disjointed rambling, woo \o/threnos_oideOctober 23 2007, 09:32:26 UTC
Holy God, this may get long. :(
For a chick with no real past beyond five years ago or so, T sure does tangle what little she remembers up with the present! Because of this, her relationship with Chas is both reminiscent of something old, and very new. She frequently gets the impression that, while he's got his fair share of fucked-uppery (hello, dude used to torture and murder folks a lot), he'd like to save her from herself and her powers -- some of this is projection, because she certainly wishes, occasionally, someone would rescue her from wanting to be around death the way she does. However, their mock power struggles are really, for her, genuinely playful -- this is, all things considered, a very equal relationship, which is nice
( ... )
Chas sort of dives headlong into everything except relationships, so this is kind of New Territory for him.
Yeah, he's a... pretty damn damaged guy, really. I think I've mentioned the whole compartmentalizing he does. All of the bad, violent shit kind of has to be separated for fear it'll bleed into the good bits, and so forth. Anyway!
Baby-stuff doesn't really make him that uncomfortable, oddly, but Nate definitely does. He's not too keen on the thought that she might be comparing the two.
The whole deal with the General, man. It tore him apart. I think the whole insta-attachment has something to do with all of that stress during the General thing, idk. It was one of those "it just... happened" things, I guess. It's really, really unlikely he'll get bored with her, not that he's going to turn down sex. He's insanely attached - hence the, uh, rarterritorial from a guy who normally wouldn't have paid it any mind.
Also, WORDS. I hope they stay together, too, because the compatible-crazy is <3. ilit too

Elizabeth is a nice lady, and (as we have observed) she and T have some issues in common. T does consider her the closest female friend she has, even though their life experiences are obviously wildly different, and T has never been remotely upper-crust in her life. Even pre-amnesia. She trusts Elizabeth, which is more than T can say for almost anyone -- she feels there is a degree of, eh, I want to call it naivete there, though. Like--she wants to protect Elizabeth, in a certain way, because there's all sorts of nasty-ass stuff out there on the street that has nothing to do with monsters or the apocalypse, which is a whole different ballgame.
She would like to help soothe Elizabeth's empty nest syndrome, but doesn't really know how except by......idek, stealing a baby. Also, I don't know if you've noticed, but T's gotten a little better-spoken for spending time with Elizabeth -- this is something she's always capable of, but it makes her actually try.
"on the street" is a total different kind of worldliness to what Elizabeth has -- while she's not an innocent by any stretch of the imagination, she's led a pretty specific life, with specific dangers.
hahaha stealing a baby. that would make me lol, but I think only Todd is crazy enough to do it.
ALSO, I hadn't really noticed, but now that you point it out, I see it, y.
Threnody thinks Hermes is awesome; she distrusts god-types as a rule, but she feels he is an exception to this for freely offering his help and generally being terribly nice to her. The idea of benevolent deities still kind of surprises her. Obviously he can be tricksier than that but >_> she also thinks he seems sort of sad sometimes, but isn't sure it's her place to ever mention it.
NEXT UP: NJOKI, and this one will be moar complicated.
Threnody thinks Njoki is a little bit like her, but maybe less materially self-destructive, and more confident in some ways. She envies Njoki some for getting to use what she is, and her ability, with less fear of ...horrible insanity (as far as she knows) -- T can't do much with hers without fear of addicting herself to death again. The deal with the General was so bizarre that T ended up demanding a way out before she ever really got a chance to see what he had to offer her, so she'd like to confer with 'Ki on the topic outside of brief journal discussion. Also, she thinks whatever 'Ki does is really, really interesting, and the energy attached to it is so different, but she's aware that it's not exactly socially acceptable to ask 'what are you, what is this supernatural stuff'.
T thinks Grif is a smartass. This is acceptable, in her book. That dear_mun conversation is pretty indicative of how I suspect most of their interaction will go: T is vaguely threatening, Grif is a smartass, T is more threatening in her weird way, Grif points to crazy helmetware, T steeples her fingers evilly and waits, Grif...decides to lock down the base JUST IN CASE, because bitch is crazy.
She would not approve of the torturous vigilante shenanigans, although flat-out killing that boy was probably the best bet.
T is pretty forthright in her summaries about what she thinks of Ginger, but what isn't there is some lingering mistrust post-attempted killing. She really did think she'd have to murder (or at least attempt to murder, idk) a 15-year-old kid, and that didn't sit well with her. She doesn't get a lot of the rules associated with being a werewolf, but she also finds it sort of aggravating when Ginger in her lack of social experience (I'm loath to call it naivete, precisely) attempts to regulate the Nexus by werewolf rules.
Occasionally she feels like there's a Were Club of which she is not a member, and that's weird to deal with, because...there are 'evolved humans,' but she's really the only mutant (........aside from Scaevola, which we, uh, aren't counting, and Kevin whose powers are even more fucked up than T's).
