he had it coming (pre-canon rosalie, what is my life)

[eyeroll]

I never wanted any of this.

...but I have to admit, revenge? Is pretty sweet.

[TW: sexual assault, violence]

[timeshare_batwoman]

I hear ya.

[eyeroll]

And now this guy that I'd never met before a couple days ago is shaking his head at me and telling me that we don't kill humans, and that I shouldn't have done that--what if they just deserve it?

[timeshare_batwoman]

We gotta draw the line somewhere. Otherwise we're no better than them.

Besides, there's always giving them just enough rope to hang themselves, if they're that stupid and afraid of being caught.

[eyeroll]

What's done is done. And I don't think there's anything I could have done to them that would put me below their level.

It's finished now, at least. Although I suppose it is as they say: no rest for the wicked.

[timeshare_batwoman]

Still. That's what the old man says. We need to draw the line and never cross it. He even has a story about what happened when the capes did cross the line. It wasn't pretty.

Hah. No rest for the righteous, rather.

[diana_abel]

Oh, dude. Seriously slippery slope. Don't go there.

[eyeroll]

You don't know what they did to me.

[diana_abel]

Obviously. We've just met.

Do you need to talk about it?

sorry she's kind of a bitch >_>

[eyeroll]

What I need is for people to stop judging me for something that was well within my rights. What I did was nowhere even near what they deserved. Nothing I could do would have been.

This will only make Diana try harder

[diana_abel]

Hey, dude. No judging. I am judge-free.

Still...to quote the Bard, "The rarer action is in virtue than in vengeance."

You clearly should talk about it. And I happen to be an excellent listener.

[skirtcladgunner]

We never want it when fate deals us a shitty hand.

[eyeroll]

They keep telling me I should be glad to be... alive. Or whatever I am. All I want is... things to be the way they were.

Then again, I guess there was never any chance of that.

[skirtcladgunner]

I think it's pretty normal to want things how they were after huge changes.

Sounds to me like you got a second chance, though. That's more than I'll get. Sometimes you just have to keep moving forward, you know? Then again, the past is hard to escape.

[eyeroll]

I suppose. I've got a long time to work it out, after all.

[skirtcladgunner]

Sounds fun. [Spoken in a way that makes it clear she understands that it probably isn't.]

But revenge, huh? An eye for an eye makes the entire world blind, but I also think it's more than justified in some cases.

[indiscreet]

So it went well for you then? Your revenge?

I found mine tasted a little sour.

[eyeroll]

I suppose even this state has its perks. Like being able to punch a man so hard he flies across the room and his head splits open like an egg. It's strangely satisfying.

[indiscreet]

[ ...damn. Someone is either a vigor user or...okay, well. ]

That does sound satisfying -- under the right circumstance, at least. What the hell did the bastard do?

[eyeroll]

...I don't like to speak of it.

[indiscreet]

[ a pause, considering ]

...Fair.

Do you know what you'll do now, where you'll go next? It's a strange feeling of emptiness, it all being done.

[areyoumyfriend]

I know what it's like.

[eyeroll]

The irritating part is that killing them, while better than they deserved--they don't have to live with what they did to me. Not that they cared. I do.

But it's finished now.

[areyoumyfriend]

What are you going to do now?

[eyeroll]

...live, I guess. Or whatever one calls it, me being what I am now. The Doctor thinks that his boy and I should interest each other, but I'm not ready. And I barely know him and already he's trying to run my life.

I hope you don't mind canon!Emmett? I can switch it up if need be

[omnomnombears]

Whoah. What happened, babes?
