             she sniffs, as if it’ll  do  her  any  good  in  hiding  the  breakdown  she  just  had  .    so  ,   here’s  something  cindy  didn’t  think  through :   there  was  no  therapist  here  ,   which  definitely  ,   very  much  blows  .   in  all  honesty  ,   she  doesn’t  know  why  they’re  coming  .   ‘  i  don’t  even  know  why  i’m  crying  -  i  had  really  suffered  when  i  came  out  of  the  bunker  ,   all  i  wanted  was  to  not  be  overwhelmed  anymore  .  ’   but  now  she  can’t  feel  if  something’s  coming  ,   if  they’re  good  ,   if  they’re  bad  -  god  ,   she  can’t  even  get  some  comfort  boba  right  now  .  /  @elektraforhire​  .

Comforting angels wasn’t something the assassin was skilled at. There had been attempts of course throughout her lifetime but she failed to touch souls the way she desired. Instead her touch only led to torment and decay. Her thoughts easily bringing up almost every memory she ever shared with Matthew Murdock but the woman was not here to deep dive in her own regrets. No, this girl was no devil of hers but yet the sadness -- that practically echoed the devil’s that it had Elektra slow to a stop, feeling somewhat drawn to her. 

She had nothing to offer the weeping angel but a dagger, carefully catching a tear rolling down her pale cheek and sort of smiled when dark eyes met hers. “Chin up, girl. Crying won’t solve anything.” A harsh but honest reality. But as she looked at the girl, there was something tugging at her heart string. Familiarity. Elektra had took one look at the weeping angel and thought it was Matthew but in actuality it was a younger version of herself staring back at her. Lost and scared. Afraid of what might come and what she might have to do. She pushed the thoughts of comparison aside and instead gently handed the girl the small dagger. “Stab your feelings. It will make you feel better.”

Yes, they were on his priority but mother nature was far beyond his wheel house, he could only be there to steady the unsteady and get them to walk it off in a sense. But there he stood, frozen metaphorically speaking with his shoulders back, chin pointing horizontal to stare at the hang above his head and barely blinking when teeny-tiny red sand particles clung to his long blonde eyelashes. It didn’t deter him from staring, the coppery rust that has crept over the skyline brought dread into the former soldier and the last time he saw the sky this colour was days prior to going in the ice. Horrors of the irony of getting a flashbacks to a time he’d like to be left alone and funny comes from not being on the Earth’s curst but he put that down to simply his mind adjusting to a drastic change. 

Drawing in a breath, wishing that the breath he drew in was that of a plan but he kept coming up with blanks at the moment, the cupboard under his left bicep and a lead pencil instead of a pen rapping against his right knuckles. When he fell into steps to approach Elektra, seeing if she had done the rounds - that’s all they could do besides making people comfortable before or if the sky darkens. “Anything worth wild to report back or is all somewhat quiet on the western front?”

When Steve volunteered her to some sort of guard duty, Elektra had seriously debated about throwing a dagger straight at the old man’s heart. It would have been worth it for a second but she paused and the moment passed. Now she was stuck pretending to care enough to look around the perimeter of their sand doom dune. At least she didn’t have to stay with the lot of heroes, she thought to herself as the assassin followed instructions. 

The sky above hadn’t darken just yet but she imagined the moon and sun orbited around this planet just like the rest of them. The day was bound to turn into night and who knew what might come next. Hearing footsteps, her own slowed, preparing herself for a possible attack, katana swinging in her hand and sighed the moment she saw Steve’s face. “Jesus -- no. Just a bunch of red sand everywhere.” After placing her katana in its’ casing behind her back, she gave a slight shrug of her shoulders. “Figured out how to save us yet, Cap? Or is climbing out still too simple of a solution?”

Landing back on the sand as best he could with the winds the way they were, Sam grunted as he brushed some of the grit from his face. Wings spread out at his sides, he shook hard sending more sand from between the joints. “Well, that’s going to be a pain to clean.” He huffed, looking around for a moment, he spotted a woman standing not to far off. “Excuse me, ma’am. Could I trouble you for some help?”

After hearing about the possible shortage of food, Elektra of course took it upon herself to secure herself a bag of Lays. The one person who tried to take them from her now was tending to their bleeding hand and the assassin was happily eating alone, looking around the place to figure out an escape plan. Because as much fun as being with a bunch of so-called heroes were, they were a real downer! When the Bird man spoke to her, Elektra had just popped a chip in her mouth, rendering her speechless. Help? Her eyebrows furrowed for a moment before she could finally speak, replying, “Depends on what’s in it for me.” Her shoulders shrugged innocently as she popped another potato chip into her mouth.

Black Widow was a name she was semi-familar with. She was famous with S.H.I.E.L.D. and because of her own association with the organization, Elektra was not completely clueless of the Russian. In honestly, the assassin sort of admired the woman but she would never outright say it. Instead she just looked the redhead up and down and grinned. “You like guns, huh?” Guns were not Elektra’s weapon of choice but she knew the appeal of them. Especially when most humans chose to fight with bullets rather than sharp blades. “Did you think you needed them on this planet? Or well rather did you think your guns would be useful here?”

The familar face of Laura had the tiniest of grins forming. Finally! Someone who’s company would be not just welcomed but fun to have around. With a playful expression, the assassin turned to grab the bottle of whiskey she had “found” and waved it slightly in offering. “Kinney, want to share?”

These heroes being rendered powerless? Well Elektra could give two shits about it. In actuality this might be the best thing for these sad group of people who constantly used their power in substitution for knowledge and experience. While groups formed, trying to come up with the best solution to getting out of here and figure out how to get their powers back, the assassin was sitting at a nearby table, sharping her blade. These idiots would bicker their way to their deaths if these heroes had it their way. Meanwhile she could easily just used her daggers to climb out of this sand dune of Hell.

Despite having kept quiet, she was aware of a pair of eyes watching her like a hawk. Out of everyone here, Elektra didn’t think she warranted such concern but then again maybe the woman had a better sense than most. Within seconds one of her daggers flew towards the other woman in red and she smirked at the witch. “Did you know staring is kind of rude? Even though you are a pretty thing.”

BRIEF BACKGROUND? TIMELINE.

TW SELF-HARM

she born on a Greek island near the Aegean Sea to Hugo Kostas Natchios and his wife Christina Natchios

elektra's mother was gunned down by enemies of her father while vacationing on a yacht. After her mother's death, Elektra grew up close to her father but was plagued by visions and voices with no known source. She reacted to them through self-harming herself. Her father eventually sent her away to psychotherapy until becoming more stable. As she grew up, her father required that she train in the martial arts where she excelled.

eventually her father became a Greek ambassador for the US and they moved to NYC where Elektra studied at Columbia University where she met Matthew Murdock.

assigned to him, her goal was to get Matt to join the Chaste with Stick, her martial arts mentor. however unexpected romance bloomed and she failed her mission.

after her failed attempt, she focused on other missions for the Chaste until meeting Matt Murdock once again in Hell’s Kitchen a couple of years later, finding out he is known going by Daredevil.

during this time, she dies and is resurrected by The Hand to be their own personal assassin (now she earns the alias as the Black Sky)

she trains with them and slowly regains her memories that were warped during the resurrection and takes down one of the five members of the Hand.

she disappears, believed to be dead after the fall of midland circle. matt is also believed to be dead and months later matt is discovered alive.

during this time, elektra is healing and keeping her distance from the defenders and hell’s kitchen altogether.

when she came back, she had the help of those in S.H.I.E.L.D. in getting back on her feet, assigning her missions to keep an eye on her.

right now she’s in a pretty good place. she enjoys working as a hire by case with S.H.I.E.L.D. which gives her the freedom to do as she wishes while earning a decent paycheck.

she decided to join the rescue group mostly because S.H.I.E.L.D. kind of is paying her to do so.

she’s unaware that Matt is going to be on the planet hahahaha

QUESTIONNAIRE.

How is your character taking the unilateral decision to leave earth?

She’s okay with it. Honestly she’s only joining this rescue mission because she’s getting paid to.

Is your character dealing well with the prospect of life on a new planet? Are they scared? Concerned? Excited?

She’s unconcerned? Despite others being stuck on the planet, she also knows she’s going to be okay. She can defend for herself and as for getting off the planet, the assassin knows the heroes will figure it out.

Is your character cooperating with the other groups, or fighting against these tentative new alliances?

She’s going to cooperate if it benefits her.

For those who are unaware of PROJECT NEW HOME; Does your character realize they’re stuck on Orbulite? Are they making plans on trying to leave?

x

For those who are part of PROJECT NEW HOME; Is your character optimistic that their relocation will work out as intended?

x

If your character volunteered to be part of the first two groups to Orbulite, or the rescue group sent after them, why?

She didn’t exactly volunteer to be on the rescue mission but she hopes she succeeds because she wants that $$$

ANYTHING ELSE?

honestly gimme all the plots. i’m here for angst & ic drama so >.>
