❛  I like my women like I like my Absinthe: bitter and intoxicating.  ❜

❛  what doesn’t kill me better run.  ❜

❛  she wasn’t looking for a knight. she was looking for a sword.  ❜

❛  don’t dehumanize bad people, because it’s their humanity which makes what they’ve done so terrifying.  ❜

❛  she isn’t just pretty. she is otherworldly and vaguely threatening.  ❜

❛  magic is not good or evil. is a knife evil? only if the wielder is.  ❜

❛  I don’t want your crown. see, I’ve come to burn your kingdom down.  ❜

❛  they broke my wings. they forgot I have claws.  ❜

❛  all that blood was never beautiful, it was just red.  ❜

❛  what do you do when there’s no hero in the story? simple. you kill the monster and crown yourself.  ❜

❛  how terrible it is, to love something that death can touch.  ❜

❛  you may not be interested in war, but it is interested in you.  ❜

❛  I feel divinity in my bones like aching. like fire.  ❜

❛  you make me feel and I don’t like it. I want it to stop. now.  ❜

❛  you are losing my interest and that is very dangerous.  ❜

❛  it’s okay to be scared. it means your about to do something brave.  ❜

❛  she looks like divine absolution.  ❜

❛  I will not be another flower, picked for my beauty and left to die. I will be wild, difficult to find and impossible to forget.  ❜

❛  be careful with words. they can be forgive, but never forgotten.  ❜

❛  they will kill you, but first they will have to catch you.  ❜

❛  drugs might kill you but they’ll never break your heart.  ❜

❛  good girls are just bad girls that haven’t been caught.  ❜

❛  no airbag, we die like men.  ❜

❛  true evil is, above all, seductive.  ❜

❛  it takes more courage to suffer than to die.  ❜

With a sort of whine similar to Trigger’s, Angela made a grab for the bowl of noodles. “It is food, Jack. It may be food that’s not very good for you but it’s food none the less. Now give it back I’m hungry.” Between running around trying to get supplies for the watchpoint and taking care of various injuries from the mission some of them went on this morning, she had yet to have anything to eat.

He remained unfazed, using his unfair height advantage to effectively hold it out of her reach. "It's garbage, it's especially garbage when you insist on eating it as often as you do. Other things than cup of soup exist, Angela. Shocking, I know. I'll give you a minute to process it while I throw this away and we make you something better."

        hey there ya’ll give this a like for some banter as i try to kick my ass into gear on here

@wundertater

“This,” Jack scolded as he reached to take the still cooling noodles from the table before Angela could snatch them up herself, “is not food. Not when it’s the only thing you’ve eaten today,i”

“Jack, I’m not asking you to operate without the mask. I’m asking you to be sensible. Meaning when we’re doing menial things, it would probably be best if you didn’t wear it. Leave your cover at home —a midnight walk isn’t the battlefield. I understand you want to be safe, but it isn’t just you anymore.”

The words made his scars itch, his awareness of them flaring up like fire across his face. Jack was sensible, or he tried to be. He knew when not to wear the mask, for the most part. But any time other than operations was deemed unnecessary by Reinhardt. As if it were a uniform only allowed under certain conditions. Jack scowled at nothing in particular. He was being unfair and there was a point to be had from the other man. "It makes me feel better." A weak defense, but it's all the reasoning he had to offer. A simple and petty answer that bouiled down to insecure vanity.

[warpledged-blog]

gives him a cup of tea.

Ana's base of operations was lived in and comfortable. He liked it more than his hovel. It reminded him of life and existence and a presence that was very real. When he wasn't sulking on his own he was there, hunched over the work bench fiddling with something. Didn't matter what. Now it was his visor. A piece of it had been knocked loose after a good whack to his head and it'd been driving him up the wall for some days now. Mostly it was an excuse for himself, something to drive him out of the pathetic excuse of a room he'd made for himself. Too many shadows in the corners that made it hard to focus.

They hadn't exchanged pleasantries, but this time it was unnecessary. Sometimes they just knew what the other needed. Usually it was the sound of someone else breathing in the dark, the reminder they weren't alone. Right now the tea was a good start, even if he wished he had something stronger he could have poured into it. For once he let it cool enough it wouldn't scorch his taste buds off entirely. It felt good against his throat, sweetened with honey.

"Thanks."

“Stubborn as a mule,” he mutters, a sigh escaping —he doesn’t give up his point, but it doesn’t make it any less infuriating how the soldier insisted on fighting, refusing seeing eye to eye with him. “You might as well be —someone’s going to see it one way or another. It doesn’t matter how many. It only takes the right eye.”

"You're one to talk." It's always been like this with them when it came to matters of disagreement. Two men with their own points that they had to prove. Sometimes one was wrong, sometimes the other; sometimes they both were and it took a stern word from an outside party to settle their dispute. Didn't have that now. "I'll burn that bridge when I get to it." His visor flickered. 

"You can't really expect me to go do the shit I do without the mask on. That'd be asking for even more trouble." After all, when did he ever get out to do anything else?

[warpledged-blog]

honorpledged:

“It’s just as obvious ! People may not recognize you as you were, but they’re going to recognize the vigilante you have become with that mask on. I want you to know you it’s obvious.” Perhaps overdramatic, yes, but the symbol the mask has become is that of a criminal. Be it ridiculous, but he desires the greatest safety of his companion —may that be at the expense of a rather forward display.

"It's not like I'm parading myself down the streets in broad daylight." There was a point to be had. This mask was a symbol now and not a positive one. Connected to the string of crimes attached to this new identity he had forged for himself. "I know what I'm doing when I wear it I KNOW the risks attached to it. I'd like it if you took the time to understand instead of trying to deliver some tough love because you don't like it."

“Better than you keeping a full head of hair. Is that a bald spot I see?” 

"No, it isn't. My hair is perfectly intact, and even if it wasn't hair loss is both a natural occurrence AND an indicator of stress so I'm real surprised I'm not bald entirely with all the shit I put up."

[warpledged-blog]

honorpledged:

“I wanted to show you how obvious it looks when you insist on wearing that mask everywhere.” It’s certainly one hell of an overkill, but it drives him insane —Jack’s insistence on the mask began with a justified paranoia, unto a minor annoyance when it came to minimal ventures by themselves. It drew more attention than not.

"You're taking an extreme measure to prove an insignificant point." He didn't sound angry, just irritated. Heads had butt on this issue time and time again, but this was by far the most dramatic Reinhardt had been about it. "A mask is one thing, an entire suit of armor is another."

“This doesn’t look suspicious at all.” Just a man in a mask and a man in armor taking a little stroll. Nope. Definitely not suspicious.

de-los-muertos:

“At least until your hip goes out, old man. I’m surprised you’re still running around like you are.”

“A little thing like age ain’t gonna keep me down. You’re not one to talk, anyways. Pretty sure you started bitching about a bad back way in our thirties.”
