send me "be honest..." with a question your muse has been dying to ask mine and they'll answer truthfully.

[neuroslayyer]

I never thought that I don’t want you to be my sister. It was my fault.

I'm waiting to get my copy of Sun Signs by Linda Goodman so I can further research and decide on what Mina would be. But I fear she may end up being a stereotypical scorpio. Yet I also leaning heavily towards Aries. 🤔

"I think I can be bribed with noodles. My treat even because I'm sooooo nice." V says with a nod.

Very sad. Very beautiful. As all tragedies are. Or fairytales. Except there is no pixie dust nor rainbows; no forever after guaranteed.

Through the maze of sorrow made material she leads the way. It's appropriately quiet. Amazing how this one spot in all the hellhole of this city is trapped in a bubble of somber serenity. And she is practically silent the whole walk. Glances of him are stolen from the corners of her optics. He's handsome (even times when he's covered in blood and grime). Sweeter than any candy she's ever ate, and warm as a hundred suns. Fantastic. Wonderful.

And she's gotten so attached to him, and he her. It's just not fair.

"Will you visit my niche when it's on one of those columns?" V asks as she comes to a stop beside her motorcycle that is (miraculously still) parked on the sidewalk. At first she doesn't look at him, just rests her hands on the leather of the seat. "Because..." her lungs heave and her throat tightens up. "Because I'm dying choom. Not just in the Nihilistic, we're dying every second of everyday kind of way."

A laugh finally bubbles up, almost sounding like a huff. "My days are numbered. The malfunctions get stronger and more frequent." A leg swings over the side of the bike as she sits on it. "You know what goes great with noodles? Slushies."

"Non. It does not." Time does a lot of things. But it can't fix what's happened already. Just make it further away. "But it helps to have people to confide in. And who have a similar ache." Makes it feel like he's not so alone.

He hopes she feels this way too.

Frenchie waves a hand. "S'il te plait. Mon amie, we are indulging each other's pity parties, hmn? You and me. Very sad. Very beautiful." He gives his head a shake as if tossing hair over his shoulder. "Je t'aime aussi." I love you too. Because he did. How could he not?

Even now. Persisting. The horrors. She made space for him. She didn't have to. Frenchie didn't doubt that V had some of her own shit dragging her down. She didn't need his. Wasn't that what friends were for? Holding each other up?

"I am not sorry. I am glad I showed up here. I like to see you, my friend. Maybe if you are not busy we can get noodles, hmn? There's a good place near my shithole apartment~" Food to lift the spirits. And maybe there will be a hold up or something along the way to really switch things up. That would be fun.

[neuroslayyer]

I really think Songbird giving Johnny the boot in Mina's brain, even for such a short stint, really gives her anxiety and makes her panic. because (I always do phantom pain near the endgame when all other options are exhausted/right before nocturne) she's gotten so use to him being around and being part of her that to have that piece missing is very distressing.

[neuroslayyer]

Listen, sometimes a ship is less about wanting them to kiss or have sex or whatever, and more about needing them to be so endlessly intertwined and connected to the point where they might as well be one creature.

[neuroslayyer]

Not far in the distance is the sound of sirens and explosions. The nighttime is alight not only by the typical neon glow but also an ever growing fire while smoke fills the already polluted city air. Adrenaline shoots through her veins, her heart racing. V laughs as she embraces him. "Happy New Year." Lips are pressed to his in a passionate kiss. When she pulls away she presses her forehead to his with no care to the sweat that coats her skin. "Here's hopefully to at least one more, whether it's quiet or a blaze of glory." / @neuroslayyer

Frenchie was almost quite literally buzzing. Holidays always do that for him. Get him excited. The energy of everyone else feeds him and he in turn finds himself alight with that buzzing energy.

He scoops her up, gathering V in his arms. They're both sweating, and gross. But he doesn't care. Not even a little bit. They share a kiss and it's deep and passionate and Frenchie laughs when they part, lips tingling.

"Two more. Three more. Whatever we have left." It's a promise, this. Frenchie's revolution. He bumps their noses together and leans in to kiss her one last time, a little more chaste. "Happy New Year. You have me, and I have you, V." That's a promise too. Frenchie gives her a squeeze and pulls back to look at her, face lit up by flashing lights and the life of the city.

They can, he thinks, make it. Fuck what the city tries to take from them. It won't take this. Not this year.
