perhaps their fear was never of misfortune; perhaps it was only that no one would behold it.

𝓧: SEARCHING FOR A DEVIL // lawrence fairbanks x isabela d’alessi

she comes to think of him as her american, though he’s not hers, not really; she sees him twice during the year, three times, perhaps, and they talk of a time when they will be in the same country always, when they will get away, one day, one day. they take the morning train to paris and dance over the seine, they flee to the countryside, to the alps, to florence; he returns to the states, and he has his women and his work and his ambition, and she remains and has her mother and sisters and stefano, on loan to her from god. all things are still possible, then; she can believe in one day, she can believe in everything.

[...]

they are fast, too fast, and the world cannot catch them. they’re the dreamers, they are the lost generation reborn, everything is before them. she follows him to states, studies languages at his university because she’s an art for it. lawrence’s connections make it easy. lawrence’s money makes it unnecessary. you’re a kept woman, her sister tells her, you’re a whore. an american’s whore. ( we can’t all be so charitable as you are, living with luca for free, isabela says. i so admire your humanitarian work. they do not speak after that. ) she does not return to rome. she languishes in lyon, geneva, anywhere but. she fears that it will burn her; she fears she will enter the holy city and burst into flames.

— and the bible didn’t mention us, not even once. [ x ]

any scars?

everywhere, she has no self preservation instinct

• on the inside of her right palm/knuckles from where she grabbed a blade ( from her first kill; she was 18 )

• on her right side, running deep across her rib cage towards her naval ( from the first night of the reaping; she fell on broken glass in a shattered truck window with her full body weight. this one never heals properly and gets reopened multiple times during the holy war — it’s a weak spot/hypersensitive area for the rest of her life )

• a jagged slash across her face, running diagonally from her forehead, over the bridge of her nose and down to her jaw  ( post-collapse; joseph tried to stitch it, but it’s another wound that never healed correctly )

the rest are mostly negligible; her body was pretty broken in the holy war and never fully recovered, there’s no point trying to name every individual scar it left on her

any tattoos?

• lilies and vines intertwined from the backs of both of her hands up to her shoulders & chest. more sparse on her right arm; on the left they go up to her neck ( all thin black lineart )

• the initials JS, also on the left side of her neck, just beneath her jaw ( by the top of the highest lily )

•  minimalist roses on her chest/right shoulder ( thin black lineart, mostly over her collar bone )

• wrath tattoo across her upper breasts ( she got it voluntarily; not crossed out because i. she believes she’ll have reached atonement when she sees her family successfully through the gates of eden and not before but ii. she’s spying on the resistance and can’t very well have a crossed out sin when they know what it means ). 

• a small eden’s gate cross between the lily & vines on her right hand

• a serpent twined with carnations on her left hip ( thin black lineart; spans her upper thigh to the base of her ribcage ) 

the rest are small/negligible/left over from the stick and pokes she gave herself badly in junior high to break dress code; they’re mostly faded or covered by other designs

any piercings?

only two in each ear

other notable features: 

freckles across her nose & shoulders; during the reaping and the war that ensues bruises and cuts and wounds become perpetual fixtures.

random fact:

here’s her pen tag, please don’t make me do this for free

she saves all of the canon fangs for hire from getting blissed or tested by jacob and keeps them as pets, much to john’s eternal chagrin — she gets away with it by pointing out that she’s keeping them out of the resistance’s hands, even though she doesn’t bring them hunting or into combat situations. they were already familiar with her since lyra was posing as a civilian to spy on the locals for more than six months before the arrest, so it was a more natural switch.
