A Bit of a rant

Why I love Rose Tyler: 

Why she is my favorite companion:  I wrote this rant in response to a comment that Rose x Doctor felt forced and honestly I’m just posting it here because I needed to get it out but I didn’t feel like getting into it with the person who said it hahaha. So this is more for my own cathartist than anything else.   Okay first thing: They started as friends first.  She has always called him out on his bullshit, and hasn't always listened to him. She made him show compassion to a Dalek. A species that was literally at war with his people.    She knows he's important to the universe, that he needs someone there. Her line of " He's not my boyfriend Mickey he's much more important." That he can't really do what he does alone because he needs someone to ground him. Planets, aliens, people all rely on him.  Rose just didn't want him to be on his own. That was her main concern always. When she's at bad wolf bay and asks him if he's going to be on his own and he nods she tells him she loves him. Hoping that is a small comfort for the fact that she knows how lonely and sad he is. When the dalek had her and she was sure she was going to be killed she told the doctor "Whatever happens it wasn't your fault." Basically saying look I signed up for this and I knew the risk I was taking don't blame yourself. When Martha got in danger she screamed at the doctor " this is your fault!" basically trying to absolve herself of any responsibility. Do I like Martha? Yes. She is brilliant and I dont think the doctor necessarily treated her the way she deserved to be treated but that’s another rant.   When the possibility that the doctor might be dead Rose's thought was "well even if he was how could I leave him? All on his own all the way down there?" Even if it meant her own death she still didn’t want him to be on his own.   When she met Donna she literally told donna she was the most important woman in the whole of creation.  Cared about Donna's family, and Donna herself. She invited Sarah Jane along with them, and even asked Sarah Jane seriously if she should stay, looking to the older woman for advice. The only reason they both argued at first was Rose was told NOTHING about her and she saw how close they were and realized does he just get close to people and dump them?  Does Rose have selfish moments? Absolutely but so does the Doctor. The Doctor treated Mickey like shit because the Doctor was absolutely 100 percent jealous and wanted Mickey out of the way.  Rose remember is a 19 year old girl. She never had much going on in her life and this guy who is 900 years old shows up and basically challenges her reality and she challenges him right back. They challenge each other to think about things differently and changed each other for the better. He gave her purpose, drive, and believed in her even though she was low economic standing, wasn’t “special” by any societal standards, but was brave, compassionate and kind. She taught him that compassion that he carries with him even now.     Sorry just had to get this out because their relationship has been one of my favorites for TV couples basically ever and I needed to get out why I love them so much.

「“Oh no, this is bad...”」

Events had somehow turned out what he hadn’t thought of them to be, unfortunate on him and several others that were just as anticipated as he was. Out of hunger and influence from the aromatic air pursuing him to go through the door, although he presumed to buy a simple treat for himself- the idea never crossed to him that such mistakes were bound to happen in a professional area. Well, he couldn’t blame him entirely; people had their bad days too. Groans echoing from behind as customers weren’t as sympathetic as the boy was, a nervous smile formed around his lips, hoping that would do some justice with the situation. 

Ah- what to do, what to do... Beside him stood an older individual, primly dressed and quite sharp. Even if it was just one person, it wouldn’t hurt trying to be enthusiastic between one of them.

「“Looks like some of these are burned, were you going to get one?”」

    What a place this was. In such a short time, the Outsider had been kept fairly busy with floating from place to place to see what various things that the residents here were concocting. It was all just so interesting in comparison to bleary little Dunwall, with its political scandals and aristocracy built upon the backs of the plagued and unfortunate.

    It was a breath of fresh air, even if it was essentially the same smog he was breathing in. He knows, deep in his lungs, that he will grow tired and bored of this city. That he will uncover its dirty secrets and he will once again grow unaffected by the currently interesting things that these people do.

    But for now, he was content to seek out those hiding in the dark corners of this industrial playground.

    Except... Now, it was a literal dark corner he was lurking about in. He was delicately walking along the edge of a building when he noticed someone below down in the alley. His head tilted as he tried to see what the person was actually doing but without supernatural help..

    With a muted noise he was gone from the edge of the roof in a cloud of dark smoke and muted stars. In a similar cloud on he reappeared on a fire escape, his black eyes bright as he watched the person below do whatever it was they were doing. It was some sort of magic but not the kind he had seen in quite some time. So he was content to lay across the metal bars and see where this person would go with it.

matters of the heart.

26. If you loved someone but they refused to marry, would you stay with them?

“Really? Did Natasha say this to you? I never realized that being married to me was that scarring an incident.”

This is your badness level. It's unusually high for someone your size.

dark side of the moon.

Sometimes, not that often, Kido lies awake and wonders what she could’ve done differently to change the present for the better She knows dwelling on the past won’t change anything, all those thoughts and questions are for naught, yet the girl cannot help but wonder. Would everybody else maybe better without her? Is she truly as important to the dan as she was made to believe? Very quick Kido scolds herself for doubting her friends, for denying everything they ever told her, however, in the deepest corner of her mind she’s still in disbelief, too scarred by her actual family. It’s hard for her to accept compliments, to truly think she’s of worth when her childhood was nothing but being told how everybody would be better off if she’s gone. 

Kido tries her best to not cry these nights, to not wake anybody else up and buries her face into her pillow, lets it absorb all her sobs and gets up a bit sooner than usual to take care of the circles under her red eyes.

grudge, law.

Grudge :: How bad does an insult go over? Do they hold a grudge long?

Insults upon Frederick are often looked over, deemed minuscule in comparison to an insult of his country or the family he serves under, and if you insult his prince you’ll never be able to live it down until Chrom tells him to stop. 

Law :: What do they think about abiding rules? Are they selective about it?

Complete and total upholding of the rules. Rules run his life. The only time he’ll be selective of it is if told to yield by the actual ruler of the land. Even then, he won’t like it.

Hoo boy.

I can’t get a straight answer out of Edward on this one. He’s trying to claim he hasn’t. I know it’s not the truth, but he won’t talk about it. Sorry!

insomnia, grudge.

Insomnia :: What’s their sleeping schedule like? Snorer? Sound sleeper?

“I sleep when I have the time to rest. Considering how I always have friends in need, that means almost never!” Why are you saying that so cheerfully?

Grudge :: How bad does an insult go over? Do they hold a grudge long?

“Grudges are for losers, man! The only thing I take as an offense is when people insult my manliness and even then I can forgive them easy. If you insult my friends, though, that’s another story...” He’s cracking his knuckles at the sheer notion.

Is your muse looking for a long term relationship? Are they in one? What do they think of marriage and binding themselves to someone?

SCREAMING.PNG

Ahem, well, yes, Nemesis is not looking for love or relationships and probably never will again.

Not after last time. Thanks Daddy.

Do they take control or give control or do they believe in sharing power? What are their thoughts on control versus submission (either sexually or in relationships in general)? What do they think of authority?

At one time Nemesis was very willing to take orders. If Mr Pere Noel ordered it, she would do it, without question. Her place was to do what she was asked, and she was fine with that.

Then something (see above) happened that changed everything. Now, Nemesis is a conquer and a dictator. She won’t stop until everything is hers to control, to shape the way she sees. Authority? She IS authority. Those who try to act superior to her are quickly disposed of. She owns Evillious, and she doesn’t plan to stop there either.

        Svelte digits flicked this way and that, flexing until Morrigan's wrist made an audible pop, finding herself gently massaging the protruding veins with her thumb when the lack of mana made her blood run cold. An unusual circumstance to lack so much all at once; thus, comfort had vanished completely. In 'The Ghetto,' the sorceress sought rest, seated beneath a flickering lamp, its odd source of lighting at a loss of power.

   Light was obscured when a figure cast a shadow, slowly climbing her lap. Hands fold neatly in her lap, piercing eyes gilded with gold half-lidded finding those akin to hers, though sincerely lacking warmth. 

   "'Tis a curious thing. A most vexatious fate to become of me, and yet foreigners flock to me like estranged pigeons." A brow snapped upward. "Though, you feature a crane the most. What say you?"

☆*･゜ﾟ･《 Puella Magi Märchen Magica! 》･゜ﾟ･*☆

❣ Candidate: Sayaka Miki Märchen von Friedhof [ cathartise ]

❣ Age: 32? [so theorizes mär-mun but younger than that for this AU]

❣ Gender: M

-o-

[done for the switcheroo! for crack! purposes of meme, it was assumed that kyubey could grant powers to all ppl regardless of gender/cuteness aka boys.] :p

[disclaimer: i know so little about this series. >.<; i kinda just threw the most well-known characters together and made a massive AU portmanteau. XD emphasis on the massive]

-o-

❣ Wish: 

To cure his childhood friend from a fatal sickness.

❣ Prelude:

When Märchen was a young boy, he fell down a well and nearly drowned. Luckily, his best friend Elisabeth, who was playing with him, found someone in time to rescue him. Despite this, trauma of the incident never left Mär, making him a quiet, withdrawn boy. Growing up, he was very much dependent on Elisabeth and listened to her advice on everything. Besides that, his only hobbies were books and music--especially writing his own compositions, to the point where people considered him a prodigy.

Still, Märchen professed to have no interest in showcasing his talents, and was content to stay by his best friend's side. She was his light, his inspiration, his everything. Naturally, when she fell deathly ill, he was devastated, and sought every method to make her well. It was all too easy for AU-grants-wishes-to-guys-too Kyubey to have him make a contract.

❣ Puella Magi Powers:

Sayaka's Märchen's powers center around music. As he is not active by nature, he possesses no weapon. Instead, he makes use of a large, leather-bound book filled with musical scores both real and imagined.

Due to his innate talent in music, Märchen is able to physically manipulate melodies in air with his fingers, using classical compositions to defeat witches. [Beethoven's 9th Symphony is especially effective~] After a while he picks up the habit of bringing a conducting baton to his battles, as he disliked other Puella Magi comparing him to a magician performing petty tricks. He himself has always preferred the term 'composer,' or barring that, 'conductor.' 

He is also able to heal others as a result of his wish, usually via calming melodies or lullabies. When not fighting witches or looking after his friend, Märchen keeps up with his compositions, occasionally penning new works to use in battle with devastating effect.

-o-

❣ Fall to Despair:

"We forge the chains we wear in life."

Due to his status as a magical girl boy, Märchen was constantly on the hunt for witches. He did not mind this as it was all for the sake of his wish, but Elisabeth thought differently, and begin to think he was neglecting her on purpose. It did not help matters when she followed him one day and found him in the company of other Puella Magi that he had taken under his wing. Unknown to Märchen, Elisabeth was actually in love with him, and mistook his sense of duty as affection for other girls.

She never said anything to him, but quietly hid her broken heart behind a winning smile. Märchen, seeing his friend unusually happy, was secretly pleased and vowed to dedicate even more of his time to fighting witches for her sake. Unfortunately, this only served to deepen the misunderstanding between them. As Märchen grew more confident, open, and charismatic, Elisabeth wavered, withered, and began to waste away in true Victorian fashion.

Things came to a head when one of Märchen's charges confessed her feelings to him, leaving him confounded. Naturally, he went to ask his closest friend for help--Elisabeth. It was the final straw that broke the dam to Elisabeth's feelings, and in a fit of frustration and sorrow, she pushed him away, declaring that she despised him.

Märchen was both confused and a little hurt, but decided to leave Elisabeth alone. Instead, he took matters into his own [inexperienced] hands, inadvertently breaking hearts of Puella Magi left and right as he went about hunting witches in a business-as-usual manner. 

One of them eventually shattered, and became a witch.

A horrified Märchen finally realized just what it was they were killing. Added to the fact that they were his only friends [besides Elisabeth, who had rejected him], it was enough to send him over the edge and become a witch himself.

❣ Witch Form: Puppenspieler von Ketten, the tragic Puppeteer of Chains.

The puppeteer witch; its body is perpetually trapped in a coffin bound up by thousands of unending chains. Cursed with knowledge of the truth, it seeks to atone for the many sins that weigh it down. It once had a heart, but has since dug it out with its own hands, leaving a hole behind. Its mouth is sewn shut, as are its eyes and ears; it does not wish to deal in evil, and yet is drowning in its own guilt. Those who try to approach it are forced to meet its puppet dolls in battle instead. Those who fight past them must avoid its chains, which can crush and cut. It cannot feel, and is eternally mute, the music that once heralded victories now only singing of defeat.

❣ Familiar(s):

Elise Liesel, the Doll of Despair:

The puppet witch's minion. A corrupted form of someone who was special to the witch. She appears as a beautiful doll who acts as its companion. Unlike the witch, she is free to experience emotions, and has a high, piercing laugh. Those she fancies are inevitably snared into her little games, until she tosses them to the witch to be sliced into pieces.

The Company, as supporting minions:

They are servants of the witch, but follow Liesel's command. They resemble a host of beautiful girls, symbols of Puella Magi lost to darkness. And yet they have no faces or features behind their masks. They are constantly raising their voices in a wailing song, and all those who listen soon find themselves succumbing to the madness of the melody.

-o-

❣ Denouement:

"This life, which had been the tomb of his virtue and of his honour, is but a walking shadow; a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more: it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."

After successfully defeating seven princesses magical girls in succession, Puppenspieler is destroyed by none other than Elisabeth herself, who makes a contract for that very purpose. She defeats him, though without full knowledge of who he is, and goes on to protect their town in his place. She spends her days living normally and constantly on the search for Märchen, who has mysteriously gone missing.

One day she visits the fateful well of their childhood, and sees something familiar lying half-covered in the grass by its edge: a conductor's baton. 

Finding the body was bad enough, but then Kyubey tells her the truth--of everything--when Elisabeth asks enough questions. The energy from her Grief Seed is enough to meet his quota for a month before he finds his next candidate.

[whoops, this went long. also i made mär more human than he is normally i think because slice-of-life AU seems to fluffi-fy things.] [and so it kind of ended up sounding like a shoujo storyline, egads >.<;;]

15. Hold your muse’s hand

[ It was getting more and more dangerous each second they stayed where they were. The fire somehow spread to a building nearby and the evacuating crowd grew thicker instead of the opposite. The screams could be heard nearer and Agnes decided that they should cut off their discussion for now. ]

switcheroo, if you're up for it!

Märchen von Friedhof wakes up on the Floor of Tests with a young girl by his side, a Guide named Elise. It is rumored that she is one of Ashul Edwaru’s side experiments before his 13 Month Series, that she is a doll whose sentience stems from a soul of Shinsoo, but whether or not this rumor holds any substance is unclear. Märchen retains no memory of entering the Tower or moving up from the First Floor, but he passes as a Regular and is able to take tests on each floor. Elise tells him his purpose is to aid seven of the Zahard Princesses, young girls adopted into the Zahard bloodline for their fighting prowess and strength to serve Zahard, in their climb up the Tower to the 134th Floor, each representing one of the seven deadly sins according to her. As his Guide, Elise navigates the Tower by his side and leads him to where he is needed. As he climbs the Tower, Märchen discovers his skills as a Wave Controller, albeit an unusual one. The Shinsoo he manipulates is black and, unlike elemental Shinsoo, it holds no properties of the existing natural elements, such as fire and lightning.

The first princess he is acquainted with is Anak, who seeks a violent revenge on Zahard for the death of her mother. Märchen aids her in the Crown Game, supporting her in battle and defending her once she gets the Crown, and from then on becomes part of her team as she climbs the Tower.

The second princess he meets is Androssi, a popular Regular of celebrity-like status who wants to date but can’t due to her status as a Zahard Princess. She joins Märchen’s team as well and he continues to climb with them, hoping after he aids the seven princesses, he can climb the Tower himself and find out where he came from when he reaches the top.

Currently, he is on the 25th Floor and has met two of the seven princesses.
