Seems like the appropriate season for a comeback...don’t you think...

rcliicta​:

               ❛  i am aware, mr. morningstar is playing detective as so many people have put it lately.  ❜

      her hand waves lightly in the air, as if brushing away the words. she kept tabs on him in a manner of speaking. mostly his schedule, what kind of secretary would she be if she didn’t. lips tugging into a soft smile behind her cup —- this wasn’t her first time waiting around for the light-bringer.

               ❛  i was here to give my reports to mazikeen, and figured since hell is so quiet now-a-days. i would wait around and see if mr. morningstar had a need for me.  ❜    that was her plan, until she caught gaze of the other. figuring it would be rude to go about the devils home without acknowledging his beloved brother.  

‘ I’M AFRAID NONE of my brother’s  p e t s  or  LOVERS are here or available. Though you should know that, should you not? ’ A delicately neat brow is raised. Fingertips still pressed together in a way that had many a younger sibling ANXIOUS in eons past. Still did if any were unfortunate enough to catch themselves in the radius of the Archangel’s ire. 

How his brother ran things in the pit was not his to so openly comment upon in current company per say, yet still Gabriel silently judged. And would likely VOCALLY judge to Lucifer himself upon his return. Missing underlings and a wandering, ill-informed secretary....perhaps his brothers TIGHT GRIP was becoming softer in his never ending years. 

With a slow languid movement, celestial limbs inclined back into the chair. Gaze never leaving the little creature before him. Steepled digits gently  t a p p i n g  together in a steady rhythm. ‘ You can give your report to me if you wish. And I will relay it to him. ’

powerful prompts pt. 2

so i made a list of generic power prompts a while back, and i had a recent inspirational moment, so here we go again! many people sent in wonderful ideas for this, but they were so good and so full of potential for new memes that i’ll revisit them later! as always, with the action memes, please add “REVERSE” to let the receiver know if you want the roles reversed!

ACTION PROMPTS.

[ GLOW ]:     sender’s eyes begin to glow as a result of them preparing to use their powers.

[ BLEED ]:     sender’s nose begins to bleed as a direct result of them using their powers.

[ RADIANT ]:     preparing to use their powers, the sender’s skin begins to glow as they summon their power.

[ KILL ]:     while in full view of the receiver, sender uses their powers to kill someone.

[ SAVE ]:     sender uses their powers to save the receiver’s life from immediate and otherwise inevitable danger.

[ DEFEND ]:     in order to defend themselves from potential harm, the sender prepares to use their powers to fight the receiver.

[ PROTECT ]:     in order to protect the receiver from harm, the sender uses their powers to keep them safe and erase the threat.

[ DISPLAY ]:     sender tentatively displays a small amount of their power to show a curious receiver what they can do.

[ TEACH ]:     sender arrives at receiver’s doorstep to teach them how to use their newly discovered powers.

[ FEAR ]:     sender unleashes their powers in a massive way as a result of feelings of fear.

[ WARNING ]:     as a warning shot to keep the receiver away from them, the sender releases a quick, brief blast of their powers.

[ GRIEF ]:     having recently suffered a massive loss that causes huge feelings of grief, the sender releases a huge wave of their power.

[ RAGE ]:     overcome with sheer anger, sender unleashes their power on a massive, uncontrollable scale in front of the receiver.

[ LOST ]:    sender uses their powers to the point of losing control, unable to stop, forcing the receiver to try and intervene to limit the damage.

[ CALM ]:     witnessing the receiver losing control of their powers, sender frantically calls to them to try and keep them calm and in control.

[ COLLATERAL ]:     while using their powers in a reckless and possibly uncontrolled way, sender accidentally and severely wounds the receiver.

[ DEVASTATION ]:     sender arrives on scene to find the receiver, having recently lost control of their abilities, surrounded by the consequences. ( i.e. telekinetics surrounded by broken objects, pyrokinetics surrounded by scorched buildings etc. )

[ CONSEQUENCE ]:     having just unleashed a massive wave of their powers, sender regains consciousness to discover that the receiver has been fatally wounded as a direct result of their power.

DIALOGUE PROMPTS.

“ you know, it’s really difficult to explain injuries to a doctor when those injuries are caused by literal magic… ”

“ i… i’ve never been able to do that before… ”

“ no, no, uh… something’s wrong. it’s… my powers. my powers are gone. i can’t find them, they’re not… they’re not there anymore. ”

“ you have no idea what i’m capable of! ”

“ i… i’ve hurt people, before. i didn’t mean to. but i did. i lost control, and… i can’t let that happen again. ”

“ you need to lie low for a while. using your powers the way you’ve been using them… people are starting to take notice. ”

“ and why the hell should i be hiding, huh? why should i hide what i can do? it’s time the world knew, perhaps… that there’s gods among them. ”

“ i know about what you can do. i’m not blind, you know. i’m also not an idiot. i’ve known for a long time. ”

“ don’t give me that, okay? great power, great responsibility… it’s a load of bullshit. i never asked for this power, okay? i didn’t want this. i have it, and that’s not my fault. i just wanted a normal life! ”

“ you’ve seen what i can do when i lose control… i can’t let that happen again. “

“ you have powers, too, right? “

“ how long have you had them? how… how have you been able to control your powers so well that nobody knows you have them? “

“ people always expect us to be the heroes, don’t they? i figure it’s wishful thinking. manifestation, right? keep hoping the people who can destroy the world with a snap of their fingers, might just be good enough to want to save it instead… “

“ i heard that you have powers. and… i was hoping, maybe you could teach me how to use mine? “

“ together, if we combine what we can do… we would be unstoppable. “

“ people say they’d give anything to do what we can do. until they can do it, that is. then, they’d give even more to not be able to do it anymore. “

“ what do you mean? what’s wrong with your powers? “

“ i love you. not your powers, not your fame. you. “

“ we… we shouldn’t be together. not after tonight. those men wanted you dead because you know me; we were lucky that i was there to stop them. but… loving me, being with me… it puts a target on your back. and i won’t always be around to protect you. “

“ i don’t know how i’m able to do these things, so how the hell do you expect me to know how to control them?! “

“ don’t start what you can’t finish, kid. i’ve had my powers a lot longer than you have. it would be a very quick fight. “

“ i… i hurt those people? oh my… i could’ve destroyed the whole city if you hadn’t stopped me! “

“ how do i know that i’m in love with you for real? how do i know you’re not using your magic powers to make me think that i love you? “

“ don’t say that. you can’t know that, okay?! how do you know i’m not casting a magic spell on you to make you pretend that you love me? “

“ that’s not all i can do… would you like me to show you more? “

@tiberiusmadhouse said: I’m so tired of all the noise :: Cain

A SLOW BROW was drawn up along a smooth forehead. The expression one that could almost be deemed whimsical if the CHILL hadn't been quite so VIBRANT in the celestial's ancient gaze. Blatant in it’s distaste. Gabriel resting back in the leather of the chair, hands folding atop a leather bound novel balanced on a crossed knee. For a moment nothing but silence answers the statement that was seemingly still being absorbed by the ARCHANGEL . Before at length, when he had let the silence  s i m m e r  to what he hoped was a pointed reaction in and of itself, did he speak.

        ' Are you expecting me to offer you........sympathy? '

[tcrniishedcopper]

@tiberiusmadhouse said: all the hours i wasted trying hard to fool you, well they were never enough to hide all the pain i put you through. :: ellie

QUICK WAS THE HAND that snatched at the creature’s wrist. Gabriel's fingers clamping like a vice, tearing the touch away before digits that sought to offer a DANCING affection along the sleeves of a tailored jacket could make contact. It would be so easy. So easy to simply squeeze and CRUSH the bones captured in his grasp....so easy to grind and shatter them. To incinerate the treacherous snake where she stood, to hell be damned what Lucifer would do. Whether he would simply bring her back from the pit or not.....watching her pain would be worth it. Worth his brother's ire. And still, it would not be  e n o u g h .

           It never would be.

A pain of a different sort caught beneath the Archangel's ribs, one he had never truly spoken of, not even to his counterpart..........perhaps he never would.

' What do you want, hm? Little snake. Forgiveness? ' The expression is all frosty indifference....the eyes however. A STORM raged within them. White hot and BURNING. An eternal swirling of barely contained  a n g e r  and something else entirely. Gabriel's fingers tightening, grinding bone together before releasing them with a barely contained shove, he pushed the foul creature aside. Wrenching her AWAY. Only just reeling in the temptation to put her through the glass table a few feet from them both.

' You will not find that here. Many people think it is my brother that holds the strongest talent for keeping a grudge close....they would be wrong .'

deaf havana // rituals rp meme. 

edit/alter/change pronouns etc as you see fit!

sinner.

i’m so pathetic for ever thinking i’d change.

there are pieces of my past that i conveniently erased.

i fell in over my head.

my brain is just a tired mess.

my brain is just a tired mess of all the things i’ve abandoned.

you were never an exception.

i think i shut you out as a form of protection.

there’s an empty space that’s growing in my head.

i’m a sinner now.

i won’t be saved.

i’m a sinner now and i won’t be saved.

i’ve been lying to you more each day.

all my sins i’ve found, they won’t wash away.

i let you down, it’s what i always do best.

i found a way under your skin.

i found a way under your skin and somehow crept into your chest.

all the hours i wasted trying hard to fool you, well they were never enough to hide all the pain i put you through.

ritual.

i left you alone.

you’re a lost soul.

maybe the darkness took hold of me.

maybe i’m just scared of reality.

to tell you the truth, i’ve never felt so lost.

i’m getting weaker.

i never said i’d be the one.

i’m letting you go.

this is nothing more than a ritual between me and you.

all i could see was your bed.

it left me feeling alone.

its not just my fault.

you keep pulling me in.

my head’s fucked, like a drunk.

i fell hard at your feet.

fill my veins with poison, i’m so tired of all the noise.

i’m so tired of all the noise.

i’m always broke and i’m almost broken.

hell.

you just couldn’t see my dark with those rose lenses on.

i’m sorry i put you through this.

i never said i’d treat you right.

i told you i wish i could see you.

i guess i was lonely.

you chose to ignore what i said.

i guess you just know me.

you feel low right now.

wishing i could hold you now.

told myself i was feeling fine.

but then you call me up and said that we don’t talk, but when we do i’m just crossing the line.

i guess it’s just you were the fool.

you said i didn’t have a dark side.

you were wrong.

you said i didn’t have a dark side, you were wrong.

holy.

i was a liar.

i’ll never be holy in your eyes.

i’ll never be holy in your eyes, but you’ll never be either.

i know that underneath your smile hide the nights that you regret.

forget all the empty words i told you.

these demons follow me home.

it’s easy to bury the guilt on my own.

now my fears will finally swallow me whole.

i wasn’t honest.

you never wanted to admit that.

it’s a sickness i can’t seem to shake.

i’m drunk and i need you again.

i need you again.

i’ll always be a mess if i keep living this way.

despite all my flaws i still hope you’re okay.

i don’t know if i can honestly say that it’s getting better.

at least together, we were holy.

saviour.

maybe it’s time i found a better place to hide.

maybe it’s time i found a better place to hide, or just somebody to confide in.

i was never holding on to anything more than a memory of you.

i ended up drunk and afraid of what i’d become.

i should be ashamed for thinking i can save you.

i’ll never be your saviour.

i must be broken coz i saw myself in you.

even now i still find comfort in the corners of your mind.

it’s been killing me for years.

it’s been killing me for years but somehow keeping me alive.

if i’m so lovely then why don’t you love me?

how can you trust me?

fear.

am i on your mind?

am i on your mind? coz i’m struggling to keep you off mine.

reality’s becoming a lie.

you think that i’d wanna make a better impression?

i’m somebody who they can’t rely.

i tried to run and wait it out.

i’ve become a mess of doubts.

i know i’m hard to be around.

i know i’m hard to be around when i’m down and now.

you’re killing me with love.

i’m just using up your trust.

i treat your love like it’s a drug.

i’m addicted to the rush.

i know i’m alone.

i’m a wreck when i’m here.

it’s clear that i’m really not well.

pure.

i think i might’ve killed you.

you don’t always need to call me up when i’m in town.

it’s just too easy to lose track of morals in those rooms that we don’t own.

it all comes down to fear of being alone.

i’m devastated, i’m wasted.

i’m too burnt out and dying for a change.

you look so pure.

there’s something in your eyes that looks so pure.

you weren’t in love with me, just with my words.

you weren’t in love with me.

i shouldn’t have to be the one who admits that i was wrong.

you were wrong too.

but i come crawling back to you.

i know you burned out, praying things don’t change.

evil.

pure evil is running through my veins.

i made people fall in love with the way i made them feel.

i found the cracks in their broken souls before they could heal.

i hurt you in a way i can never forgive myself for.

i pretended that you never existed at all.

i know that i confused all the feelings i had.

i’m sorry it was you that i fooled.

i found a way to become whoever you needed.

it’s gone, but you’re still in me.

i’ve been holding it together, tryna bury the pain.

underneath the surface, i’m a mess.

heaven.

i feel so foolish that i let it get this far.

these things ain’t real.

all the alcohol won’t help my soul to heal.

when i’m with you, i feel so alive.

when i’m with you i keep losing my mind.

all the mistakes i’ve made still eat me up inside.

is this heaven?

if this is heaven, then hell comes from within.

i always had a way with words.

didn’t care who else along the way got hurt.

now i’m tiptoeing the lines between what i know is wrong, and moving on from all these countless nights.

you act like you know me.

you don’t know me at all.

worship.

are you drinking tonight?

can you talk me through this?

i guess i never felt so lonely and reckless.

you ain’t no stranger to falling.

i’m getting high but i’m so low all the time.

i’m still the fucked up kid i was from the start.

you look better than you ever did.

we fit perfectly together.

everything’s a mess when i’m around you.

i wish i’d never found you.

whatever makes you feel less alone.

i wish you’d known i was lonely.

i was scared that she would know we were doomed from the start.

we were doomed from the start.

every hour brings me closer to breaking apart.

saint.

my body aches, this is getting old.

it’s hard to quit.

pour me another, light me another.

i wish i could be a saint like my mother.

i would be proud to call you my brother.

i’m a nervous wreck.

epiphany.

i want all my tattoos erased.

i want a good job that really pays me, so i can finally act my age.

i wanna befriend couples and drink but, but two glasses, not bottles this time.

all i want is to begin again.

i know at time you wanted to kill me.

let me save you the trouble.
