To say Rosita was getting frustrated was an understatement. She’d been holed up in this camp for weeks, unable to get a damn clue about where her family was, or if they’d even made it in the first place. There were other camps, that she knew— being part of the military, Rosita had more knowledge on things than most of the refugees out there. Well, on how things were supposed to go. Who knows if they’d managed to set up those camps?

The outbreak of whatever fucked up virus this was had thrown the entire world upside down, taking out the vast majority of the population in south Texas within weeks. And it was only getting worse and worse, as those flesh-consuming monsters would spread their disease, turning the living into one of them, and so, those things had multiplied, and with more being out there, the disease kept spreading faster, resembling the exponential growth of bacteria.

No one knew what had caused it, or even how it spread.

As such, the military took their precautions to the extreme, not allowing people to leave the makeshift wall built up around the small town, let alone leave this place. The last two guys who’d dared to venture beyond the walls had suffered a shit fate, with one of them having been torn apart by those monsters. And the other guy? As he tried to flee inside, the officers just shot him straight in the head, no words exchanged.

Leaving meant never being able to return to the camp.

Espinosa was sitting near the people; but a bit in a secluded corner, opening a can of food with her multitool. An older woman around the fire was muttering something about the dead having torn apart her granddaughter, and her other one still being out there somewhere, her voice breaking in anguish. And then there’s a guy complaining about not being able to go out to see his wife; the same guy who’d been complaining for weeks. Everyone around them too absorbed in their own pain and grief to say anything.

She was forcing the content of the can down her throat— some kind of soup with a taste that leaves much to be desired, when she saw a woman approaching. Rosita never asked her name, but they’d spoken before.

“Yeah?” Rosita raised a brow as she heard Kyleigh’s suggestion. “And what makes you think I wanna get the hell out of here?”

She was curious. Maybe the woman was a whole lot more observant than most around here. Rosita hadn’t said anything about wanting to get out of here at all; just in case she ever planned to flee. She didn’t want to raise suspicions, have the military officers keep an eye on her specifically. But Rosita did want to get out.

For a being that had lived most of her life avoiding the human race Kyleigh Thompson never imagined that one day she would have to be around so many of them. The ones that weren't infected with this… disease or whatever it was. No one seemed to know, not even the government could update them on it. That was weeks ago now. All power and any kind of utilities had broken down, the world thrown into pure chaos. Forced into this so-called camp with a few others, the half lycan was starting to wonder just when the hell this was all going to get better. If it ever was.

The others were sitting around a big fire, eating something that once again came out of a can with no label on it. Kyleigh was getting tired of the run around, tired of waiting for another death. Walking over to the other brunette woman, they had briefly spoken before, she sat down and tossed another stick into the fire.

"Starting to think it's about time we get the hell out of here and see if this shit's as bad as they say it is." She spoke, toes digging into the ground.

The moment the words left Rosita’s lips, she regretted not holding her tongue. For as long as she could go on about the man’s horrible qualities she loathed so much - his cruelty, his smugness, the perversion in his humor, he was admittedly just as quick-witted as he was full of himself. Always one step ahead, ready to make you look stupid and small with a clever comeback.

Rosita bit the inside of her cheek in frustration, fighting not to let her face convey the chaos of emotions she desperately tried to hide with all the strength that was left inside her. She could not let him see her defeated like this. There were so many things she was feeling, facing the man who had taken the life of the man she loved so much right in front of her eyes, only to force her to look at the murder weapon coated in his brain matter and blood.

Uncontrollable anger, just begging her to storm towards him and plunge that knife she still had on her into his neck. The grief that haunted her, a wound so raw that it felt impossible to fully realize that Abraham was gone, gone forever, the question of whether he had ever loved her in the first place remaining forever unanswered.

Nothing she could afford to express. Showing her pain? Rosita wouldn’t give Negan the satisfaction. Anger? If she lashed out at him too much, that could bring consequences, cause him to punish someone else. That’s the way Negan handled things.

And she wasn’t gonna let him see the embarrassment she felt over her stupid comment.

Just before she was about to argue with what he said—come back with a taunting response, she decided not to make the same mistake again and instead cut straight to the chase.

“What the hell do you want, Negan?”

Her posture was as rigid as her tone filled with venom, fists clenched even though she wanted to appear relaxed, as she was certain letting go of all that tension would make her tremble, and that was the last thing she would want. Not in front of Negan.

She kept her piercing gaze right above his eyes, an attempt to give the illusion of making eye contact as her mind wandered to Sasha. Where was she? Had she been caught, too?

“   Do not mock a pain you haven’t endured. ”

Clearing memes

Negan huffed a deep chuckle in response to her words. The absolute ARROGANCE that permeated within Rick's group really never ceased to amaze him.

❝ Hell, you'll have to excuse my ignorance. 'Cause my ass? My ass didn't realize you were a god damn psychic. ❞ He moved a few steps closer, his smile fading as he went on.

❝ But let's be real for a second here, Rosita. The REAL fact is? You don't know shit about shit. ❞

random trivial headcanon; rosita definitely will read comics when the mood strikes. alongside with carl, michonne, enid, tara and eugene she is one of the alexandrians who read comics. and whenever she is out on a supply run and she sees something cool that she knows her friends would like, she'll pick it up for them.

✨ - Star sign

Rosita is a Scorpio. They're said to be: loyal, smart, shrewd, stoic, independent and brave, which describes Rosita perfectly.

👎- Biggest pet peeve

People with poor table manners. Even in the apocalypse.

Thanksgiving. She didn't have a lot of money growing up but she would always have a special dinner with her family on Thanksgiving. Her mother made sure of that. And later on she made sure that her nephew would get to eat something special.

🍕 - Favourite food

Enchiladas.

😱 - Biggest fear

After Abraham's death she has lost so many things that Rosita expects that she might lose everyone else too. She's also not afraid of dying at this point. But she is still scared of losing more people.

🍿- Favourite movie

Rosita loves High School Musical.

🏞️ - Favourite place

Rosita once went hiking in Palo Duro Canyon State Park while she was on shore leave. The view was incredible and she will never forget how beautiful the Milky Way looked at night.

Summer.

🍸- Favourite drink

Homemade iced tea.

📜📜📜

Rosita would always hang out with the nerds back in school. She might not fit into that stereotype, but she has never been popular. She was too individualistic, blunt and poor to hang with the cool kids. That Eugene became her best friend is not a surprise. She always liked intellectual types who can teach her new things, people who aren't involved in gossip or drama.

As a kid, Rosita was a total tomboy. She liked playing soccer and repairing things. That made it hard for her to connect with the other girls who weren't as interested in that, so she mostly played with boys, but as she got older, she found that she often got underestimated or treated differently because she was a girl. But she never hid who she is or tried to change.

She likes reading romance novels and poetry. Rosita prefers to read in Spanish because it has more emotional weight for her. It's not easy to come across good Spanish books in the apocalypse, so Rosita is happy whenever she finds something, and even happier when someone picks up a good Spanish book for her on a supply run.

&& unheald // rosita.​

Corners of lips began to pull upwards at SWEET words — Siddiq is such a gentle soul and there’s not many like him left in the world. RARE to find and at risk of easily being snuffed out — but he’s still here. No one in this world has made it this far without both seeing and doing unspeakable things, but Siddiq is still good. It doesn’t seem to have tainted or tarnished him. There was something about that Rosita liked, something she ADMIRED. She wasn’t the same. She had let the world get to her, though she knew it hadn’t beaten her. That was one thing she was certain of, she knew that she was capable, knew that she could handle herself.

“ Yeah? ” Head tilted with her question. Perhaps she was admittedly indulging herself. But whatever this was — she liked it. She appreciated how kind he was, how GENTLE. Rosita was more used to the rougher side of things, Siddiq was a welcome change. “ Why don’t you tell me more? ”

To say that he loves her? That plays out clearly in his eyes, in the tone of his voice. How he regards her with nothing short of affection and adoration each time he peers into her eyes. One glance at him when her back’s turned and that same adoration is tripled when she isn’t looking. She’s his world and he’s content with that. What started out as two friends blowing off steam grew into something deep. They’re there for each other. They care for each other. There’s nothing in this world he wouldn’t do to keep her safe. To make sure she knows she’s cared for and loved. And he knows she’d do the same for him. Nothing would be the same without her in his life. So, when he lets go a little bubble of his thoughts--about when he knew she was someone he wanted to let in? Closer than he’s let anyone in years? He simply let the words go rather than hold them back..

Her reaction is uniquely her. A smile eases onto his expression and he scoots in and places one hand on either side of her shoulders, bracing himself against the back of the sofa they’ve been sitting on watching the fire dance inside the fireplace. Squinting as if he’s got to strain to find the words, he grins as shoulders hitch the best they can. “Must’ve been your charm. Either that. Or how good you are with a gun? Sort of feel like I’ve got my own army when you’re around. Kind of hard to pick between the incredibly sweet person I get to see behind closed doors or the bad ass everyone else gets to see. I mean.. They’re both pretty great..”

💕Favorite ship for the muse?

I kinda like the idea of Maggie/Rosita. I feel like I'm the only one to ever consider shipping them. I hope I'm not.

💔Least favorite ship for the muse?

This is an awkward question because I don't like several of Rosita's canon ships. I can't see Gabriel/Rosita. That's my least favorite I'd say. In my opinion they have no chemistry. My own portrayal of Rosita never goes for him.

💢Something about the muse that annoys you?

Nothing about Rosita annoys me. At least I wouldn't put it like that. She makes mistakes and she has flaws just like all the other characters, but I love her or I wouldn't write her. What annoys me is that the writers never put her in good relationships. She goes through several and they are all either bad or end up bad. After losing Abraham, she loses Spencer, then Siddiq and the Gabriel one is just weird to me, it felt forced.

💡 What inspires you to write the muse?

Rosita is never really seen showing much vulnerability on the show even though she suffers a ton. She's lost family, she's watched her ex being beaten to death in front of her and she was forced to look at the bloodied murder weapon right after that, for a while she lost her best friend. Yet you hardly ever see her breaking down. It's definitely part of who she is. Rosita is a hard woman. But everybody has their breaking points and I would really like to explore how she is feeling because as well as she can handle herself, Rosita is still human.

And I would like her to be more involved with the rest of the group. Asides from Abraham and Eugene she isn't that close to anyone. They After Abraham's death, after Spencer's death, after Eugene is taken, she has no one she is really close to.

📷 Favorite picture/screencap of your muse?

I love this icon of her.

📝 Favorite headcanon for your muse?

I have multiple.

Rosita's childhood dream was to become a nurse. She's interested in medicine and loves caring for people. That's why she picked up those medical skills she learned from the others in her old group so well. She actually would have gone to nursing school after completing her military had the outbreak not happened. For as hardened as she may be, she's very caring. She's just not good with words. She will show it through actions.

My other headcanon is not the happiest headcanon and it's canon-implied, as the canon mentions she was raised by a single mom who taught her to fend for herself, but I would like to add that I think Rosita was mostly relying on herself from a young age. Her mom had to work a lot and they couldn't afford babysitters, so as soon as Rosita was able to (which was earlier than most kids) she would prepare her own meals and find jobs to financially support her mother. She also had no one to help her with homework or anything like that. Things didn't change after her mother died when she started living with her nephew and her older brother. She then also had to watch a kid in addition to dealing with school and working. And it's unexpected to many but in school she was kind of an outsider. All of those things played a part in why she survived. She has always been more self-suffiient than most but she is also good at playing her part in a team.

😒 Is there anything canon about your muse that you ignore?

Her death. My version of Rosita survives. Her daughter gets to grow up with a mother.

🔥 Unpopular opinion about your muse?

She's an underrated character. She gets objectified too much and not seen for who she is.

⌨ What’s a situation you’ve always wanted to RP with the muse?

I would love to play her during the Negan era. I'm mutuals with a Negan blog, so a confrontation with Negan, a face-to-face conversation between the two would be thrilling. And I think Rosita could bond with Maggie. Everyone has suffered but those two have gone through very similar things. Also, they were both part of GREATM. I just feel like there is so much potential.

🎭 How similar are you and the muse?

We are both emotionally guarded, blunt latinas but other than that we aren't similar at all.

 hc   + romance

Abraham was the first man Rosita loved. Before that she had relationships, but all of them were of casual nature and anything she thought of as romantic feelings fizzled quickly and was more something akin to shallow infatuation. She's never found anyone she matched with. Often she felt like a mother in relationships. Abraham was the first who felt like he was an equal. The two of them have known each other for a while before getting together. And it wasn't Abraham who made the first move, it was Rosita.

Rosita's favorite fabrics are silk, quality leather and suede. Her least favorite would be rough and poor quality leather and scratchy wool.

✑ + 3 (Rick Grimes)

Send in “✑ +” a number and I’ll share that many headcanons I have about our muses!

Rosita and Rick are unfortunately not shown to be interacting much on the show outside of Rick giving her orders, but I headcanon that those two are closer than it seems. I don't think they talk all that much about personal things, but I think that Rosita and Rick work together a ton behind the scenes. Going on supply runs together or discussing strategy.

I think Rosita and Rick trust each other fully. If she needs to pull off something risky, Rick is her person to confide in and vice versa.

She definitely helped Rick get a birthday gift for Carl before. Maybe even with arranging a small party for him at Alexandria so he can feel normal.
