How would the shadow group react if Graves got hurt? Like almost died hurt?

(Goin down the asks lalala)

Tw: a bit of blood in first three pages; Graves got hurt pretty badly but nothing too graphic

Prior to this, I hc Graves never having been hospitalized for that long. His Shadows hate seeing him so still and quiet.

on fictional victims

(mouthwashing spoilers!)

so this is sort of like my 'on genya safin' post (which you can read here: https://www.tumblr.com/xblackmariahx/766319845622038528/on-genya-safin) but with more characters so yay!

so, as i said in that post, genya is my favorite not because of her trauma, but because she overcame it. however, recently, i got really into mouthwashing, and as you can probably tell by my profile picture, my favorite character is anya. anya didn't achieve great things or poison her abuser or even live to get justice like genya did, but i still like her. so why's that?

i think, looking back, i really do just like victims, no matter their ending (as long as they're well-written, ofc). everyone has different endings, and i think it's relieving to see that your story doesn't have to end one way.

let's take inej ghafa. did inej kill her abusers? no. did she get justice properly? no. however, she still fought men like them, and took down the brothel that gave her such trauma. sure, i doubt she even knows the names of the men that raped her in the menagerie. i doubt she even remembers all their faces. but she did live to fight, and that's an interesting ending.

i think genya safin is what every victim hopes to achieve. she achieved great things in spite of her scars, she got justice, and she was able to confront her abuser. she's an all around inspiring character, and i think that's an ending everyone hopes for.

and then there's anya. anya didn't do any of that. in fact, anya killed herself before even seeing jimmy die. i think something about that, about seeing a character who didn't achieve this great things and overcome her trauma, is comforting too. in my opinion, characters like these sort of say that it's okay to be hurt because of your trauma. you're going to hurt. you're going to be scarred, and bruised, and you'll hurt, and that's okay.

i guess what i'm trying to say is just flat out advice: try to be genya, but it's okay to be anya.
