"No, I haven't actually. Shot at yes, not shot though." Briar admitted as the vines seemed to caress his wounds. They were gentle, an extension of Briar herself of course. She didn't miss how pointed his question was though and she supposed it was fair.

"The animals told me, the plants." She admitted as though that were terribly ordinary. "Not everything of course, they couldn't know too much, but, they knew about your- would you call them powers?"

Elliot rolled his eyes, the sparkle of gold floating around in the forest green of his irises a little more obvious in the dark of the evening. "Nah, I don't think you've ever been shot then- That shit kills, mate. This is just some fucking scratches." He wiggled his fingers to prove the point that he could still do a little, even if his magic forced his hands to stay accessible to her. "What do you know about me? Cos it should be fuck all."

Terrible First Meeting Starters

For breaking the ice in the worst possible way, featuring themes including: kidnapping, murder, stalking, injury, monsters, and just general meanness. [Brackets] indicate spaces to include your own words to personalize your ask!

“Wh-who are you? Where are we? Why are we tied up together?!” “You almost killed me, so no, it’s not nice to meet you.” “Oh my god, are you okay? Should I call an ambulance?” “I wondered when you were going to wake up. You almost didn’t survive.” “Get out of my way before I move you myself.” “Please, let me out of here!” “You’re staring like you’ve never seen a [monster/vampire/demon/etc] before.” “Hey. Pretend you were waiting for me. You’re being followed.” “You don’t know me, but something terrible is going to happen.” “You’re in the wrong place at the wrong time.” “Please, someone help!” “You shouldn’t be out here all by yourself this late at night.” “Stop shining that flashlight on me! I’m not a damn ghost!” “I’m sorry if I hurt you.” “Shh, don’t scream! I’m not trying to attack you!” “I’ve never seen anything like you before.” “Stand right there and don’t get any closer!” “Now that you’ve seen this, I can’t let you leave and just tell anyone.” “Ugh, my head. What happened to us?” “Is there a reason you’ve been following me for an hour?” “If you come near me, I will scream at the top of my lungs.” “Holy shit. What have you done?!” “Is that blood? Is that YOUR blood?” “Don’t panic, I can explain!” “I promise you, this isn’t what it looks like.” “I won’t hurt you if you just keep your mouth shut.” “Who are you? Where are you taking me?!” “This is for your own safety. I’ll explain later.” “What the hell was that thing back there?!” “There’s something wrong with me. I need your help!” “Please, someone, there’s been an emergency!” “You can’t leave. You’re a witness and now you’ve involved.” “I’m being hunted, and now they’ve seen you too.” “If you believe in any god, I suggest praying to them now.” “Shh! Hide here, and don’t move a muscle.” “Can I walk with you? I think I’m being followed.” “I’m so sorry. I don’t like tricking people, but I had to lure you here.” “Fuck off, this is private property!” “I’ve seen some weird shit, but you’re something else.” “Oh my god. Are you a [monster/demon/angel/etc]?” “Don’t look at me like that, with those eyes.” “That isn’t your blood. What did you do?” “I promise not to tell anyone, just let me go!” “Come with me. I want to show you something.” “You’re not going to eat me, are you?” “You should never have approached me. You don’t know who you’re dealing with.” “Go away, I’m not looking for a conversation.” “You don’t just follow people to their homes! I’m calling the police.” “Please, I’ll do anything, just untie me!” “I’m sorry if I scared you.” “I had to tie you up. You didn’t leave me any other choice.” “I don’t even know you. What do you mean, I ‘have’ to go with you?” “We almost died back there. Maybe we should introduce ourselves.” “Let go of me!” “I’m hurt. Please, I need you to call an ambulance for me.” “You have to come with me, something bad is about to happen!” “I’m not leaving until you tell me why you’ve been following me!” “Seeing as we may not survive, I should tell you my name. It’s [name].”

Brief Verse Run Down;

//This will be added to as I think of more verses.

Powered Up (MCU, The Boys);

Briar's powers are centered in and around nature. She can communicate, call and control animals (though she doesn't like the latter part). She always has the ability to create and control plants, vines come from her wrist and can be used in a variety of ways like those we see in nature.

MCU Specific - Briar works at Xaviers School for Gifted Youngsters and is a member of the x-men.

Mythology;

Spies (Bond/Kingsman etc):

Briar is being hunted because of a discovery she made about a new bioweapon that has the potential to be grown rather than man-made.

Star Trek;

AOS/Kelvin Timeline and Original Series - Briar is the head botanist and zoologist aboard the Enterprise with her own small lab that most people are too afraid to venture anywhere near because of the creatures that live there.

"Oh wow, that actually worked didn't it."

"I didn't actually think it would." Briar took his hand and vines started to snake their way out of her wrist, they twisted gently around Elliot's knuckles and produced a soothing salve on the cuts there. "Sometimes it's the small wounds hurt the most. How do you cope with knowing people can-" She tailed off.

"'m fine." Elliot grumbled but the words sent a wave of calm through him and he found his hands going out for her to see the blood starting to dry on his knuckles. "I have had worse." He muttered.

Random general RP prompts, without cursing, requested by anon. Feel free to edit pronouns / etc. to make them more fitting !

“Oh my god, what is that !?”

“You should have seen them. I could hardly breathe with their ego taking up all the space in the room.”

“Hey, hey, stop. I literally have no idea of what you're talking about. How about you start from the beginning? Or at least put a subject in your sentences.”

“C'mon, who never had a ‘spaghetti coming out of the nose’ moment?”

“You insufferable...piece of...rotten lemon pie!”

“Do as I say and not as I do. For real, though. You don't want to do what I do. I don't want to do what I do.”

“I thought I’d never set foot in a place like this, but here we are. Congratulations on making my life a little more miserable.”

“Sometimes I wonder why I even bother. I might as well be talking to myself. I surely listen more to myself than you do.”

“Keep up the cocky act, it’ll only make you lose faster.”

“From where I’m standing, you’re the one who should be worrying.”

“Give me some credit. I know that I’m not a good person, but I like thinking that I can be a decent friend.”

“The only thing I trust humans with is dying when you shoot them.”

“How can you be vulnerable with someone who has shut you out over and over?”

“Yeah, not buying it. What is it that you truly want?”

“You know, now I have to challenge you at a drinking game.”

“Absolutely not. Don’t even think about it.”

“...Maybe I just need a real break.”

“I’d say that it’s nice to meet you, but maybe the circumstances could have been more…ideal.”

“You can’t be serious! Don’t you see what’s at stake here?!”

“Oh Lord, you gotta be kidding me. This will take forever.”

“Have you tried telling them that? It’s easy to forget that not everyone grieves in the same way.”

“Look at you, showing some actual good taste. I’m almost impressed.”

“Let’s skip over you judging me and talk business. Will you or won’t you?”

“Don’t get funny ideas. I’m just choosing the lesser evil.”

“Oh yeah? So, what? Are you saying that my problems will miraculously fix themselves, if I talk about them?”

“Let’s bet on it. The winner gets to make the loser do one thing. Whatever they want, no limits.”

“You must be really bored if this is how you chose to spend your night.”

“Patience, [name]. I thought you liked surprises.”

“I really wouldn't do that, if I were you.”

“Anything you’d like to say to plead your case?”

[ologistisms]

Open

“You’re bleeding. Let me help—dammit, stop being stubborn.”

[ologistisms]

Open Starter:

“You’re not human, are you?”

Briar said as it suddenly dawned on her and for someone who spent almost all of her time with animals, insects, fish and plants it was strange the flutter of panic she felt in her chest.
