Been thinking about Makoto again (whats new) and one aspect of her characterization that kinda gets forgotten or at least not spoken about much is the fact she's very determined? To the point of it being almost self destructive? Like yes she was sweet and kind hearted, and undeniably she was very vulnerable- a large part of her story is her having to depend on Majima but that wasn't the whole of it? When she sets her mind to something she goes for it.
She moved to Sotenbori to search for her brother, Japan was still relatively new to her, she'd lost her grandfather and her mother- but even alone against what had been a very cruel world she still tried.
Then there was what came after that- she survived against all odds, even losing her vision. she trained with Lee and became a very good little masseuse, still trudging forward- still with her goal in mind. Once she lost Tachibana she asked Majima outright if he would kill the patriarchs for her- a pretty wild thing to ask the man who was meant to be /your/ assassin not too long ago. She was told no and she said "Okay, I'll do it myself."
She marched her little ass up to Sohei Dojima and in front of those very patriarchs and all the Dojima family she asked for their heads- Did it work out for her? Was it smart? No. But she had a spine of steel and fuck if I don't love her for it.
And even at the very end we see her protecting the girl she was with, smacking both those yakuza who had accosted them, even telling her friend to run away- she'd take the brunt of whatever they were planning and she did it with a stiff upper lip. So yes Makoto was vulnerable. And yes she needed protection and help-
But she wasn't a wallflower.

WIP DAY.
tagged by @girlbosselrond @morvaris @aartyom @risingsh0t @phillipsgraves @leviiackrman @indorilnerevarine & @denerims over the past month! sorry it's taken me so long to get to anything at all, i'm sure you guys have heard me address it enough, but thank you all so much for continuing to tag me in things while i've been inactive ♡
tagging @aelyosos @brujah @calenhads @florbelles @jendoe @lightwardens @liurnia @nokstella @nuclearstorms @shadowsofrose @shellibisshe @steelport @swordcoasts @wrymbloods @voerman & all of those who tagged me again cause i'm so behind + anyone else who'd like to share anything they're working on, not just writing! ♡
i haven't written anything since the last wip game i did, but i started trying to put diana's timeline together at the start of january, so i mean... i'll show that instead. as you can see, fatigue hasn't let me do much with it even though i've got all of her timeline already done and strewn about all over the place.
started with 1995 onwards cause it was originally going to be an ewskers timeline situation, but then wanted to include all of her backstory so i went back to the start and still have the late 80s and early 90s to get through before then, but yeah :]
it's going to include like all little moments i've thought of between the ewskers just for me and placing them on the timeline, so you can imagine how long this is going to get if i have to go to 2021 for village... like just 1996-1998 is going to be so much... she's very special to me if you couldn't tell already lmaoo
never sharing this though, it's just for me, and like will help for when i do her timeline page (more in-depth version of what's on her oc page) to just run through canon events and brief descriptions and whatnot. you understand.
everything is blurred out besides 1995 ewskers momence and the years, just cause like idk her i feel weird sharing her in-depth backstory unless it's in dms or something, just cause there's lots going on there and yeah. things. idk
i also made a carrd for twt if you wanna have a look at that :] there's some cheeky subtle things with the two resi items i used as pics hehe
actually, you know what, i'll give a lil bit from where i left of with that rewrite anyways, even though it's been months since i wrote it. but why not
Wesker left a fleeting kiss behind her ear then reached around her and hooked his fingers beneath her coat, prompting Diana to glance back at him. But all he did was gently pull it from her shoulders. She watched him from out of the corner of her eye as he hung it up on the rack by the door, his movements careful and almost calculated, until he turned back towards her, and the warmth of his body returned once more.
He pressed up against her side this time, as opposed to her back, and one of his hands found a home on her waist. The way the arm it belonged to was resting firmly against her as he began leading her towards the kitchen was comforting, secure, yet unmistakably possessive. And she revelled in it. He had quite the knack for handling her just the way she wanted.

kindof funny to imagine my pre-existing ocs being in wbg... fucking dean pryor playing wbg. what a thought. WOULD HIS MOTHER BE HIS PRIZE? OR HIS DAD? oh if it was his dad he wouldnt even need the fourth challenge he'd kill that man on his own. no actually probably someone from his time working for blu....... interesting thought. oh no do NOT give pryor free access to time travel he'd immediately try to monopolize it. and also get fucking rich. oh my god he could fuck over so many people from his past... MAN. dont give the worst guy ever access to time travel its going to go disastrously. MAN.

i get why people dislike the concept of apps like storygraph and goodreads and i can totally see how it can create bad reading habits for people (reading without enjoyment/without absorbing anything you consume just to complete counterproductive 'reading challenges' to look good) but the thing is. privately. i DO like seeing the little charts and data tables they make based on my reading habits :-( i do enjoy looking at the little graphs change :-( im very aware that i tend to choose reflective fiction averaging 300 pages but when storygraph puts it into a colourful little pie chart for me? well i cant help it i do enjoy it i'm only human
