I. MAMA, WE ALL GO TO HELL.
(May 8th.)


[It's mother's day, three o'clock in the morning, and Faith is at the cemetary. Which really just goes to show the miserable bitterness that wells up inside her every single time this day comes around. It's been... two years now. No, three. This bitterness doesn't stop welling up in her chest.

Her presence in the cemetary is likely only noticed due to the fact that she put a bullet through the head of an undead spectre that crawled its way out from the guard. It was a magic bullet. Works like a charm. There's a satisfied hum coming from her. If anyone else is here, she tries not to notice. She walks her way to the furthest corner of the graveyard and clears a spot in the dirt. She reaches into her coat and pulls out a bottle of vodka, shakes it up a bit and drops it in the clearing.]


Nightwalker said it'd help to pretend I was talking to you. For some reason. So I gave you your favourite to represent you. You're welcome. Not sure they even have booze in hell. You must be hating it.

You remember when I was eight? That was a year after you came and picked me up from your asshole relatives. This time, that year, it was mother's day. Your first and my first, and I guess I was excited 'cuz I'd never had a mom before, and I kept telling Alex, or Malice, whatever you wanna call her now. I kept telling her you were coming back for me, and I guess I stopped believing it was true until you actually did.

The day comes, and the night before you binge drank and got super wasted and got in a fight with our "roommate" at the time, who left the next morning never to be seen again. So you're hungover, miserable, ashamed, and really not feelin' it, right? But I wanna take you to ice cream, 'cuz I'd saved up enough money for it from stealing shit from the other kids at school. I only had like five bucks, but I figured that'd be enough for the both of us. Not like grandma ever took me.

You're hungover, and hating it, and hating that I'm making you do this, and hating me for bothering you when you really just wanna lay in a corner and die. But at that point, you still pretended. So I asked you how yours was, that you had to pay for because it turned out five bucks was only enough for mine. [She pauses, glancing upwards.] No, that's right. I paid for yours, you got one scoop, you paid for mine, I got three. God.

Anyway. I ask you how it is. And you smile. And you tell me it's lovely. And you thank me, and tell me you love me. [Her voice falters here and something bubbles up in her eyes and she realizes she's crying, just a little. Well, maybe more than a little.] So when I try to remember all the good moments we had, before you... before you fucking died. Why is it that it's just that that I remember? That one bitter memory where I don't even know if you were lying.

Did you even tell me you loved me? Or did I just imagine that like I imagined having a friend? [Faith wipes her eyes, smudging her makeup a bit. She lets out a sigh, shuddering. It's cold.] Anyway. That was my eulogy for the funeral you never had, mom.

Enjoy the vodka, mom. [She stands up, rolling the bottle over with her foot for a bit, before stomping it and shattering the glass into the dirt, leaving the ground wet with running liquid.] You always loved it more than you loved me.

That didn't help at all.[And with that, she turns away from the makeshift grave and walks away, staring at the ground. If anyone was listening, she'll glare briefly but do nothing else herself, not unless prompted.]

II. SHE WILL ALWAYS BE A BROKEN GIRL.
(May 10th.)


[Come the morning and Faith is... changed. She only notices when getting out from her sleeping position, which is less a bed (too comfortable) and more well, the couch. She gets up and almost immediately, her wings start getting caught on the cushions.

She finds a mirror, and comes face to face with the sight of what she's become. A succubus, with hair that's even longer and thinner, sharp teeth like a thousand knives in her maw, a forked tongue that extends frankly a bit uncomfortably long, and a long tail that coils up to her chin, moving like another arm.

And wings. Leathery bat wings. There's a lot of ways she can react to this. And she definitely does a lot of freaking out in the privacy of her own house, but by the time it's her favoured time of day, aka night, she tends to be less ashamed.

She can be spotted flying across Trench, and might drop on a rooftop near you and grin down at you. She is, notably, still not wearing much in the way of clothes. You try finding something that fits three new limbs. And there's an aura around her that attracts the attention of people around her, whether that's just because she's hot remains to be seen, but regardless she's hard to miss.

Or, later at night she'll be seen around the clubs, dancing and partying and flirting with just about anyone. At this stage, the demonic appearance is... lessened. Her face could pass for human, if it weren't for the horns. She wants to be wanted, to be craved. She's addicted to the sensation. She doesn't cover the monster, not much, just... well. She might as well be pretty.

Or alternatively, she might be at Sapphora. A bit more thoughtful, her tail flickers nervously as she stares at the staircase leading to the higher floors, sipping at her drink with a nervous chatter to her teeth. This physical form is still... confusing. She's not sure where exactly she got a glass of darkblood, but she's not exactly complaining. It's... delicious. Is this what it was like for all the vampires she killed? She feels bolder, stronger.

But still too weak to go upstairs and acknowledge the elephant in the room.]


III. TONGUES & TEETH
(May 15th.)


[She's back to normal for now, and one night she goes on a trip into the Trenchwood. She's itching, all over her body, it's like a siren call to anger, to violence, to the hunt. She disappears off the path at some point, but you might hear the faint cackle of her laughter.

If someone were to go and investigate, they'd find her standing over a beast. An ugly thing with long limbs and milky white skin and needle-like fingers, human looking, with a pinched up wrinkled face, all growls and hisses and whines. It still begs. It still pleads. Or maybe that's just what she's looking for.

There's a person in there, or there was once, and Faith is a Slayer. There's people in vampires, people who could be saved, people who were victims once. Faith is a Slayer. She's not a healer.

She's born for the kill. So she settles for grabbing the beast by the throat and hauling it up to her level, and she tosses her axe aside. There's something wild and feral in her tonight, and she just won't stop fucking itching. Maybe she just needs her fix.

That's what the rational part of her brain is telling her as her teeth sharpen into fangs and she drinks her fill from the beast's neck. She doesn't know that she's been spotted.]


IV. DAY TO DAY
(May. Wildcard option.)


[For the rest of the month, Faith does her job. She tends to patrol, even when the beasts are weaker. And she can be spotted in the middle of the night, with a crossbow in hand walking down the street or through the graveyard or through the woods or even on the beach. Sometimes she takes a minute to throw rocks and skid them along the surface of the water.

Sometimes she'll stop in bars and sit in a booth on her own, order something and enjoy whatever entertainments on. She's not as aggressively extraverted as she might be when she's partying, but if anyone wants to talk to her, they're free to.

And maybe once or twice, she'll engage in an underground fight, bet gems on it, and beat the living shit out of her opponent. Whether you come to her impressed at her ability, mildly outraged she didn't hold back a little, or even to offer a round in the ring, she'll be around.]

It would depend on your definition of vulnerable, really - for someone like Tavion, this isn't so much a vulnerable moment, as one of...potential. Her emotions practically sing to Tavion. A massive, choral swirl.

"To understand, of course," she says, with a wide smile. "To find out just what it is that drives such fury. It's even more powerful than the desires you had the other night, and they were very nearly intoxicating."

Her smile is practically feral itself. Such powerful emotions are cause for celebration amongst her generation of Nightsisters - they can shatter bonds, alter the mind, unleash a truth from within. She's far and long from home, but this moment draws her like a moth to a flame.

"Let it out," she urges. "All of it. Let it stand under the moonlight and scream defiance at the world."

I already love this thread.

She's slammed back against the tree, a sound escaping her. One of delight, surprise, and perhaps just a tint of arousal. Bold. She likes bold. Faith has no idea who she is, the power she commands. And yet, she challenged her like that, so fearlessly.

She'd have made a good Nightsister.

"Of course I want it out," she said, with a slight giggle, "and hmm...perhaps later."

"But for entertainment?" Her eyes flash, and her head pushes forward, the Force summoning up from her seemingly endless wells of it - oh, how she understands your rage, Faith - the fingers pushing back from her throat, the air feeling thick as her strength comes to the fore.

"What you have is a beautiful thing, the power to break chains, to shatter the bones of those who would grind you down. Forged by life, honed by conflict. Sharp, itching away at you."

A hand came up, slowly. "Shall I show you mine? We can let it out, together. We can hunt together, as sisters of the Night should."

She may be certain, but Tavion's perspective is different. She believes in what the Greeks would have called the Furies - the Erinys, the Dirae to the Romans - vengeance, given wing, given form. There is a poetry in that sort of rage to her - because she knows the power of honing it.

Her own would be nothing without that. Oh, the things she could teach Faith about the sheer power of those feelings. Perhaps. She grins at everything Faith says, briefly licking her lips when she pulls back.

"Oh, of course," she says, with exaggerated care. "If you can keep up with me."

Oh, definitely not disappointing in the least. She moved as well, calling her power to her as ever she had - breaking into a Force-enhanced run. That speed her into the underbrush, more than quick enough to keep up - it would appear as a blur to others, but to her it was as if the world itself slowed down. She moved sure-footedly, launching herself off of a fallen heavy branch and upwards, swinging from another and then kicking off from yet another, twirling in the air.

Entirely unnecessary. But there is a dark joy in these moments. And she intends to follow those joys, those thrills, to the full.
