the way i can't stop thinking about mai working out or tinkering with new weapons or training her ki to use without a conduit / weapon, i start going a little feral. let her train with everyone else. let her find joy in a skill she was forced to learn to survive.

[shotgunki]

i'll likely be making changes to mai including my ship rule and a bit of the canon interpretation i have of her, i'll post those as i get to them! just know i'm sort of separating her and making her her own thing at this point, that way i can flesh her out and branch a little further from just dragon ball. i love mai and want to write her more ; -;

[shotgunki]

and if i said i might be here later...

LIFE AND ACTIVITY UPDATE!! <33

i'm all over the place as we all always know and expect from me by now, so first and foremost i apologize!

i got a new job after being in between way too many for way too long. this new job, i'm coaching / assisting my old high school as a fine arts / theater coach! only, it's more than i expected lol. i'll actually be teaching two of three classes i'm coaching (the teacher was my teacher all four years i was there, and they're a huge part of why i graduated and also how i got this job to begin with, so i'm not complaining, and i do owe it to them). big big deal! excited but so scared! lol.

family life has been turbulent, but we climb and we go forward. personal life has just been very busy, but thankfully peaceful enough. my disabilities have gotten mildly worse, but that's expected with age and lack of medication, so i'm doing my best.

right now, my focus and muse has simply shifted to other things, and it happens! i'll be back eventually, but for now i'm letting myself focus on one thing at a time if i can help it, especially with how busy and sacked i'm going to be for a while now.

love you guys so much, and i hope you're all doing well and taking care of yourselves! til next time!

❝ no, don't think. shut up. ❞ ｡° ⸻ @dragvnsovl.

Well. She's not exactly going to argue with Cumber   ( not that it'd do either of them any good ).   Shut up she does, silently sitting a little bit across from him, watching as Scratch purrs and rolls underneath his large petting hands. Scratch was certainly eating it up, turning his little brain off and basking in the consistent affection he was receiving. That alone was mesmerizing enough, really. Mai blinks, eyes lifting from the kitten up to Cumber himself, still observing, but... gentler. Not so much a stare as it was just, perceiving. Sure, most of it could be his sedatives, but he really seemed at ease   ( and Kame knows when the last time she was at ease, let alone just un-tense ).   Maybe he really meant the don't think part.

Mai stays silent, reaching out instead of speaking. She drags her fingers along Scratch's fur now, too, leaning a little onto Cumber's knee to keep her balance.

❝ hey, what are you doing up? ❞ ｡° ⸻ @dragvnsovl.

Mai turns   ( a little too quick )   at the sound of Piccolo's voice, pausing as her eyes seem to take focus. A bat of her lashes and she settles, the hardness in her expression dissipating fast.

       ❝ Piccolo.. ❞   She really was in a daze. Dissociated may have been more accurate, anchored back down once he spoke to her.   ❝ Sorry, did I wake you? ❞

As if she had many any noise when she'd gotten up herself. No, she was awfully quiet, slipping out onto the pavillion to get some air. What was she doing up? Could restlessness even come close to explaining what kept her up? It felt like too much to say she couldn't take another night of terror-filled visions in her sleep. Felt like too much to mention the soreness in her body that made it hard to even relax, let alone settle for bed. No, it was a lot easier to think of an excuse, to stay quiet. She moves her gaze back at the spot in the sky she'd been watching, distant and vacant, before shrugging a little at her shoulders.

       ❝ Couldn't sleep.  Just..   needed some air. ❞

[shotgunki]

❝ well, something killed them. and may still be out there. ❞ ｡° ⸻ @dragvnsovl.

Jaw clenched, teeth grinding, Mai has to set her resolve, pick herself up away from her grief for the time being. Piccolo was right. Whatever killed these people was still out there. As strong as she and Piccolo were, they couldn't take chances with their guard let down. Standing back up, she sets her shotgun against her shoulder, stance even as she nods to follow along beside him.

       ❝ Their wounds are still fresh..   It can't have gone far.. ❞   With any luck, they were just dealing with wild beasts, something the others weren't prepared for. With their record of luck, it was going to be something neither wanted to deal with even on a good day.

A twig snap and immediately Mai spins around to the sound, high alert.

       ❝ Piccolo..   are you able to sense anything? ❞

The Originals — Season 1  {Sentence Starters}

“You’re frightened… don’t be.“

“I forgot how much I liked this town.”

“What an entirely unwelcome surprise.“

“What makes you think I’m afraid to die?“

“No one hurts my family and lives. No one.“

“If you’re going to kill me, then get on with it.“

“Is there anyone who isn’t plotting your downfall?“

“You will not believe the crap day that I’m having.“

“Oh, don’t be fooled, love. I’m the devil in disguise.“

“You do not want to end up on the wrong side of me.“

“I will always protect you. You have my word on that.“

“There has to be another way. This is not how it ends.“

“Well, something killed them. And may still be out there.“

“You started it, but then you left. Actually, you ran from it.“

“They die. Mercy is for the weak. You taught me that, too.“

“If there’s a war going on, I want to be on the winning side.“

“The world is an awful place. Best to meet it on its own terms.“

“I’ll either stop them, or I’ll help them. Depending on my mood.“

“I’d have greater chance of draining the Mississippi with a straw.“

“I don’t mean you any harm. Though I think it’s time we had a talk.“

“One survivor to another, all I want to do is keep you alive. I swear.“

“What’s mine is yours, but it is mine. My home, my family, my rules.“

“Oh, I still think you’re a bitch… I’ve just grown to like that about you.“

“Forgive me. Thought you were in danger. It appears I was mistaken.“

“You don’t suppose they’ve found a way to kill him once and for all, do you?“

“I want a home. I want a family. I want someone to love me, and I want to live.“

“I weighed the good I see in you versus the horrible things I know you’ve done.“

“You know, I never much thought about dying. One of the perks of being immortal, I guess.“

“Here’s a lesson in friendship. Friends don’t lie to me. They don’t break the rules. And they do not steal what is mine!”

“Well, only this morning I had a mystical dagger embedded in my chest. So, I’d say I’m holding myself together quite well.“

Forever — The Ecstasy of Agony  {Sentence Starters}

“Be gentle…”

“That was a joke.”

“You were happy?”

“It wasn’t about sex.”

“No, don’t think. Shut up.”

“I don’t mind a challenge.”

“Pain can be quite liberating.”

“Hey, what are you doing up?”

“No, I’m fine. Please, continue.”

“I never meant to do this to you.”

“At my age? I should be so lucky.”

“You said you wanted to die fast?”

“Noooo, you don’t have to do that.”

“I’m a hard case. Too much history.”

“Wherever he is, I’m sure he’s fine.”

“You’re not coming with me, are you?”

“Next time’s what you said last time…”

“Sorry, this is a lot to process at once.”

“I have ways of loosening your tongue.”

“Perhaps he trusted the wrong person.”

“Well that depends on why you’re here.”

“I want to enjoy every last minute of this.”

“But, somebody did hurt you, didn’t they?”

“I suppose I’m afraid to relinquish control.”

“What was she giving him that I couldn’t?”

“It’s a fine line between pleasure and pain.”

“My job is to help people unlock their pain.”

“Well, you live long enough… anything’s possible.”

“He wasn’t even my type. I prefer the lone wolves.”

“Perhaps this might be a good time to release me?”

“But, what if feeling nothing is the worst pain of all?”

“Make it quick. Best to get it over with, don’t you think?”

“Killing me won’t ease the pain. It’ll only make it worse.”

“Now you know what it feels like to be us. To be mortal.”

“A little dancing, a little drinking… a little what-have.you.”

“Come on, you see  e v e r y t h i n g  and you don’t see that?”

“I’m going to make you hurt like you have never hurt in your life.”

“First, you will beg me to stop… and then you will beg me not to.”

“Any evidence that was left got washed away with last night’s rain.”

“Come away with me. Let’s do all the crazy things we talked about.”

“Everybody, even the greatest of all time, pooched it once in a while.”

“I’ve always been on the receiving end. But, it’s fun inflicting pain, too.”

“A face that broke a thousand hearts. And a bosom that defies gravity.”

“Well, don’t change too much, okay? I kind of like you just how you are.”

“We’re not a couple of dumb kids anymore. We’ve learned from our mistakes.”

“I was in the neighborhood and I wanted to talk to you about erotic electrocution.”

“The people we love the most are the ones capable of hurting us the most deeply.”

“She makes me feel alive… which is ironic, given the number of times she’s tried to kill me.”

“I know what it is to be alone, to have be betrayed by the one person you thought you could trust.”

“Its ironic, isn’t it? That the only way to feel alive… is to give another person the power to destroy you.”

“It’s strange that the things we do for a thrill, in order to make ourselves feel alive, are the same things that may kill us.”

Doctor Who — Turn Left  {Sentence Starters}

“You think I’m so useless.“

“I am going to kill that man!“

“I’m happy right now, thanks.“

“Yes, you are. You’re brilliant.“

“I was like you. I used to be you.”

“Yeah. Well, they haven’t met me.”

“We’re just no one… We don’t exist.”

“To be honest, I’ve given up on you.“

“Don’t be so daft. I’m nothing special.“

“What is it? What… what’s on my back?“

“He’s dead. I’m sorry… did you know him?“

“Oh, don’t. Just don’t. I’m tired. I’m so tired.“

“Where are you going? You’ll get yourself killed!“

“What am I supposed to do? I’m nothing special.”

“Oh, don’t tell me you’re getting all spooky again.“

“I’m going left. If you don’t like it, get out and walk.“

“I reckon we deserve this. It’s been a hell of a year.“

“Oh, I was just passing by. I shouldn’t even be here.“

“Don’t you want to know if you’re going to be happy?“

“The most remarkable man. How did you meet him?“

“You know, we’d get a bit of cash if we sold this thing.“

“If I change things, I don’t die. That’s that’s right, isn’t it?”

“You’re the most important woman in the whole of creation.”

“Stop it. I don’t know what you’re talking about. Leave me alone!“

“What is it? What’s there? Did someone put something on my back?”

“Hey, that’s the second round of drinks you’ve bought. It was my turn.“

“What happened? What did they find? I’m sorry, did they find someone?“

“Your life could have gone one way or the other. What made you decide?”

“You don’t have to make a scene. Just come downstairs and we can have a little talk.“

“Sweetheart, come on. You’re not going to make the world any better by shouting at it.“
