5. things you didnāt say at all
This time, when she receives the message to execute 9S, she doesnāt even blink. Her partner meets up with her for a mission like always, and they head towards their destination like always, even though she knows there isnāt really a mission there for 9S like always. Itās only for her. Like always.
He talks to her their entire way there like always, too, but she canāt hear any of it. She canāt hear anything outside of her own head.
She wants to tell him: Why canāt you trust the Commander like I asked you to?
She wants to tell him: Why canāt you trust me like I asked you to?
She wants to tell him: Iām sorry that I have to do this to you.
She wants to tell him: I donāt want to do this to you.
Instead, as they reach their destination, she calls out to him, āNines.ā
āHm?ā He turns around easily, half a grin already forming. āWhat is it, 2B?ā
Her sword slides easily through his throat. He doesnāt even have time to be surprised before Pod 042 confirms his death. She removes her blade in one fluid sweep, and he drops straight to the ground, lifeless.
This time, he didnāt struggle. She thinks it might have been a mercy for her.
She wants to tell him: I miss you. I always miss you.

7. things you said while we were driving
9S has done a lot of things in his life. Heās flown from space, controlled machine bodies like they were his own, even died more times than heāll ever know. Heās felt pain, known hatred unlike anything else, has felt his heart quicken from the sinking sort of fear that settles deep into his bones. If he ever stopped to think about it, heād realize that itās a rather wide variety of experiences.
The fear that comes from speeding down a sand dune in a rickety-old truck though? This is definitely something new.
āAre you sure you donāt want me to drive, 2B? I donāt think weāre supposed to be going this faā!ā
āItās fine,ā she mutters, but he can barely hear her over the sound of her shifting gears. The truck rattles around, desperately trying to hold itself together. āJust fasten your seatbelt tighter.ā
Honestly, itās a miracle they were even able to get the truck this far into the desert. When the Resistance needed supplies delivered to a new outpost in the desert, they all quickly realized that the materials were too large and too numerous to go through the transporters. Even though it would take longer, the only way to get them to the desert would be to drive them.
āYou guys think youāll be okay with this?ā Anemone asked, hand patting the dusty hull of the truck. āIf we werenāt spread so thin right now, Iād just wait till one of the others came back and ask them to make the drive.ā
2B hummed softly, folding her arms as she looked at the vehicle. āWeāve piloted flight units before. This should be easy in comparison.ā
āYeah! Besides, I bet itāll be fun! Itās not everyday we get to use functioning equipment from the old world.ā He could barely contain himself from bouncing around the truck in excitement.
Anemone only eyed them silently before giving them the okay and explaining how to operate it. 2B instantly slid into the driverās seat, and heād be lying if he said he wasnāt disappointed that he didnāt get to drive it himself, but he figured heād have his turn on the way back.
Now, heās not sure if theyāll be making the drive back at all.
āWarning: Further pressing on the gas pedal may result in the engine stalling,ā warns Pod 042 as they try to make their way up another hill.
āMaybe try switching the gear back to 2? Or was it 3 for uphill, I donāt remember which Anemone said was for what.ā
2B says nothing, but with how he hears her gloves strain from the force of her grip on the steering wheel, he briefly thinks sheās having more of a fight with this vehicle than she has with any machine. Itās slow going, and he thinks the engine will give out from all the sand more than once, until they finally make it to the top of the hill. Only for even more sand dunes to stretch out seemingly endlessly before them. Beside him, 2B sighs.
āIām going to give the gas pedal a bit of a break. Get ready.ā
āWait, get ready for whaāā
She gives the pedal one more light push, and then theyāre tipping over, racing down a giant stretch of sand with nothing to stop them. Heās moved faster in a flight unit honestly, and this is far from the most dangerous situation heās ever been, but something about it sets his heart racing. Maybe itās the way the truck shakes the entire way, or maybe itās because heās not the one in control of driving and steering, but when he looks over at 2B to yell for help, he sees just the tiniest grin on her face, eyes wide and mouth open as if to laugh, andā
He laughs with her.
āWOOO!ā he shouts, throwing his hands up in the air. āYEAAAH, KEEP GOING!!ā
The two of them laugh and yell the whole way down, only stopping when they finally lose momentum partway up the next hill. 2B quickly puts the truck into park and turns to him with one of the most carefree smiles heās ever seen her with, teeth showing and cheeks red. He grins right back at her.
āLetās do that again!ā
āAre you sure?ā He doesnāt even hesitate to nod, even with both of their pods almost frantically spouting off warnings. She nods back and sets her hand back on the gear, engine revving and raring to go. āAlright. Get ready and hang on, Nines.ā
Itās going to be a long ride, and their materials might not survive the trip, but honestly? He wouldnāt have it any other way.

notes: a 2b9s series based on this prompt list. now featuring depressing a2. we were saved from a depressing permanent bad end in the recital but now i just do this to myself. why. (jk i know why i just love writing pain.) spoiler warnings for the whole game (and side material like the recitals and novellas now), etc etc, know what youāre getting into.
2. things you said through your teeth
By all means, A2 should be losing.
Itās one against two, maybe against four if she counts the boxes that wonāt stop shooting at her, the YoRHa units in front of her both beat her specs by leagues and leagues and leagues, and the one called ā2Bā might be one of the deadliest combat models sheās ever seen. Every blow lands with enough force to crush a head, every dodge so fluid and graceful she almost thinks Commandās figured out how to code sheer instinct instead of programming. If these are the combat models these days, she wouldnāt be surprised to see this war actually won.
She should be losing. She shouldāve already lost. As she closes the distance between her and the scanner only for 2B to throw her sword at her, she knows sheās already won.
Even with a weapon of his own, the scannerās the easierāand more dangerousāone by far. A2 could take out a horde of machines blind, but defending her own inner workings goes beyond what she knows. If he managed to succeed in hacking her, it would be over. She targets him without fail, his hand a second too slow to draw his sword every time, and his partner comes to defend him without fail. 2B defends 9S against every charge and every attack, even as her endurance falters, even as her weapons break.
This girl wasnāt made for this. A2 knows it, and so does she. But despite the girlās target standing right before her, despite the blindfold that hides her from reality, A2 knows exactly who her attention is focused on.
It reminds her of Number 4, and itās why she knows sheāll win.
A2 fights with nothing to lose. 2B fights with everything to lose.
āJust get out of here!ā 2B barks through grit teeth. She deflects A2ās sword with the broken shaft of her spear, her feet sliding underneath her with the weight of it. Itās only a matter of time. āRetreat and report back to Commaā!ā
āIām not leaving you here!ā
āI donāt matter, juāā
9S draws his sword and charges with a shout, 2B yelling over him even as she defends herself, but it doesnāt matter. A2 doesnāt stop for a second in her assault on her successor, and the moment the scanner swings his blade at her, she steps aside effortlessly from the both of them to run her blade through his neck.
She barely gives the girl time to register what even happened. 2Bās grip on her weapon goes slack, but before she can say his name, A2 spins around and does the same to her.
They fall with their hands stretched out towards each other. She knows that theyāll come back soon enough through the Bunker. Thereās even a good chance theyāll come after her again. As she looks down at them though, at their fingertips just almost brushing against each other, she knows without a doubt that no matter what they do, theyāll come back together.
GREETINGS FRIENDOS i just wanted to pop in real quick to say that iām still alive, iāve just fallen out of using tumblr lol.... somehow idly backtracking through tags and content has become too much for my lazy ass. iāll probably swing by every now and then to link ongoing fic i have since well i started them on tumblr and i might as well finish them on tumblr, but aside from that iām currently too lazy to keep up with tumblr anymore.
if you really (??? but really why would you want to) want to see me around still, iām always on twitter @ faerytells!

15. things you said with too many miles between us
āDo you think sheās alright?ā
āFor the thousandth time, obviously.ā
āYeah, butāā
A2 groans, sliding down the sand dunes as fast as possible. When Anemone said she needed some materials, it didnāt sound hard. Go to the desert, find some pieces, boom. Of course, it wasnāt until after she agreed that she found out there were multiple hotspots for the items, that 2B and 9S were going too, and that since she didnāt have a Pod of her own, sheād be going with one of them for communication purposes while the other checked out the other spot.
She thinks itās a bunch of bullshit, and she tells Anemone as much. The Resistance leader only laughs and tells her to haul ass already.
2B insists on going by herself to the forest, despite knowing how things went down between her and the kid, and she hasāno, who is she kidding. A2 knows exactly why her lookalike insists having her go with 9S rather than let him go it alone. Whether or not 2B thinks he can handle things alone after everything that happened, it doesnāt matter. Her priorities have always been crystal clear to her, even before everything, and this doesnāt change any of that.
The fact that she trusts her to take care of him still even after how disastrous the first time around went though? Even after seeing 2Bās entire life for herself, A2 still doesnāt understand her.
After transporting to the desert, she expects it to go as it usually does whenever 9S is around. No matter how long ago it was, awkward silences and tense replies are still about the best he could do with her. It suits her just fineāthe more silence, the better.
Except despite everything thatās happened between them, all the misunderstandings and anger and anguish, 9S will not shut up about 2B.
āBut what if something happens?ā
āLike what?ā
āLike⦠I dunno, a new hostile machine appears.ā There havenāt been any in ages. āOr one of those giant trees fall on her.ā Unlikely. āOr the animals go on a rampage and attack.ā
āFor the love ofāsheās a combat model, isnāt she? She can take care of some dumbass machine, not to mention a goddamn tree.ā
āSheesh, you donāt have to be so mad about it.ā
āAnd you donāt have to spend every waking secoāā
āIncoming transmission from YoRHa unit 2B.ā
āWhat?! Put her on!ā
Pod 153 puts the display on, and A2 almost wants to gag. All they do is ask each other if theyāre okay, if things have been alright, how the otherās been. Never mind that theyāre fully aware of each othersā combat capabilities, that thereās almost zero reason for any of them to be worried, and that theyāll all probably be seeing each other again in a few hours. Maybe a day or two, tops, depending on how hard the materials are to find.
Everything about it is ridiculous. When she looks over to 9S as he talks to 2B through their Pods, she scoffs. 9S, as he always does, smiles almost impossibly wide to the screen, but she actually catches 2B smiling back. Small, soft even, but there.
Theyāre happy. Something as simple as this makes them happy.

Hey everyone, so if you donāt know whatās going on: yesterday, footage from Marvelās Black PantherĀ was released showing the romantic f/f relationship between Okoye/Ayo, characters from the comics the movie will be using as inspiration for the story.Ā
(x)
Of course, many fans were overjoyed to hear this, as we have been waiting for lgbt+ representation in MCU for a long time. However, Marvel has since retracted this, and released a statement saying that the relationship between these two women will not be depicted romantically:
This is more than disappointing to many, many people. We were teased with the possibility of representation, only to have it taken away from us. Itās long past the time for Marvel to step up and start telling more diverse stories, and we are tired of waiting.Ā
What can you do to help? Please, please, spare a moment to reach out to Marvel, their producers, representatives, etc etc, on twitter, using the hashtag #LetAyoHaveAGirlfriend. Social media is such an amazing tool and we can use it to make our voices be heard, and maybe make a change. I think itās really important for us to try.Ā
Please take a moment to signal boost this post as well⦠the more awareness spread the better! It would mean the world to myself and so many Marvel fans if we were to have a canon, lgbt female character in the MCU.
