Lune being badass

i am off for the weekend ! still have to add two verses for baldurs gate and cyberpunk while also fully explaining chromas and stains as a power set. thanks to everyone for following me over here and have a great weekend.

[obsclair]

tell me, is there a good reason why i just kept you alive?

malice and rage make up the poison in lune's mouth, mixed with the dust and dirt of her near-defeat — she mustn't forget the blood, that sickly iron taste. she spits at the ground she huddles over, driving the heels of her palms into the earth so that she rises with it's stones and pebbles embedded into supple flesh.

" maybe because you like playing with your toys. "

the brief sway as she finds her feet does nothing to embolden lune's stubborn stand but she knows nothing else — lune does not know what it is to admit defeat.

" but i don't pretend to know what goes on in a mind like yours. " lune hastily swipes the back of her hand across her mouth, summoning the chroma within her to bolster one final stand. " i'm not here to play your game so either KILL ME or tell me what you want. "

[obsclair]

it is a tender act of deflection, an attempt a self-flagellation — lune hopes to create a divide between her and @fantombe after realizing how damning gravity had been to them both.

what starts as midnight revelry and the found comradery of the damned becomes ritual, a need ... she is unsettled without verso now, left alone to battle the thoughts that manifest in the darkness of this newfound continent. lune knows that when this world is quiet, and she is alone with the weight of everything she carries, that it is verso's presence that makes it bearable.

she shouldn't let it continue.

" you and sciel seem to be getting along. i'm sure sitting with her would mean some peace and quiet instead of all of my ... questions. " she stares into the fire, inhaling a calming breath before continuing forward with her well-prepared script. " i can ask her if she's interested in — "

lune scowls into the face of the fire, a skewed expression that hides the sudden smile that threatens to emerge 'pon her lips. she is only human, one who still doesn't realize the profound solace of being chosen.

" hmm ... must be complicated then. maybe i can help ? "

[obsclair]

lune is frozen in place as sophie's rose-scented embrace envelopes her — it is a mixture of shock and ineptitude that leaves the other without before lune's arms finally find their way around sophie's tender frame. she doesn't squeeze nearly as hard as the other, such a competition would be fruitless, but lune can feel a certain melting that prompts her to retreat as soon as it's felt.

" i'm glad you're okay, " she professes with a small smile. sophie's eagerness over the gestrals spurns her own and lune can feel the way her cheeks strain from the force of her own smile.

" they're so fascinating ! have you met the small ones ? and then there's esquie — you are going to love esquie. "

｡ꪆৎ ˚⋅ @revelres gets a expedition based starter !

arms wrap around the other's frame , holding tight. instant relief set upon her , tenseness in her muscles fades and knots in stomach become undone. to see lune alive , to know she had made it. hesitantly does she let go , smile painted upon sophie's lips. ❛ i thought . . . it doesn't matter now , i'm just so glad you're here. ❜ a look around the village , that's become a temporary home and refuge. ❛ all the tales about the gestrals , they're mostly real ! ❜ a lighthearted subject , laughter spilling from her lips. ❛ it's really , really good to see you. ❜

[obsclair]

lune smiles at the selfishness of her own folly, of the part of her that finds happiness in just sitting with esquie — it heals a younger version of her that was still ignorant to his existence but hoped for it anyways.

there was a time where lune was hopeful.

she floats down onto the ground, landing with legs crossed and her hands softly cupping the tops of her knee caps.

" verso likes naps, does he ? " it is said midst a laugh, a moment to believe that this place could be protected, that it could last forever. " who is momo ? "

"I would love to sit with you." With very little ceremony or preparation, Esquie would settle down to sit on the ground. His legs sat outstretched from him, careful not to accidentally hit Lune in the process.

"To answer your question: no, I do not need to sleep. But Verso has always been good at getting Momo and me to take naps. Verso loves to take naps. ...I do wonder if Momo takes naps without us. We've not seen him in a while."

PROMPTS FROM LARA CROFT: TOMB RAIDER *  assorted dialogue from the 2001 film, adjust as necessary

i woke up this morning and i just hated everything.

oh... very funny.

to see your world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower. hold infinity in the palm of your hand, an eternity in an hour.

i'm only trying to turn you into a lady.

a lady should be modest.

what's that smell?

you might try to kill me.

i'm not going to kill you.

so... time to save the universe again, then, is it?

it's a clock. it's ticking.

tell me, is there a good reason why i just kept you alive?

i think you're trying to cheat me out of my little ray of sunshine.

why would i try to cheat you out of anything?

i need you to get the piece so i can steal it from you later.

you're bluffing.

was it programmed to stop before it took my head off?

ah, well... that would be a no.

we have 83 rooms.

why can't you just live in the house?

i'm a free spirit.

i don't believe it.

i think it's really cool that you can still keep a day job.

it's obviously just for show.

still pretending to be an archaeologist?

it's not like you ever really owned them or anything.

i think your clients need you.

it's all just a business.

so... go do business.

i suppose you think i'm a greedy, unscrupulous sell-out who'll do just about anything for money?

if you cross me, we may not be able to remain friends.

always a pleasure.

now... for a cold shower.

pretty much touch anything, and you get your head chopped off.

it's my system! so i know where they all came from!

this is where i start to have fun.

into the belly of the beast.

it's wrong.

time was stolen from us, and it's not fair.

really? that's fascinating.

i don't know about you, but i'm not planning to give that much time to this enterprise.

my ignorance amuses me.

i've always found your ignorance quite amusing.

i'll be calling in a favor.

that's a secret.

if i told you, i'd have to kill you.

ah, [name]. how predictable.

what are you doing here?

she taught my men a thing or two about home invasion.

we may even need to hire her.

hello. if you don't mind, i'd like to have a word alone. please.

so, what are you? good guy or bad guy?

your problem is that you can't be trusted.

i'm just trying to get by. have a little fun.

i know what you are.

you should wear this. allow me.

[name] must mean a lot to you.

i had hoped it wasn't necessary. a betrayal...

you know, you worry me.

i can feel your conflict over this.

do you mind if i smoke?

i'm not gonna kill you.

who sits here?
