2021. he would have expected flying cars by then. how much history had happened since 1918 ? 1984 ? how much had technology progressed ? he was both anxious and excited to figure those questions out; anxious because he couldn’t tell how long he was going to remain in the land of the living, but excited to experience them all with diana. “ you couldn’t fail me, diana. i’m just sorry you’ve had to spend all these years alone. “ he wanted her to be happy, and knowing that for over a hundred years she had closed her heart off to the world was upsetting. he didn’t want her to spend the rest of her life waiting for her dead boyfriend to come back, but on the other hand, he was sort of glad that she hadn’t moved on, gotten married, and started a family of her own. maybe it was selfish of him, but he was glad that they would always be each other’s and nobody else’s. “ i know it doesn’t sound very promising, but i promise to spend the rest of my time here with you by my side, however long that lasts. “ he was curious as to what friends she had made in the thirty-seven years since their last reunion, but he knew they must be some hell of a group if diana was hanging around with them.

even now , the goddess felt as though she could not remove her gaze from him . her heart feeling like it was confined in her chest , being pushed to it’s peak -- but she knew this feeling . it was of shock , of excitement. “ had you asked anything else of me , i would have done all that i could but it is one thing that i will never be able to do . “ thumb graving over his jawline , a flicker of a smile had graced her face , wishing more than anything that she could simply freeze this moment nd live in it . a wish that often was brought upon when she reminisced over her moments with steve . “ it will be longer this time , eternity if i hold any bearing on it . “ even at the approaching footsteps , diana refused to move -- her embrace on him still tightly wound . a swirl of dust seemed to form an almost tornado-like form , clearly speeding around them before joining the group , who now stood just a few meters from them . a voice had broken the tension , of victor , calling out to ask if there was any danger present . the princess’ smile had allowed a laugh , her head turning to face them . “ no , no . it’s steve . “

how does one begin to explain the sensation of being dead for nearly a century and then suddenly granted life again ? every joint in steve’s body ached from neglect, and though he couldn’t explain how or why he was standing in the middle of a crater with the love of his life, he wasn’t going to complain – not even for one second. he reciprocated her kiss, eager to convince them both that this was real, and that he wasn’t going to disappear this time ( he hoped ). despite feeling bent out of shape, he was glad to be back in his own body this time, rather than having to live someone else’s life for them. he cupped her cheek in his hand as he pulled away to catch his breath, voice hoarse from the smoke in his lungs. “ what year is it now, diana ? how long has it been since last time ? “

diana clutches to him as if he were to be taken from her , her grip easily almost damaging but she persists . “ 2021 . thirty-seven years , this year . “ her fingers are still knotted in his hair , her armored chest plate pressed against steve’s jacket . the ground felt as though it had erupted , though diana knew the familiarity of it -- the gleaming object that had shot over them past the clouds -- clark . it meant they were close . “ i failed you . “ her voice is flat , the tears still evident on her tanned cheeks . “ i could not love again , i simply could not .  you will soon meet my friends -- who i do love , though it may be one hundred , or thirty-seven or one thousand years to pass . there is no one i desire to love like this again ,  and i must let you know this , as i never know when our time is up . “ in reality , diana had no tried to , it was obvious to her that her heart could not love another as it did steve . “ it never gets easier -- my heart still aches at the very thought of you . it hurts to know that our time is so limited when i have wanted nothing more than to have your heart forever . “

Is this what people do when there are no wars to fight? Yeah… this, and other things. What things? Um, they have breakfast. They love their breakfast. And, um, they love to wake up and read the paper and go to work, they get married, make some babies, grow old together. I guess. Wonder Woman 1984 (2020) dir. Patty Jenkins

the softened look that melted onto diana’s features furthered his confusion ; she looked both relieved and defeated at the sight of him. “ as far as i can tell, this isn’t a trick. and if it is, i’m pissed as hell, too. “ it couldn’t be possible that he’d somehow come back to life AGAIN, but the instant her hands met his cheeks, he noticed the warmth they radiated, meaning this couldn’t be some sort of dream or apparition. steve could vaguely remember the dark place he’d come from – it felt similar to when he had woken up in 1984. “ all i remember is darkness, and then … boom. a flash of light. then you found me. “ he struggled to pull himself up from the ground, but once he was firm on his own two feet, he didn’t hesitate in pulling diana towards him and into his arms. “ i don’t know how the hell i’m here, but i’m not complaining. “ she definitely felt real in his arms.

her eyes had taken note of the uniform , the same one worn when he had entered the plane — making entire sense as to how his soul had been what travelled those many years ago . through tears she allows him to break free from her , a heaved sob shaking itself outward as she’s pulled into steve’s arms . a hand rests at the back of his neck , aware that nearly any moment now , the league would have grown concerned over her lack of returning and come to search for her . but her worries of such things were ignored , steve was here — breathing , and entirely alive . even through the cloud of heartache that was so often fuelled by these moments , diana had a smile that completely over took her entire face . brown eyes remaining fixated on the features of the man , truly showing the haze of disbelief that was leaving her in a trance . it felt as though the entire surrounding area had melted away , however , their time had always been limited and there was no way she was allowing any valuable time together to slip away as it always seemed to . with this in mind , the goddess had leaned in , tear-stained lips pressing to his . overwhelmed by the familiar scent — and taste which only encouraged her to pull the man even closer .

when he came to, the first thing he noticed was the taste of smoke and ash on his tongue. an uncomfortable weight pressing into his chest only seemed to be relieved by a coughing fit, which seemingly alerted the fellow survivor he soon heard approaching him. eyes squinting amongst the remainder of the rubble, steve was fully prepared to attempt to explain himself to the stranger – that is, until the voice belonging to them sent him back to a past life. “ diana ? “ eyes peered up into the eyes of the woman, though the relief in his expression quickly turned into confusion. his last memory had been her renouncing her wish – the wish that brought his conscience back to life – and judging by the state of the city surrounding them, things weren’t any better than they’d been when max lord was causing mayhem across the globe. “ what – what happened ? you renounced your wish – how am i here ? “

it felt as though a surge had RUPTURED through the woman’s body , staring completely straight-faced as her eyes landed on the pair of familiar blue . her dreams had often strayed in this way , steve’s appearances had soon shifted from relieving to heartbreaking -- and she prepared herself for this . for the man to fade away into the smoke -- silently . instead , diana is alerted by his speech , emotions clearly commanding his tone . diana had dropped to her knees , golden-plated armor crashing against the barren rubble . “ i don’t know . it’s been .. years since then -- i don’t know how you’re here . “ hands had reached for him , the heat from his body at her fingertips had caused her hands to tingle . “ if this is a trick , i ask so badly for it to end . i cannot bear this again . i cannot say goodbye again . “ diana had leaned over steve , her hands firmly placed on either side of his face as her nose pressed to his temple . his hair smelled of ash -- of burning , her tears mixing with the dirt that had settled itself on the light areas of his hair .

the rupture that seemed to explode across the sky had shattered every nearby window , leaving a cloud of glass to raining down upon the empty streets . the sky was filled with smoke and flames that flickered across the horizon , diana had volunteered herself to the ground-zero of the explosion , attempting to scavenge any debris that could highlight the caused of the blast . what appeared was nothing -- a dark carter that was roughly the size of a football field that had cleared every building and plant life . her eyes had detected nothing -- until the body of a man -- just one hundred feet ahead . she had approached it to mourn -- but instead was greeted by the sound of coughing . she had dropped to the man’s side , turning him over to assist with his breathing -- when the goddess froze . “ s -- steve ? “ @cptntrevors​

a voice made him freeze, of course he realized it was diana’s. though, it couldn’t be her - it wasn’t possible. aware that he was dead, she wasn’t.. she should be alive, at least. she was, wasn’t she? mind so occupied by everything, too occupied to realize that the face hovering above him was hers. too occupied to realize that he was breathing, that his heart was beating - he was alright. though, alright would be different. alright would be different than this, but being dead was too. ‘ the island? ’ not a clue as to what she was all about, still on the island? what island was she talking about? ‘ themyscira? ’ though that would make sense, maybe he went back in time - though that didn’t sound right. ‘ i don’t know, but this island really isn’t nearly as pretty as themyscira.. ’ slowly he sat back up, groaning loudly as that simple movement seemed to hurt him tons. ‘ diana.. i died. i definitely died. i am dead.. this isn’t real.. make it stop, ’ irregularly breathing as he tried to get up, before deciding that it was the best to keep himself seated. ’ my body hurts.. death doesn’t hurt, right? ‘ 

with SHAKY hands, diana kept them on steve’s face, in COMPLETE disbelief that he was here once more with her. even in the midst of this heart-wrenching moment, diana released a tense chuckle. “no-- not themyscira. it is far prettier than this island.” she moved back as steve sat up, remaining on her knees so she was still level with him. “i thought i had lost you AGAIN.” she breathed, eyes rapidly traveling over him to CONFIRM that this really was steve trevor and not simply a figment of her imagination. could it really be him? or was the island playing tricks? something that diana wouldn’t put past at this point, there were always unexplained things happening.“you promised i’d never lose you again-- but yet i did.”

@wcndcrwcman

angels didn’t exist, did they? of course they didn’t. maybe though, maybe that was part of heaven. however, he doubted it. was he supposed to go to heaven after all he did? were his last deeds enough to have him end up here? blinking, the silhouette was beautiful.. almost angel like. it reminded him of diana. diana. heart rushing even faster now, before for the first time - he cried. body aching, coughing loudly as his vision was blurry. was diana alright? how were things, now he was gone? ‘ diana.. ’ he breathed out, hopelessly. of course he knew that she couldn’t hear him, but she was the only thing on his mind. ‘ diana.. ’ he repeated, voice trembling just as much as his body currently. feeling like a dead man, which was ironic for someone who just died in a plane.. yet it felt worse as he expected. ‘ excuse me.. excuse me, angel!? ’ for he didn’t know their name, he just went ahead and call them an angel. ‘ oh my god.. where are we? what is this? ’

having knelt before the man, diana remained hovering over him-- attempting to access any underlying INJURIES. her eyelashes were rimmed with tears, having fallen for the past several minutes after she had recognized the man, the pit in her stomach hardened painfully as she watched over him. diana had BELIEVED steve to be dead-- for weeks she had been LEFT aching of the pain of losing him once more. even now-- she had checked for a pulse first, still TRULY believing that the man she had once loved was dead. her fingers remained on his neck, holding them against the pulsating skin as she continued to PROVE to herself that he was still breathing. she would NOT lost him again. the sound of her own name send a chill throughout her spine, especially with the VOICE that she could not ever mistake. “steve? oh my goodness, steve.” her hands now moved to his face, only delicately cupping his jaw as she EXHALED a sigh of relief. “the island-- we’re still on the island.”

[wcndcrwcman]

    “ okay,  LISTEN——   i have asked pretty much everyone here to give me some directions,  and even though i find it incredibly HARD to believe we’re talking about an alternate universe here, or parallel realities, or whatever,  i’m starting to get highly uncomfortable with the whole  ‘there’s no way out’  thing.   it’s EARTHLY IMPOSSIBLE to not have a way out   ;   if you came in, there’s gotta be a way to get out——  it doesn’t take a genius to know that. ”

with this woman’s apparently hostile tone, diana rubbed her arm, unaware of how she would word this. “there is no way out. we’ve attempted flight-- by boat-- everything. there is truly no way off this island-- YET.”

[wcndcrwcman]

Run…Keep running. That’s what she had to do, keep running, keep the spells firing out from her wand, don’t let them catch you, if they do, they’ll kill you or worse.

The words echoed through Hermione’s mind as she crawled out from the water, gagging for air, she’d tried to jump, but this was the only land. Her arms throbbing with pain, the word mudblood still scarred on, her head pounded, she had to run, she couldn’t let the snatchers come.

Wand pointed out, concern and slight fear tinging her body, this town was so unfamiliar, had she accidentally apparated, would she be safe here? The young witch only hoped so. She’d usually be wiser than holding her wand out in a public area but this place screamed of magic,she felt as if it were like Hogsmeade, she could keep her wand out.

“I’m not afraid to use this…Just tell me where we are. And where your allegiance lies” She half demanded, a confident and assertive tone from the girl, though nerve wracked her tone.

with the wand pointed towards her-- diana had made the ASSUMPTION that this woman truly had more power than it looked. with a defensive position, diana held her ground. “i do not mean you any harm.” she explained, pointing down to her armor. “i am wonder woman.”

thcdreadless :

God was she back in Hell’s Kitchen? What was with the whole stepping out of the shadows thing everyone seemed to be doing lately? “Oh. Sorry, I’ll try not to step on your toes.” Her eyes widened slightly before they rolled, Jessica glancing upwards. “Take on the role of town vigilante by all means, I much prefer the femme fatale role anyway.” 

VIGILANTE? with a stern glance, diana pulled out her badge and faced it in the woman’s direction. “i work for law enforcement-- i don’t take it into my own hands. at least-- not anymore. have you just ARRIVED here?”

[wcndcrwcman]

hvrdtimes :

she nodded ‘ mhm. he’s usually very clean but i didn’t realise it had spilled off my food.’  she explained.

with a WARM smile, diana continued to ask questions, expressing her interest in the woman. she reminded her a lot of STARFIRE-- a certain innocence was within her. “do you have any other stuffed animals or just him?”
