@fksleep asked; "I don't like to lose control."
city of the beasts prompts
He'd been acquainted with snapping, a discarding of composure that had taken months to carefully craft and put into practice. It wasn't a frequent enough occurrence to cause lasting concern, but such moments still trundled by with a sufficient amount of regularity to enable the Spider to weigh in on concerns that the stranger across from him had shared. And it's for that exact same reason that he adopts a logical perspective, rather than lampooning the masked male for not keeping a cool head at all times.
"Believe it or not, that happens." An unavoidable inevitability, as far as his opinion was concerned, better addressed than avoided. In Miguel's case, he could gauge the erosion of his own self-imposed restraints from the way that his limbs began to tremble, a tell-tale sign indicative of a building of uncontainable energy, fed by a quickening pulse, too powerful to ignore.
The thought of giving vent to destructive urges saw the Spider sway uneasily on the spot, form a sturdy mass of corded muscle and extensive height, wrapped in a hard light suit. Back home, he ran a tight ship, discriminatingly discipling dissenting voices as much as he trapped and recovered displaced anomalies. But when it came to governing himself, the futuristic webslinger was substantially less prepared. When he fell apart, it wasn't self-contained; he usually took others with him, unable to intervene until his energy was exhausted, and he became spent and useless.
No man should be subjected to such a compromised state.
"It won't be pretty, but you'll learn from it.," he continued, emphasizing the necessity of growth that lay ahead. It was a form of continuous improvement, one that still had a few lessons left to teach Miguel himself. "That way, you can be more prepared for the next time that you feel yourself starting to slip."

022, a gazebo while it's raining. / for tara or rose wilson.
Meme / Always Accepting!
There was something to be said at least for how consistent Gotham City is, even flung through time and awaiting the Titans coming to get her back, Ravager has not had too bad a time trying to navigate the streets and stay out of trouble. Though, she didn't avoid the attention of the new Batman indefinitely.
"I swear up and down I'm not here to cause you any trouble," Her legs dangle from where she sits on the half wall dividing the gazebo and the pouring sky. Unfortunately Gotham's gloomy weather patterns had also held. "Hell I'd love to clean some up while I'm here, you looking for any help, Bats?"

@fksleep sent: "I like you. You're scary though. " for Tatsuo Yamashiro
she couldn't argue with that-- while gotham had it's fair share of frightening figures, most of them didn't wield the sword containing their late husband's soul. go figure. still, she couldn't muster up a smile or chuckle, only an unamused raise of her eyebrows beneath her mask.
' should i dress like a bat to be more approachable? '

| @fksleep what’s it like over there?
“ a lot brighter. ” it's a joke. mostly. it was true metropolis was a lot lighter than neo gotham, a shining beacon casting shadows from across the bay. “ why do you ask ? thinking about making the move ? ” manicured nails press an earring through a pierced ear. “ hate to burst your 'the grass is greener on the other side' bubble, mister mcginnis, but there are a lot of crazies in metropolis, too. ” she would know. she was one of them.
“ but if you're ever in the mood for a visit. ” she turns in her chair [CARMEN in bold, white letters written across the back] to look to him. “ you can always stay with me. ” she punctuates her point with a wink.

❛ i’ll get over it. i just need to be dramatic first. ❜ from @fksleep various things spoken in an adventuring party part 2 || accepting!
Artemis' clear shock is evident behind her mask, though her surprise is hidden behind an expression of harshness quickly enough. It is not often they have what appear to be boom tubes appear in Gotham City, and she only knows a few people allied with her who would create them. But none so openly.
She had been avoiding a particular looking thug in hopes of slipping away quietly, but there would be no chance of that now with such a loud bang and a tunnel of light emitting a stranger behind her. She had blinked at the words, but refocused herself and slowly draws her sword from behind her back. Her ears prick and she can hear the heavy steps of the thug against stone.
She leaps out and her hand whips outwards and she clanks the person on the side of their head with the dull side of her blade, watching as they crumble to a heap. Her gaze immediately switches back to the unknown stranger who had appeared, eyes glinting.
❝ Boom tube not your normal way of travel? ❞ she asks, an edge to her voice. She steps forward, back into the darkness of the alley so she's not seen in the openness of the street. She has not re-sheathed her sword, for if there was ever one thing Crusher Crock ever taught his daughters, it was to never leave themselves defenceless, especially to the unknown.

2 and #3…?
Atieno can't help but be .. a bit pleased. Is it a tad indulgent to enjoy such a sight? Perhaps, they are opting to roll with it for now.
"Well, that's certainly a way to make an impression...it's appreciated but truly you making yourself a bit known is good enough for an acquaintanceship at least." A bit formal, but hey - making introductions can be an interesting experience now and then.

" You ever just want to ring the old geezer by his neck and drag him out of the cave? " unprompted.
"I agree that Bruce needs to leave his cave more often, but less so when it comes to the dragging part." He knows what Terry means, though. Sometimes, it feels like nothing short of physically overwhelming Bruce will unstick his arse from the Batcave chair. "Do you have any ideas that don't involve violence? Because I would be happy to assist if that's the case." / @fksleep

"i've never heard that name."
city of the beasts sentence starters | still accepting.
"He's the don's second cousin. Not removed, though I guess Falcone thinks he should'a been."
Mary took a quick, darting draw on her cigarette and then turned her face away to exhale the thin line of smoke, half nicotine and half warm breath in the cold air. She could feel the weather prickling at her tear ducts.
"He owns—" She paused to gesture with the glowing tip. One warehouse, two, three. "—All those. Took them over two weeks ago, fresh off the boat." A dark little laugh. The towering buildings were lit up, even this late at night, hives of activity along the waterfront; Mary could hear the sound of machinery and men over the lapping blackwater against the concrete.
"If I tell you any more, what's in it for me?"

��� no way, it's your birthday? schwaay. happy born day! whaddaya want, while the night's still young? ❞
“ thanks ! ” she replies before thinking, it's funny how she had a lot of stuff in mind before her birthday but now that it's here … she doesn't know what she wants. it takes her a second before speaking again. “ hm … i don't know. nothing's really coming to mind. ” she pauses again before gasping. “ ooh ! i know, some more jewelry, i'm overdue for some more bracelets and rings. and … a cake. ”

“You’re not a monster.”
A PAUSE LINGERS IN THE AIR, SILENCE LOUDER THAN ANY OTHER SOUND IN THE ROOM; SHE PROCESSES HIS WORDS, TASTING THEM LIKE A BITTER SHOT, TILTING HER HEAD JUST EVER SO. A parody of a smile threatening to break the grim line of her mouth, lips the color of a wilting / dead rose; rotting [ THE SMILE NEVER QUITE REACHES THE EYES, ] skepticism & something else beneath, if one were to squint; but the cynicism outweighs everything else, ❛❛ NOT A MONSTER, YOU SAY? THAT’S AWFULLY CUTE, ❜❜ saccharine / sickly voice oozing like hot honey as she takes just one step closer; gaze piercing, A CHALLENGE REALLY…
❛❛ YOU’RE A SWEET KID; YOU REMIND ME OF SOMEONE; I’m getting grossed out just thinking about it, actually. I’VE BEEN CALLED A LOT OF THINGS IN MY TIME; HARLOT, FREAK, THIEF - THEY TEND TO STICK WITH YOU FOR A WHILE, ❜❜ like thorns jabbed into the side, skin healing over & form scars, permanent reminders. ❛❛ But… I appreciate the sentiment; there’s certainly a part of me that wants to believe that maybe- ❜❜ but no, it’s too much.
She’s been around long enough to know that things aren’t that simple [ & FOR HER, THEY WON’T EVER BE; THAT TRAIN DEPARTED LONG AGO, ] ❛❛ EVENTUALLY, you’ll learn that too… ❜❜ A rare moment of clarity, becoming lucid in this nightmare; Selena steps back, gives the boy space. Her posture remains guarded, perhaps even hostile, BUT SHE’S NOT CHALLENGING HIM ANYMORE, ❛❛ TELL ME: ARE ALL YOU BATMEN THIS SAPPY OR AM I JUST GETTING THE SPECIAL TREATMENT TONIGHT ? ❜❜

@fksleep asked: [ needs ] sender asks receiver what they need
Non-verbal Angst || Accepting !!
It isn't often the Raven finds herself in such bad shape, normally very equipped for combat situations, but this was one of the very unfortunate scenarios where she was on the other end of a beating.
Luckily; she wasn't taken out with a bullet, she was able enough to make sure she wasn't the one who got flatlined. Upon being asked what she needed, she takes an inhale & holds it as she stands herself up, Masuyo would've been worse for wear if she had cybernetics, & she's thankful for that.
❝ Nothing. ❞
For a fee; Gideon could fix her up, surely. If not, then she'll just go to the hospital, she could afford it. Besides, if she was going to make a name for herself as the Raven; then she couldn't look weak.
❝ - I can walk it off. ❞
Miles would take care of her when she got home, she knew that.
#ic .#fksleep#answered#( she already doesn't want people to worry about her as masuyo#she can't have people worrying about her as her solo persona 😔 )

"I can't say the words out loud, I don't use bad language."
Zora tilted their head a bit in interest. They could be prone to a bit of bad language themself but it was clear that in this situation they had to be a bit more cautious.
"Sounds like there must have been some rather foul language if you can't repeat them. The things that people are capable of saying and doing to each other is really.. astounding I guess.
Any particular reason they were using that kind of language."
