WHY DO YOU DO THE THINGS YOU DO? there is only one answer to this question. why are your hands stained with red blood, why are your dreams plagued with death, death, death?
ENDURANCE
IT IS THE ONLY THING YOU HAVE EVER KNOWN.there's nothing but this, nothing but the sound of your heart beating against your ears, drumming, drumming, drumming.
DECAY
YOU'VE LOST PIECES OF YOURSELF IN THE PROCESS. sometimes you don't know your own reflection in the mirrors. you don't know your eyes, you don't know your lips. there's something missing inside of you.

disclaimer
this is an independent for a fandomless original character i do not claim ownership and am not affiliated with daisy ridley, olivia wilde or any other face that may be used. this blog is multi-verse, multi-ship. every thread is independent from the other unless previously plotted.
general
01.this blog is plot oriented. as stated on my 'sidebar', this blog prefers plotted threads and pre-established interactions over non-plotted, non-established ones. relationships are amazing, be them whichever!
02.nsfw & triggering content will be present, though all will be accordingly tagged (respectively #nsfw and #[trigger] //). the likelyhood of there being smut on this blog is extremely LOW.
03.this blog is private to mutuals, meaning that i will only interact with those that i follow & follow me back - this applies to IC & OOC interactions. please don't like my starter calls or send me memes if we are not mutual (headcanon requests are okay).
04.if we are mutuals, know that i wish to roleplay with you in some capacity. feel free to ask for my SKYPE.
05.i will not interact with CIS GENDERBENDS or WHITEWASHED CHARACTERS. there are plenty of posts about why both of those are generally Bad, please don't ask me about it.
06.please cut your posts. i like to have a clean and uncluttered dashboard. in the same regard, i am more than happy to continue a thread from an ask, but i ask you to MAKE A NEW POST.
07.stealing is not condoned in this blog, everything from icons, promos, theme to headcanons and meta were made by ME, with a lot of hard work involved. please do not take and claim as your own.
08.if you prove to be a bigot in any way, shape or form i WILL UNFOLLOW. no remorse, no second thought. i do not, and never will, accept such behaviors.
shipping
09.please don't ever assume a ship. scarlett is a very complex, very private characters. shipping is hard with her.
10.please don't force a relationship. as stated above, chemistry comes before anything. if our characters don't click, then they don't click. please don't try to force me or guilttrip me into it.

if you have read all the way to here, i am very, very thankful. my name is MARINA (cis woman, she/her pronouns), i am 20 years old and attend university. replies on this blog are incredibly SLOW, and i will give, most times, preference to NOXTEARS, VOLCHNOK, RXGIUS OR XBETTERFEARED. it's nothing personal, only a result of extensive developing of said relationships. i know i may sound extremely harsh and mean here but i swear i'm not!! i've been developing this character for the past 4 years and she means the absolute world to me, and i'm happy to interact wiht more people!

MORAL ALIGNMENT : NEUTRAL GOOD

000. there will be flowers scattered through the floor of your house, red and yellow and white and pink, and your mother will order you to tread with care as you walk to your room. she’ll put together with sculpture-like precision bouquets for other girls and serve them coffee with her ever tired smile. later that day, the hole in your window will be gone and the leaking in the bathroom too. your mother will come home at three in the morning, and finish sewing the red scarf you begged her to.
001. one day, when the snow starts to fill the ground up and the cold winds start to blow, a tall man with stern features and a stink of corruption that eats through his bones will come through your door. if you’re lucky ( and you never are ), your mother will hold your body against hers and guard you jealously and lovingly. if you’re not, he will extend a golden, golden hand, and say : ❛ MINE. YOU’RE MINE. ❜
002. you’ll move to a house tenth-twice the size of your own, tenth-thrice as cold and the warmth of your mother will be filled with the wintriness of your father the tenderness of your mother will be replaced by the hands of your father around your wrist, throat, arms. you won’t be enough : you will never be enough.
003. you will learn, by the time you are fifteen, how to survive under his circumstances. you will discipline yourself to be harder, sharper, smarter, better than anyone, better than your brother could ever be. you will train your words and your tongue and turn yourself into the daughter he’s ever wished for, into the perfection which he demands, and do so all of it for, and solely for, him to extend his golden, golden hand, and say : ❛ CLEVER GIRL. ❜
004. one day, you’ll find yourself clinging into someone else’s warmth and thinking it is your own : you’ll hold your body against theirs and share bits and pieces with them, enough but not too much, and most of that you’ve longed for will be there, will be with you ❛ SWEAR THAT YOU WILL NOT LEAVE ME. ❜ . you’ll learn, finally, that nothing ever stays, not with you. you’ll ruin everything before it can ruin you.
005. your body will grow cold like stripped fields. you’ll shed your warmth and softness like a snake sheds its skin. you’ll wrung out of you all that does not serve, until you are better, harder, sharper, smarter, colder.
006. one day, when the snow starts to fill the ground up and the cold wind starts to blow, a tall woman will stern features and a stink of brutality that eats through her bones will look at your reflection in the mirror. if you are lucky ( and you never are ), she’ll blink and think nothing of it. if you’re not, she will extend a pale, pale hand and say : ❛ YOU’RE STILL HUMAN. ❜
007. you’ll cry out to the skies and pray to the gods you have never believed in to not let that man ever come through your door. he will always come.
he should have just stayed in his room. he shouldn’t have cared when lottie said it was an emergency. that it was about anna. that was the thing. he wished he didn’t care about her. he wished he didn’t. then he could have moved on, he could have probably stolen lottie away from adam. he was charming enough. but there was anna. burning her place in his mind. and now there she was in front of him in all her glory, hovering over some poor american. he looked at the way her feet bled ( who treated her? who told her to take a break? did she even listen to them? )
he stared and stared and stared before he just couldn’t take it. he couldn’t take the yells of the men, cheering her on and booing her. treating her like some animal. he couldn’t stand the way they looked at her. the way HE looked at her. he hated how much they underestimated her. how much they saw her as simply a machine. she was still human. “ it’s not checkmate until his heart stops beating. “ he said in a cool tone, his blue eyes staring at her as if he was searching for the woman he knew. not this doll that HE insisted on her pretending to be. “ and look at her anyways, sh won’t take the final punch. she hardly has the strength to stand up on her own. “he was taunting her, riling her up–cause that was what he was. he was the gasoline to her fire. the one that made her burn so bright.
HER ENTIRE BODY HURTS. she could see the trail of blood that dripped from her feet ( she spent too long dancing last night —- it soothes her, somehow ) & from the inside of her thigh ( a poorly stitched cut — she didn’t care enough to stitch it properly. perhaps she wanted it to bleed out. ) . she is surrounded by SHARKS, all coming round and round and round, longing for a TASTE of it. she won’t give them the satisfaction of seeing her lose. not now, NOT EVER. she’s leaning in closer to the american, lips curved into a WICKED SMIRK when she hears his voice —- she’d know it anywhere, anytime, would recognize it throughout the centuries. somehow, she has always known. ANNA feels her blood boiling inside of her, running through her veins and burning all of its path. OH, HOW SHE HATES. OH, HOW SHE LOATHES.
she spares him but a glance — QUICK, but enough for him to know, for him to UNDERSTAND: shut up, shut up, shut up. i hate you. what are you doing here. i hate you. leave. ( i don’t want you to see this, i don’t want you to see me like this, not like this. please, please, please. ) . she feels the american’s leg kick her ankles before flipping them, his hands wrapping against her neck. she can feel a SCREAM trapped inside of her throat, but she won’t let it out — you are made of MARBLE. you will never break. ❛ SHUT UP, VOLKOV. ❜ she says, words filled with hatred, words filled with longing. anna wraps her legs around the american’s waist —– it is all too easy.
