if i had to guess yeah not in the same way the OTO is, or anything grand like that he doesn't seem to have the mind or the patience for long-term damage but the same way a flash rain can be dangerous
i could be wrong, but that's the impression i get what about you? you said he reminds you of someone?
I don't think you're entirely wrong he does... just a little but enough to make my skin crawl a little I mean he's just another man who thinks WAY too highly of himself but he does remind me somewhat of my high priest of my coven he lied to me about my dark baptism and he's probably lied to so many other women and young boys
ugh the men who lie to one person that much tend to lie to everyone, I think especially when their egos might as well be their spouses will you be okay?
I will be I won't let any man manipulate or lie to me this beck or mysterio (MYSTERIO? I swear that's a comic book name) sounds like he's riding high on his horse my bet is he'll fall off it soon?
i think i've heard that name before, but i can't remember where. mysterio i mean. but if it's any consolation he's very easy to rile up pretty sure i'm on his hit list now (´‿♡)
if he actually does something to you? you tell me I'm not going to let some egotistical go around harming people he's supposed to be a HERO what the hell
Yeah (technically speaking, it was Earth, but we all lived in the City, which was their name for New York City, but that's just semantics I suppose.) Most of the other survivors that were still here are gone just in the past couple of weeks
Yeah. Tony Stark, his whole company liquidated. He arrived about a month after I did. Senator Hundred, I got notice of that a few days after it happened. Doctor Chilton, too. I don't think I would call many of them friends, but I knew them.
[ Her brother, too... and Kanaya, only a month and a half ago. Others, maybe, but it's hard even for her to keep track. ]
[ It takes her a minute or so to respond. She imagines even if they weren't friends, if she had known these imPorts for that long it still must be difficult with them gone. Consistency is still important, she supposes. ]
I didn't know dr. chilton was was gone we only spoke a couple of times but I liked him I'm sorry though it must be a weird feeling regardless
[ It takes two, three minutes for this message to arrive, typing dots coming and going in intervals. ]
i came back last year, in february about a month before the nuclear strike on heropa when time was rewound, she spoke to us and everything with atropos came in the months after that
maybe she knew i was more likely to tell you what was happening and the consequences to recognize the cycles you haven't yet seen, and the voices you've never heard
or, maybe i'm only here to support the stronger pieces a flank to get you to the end of the board
but you have gathered right about them they refer to themselves as sisters but they're not like people, or like the greek gods who share their names i don't think they have anything like parents
there are too many myths about them I did some reading when I first arrived and discovered there's one myth that their mother is nyx goddess of the night supposedly even zeus feared her
yeah there's a lot of myths, but they're not REALLY the greek goddesses you know? we've had enough people claiming to be those passing through to sour the theory, at least and i'm pretty sure nobody's version of Atropos is a sun-absorbing earth-devouring snake Clotho isn't a marionette in myth Lachesis isn't a trickster
it would be simpler, i think, if they were that way, easier to explain for sure but when people get too hung up on the stories, they can't see the reality anymore

I think I'll be okay, though
If I can survive Atropos, I can survive some idiot in a cape.
But, I'll keep you posted, if you will for me?
no subject
right I almost forgot... you told me you were from the other world
the place called the city?

It's
yeah, it's very weird
i mean, i've left too, more than once
but with the way things are now it's
strange, I suppose

i can't imagine i'm that interesting, or that valuable a pawn
i'm not really much of a "hero," either
anything else i could say just sounds silly

I'm certainly no hero
you don't have to say it if you don't want to but I'll try to understand if you do

I'm sure there's more to it than that
from what I've gathered the fates are an ambiguous group of sisters
