"you can still be kind to everyone, but you still need boundaries for yourself. I can help everyone I can, but doesn't mean we'll get along in the long run"

@firestorm-heroes

The man with light pink hair that was over half his face hiding the fact that it was badly burned limped over to her using a staff for balance. "Haven't seen you before have I?'

[firestorm-heroes]

"it would be nice. But it's unrealistic. If you became friends with everyone, you'd still be enemies to others. And you'd lose sense of who you are in the process "

[firestorm-heroes]

"well, only time will tell because despite best efforts, I can't be friends with everyone. Someone's gonna hate me eventually"

@firestorm-heroes

The man with light pink hair that was over half his face hiding the fact that it was badly burned limped over to her using a staff for balance. "Haven't seen you before have I?'

[firestorm-heroes]

"and you're looking for threats?" She asked. "I can be whatever."

[firestorm-heroes]

"no. Should you have?" The girl replied, looking up at him. She adjusted her scarf slightly, her own burn covered by it.

"open in this door between us and let's see for sure " Layla replied, staying back for now, trying to let her small woman appearance be disarming

@firestorm-heroes

The leader of the starforce chuckled as he walked over to the prisoner they had captured after hearing stories about her being a supposed threat. "So you must be the trouble maker?"

"hardly!" She laughed. "you're just trying to get laid. That's why anyone flirts at a bar. I'm just a cute girl who is tolerating you at the moment, yeah?"

She was clearly teasing, seeing how he'd respond. "Plus, you're a tad bit... Red for me"

"I have to hold my own. I have a lot of guys o need to keep in line." She smirked and took a sip of her drink.

[firestorm-heroes]

"then drink up" she shook her head with a smile and looked at Buck. She thought he was the flirt.

"I have to hold my own. I have a lot of guys o need to keep in line." She smirked and took a sip of her drink.

[firestorm-heroes]

"buck, hurry and order your friend a drink because this bitch is THIRSTY" Layla grinned as she took another drink herself

"I have to hold my own. I have a lot of guys o need to keep in line." She smirked and took a sip of her drink.

[firestorm-heroes]

"you looking?" She smirked and put her bottle down. She was plenty confident, but she didn't want to just rub it in their face.

"at the moment..?" Layla ran her finger down the neck of her bottle in thought. "no. Not at the moment. I'm single as a slice of kraft cheese."

"I have to hold my own. I have a lot of guys o need to keep in line." She smirked and took a sip of her drink.

[firestorm-heroes]

"eh. Strong willed possibly." She shrugged, trying to downplay it. Make her seem less than she actually was. "stubborn is the word I hear most."

Layla hummed as she sat back and thought for a bit. "What do you want to know? I'm a dispatch. So that's one thing"

"I have to hold my own. I have a lot of guys o need to keep in line." She smirked and took a sip of her drink.

[firestorm-heroes]

"I have to hold my own. I have a lot of guys o need to keep in line." She smirked and took a sip of her drink.

Layla sat at the booth in the bar, sipping from her bottle as she checked her wrist as if there was a watch on it and not a braiding best friend bracelet. She looked up at the two approaching her and lazily yawned.

"well well, late. And here I thought you two were supposed to be first responders "

@ellarosalieharris

[firestorm-heroes]

"and I'm aware. If anything, I'm more of a first responder than you" she mused, subtly reminding him she's dispatch. "But hello. Sorry for the hard time. You're not interrupting anything. If anything, you're a welcome addition"

Bruises and Bruising

WORDS

“Where did you get those?”

“Is that…. somebody’s hand?”

“Is that… a bootprint?”

“It’ll look worse before it looks better.”

“Come on. Let’s get it wrapped up.”

“Do you want some painkillers?”

“Let me guess, I should ‘see the other guy’?”

“How’d you get a black eye?”

“I know you don’t do it on purpose, but I wish you’d stop coming home bruised.”

“I like the new look. It suits you.”

“Ouch, that looks like it hurts.”

“Talk to me.”

“You shouldn’t end up with bruises because you disagree with them. You know that, right?”

“Will you tell me how it happened?”

“Come and sit with me.”

ACTIONS

(send ‘+reverse’ to reverse the roles, or specify which muse is which!)

[sit] – sender comes and sits next to a bruised receiver. no words, just warmth.

[care] – sender provides physical care for receiver’s bruises (ice pack, wrapping them up, etc)

[shower] – sender takes one look at a bruised and bloody receiver, and goes to run them a shower. hot showers fix everything.

[offer] – sender has something they know receiver will want, and because receiver has had a bad enough day as it is, sender gives it to them. it’s the little things.

[stay] – sender offers receiver a place to stay, so that – wherever they got these bruises – they don’t have to go back.

[concussion] – sender checks receiver for a concussion, because it’s very possible receiver has one.

[home] – sender has no physical way of helping receiver out of this situation, but they offer out their hand anyway. just to hold onto (and to not let go).
