“At least your style for doing things is...Interesting among other words.”

None of the other words would necessarily be bad ones either, interesting just happened to be the first word that came to mind when she spoke. Speaking before thinking was a natural talent of hers anyway, often not giving real thought of what she spoke until it was out in the open and a conversation was started.

“I should clarify that I don’t mean that in a bad way of any sort either. Interesting is far better then being boring, in my opinion.”

Figured it was probably best to add that onto the sentence in case the first part sounded insulting, though nothing about her own posture would give any indication that she was trying to offend or start a fight of any kind. It was a moment of pure curiosity.

“You have the kind of chaotic energy one strives for and you do it so effortlessly. Admirable. How do you manage?”

{Finally here for the day.

I wanna take this time to point out that since they days are getting up to 35 degrees in heat, I am dead during the days. I can’t function. I don’t understand how you guys do it.

So I am here during nights only for while the heat wave is active!}

“Swear to me… swear to me that everything you said is true.” - from Estela !!!

@wrciteoff | the last of us … sentence starters

Shock was the first thing that rushed to the front of all the emotions that she was feeling. Shock over that Estela would ever accuse her of something as small as lying to her.

"What reason would I ever have to lie to you about anything?"

Not telling the full extent of injuries? That might have happened every now and then. Mostly to not worry the other woman. Not telling what had really happened on a mission she was on, in fear of causing more harm towards Estela, and things she didn't want her to picture in terms of murder and such?

Yes that had happened to. But those were not lies, those were just holding back information that was not vital.

Actually telling a lie? Or several? That had never happened.

"I have no reason what so ever to lie about anything to you. You are one of the very few people on this earth that I trust. You are one of the even fewer people that I love with my whole heart, mind and soul. Any question you ask, I would answer honestly. Why do you doubt me now?"

Shock passed over and instead was replace by hurt.

“Pffft, that’s stupid.“

“Man, you hit hard.“

“Endure and survive.”

“None of that is on you.“

“Okay, don’t be a dick…“

“You’d just come after her.”

“Holy shit. We actually made it.“

“There is no other choice here.“

“You have no idea what loss is.“

“You listen to me, you little shit…“

“I’m scared of ending up alone…”

“Come on. Make this easy for me.“

“Yeah, well, I was trying to kill you.“

“I shot the hell out of that guy, huh?“

“How is it that you’re never scared?“

“I’m scared of that happening to me.“

“But, man… you can’t deny that view.”

“They’ve been gone a long, long time.“

“We’re not murderers. We just survive.“

“I will not turn into one of those things.“

“Well, is that everything you hoped for?“

“It’s called luck. And it is gonna run out.”

“Our luck had to run out sooner or later.“

“I could give two shits what you’re up to.“

“What are we doing here? This is not us.“

“I struggled for a long time with surviving.”

“They sacrifice the few to save the many.“

“Do I need to remind you what is out there?“

“I’m just saying, I’m glad you’re on my side.“

“Just take it easy. Drugs are still wearing off.“

“Yeah, you keep telling yourself that bullshit.“

“You see? Everything happens for a reason.“

“I’m not going anywhere. This is my last stop.“

“You’re treading on some mighty thin ice here.“

“Yeah, well, just try not to let your guard down.“

“That was plan A, B, C, all the way to fucking Z!”

“You’re gonna be really happy you didn’t kill me.“

“(Name) saw the world one way, I saw the other.“

“I’m sure your ‘friend’ will be missing this tonight.“

“Why didn’t you just hang back like I told you to?“

“Still trying to save the world? Good luck with that.“

“I pretty much lost everything. And then you show up.”

“I’m so tired. I’m exhausted and I just want this to end.”

“Hold your horses, I wanna see what the fuss is about.“

“No matter what, you keep finding something to fight for.“

“Ssh, ssh! It’s okay! It’s me, it’s me! Look, look… it’s me.“

“Hearing them talk, it’s good to know they’re scared of you.“

“Well, I guess we’re both disappointed with each other then.“

“Swear to me… swear to me that everything you said is true.”

“Y'know, we can be all poetic and just lose our minds together.“

“I’m getting you outta here, girl. I got you… I got you. Come on.”

“I guess no matter how hard you try, you can’t escape your past.“

“Now, I know that’s not what you want to hear right now, but it’s — “

“Guess what, we’re shitty people. It’s been that way for a long time.”

“And just so we’re clear about back there… It was either him or me.“

“You wanna know the best thing about my job? I don’t gotta know why.“

“You’re right. You’re not my daughter… and I sure as hell ain’t your dad.”

“Running off like that, putting yourself at risk… it’s pretty goddamn stupid.”

“And in this world, that sort of shit’s good for one thing… getting you killed.“

“Okay, first of all, we’re a team now, okay? We’re gonna help each other out.“

“Listen to me, if I get in trouble down there, you make every shot count. Yeah?”

“Whoa! How the…? How the hell would you even walk around with that thing?“

“After all we’ve been through, everything that I’ve done… It can’t be for nothing.”

“So you know what I did? I wisened the fuck up. And I realized it’s gotta be just me.“

“I can’t imagine losing someone you love like that. Losing everything that you know.“

“Everyone I have cared for has either died, or left me. Everyone — fucking except for you!“

“You know, as bad as those things are, at least they’re predictable. It’s the normal people that scare me.“

“I get it. But, whatever it is you think you’re going through right now is nothing to what I have been through.“

“Really? Just gonna leave me hanging? All right. I see how it is. It’s just a high-five. It takes like 5 seconds.”

“Is this really all they had to worry about? Boys, movies… deciding which shirt goes with which skirt? It’s bizarre.“

“You know what? No. How about ‘Hey, I know it wasn’t easy, but it was either him or me, thanks for saving my ass.’ You got anything like that for me?”

“Everyone I have cared for has either died, or left me. Everyone — fucking except for you! So don’t tell me I would be safer with somebody else, because the truth is, I would just be more scared.”

{Please tell me there is someone more then me on here who is super excited for Eiyuden Chronicles.

Please tell me there is someone else who remembers the feeling of playing through the Suikoden games for the first times, the absolute amazing and powerful stories from those game. The feelings, the music, the scenes.

Please tell me someone more then me actually cried watching that trailer because after so many years of waiting and thinking nothing will ever come again like that, there is now a spiritual successor being made, and it actually looks good and worth it.

I have never in my 27 years of gaming cried like that over a announcement trailer before.}

{I want to give a heads up that we currently have a heat wave here right now, and I as a Swedish person, do not know how to handle heat.

So I can't sleep at night and spend my days with a horrible headache and falling asleep at my desk.

This is horrible. Plz send help}

@xviperinae​ continued from HERE

He’d heard of her before now, a short stuff assassin capable of felling even the most awful foes. She’s made somewhat of a name for herself in the underground world, the black market never short on hitmen (and women) but most certainly short on good ones. It isn’t that Kano can’t do any jobs himself - no - it’s that he’s a busy man and well…

he can never simply walk away from a pretty face. 

“Well if war can’t convince ye, what would y’say to a generous sum o’money?” He’s returning the look with a cocked brow and pull of his lips - Kano makes no secret of his interest in her. “I hear yer a woman who can be bought.”

Everybody has a price after all and Kano just happens to speak fluent money. 

“I’d say that money if probably less then I care about in any case.”

There was no hesitation in the answer, money having been something that spoke to her in the past, but now days it was something she had enough of as it was. Sure more money was never a bad thing, but not needing it also brought a kind of freedom into the playing field.

A small smirk graced her lips, looking at the man in front of her, one hand on her hip and the other very ready to grab back what was hers.

“If you want me to be interested in anything, you gotta make it sound fun, man. What use would I have of it if it does not excite?”

              @xviperinae​  ♥︎ ’ d  for  a  starter  (  doctor  )

“Oh the dangerous path is the one I always take. What fun is life if you don’t throw yourself into the jaws of danger at every turn? Now I am more curious what kind of price is such a large one that people run away from it. Do enlighten me on it, please?”

[xviperinae]

diviinitatis​:

That I can confirm. Nothing better than the solid smack of wood on skull, you know? He grinned, tossing the cane from his right hand to his left. The snake-shaped handle left some hell of a mark too, especially if he hit the person in a way that allowed either the snake’s teeth to make contact, or its tail.

Don’t recommend! It’s not fun at all. Easy enough to get out of if you have money. Everyone lets money talk to them if it’s a high enough amount.

“I mean I can think of a few things more that I would say is better but it is up there among them all as something that is very fun to do. Though I can’t say I have ever hit someone with a cane specifically. Might be something special with that.”

She was always willing to find new ways to smack someone upside the head, so really all that was needed now was to find a cane of some sort that she could try to smack someone with at some point.

Never hurt to try new things.

“I can confirm that. It’s rare that you can find someplace where money does not speak the loudest.” It was a sad fact. One that she did not like even though she did have the money to get out off most things. “Few things speak as well as money.”

❛  I’ll let you drag me to hell if it means you’ll hold my hand.  ❜ ( From Sethos )

@nghread

"That's..."

Mouth opens and closes a few times, not really sure how to respond in the moment of hearing something like that. For one, it was an adorable thing to say and while he might do much better in a place like hell then many others would, that was also not the point.

"I want to say that if someone is dragging you into hell, you should probably let go off their hand, but that would make me a hypocrite, since I know very well that I would do the same."

Loyalty to someone was her biggest thing. Once she was loyal, she was loyal to the depths of hell.

"....Don't do that. If I ever become a thing that is dragging you down, don't let me."

Takes another second before trying to lighten the mood a little.

"Also thank you for plainly stating that I am going to hell."

[xviperinae]

❛ you may not be interested in war, but it is interested in you. ❜ *also, steals hat*

@heartrip

"Of course it is. War is always interested in whatever thing it might see as possible to kick it's ass."

If it was because it would give it a chance to show off in a victory or because the war itself wanted to be over, that much was up for debate. But then again, Viper had seen far too much war in her short lifetime anyway, so the interest from her was very low indeed.

"War can also take that interest and shove it up it's own ass for all I care. War no longer dictates who I fight or why I fight. No one has that power over me." On that front, there was no backing down for her. That freedom would forever be hers. "Now tell me, you who seem so keen on war, why must you disturb me like this? Also touch my hat and I will break every bone in that hand."

He nodded, thinking it was a pity. The original smith likely wouldn’t be able to fix it either, but they could forge something new out of it. He could as well, but…it wouldn’t be the work of the original master after all, it would be a new work of his own.

He looked the weapon over again. ‘I believe I can do something to make it aesthetically similar to what it used to be. A keepsake, if you like,’ he offered.

Her own mood became brighter at once when it was mentioned that he could fix the blade, even if it would not be usable. This blade had seen the battle it needed to see, it had been part of fights and self defense. Viper was sure the original maker was satisfied with what became of the blade.

“Oh that would be wonderful! I honestly did not expect it to be saved to it’s normal state, so just being able to fix it so I can keep it to look at is amazing!”

Every blade or weapon she owned had a special place in her heart, so just being able to keep it in a case would be enough for her.
