Back bent against the driving snow, Cabal dragged a tarp-covered sledge through the darkness.

(was there a body on that sledge? what are you, a snitch?)

Only the light of his green-glass lantern lights the snowy road.

It's Time

There's something nearly otherworldly about seeing a figure hunched in the pelting snowfall. He--Nina could only assume this was a man, as likely only a man would be so foolish as to tempt fate and test his luck in this storm--seemed decidedly out of place. A black figure of death against the unending white.

Yes. Death. Not only was it increasingly impossible to escape, but it...it called to her. The form bundled on that sledge might as well have been whispering directly in her ear, content to battle the wind for her attention. If she was a smart woman--and Nina considered herself a least that--she would simply walk away. Leave the odd grim figure to his work, whatever that might be.

Unfortunately, her feet had other ideas.

"You'll catch your death, here." Nina called in Fjerdan, then again in Kerch. "Surely your business could wait out the blizzard?"

I’ve got a lot of fun kids to choose from and a few more going into testing, so let’s gooooo

“ there’s certainly more to you than meets the eye, isn’t there? ” — for nina

In the Meme Vault

"Thank you for noticing!" And Nina does seem to be genuinely pleased by the observation. She wasn't immediately certain where it had come from or why, but to be acknowledged at all was good enough for her. Sometimes a lady just needed a little attention to make the day bright.

Still, there were things to do and a job to complete, so she simply kept the smile, refilling his wine dutifully. "Though, I have certainly been told that I have plenty to fill the eye, as well." Punctuated with a wink and absolutely throwing subtlety to the wind.

Frank hadn’t asked for help, and he hadn’t expected it. Sure, he knew Molly cared, that him and her still had a bond from before, and one that was growing again- still, he’d expected to rest a day or two before attempting to bandage himself up. 

Frank barely makes it to the door- the knocking wouldn’t stop, and if he’d been anywhere but his secret hiding space he might of been able to ignore it. 

Had Molly told him she was sending someone? Things were a little fuzzy, what with the blood loss, and all. Either she was legitimate, or he’d find out soon enough she was sent to do his ending. Frank left the door open behind him before making his way to the small set up he had in the kitchen, sitting at the table. “You dealt with this before?” He speaks, in reference to the shape he’s in. 

Whatever Ellie had been expecting of him, it hadn’t be this. Sure, he was an intimidating guy--couldn’t say anything otherwise--but he hadn’t pulled a weapon. Hadn’t interrogated her or demanded anything of her. He’d only turned away to allow her inside, sitting at the table as though this was just another day. Well, for him, it probably was.

Ellie shut the door behind her, and wandered to meet him, rifling through her bag the moment she’d set it on the table. “Similar situations.” She allowed quietly, and took a steadying breath before she began her examination of him. One wound...another...this was superficial, it could wait...

“W-we don’t...have to talk, I know some people don’t like it. But we could, if it’ll...if it helps being distracted.” She glanced up at him, hazel eyes uncertain. “Some of this is not going to feel very good.” She explained.

@muserender​​  said: “'Greater good?’ I am your wife! I’m the greatest GOOD you are ever gonna get!” CASTLE, MARIA. au. sweet virginia (prelude)

There would always be another tour; another six or so months away for every year he was home. They were approaching the ten-month mark of his being there, and they both knew he was growing itchy. Frank was already signed on for the next round- they both knew this, but it didn’t make it any easier. Yes, he could take the proper steps and back out, but that wasn’t what he wanted. 

He knows that she’s trying to make light of the very real feelings she has about the matter, he knows that she wants him to know it’s his choice. Even knowing who he is, and what he was, it was clear that she rather him by her side, than away risking his life. Frank gets that, even if he isn’t really sure how to be any other way. He loves her, loves the kids- their life. As much as he loves them, this is what felt like the hiatus, not the war. 

“I know you hate it when I’m gone.” Frank speaks quietly; he wasn’t going to tease her back, not about this. “I signed up for this. We both did.” 

He’d already made up his mind, and Maria knew it...even before she’d made the decision to broach the subject with him. She knew what she was asking and knew what he would say, because it wasn’t the first time she’d attempted. It likely wouldn’t be the last. But he was right...she’d signed up for it as much as he had by marrying him, starting a family with him. 

Saying goodbye to him was getting harder and harder each time. She was sharing him with his calling, and if she wasn’t careful, she’d say it was the true love of his life. God, that wasn’t fair. But it was how she felt.

“It feels soon.” Maria explained, matching his tone. Her hand stroked along his arm, the familiarity of the touch as much about soothing herself as it was for him. “It feels as though I’ve just gotten you back, and you’re off again. I know this is what we signed up for, but...Frank, sweetheart...your family needs you, too.”

@muserender​:  ❝ Did you ever meet a pirate? ❞  Johanna asked, leaning back in her seat.  ❝ I’d have loved a pirate, I think. Been a damn decent one myself. ❞  ( Hob ) 

❝ In terms of being in the same room as them? Yeah. Taverns were full of them along the docks. Saw them on the seas too when I was in the trading line of business. ❞ Gaze cast over to Johanna, there’s a feeling of familiarity, though it was impossible that she was the same person, wasn’t it? Not that he could talk about being impossible. ❝ Have we met before? You look familiar. ❞

“Nice try, but the line’s a little overused, love.” While she might not have shrugged physically, it was clear in her tone. She didn’t know this guy from Adam, and wasn’t certain she’d care to. He’s the one that claimed to be from a different time...she was just checking out the story. “Was it anythin’ like that Jack Sparrow arsehole? Bunch of drunk idiots fumbling their way around.”

black swan … sentence starters

“She’s gone!”

“No, no lie down!“

“You know I asked.“

“I just want to be perfect.“

“I think I do have it in me.“

“You need to sleep this off.“

“Sweetie, you need to rest.“

“No! Please! You’re not well!“

“All that discipline… for what?“

“You were scratching all night.“

“I felt it. Perfect. It was perfect.“

“How do you know where I live?“

“You haven’t told me who you are.“

“What happened to my sweet girl?“

“I guess he wanted you all to himself.“

“Do you have any idea what time it is?“

“It’s called privacy, I’m not 12 anymore!“

“I think it’s kind of boring though, isn’t it?“

“Yes, you’re beautiful, fearful, and fragile.”

“Do you really need another controversy?“

“You’re staying in here until you feel better.“

“You could be brilliant, but you’re a coward.“

“Every dancer in the world wants your role.“

“Yeah, it’s okay. I would be losing my mind.“

“Well, we need to be able to talk about this.“

“I can’t believe he calls her that. It’s so gross.“

“No. You know what? It’s just not for everyone.“

“You must be so excited. Are you freaking out?“

“He always said you were such a frigid little girl.”

“He has a reputation. I have a right to be concerned.”

“I don’t want there to be any boundaries between us.“

“Everything will be better in the morning. It always is.“

“A rough start, huh? Must have been pretty humiliating.“

“You’re working yourself too hard. We all have off days.“

“He must have been by your side all night, showing you off.“

“Good. I just don’t want you to make the same mistake I did.“

“Perfection is not just about control. It’s also about letting go.“

“Oh my God? Oh my God! You did! You fantasized about me!“

“Sounds like quite an evening. Wish I could have been there.”

“No, this is different. She’s after me. She’s trying to replace me!“

“That was me seducing you. It needs to be the other way around.“

“You don’t need to lie. You won’t convince him one way or the other.“

“So dangerous. Even perfect at times, but also so damn destructive.“

“The only person standing in your way is you. It’s time to let her go. Lose yourself.“

“I just came by to apologize. You’re right, I should have never spoken to him about you.“

“Surprise yourself so you can surprise the audience. Transcendence. Very few have it in them.“

“Now stop saying that! That’s exactly what I’m talking about. Stop being so fucking weak!”

“She walked into the street and got hit by a car. And you know what? I’m almost sure she did it on purpose.”

“Well, he certainly should. You’ve been there long enough and you’re the most dedicated dancer in the company.“

“Look, I just feel really shitty about what I did and I just really want to make it up to you, so how about I take you out to dinner?“

@0nebatch gets a starter from Ellie because I said so

It’s not something she’d expected, getting this kind of call...but then again, maybe she should have. Ellie made her living dealing with the grim and the grisly; not exactly the type to receive a house call solely for some schmuck’s tummy ache. Just once, though, she’d have liked to experienced that. Throw the guy some tums and be on her way.

This one...this one looked bloody. What else did she expect, coming face to face with the Punisher himself?

“Easy.” She raised her hands, the other hand holding what doubled as a medicine bag. “Mutual friend sent me. Sh-she said you’d be expecting me? Something about...about colorful bandaids and lollipops?” That was the code, right?
