#marcus 003

[kira-aminu]

Location: Kira's house, beach front Starter for: @marcusbishop

Ever since that day at Santa on the Sands, Kira had been carefully trying to piece her life back together. It was nine years too late, but after realising just how much she had been holding onto her feeling for her ex and their former relationship, she knew she had to make a change. Gone was the Kira who had been the life of a party, the girl who had been kind, funny and sassy and instead she had become a shell. Her friends had rallied around her, but she knew she had to make significant steps. Therapy had proved a saving grace and slowly, her life was finding some balance.

No longer was she in the shop seven days a week, any hours she could. She took one day to work from home and one day off and she had truly never felt so relaxed and focused. As she pressed the palms of her hands together in front of her chest, Kira took a deep breath, blowing it out slowly just as their was a knock on her front door. Hopping to her feet, she quickly smoothed out her workout clothes as she walked over to the door, pulling it open with a smile.

The smile faltered as she saw who was standing on her porch and she could immediately feel some tension settle in her body. She hadn't seen him since that day at the beach, she'd actively avoided him whenever she saw him in the street and hadn told her staff not to tell her when he was in the shop. But there he was. "What are you doing here?"

self-para; 001 ( the mines )

( the consequences of this. ) where: the mines

( tw: blood, injury, fire, burns )

it had been reckless, and stupid, but theus had never been known for his consistent smart decisions. he could be reasonable for only so long - eventually, he got bored and craved chaos, chasing it like a shark tasting blood in the water. still... he maybe should've thought of his daughters before he got himself killed.

he felt the magic tracing his skin, like the cold, sharp edge of a knife being drawn across his arms, his neck, his throat. he had only a few moments, his eyes going wide and his hand flying to his throat before the magic sliced through his skin and hot blood flowed. it spurted from his wounds in a shock of red, dyeing the wool and cotton of his clothes, and coating his fingers pressing against his neck.

shit shit shit shit shit SHIT SHIT-- relax. think. don't panic. use your head.

stop the bleeding.

with his free hand, theus resisted the panicked urge to grab at his neck and reached into his pocket, bringing out his lighter. he sank to his knees, hitting the snow hard but he barely registered the pain as he fought to keep calm. he clicked the lighter, and the second he saw the bright spark and a flame, he activated his magic. he dropped his glamour, needing his full focus, revealing his long, pointed ears and the burning orange, amber and red of his eyes.

his breath was shakey, but that was enough to make him realise the wound wasn't deep enough to kill him... yet. he got the small flame, focused it small and hot, white hot, and brought it to his neck. he gritted his teeth and groaned harshly, near screaming behind his teeth, as he held the flesh of his sliced neck together and burned the wound closed. the flame moved around the circle of his neck, cauterizing himself, as his nose burned with the stench of burning flesh and his eyes watered from the sensation. he leaned into the pain to withstand it, almost drunk on it.

when the flame made the full circle, he took a harsh, shuddering breath, the flame going out as he leaned forward with a guttural, pained groan. sweat dripped down his face, but he saw the hand that gripped the lighter was dripping blood, and he remembered the magic in his arms.

fuck.

with a heaving sigh, he clicked the lighter again, his thumb slick with blood and slipping each time. eventually, his thumbnail caught, breaking as he managed to click it. he took the flame, small and hot, and burned his coat at the shoulder sleeves, ripping them off. his shirt underneath was soaked. he repeated the motion, pulling off the blood-damp sleeves to reveal the wounds on his arms. a circle on his each, an open line from his wrist to his elbow on both inner arms, stopping only at another circle just before his elbow.

the wounds were deep enough to bleed, but he had time. he had to have time.

he took the flame, and split it into two. he had to work fast. he took a deep, shuddering breath. he wishes he had something to bite down on, he worried he'd crack his own teeth the way he ground them, clenching his jaw so hard that veins bulged up his temple. the pain was twofold this time, but he didn't falter. he burned his own flesh again, cauterizing the wounds closed to stop the bleeding. the sound that left his lips when he finished was weak, pathetic, almost a sob. he slumped forward, head resting in the dirt, as he held his arms close to his body.

he hated how he bowed to these fucking mines, and whatever entity lay deep within.

he stopped another sob from leaving him as he breathed, hard and deep. he was slick with sweat, and coming down from the high of the pain. with weak, feeble movement he sat up, then got to his feet, shaking and stumbling like a newborn fawn.

he dared to lift his eyes to stare at the mines once before, swallowing once, then turning and walking away, back down the paths to the woods. he intended to go back to where he'd left marcus, but had to stop and take a seat on a fallen tree covered with moss. the wind whispered in the trees, but he noticed that the birds didn't sing here. he looked down at his arms, resisting the temptation to touch the fresh burns. his arms shook from the effort of holding them up.

it hadn't been an attempt at his life. it had been a warning shot. if that thing had wanted to kill him, it would've cut deeper, deep enough to slice his windpipe. instead, it just wanted to taunt him.

i could kill you if i wanted to.

with a soft sigh, theus picked himself up off the fallen tree, and continued back down the path. he needed to see a healer for this shit.

Winter 2024

“WATCH OUT INDIANAPOLIS — you're about to get... absolutely SOAKED!”

The booming voice of a man in Steve’s bedroom stirs him awake.

Letting out a ferocious yawn, The King rubs his eyes free of the annoying crust in the corner of his sockets, flopping around one more time before doing his routine stretch.

“Google,” Steve commands. “Turn off the TV.”

The TV immediately switches off. It’s nothing personal to meteorologist Marcus Bailey, but if Steve ever needed an accurate forecast of Indianapolis, all he would have to do is look outside his penthouse window. And that, after brushing his teeth, is just what he does.

"G'morning Indy,” he sighs happily on his balcony before going back inside.

Steve then makes his way over to the kitchen to fix himself some breakfast.

“Google,” he calls out again. “Open the curtains, please.”

Google replies:

“Opening curtains. Good morning — Steve.”

"Google, what's my schedule looking like today?" "Google, text Dustin." “Google, what is the weather looking like in Nevada?” “Google, turn on my shower tunes.”

The best thing about not living with Eddie Munson anymore, is that Steve can shamelessly sing Amy Winehouse in the shower without being hounded about it.

“We only saaaid GOODBYE, with WORDS!” Steve sings, confidently off-key. “I died a hundred times! You go back to her, and I goooo baaack toooo…”

"Scanning fingerprint...”

an automated voice announces at the entrance of Steve's walk-in closet.

Swish...

The door slides open. Sauntering his way inside, Steve ventures for some slick black athleisure down to the shoes, his usual musky cologne, and some matching sunglasses (despite the gloomy forecast prediction).

Black. 🎶

Steve Harrington is ready for the day.

---

"Google, make reservations for 3 people at Tony's Steakhouse at 7pm please."

All Steve had left to do for the day now was grocery shop. Which was always a hassle. Because sometimes, the store doesn't have the specific brand he's looking for so the shopper has to opt for an alternate version. Or sometimes, the shopper assigned to him that day chooses produce that is nearing its expiration date making every fruit in his bag a mushy mess. It doesn't happen too often, but it sure feels inconvenient as hell when it does. There are worse problems in life though, so Steve really can't complain.

*Ring, ring. Ring, ring*

The very distinct and custom ringtone has Steve bolting across the room to answer the call. One of his best friends was on the other line.

"Yello?" he says into the phone.

"Hey, it's Shy Girl," comes a voice. "Eddie and I are pulling in."

"Pull off to the side. Valet's got it. I'll send you guys up."

A bottle of cabernet sauvignon a la Steve awaits the pair when they make their way over. Consider it a Tony's pre-game.

"GameWorld stock is up 4% today,” Steve's buddy, and owner of Hellfire Gentlemen's Club Eddie Munson announces as the two clink glasses. "I don’t have much faith in it though, figure I’ll get my pie slices from actual grocery stores. Like Meijer.”

“Everyone's always gonna need groceries,” Steve points out. "Definitely. Just don't day trade. Not now."

"Ooh, you hear that, Eds?" Shy Girl nudges him. "You gotta be careful where you put your money."

"I gotta be careful with my money, period," Eddie smirks. "You're a danger to my pockets, angel."

"Oh but you love me," she says.

"Yeah," Eddie gives in, grabbing his lover's dainty digits, trailing his fingers across hers, and rubbing the glistening rock that took up most of her left hand on the distal side. "I sure do."

"I'm just... so proud of us," Steve sappily reflects. "So much has happened over the past two years and we've all come so far."

"Yeah," Shy Girl agrees. "And it's about fucking time we celebrate."

"I agree," Eddie chimes in, raising his glass once again. "This weekend trip is going to be... one for the books."

"Viva Las Vegas," Steve toasts. "Cheers."

"Viva Las Vegas!"

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON

Black and red.

They're the two colors that occupy your closet the most. But of course, after graduating from Washington State University (or Wazzu, for short), you expected nothing less.

You could do with some more sequins though, you think to yourself as you pack your bags.

"What do you think of this, Sweets?"

Peering over your shoulder, you see that your best friend, Elle has started festivities early, managing to hold two glasses of champagne in one hand, and six-inch stilletoes in the other.

"Can't take the party out of the girl, that's for damn sure," you respond.

When you left Seattle to attend WSU Pullman, Elle was your only friend in business class. Mainly because the class was predominantly for dudes, but eventually you found out that you two have a lot in common.

Elle is everything you would want in an older sister figure: she is both book smart and wise, she is sexy, and she eats men for breakfast. And, now that she's about to celebrate the launching of her lingerie business (along with her Dirty 30s Era), and you're about to enter your new-grad era, you two are hitting up Las Vegas to go ham together one last time.

It's all so bittersweet. You owe everything to the Warrens, having taken you in when you were a lost undergrad. It also sucked quite a bit not having a support system after graduating high school. You and Elle were all each other has. Which makes this inevitable separation so much more painful.

"Are you sure you're okay with Vegas by the way?" you question. "I know since the split, being surrounded by gorgeous girls 24/7 can kinda be triggering.”

"Don't worry about it, love," she shakes it off. "The past is in the past. This is a new era of me."

Cheers to that. Clinking your airport-pregame champagne glasses with one another, you raise a toast to yourselves, celebrating how far the two of you have come over the past four years.

"To friendship."

"To friendship."

"To being elegant and educated."

"To elegance and education."

"And to being girl-bosses for the rest of our lives."

You giggle as you raise your glass of champagne even higher.

"To being girl-bosses for the rest of our lives," you two take a sip at the same time. "And no matter how near and no matter how far, we're always gonna be besties."

"I love you, Sweets."

"I love you too, Isabelle."

[mr-laveau]

-hands you my Love listener and also all my actual love ily booboo-

One. They have been called Love and/or Asset and will name themselves Ariel.

Two. Unfortunately, we already know all there is to their backstory 😭

Three. They’ve played around with the idea of lots of aesthetics and have settled on a sort of pastel, casual look with academia elements.

Four. They’re gender-fluid, so they switch from male, femme, and androgynous presenting on a whim.

Five. (Now that I’m really reading these questions, I’m so sorry for sending you an Android 😂) Marcus is an anime nerd in the worst way, so Ariel was deffo made with East-Asian features.

Six. They were made to look in their early twenties.

Seven. Slender and androgynous.

Eight. A Scorpio, though I’m not confident about that answer, I’ll admit.

Nine. Anton, who is the only person they feel likes them, and James, who is the only person who they feel respects them.

Ten. They’re still discovering hobbies and interests but so far, they’re enjoying listening to music and learning piano.

Eleven. Hmm, I think it’d be interesting if it was Psyche, Greek Goddess of the Soul, since it could be argued whether they have one.

Twelve. RedactedAudio 💕

Thirteen. Ariel is a sex-neutral/averse ace, so when they do sex without the obsession-code, it’s done with curiosity and the partner’s pleasure as the main priority.

Fourteen. Hmmm… that’s a new question for me. I think they actually don’t know yet.

Fifteen. I am Not a Robot by Marina and the Diamonds. It unironically makes them feel a lot of things.

Sixteen. Lowkey Natalie Portman’s character in Ex Machina.

Seventeen. Almost like a stock photo or a model’s shoot. They are symmetrical and physically attractive, beautiful almost, but there’s something impersonal about the stiff way they hold themselves and the lack of emoting on their face.

Eighteen. They really want to meet a dog. EDM music confused them and holds up appeal. They wish they could try coffee and lemons.

Thank you, my love 🧡

LaVeau-gue - design #003 - Asset/Love - Ariel - Lexi Sun

You are most welcome Lexi, always an honour to get to work with my first redacted friend, especially when it comes to this bean, Ariel! I still remember a few of the details from our previous conversations in regards to how you see them so I hope this does them justice!

Design Notes

Approaching Ariel's design, I had already had remembered conversations with you in regards to previous inspirations you'd mentioned for your take on Love. I also added in a bit of my own inspos to the mix to see what would take

For Ariel's design I wanted to keep in mind the solid collection of notes you'd written up so I could incorporate as much as I could whilst also condensing the design so I could make it simple to redraw (as I do with some of my other designs). My main focus when getting into this design however was to create a human and android Skin similar to how I'd made my Asset, Prim.

A big inspiration I had for them was Jenni from My Life As a Teenage Robot and Hatsune Miku so I decided that white metallic plates reminiscent of Jenni would work and blue hair similar to Miku would tie things together. Additional, I also chose to include colours from the PM title cards to establish that visual parallel .

As for clothing, I followed your instructions as best as I could, creating an androgynous fit that was pastel and had hints of academic elements! On top of that, I incorporated musical notes as a reference to the singing Ariel from the Tempest and the little mermaid does and to reference her proclivities for piano music. To reference back to your choice of Psyche as a god to represent Asset, I included butterfly designs on their overalls. To balance the whole pallette I combos the PM pallette and the pallette of their clothes which ended up being pretty readable overall! Another fun fact is that I also ended realizing that Ariel shares a clothing pallette with my Caelum!

Wanna have your listener designed by me? Check out my rules for LaVeau-gue and send an ask my way! Also, currently I am looking for money to replace my computer so any interested parties who wanna help can check out my commissions!

when someone mentions the diaz family, it's nothing but good things for that family. of course it would be. they were the poster family of what the american dream was all about. the family immigrated from dominican republic in the early 80s, with a hundred dollars in their pockets and but a dream. the dream for a better life. jaime and marisol had always dreamt of living their lives in the united states, but when manuel was born, they had another dream now, to give manny the best life they could, and that was to move them to a country where anything was possible.

and that's what manuel managed to do. growing up from his humble beginnings and learn that with a bit of hard work and dedication, any dream was possible. and growing up with someone who had everything, he felt like he needed to keep up with all the things he managed. marcus was always the charming one, the trendy one, the king of the school. and manny always felt like he was just his lackey more than he was a friend. but that didn't stop manny for pursuing things he enjoyed, even if marcus wasn't into it, from being the best in whatever sport he was in, to getting a solo in the school and church choir, to ending up getting the lead role in every musical and play he had auditioned for during school. he was dream catcher, a perfectionist, an idealistic person.

the struggles came when he applied to schools, and finding out that he was an immigrant himself. for most of his life he was told that he was born in the bronx. manuel's whole life was in the states, in new york city, and discovering that he couldn't legally get a job or apply for student loans because he was not from here took a toll on his whole identity. no one knew else knew about this, not even marcus, except for esteban chamberlain, marcus' father.

after the news, he didn't stop though. he kept working hard, getting accepted to one of the best schools. his eyes were set on lawrence university. it was the most prestigious school that he knew he needed to be part of, but he knew that he would struggle to afford the school. luckily he got some money with some scholarships, but it wasn't enough. he had enough for a year, thanks to his parents saving up, but he still needed three more years worth of tuition, so he had to find some way to get the money. and so he found himself escorting, and then eventually finding a man that would eventually helped.

he managed to do all this under the books, until marcus discovered the truth. he knew about his status, he found out that he was doing escorting his freshman and sophomore year, and he knew all about the guy that he was sleeping with for money. their relationship had strained, that manny was tired of feeling less, and the night he died he had an argument with him. after his death, it was him that took over the reigns. he was next in line for valedictorian, he was given so much love after marcus died, seeing as he was the closest with him. and now he was the new it boy. it was cool, but the last thing he wanted was for people thinking he had something to do with his death.

○ ′ 🌙  –––––––––––––––––––  007

        CONNECTIONS

childhood friend // competition - marcus chamberlain was always on top. even though he was a close friend to him, manny felt like he was always under his shadow, never shining because he would always take the spotlight from him. and it didn't change when they went to college. but now that he has passed away, he is getting the spotlight that he deserved. but the question is, did manny have anything to do with his death?

childhood friend, found family - someone who genuinely felt a connection with. he even had a little crush on, but never really did anything because of marcus. he hopes now that marcus is gone, things with them could evolve into something stronger.

ride or die - this is a friend he had met at lawerence university, the one that became his true best friend, unlike his former frenemy. how they met was through an event, and then ended up having a few classes together as well, but they ended up hanging outside of school events and classes, which made their relationship even tighter.

current hookup/fwb - it's not serious, but just someone he has fun with. it could go either two ways, feelings may get involved and manny runs or it continues to just be fwb type deal.

more to come.

The Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour - 003 06/01/23 Defy TV 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM EST Filmed at the Good Time Theatre at Dorney Park in Allentown, Pennsylvania

SEGMENT ONE (NINE MINUTES):

- Sudu Upadhyay welcomed fans to another episode of The Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour on Defy TV on this, the first day of June. Larry Zbyszko said the summer is right around the corner, which unfortunately means StarKist Charlie Tuna and the rest of the punks on parade are going to have even more free time on their hands with high school out of session.

- The Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour intro aired set to "Black Swan Lake" by Janko Nilovic.

Starboy Charlie vs. HC Loc Starboy Charlie defeated HC Loc with a spinning kick. (3:42)

- After the match Starboy Charlie continued to attack HC Loc. He said that Loc is an example of everything that is wrong with wrestling as he's been living off a year long run in the dying days of ECW for over twenty years. He claimed that HC Loc has been getting booked as a nostalgia act since before Starboy was even born. CORE agents Aaron Arbo, Andy Harner, and Trik Davis came to the ring and escorted Starboy Charlie to the back. As they did, Marcus Mathers, Brogan Finlay, Kylie Paige, and Billie Starkz entered the ring from the crowd and began to put the boots to HC Loc. Larry Zbyszko left the commentary booth brandishing a folding chair and headed toward ringside. The attackers pleaded with Larry to enter the ring which provided enough of a distraction for HC Loc to roll under the bottom rope to safety.

SEGMENT TWO (SEVEN MINUTES):

- In a segment filmed at the Lehigh Valley International Airport, Derek Dillinger and Ziggy Haim were filmed exiting their terminal. Three people greeted them at their arrival; from the conversation we learn that Derek and Ziggy have apparently just returned from the Cannes Film Festival where Derek's latest film, Dr. Vibes Rises Again was acquired by Bleecker Street. Ziggy Haim told them they even had a poster mocked up. The poster is soaked in saturated oranges, pinks, and purples; in bold white lettering, "THE FINAL FILM BY KUBRICK." below that "DENIRO." below that "ARQUETTE." and then the title. The camera panned to reveal the group Derek and Ziggy had been speaking to, wrestlers Dom Kubrick, Al Deniro, and Katie Arquette. Dom Kubrick is surprised his name is so big on the poster, he was just a production assistant. Derek tells Kubrick they couldn't have made the film without him. Dom also is curious as to why it's his final film. Ziggy explains that they are transitioning into television now, The Production have signed an overall deal with Defy TV to develop projects and appear on the Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour.

folkstyle (Shaw Mason, Tim Bosby, and Hunter Holdcraft) vs. Aaron Roxas, Johnny Moran, and Luca Mancini   folkstyle defeated Aaron Roxas, Johnny Moran, and Luca Mancini with the ripcord lariat from Bosby on Roxas. (4:04)

SEGMENT THREE (NINE MINUTES):

- At the Von Trier ranch, we see Franz Von Trier sitting on his pickup truck tailgate when he is approached from off screen by a young man holding a pitchfork and saying "that should be the last of it, pop." The young man wipes sweat from his brow as Franz introduces us to Kirk Von Trier. Franz said they've all had to pick up a few more chores around the ranch lately with his boys Dale and Keith preparing for their CORE debut next week. Franz said it will be an honor to be in their corner next week. The camera pans to show Dale and Keith glistening in the sun as they run the fence line of the Von Trier ranch with the family dog at their heels.  

Giant Baba Yaga (with UltraMantis Black) vs. Kayla Sparks Giant Baba Yaga defeated Kayla Sparks with the running neckbreaker. (3:21)

- UltraMantis Black handed Giant Baba Yaga her customary post-match cigar but Baba appeared agitated with UltraMantis. UltraMantis calms Baba down, he understands Baba Yaga wants real competition and promises to get on the horn and line up a challenge for her at Pillow Park in historic Pillow, Pennsylvania.

SEGMENT FOUR (EIGHT MINUTES):

- Back from break, we join Prince Nana in The Throne Room. Nana said no one is more deserving of visit to the Throne Room than his guests this week, "The Queen of House Rose" Raychell Rose and Queen Aminata. As a Prince, Nana said it is his honor to bend at the knee before the "Queens Of Wrestling." In this segment, Raychell Rose and Queen Aminata announced that on June 10th at The Panic In Pillow Park, Rose and Aminata will be teaming with The Goddess Athena to take on Billie Starkz, Kenzie Paige, and Kylie Paige.

- From the CORE news desk, it's Daphne Oz with the Coal Region Roundup. Oz said that you just heard it and it's officially signed, on June 10th in Pillow, PA it will be Athena, Raychell Rose, and Queen Aminata vs. Billie Starkz, Kenzie Paige, and Kylie Paige. Also just signed for that card, UltraMantis Black has confirmed that Giant Baba Yaga will go one-on-one with Japanese women's wrestling star SAKI. Daphne also announced that as you heard earlier, Dale and Keith Von Trier will be making their CORE debut on next week's episode of The Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour and they will have quite the challenge as they square off with Marcus Mathers and Brogan Finlay.

SEGMENT FIVE (EIGHT MINUTES):

Titus Alexander vs. J Boujii (with Shayla) - Before the opening bell Shayla was escorted from ringside to the back by CORE officials and representatives from the Pennsylvania State Athletic Commission. No explanation was given, but Shayla is currently with child and perhaps their safety was in consideration. Titus Alexander defeated J Boujii with the Chaos Theory. (5:16)

- In what can only be interpreted as a show of force, as the match progressed Starboy Charlie, Marcus Mathers, Brogan Finlay, Billie Starkz, and Kylie Paige made their way out from the curtain and lined the aisle. After the match, Titus Alexander got on the microphone and said he gets the message, there are five of you here today and eight or so in total and he's all alone. But what they need to understand is that while they still don't have a name, what they do have is a whole lot of enemies they've made since coming to CORE and that he's not the one that should be looking over their shoulder. Titus Alexander defiantly walked down the aisle past the encroachers.

SEGMENT SIX (FOUR MINUTES):

- Promotional consideration paid for by the following: Bar Keepers Friend: Cleaning stainless is painless. When your bathroom is a disaster, clean it faster. Available in powder, cream, or spray. Wiffle: Wiffle Bat & Ball sets available wherever fun is sold. Nothing curves like a Wiffle Ball! Brer Rabbit Molasses: Discover the flavor secret of Molasses! Available in three varieties, Blackstrap, Mild, and Full Flavor.

- A brief interview aired with Marcus Mathers and Brogan Finlay promoting their match next week with the Von Triers and they were joined by Kylie Paige who will also be in action next week.

- Sudu Upadhyay bid farewell to the fans until next week and threw to Larry Zbyskzo who asked for this time to apologize for his actions earlier in the show. Larry Zbyskzo told the viewers he truly regrets his actions earlier in the day; that he should have taken that steel chair to the ring far earlier in the match and wrapped it around the head of Chore Boy Charlie.

MAY 3RD, MONDAY, LATE EVENING. THE CASINO. OPEN TO FAMINE (1/3).

Everyone was looking at her. Jessica could feel the weight of their gazes, hot and sticky on the back of her neck, as she stood near the front of one of the Hippodrome’s VIP meeting rooms, wanting to crawl out of her skin. She didn’t know what was eating at her most: the sharp sense of betrayal, the embarrassment, or the shame. Because that was not the way it was supposed to happen. It should have been her.

She had always been the cousin who didn’t fit into Famine. She was the only one who had started as an Angel instead of a Power, wanting to prove herself while knowing that there was an exit if this world ended up not being to her liking. But she had made her choice, been promoted to Power, and done her work, never saying no. And she had thought that she was doing so well. Turning bad press over a bombing into a love story. Assisting Kitty with her new project. Finally stepping out from under her brother’s protection, because it would be better, wouldn’t it? To be his sister and love him without letting him have control over her, no matter how much of it came from love?

So why did it feel like she had fucked it all up? 

The words of dismissal were barely out of her uncle’s mouth when Jessica exited the room, the click-clack of her heels cushioned by the crimson and gold carpets of the casino, lush and gleaming. On this floor, cordoned off from the rest of the public, there were multiple bathrooms set aside for Famine, and she searched blindly for the furthest one, locking the door behind her and turning on the faucets as she leaned over the sink. One shuddering inhale, a slow exhale, repeat—she wasn’t going to cry, but fuck it if she let someone see it happen—and as she forced calmness into limbs tense with nerves, the doorknob turned, followed by a knock on the door. 

No. Jessica ignored it; they would find another bathroom, whoever they were. But then came another knock, two—and her temper flared up as she strode across the bathroom, flinging the door open, and snapped, “What part of ‘occupied’ don’t you understand?”
