivor? why did she deserve to continue existing when there were others more deserving of it? when all she is going to do is wallow and wait to die? she doesn't believe she deserves this, is it selfish? yes, but she doesn't view it that way
Failed Her
herself. straight up. literally the only person she has to blame is herself for how she's feeling, how she's handling it, and how she chooses to go on, she really needs gambit to toss her off a building and make her fly... though given her everything; he really shouldn't-
Write or Rot
she does not write anything down, she draws and stuff, sure, but her thoughts are hers to keep, one less thing to worry the survivors around her, gambit especially because she isn't looking for a serious intervention because she left her stuff laying around and he just happened to find it
Distraction Sex
she hasn't, but like i said in my sunday hc post; she would 100% be accepting of that kind of distraction, sex isn't sacred to her - it's a form of pleasure - and she would be more than willing to both give and receive it because who cares? the only person she likely wouldn't do this with is johnny because she genuinely does not like him
Regretful Promise
why do i feel like gambit would make her promise to not die during the cassandra fight? as much as she chose to live during that fight, she dragged herself out of her depressive state to help, she can't LET herself die - even if it's out of her control, and she regrets that so much, at least in the moment, because what if she dies and he starts crying or some shit? ugh... she can't deal with that

go to pinterest and type in your muses name coreaesthetic and create a moodboard using nine images.
that being said; my fyt blesses me with images like these and so i made an edit-
Why was it so goddamn cold? When not too long ago the heat was all but KILLING her, wasn't it the beginning of Summer? Or at least upon the threshold of it... The shivering thing isn't sorry for hogging those blankets, holding & tugging them close to her chest in order to provide herself SOME amount of heat.
On top of her struggling to sleep as of late, now her fingertips were cold to the touch. Four degrees out... Jesus.
It was simply one of those nights where sleep wouldn't grace her no matter how much she tossed & turned, thoughts unwillingly invaded an ALREADY overclouded mind to the point where a distraction was in order, despite the late evening.
Thick white smoke huffs out silently after taking a drag off of a very much illegal cigar [ Cuban, to be exact ], staring into nothing as that familiar buzz seeped into her skull. She had surprisingly been cutting BACK on the alcohol, seeking her relief & escape through other substances, such as this. Sat upon the windowsill as the cool night air brushes against her skin & the sounds of the city are the only things that cut through the silence.
It would not be wise to see what those hands of hers could nab at this hour, even if Lady Luck graced her that SINGULAR time; she was no master thief. No reason to suit up & search for a last minute job just to get her hands dirty...
Sleep wasn't coming. She wasn't tired, not even by a bit.

the voidlings are disgusting.
❝ You know about the monsters in this world, right ?? There are ones called mimics, & the critter crew find this baby monster that follows Chiikawa home & begins living with them. They get very attached to it & care for it, but the little thing begins showing concerning signs like eating monsters its own size & biting Hachiware on the ear.
Eventually, one of the Yoroi, those are the armored guys you see running the stores & the jobs; finds out about the little monster & scared that he'll try & take it away or y'know... Worse... Chiikawa runs away with it back to the cave where they found it. They refuse to abandon the little monster despite the warnings of it might being a mimic, all seems well until the little monster begins to change into a larger form & chases them out of the cave, but flies away in order to avoid hurting Chiikawa or any of their friends because it did care for them.
Chiikawa hides their grief of losing the little monster by spending time with Hachiware & faking a smile, they go home, think about it & cry quietly... But of course, their friends come around to help them feel better because they knew something was still wrong.
Also the little monster's name was Chiikabu. ❞
