[ it's been a difficult few weeks, and it feels almost like everyone's still trying to hold themselves together. there's a quiet hush over the unrest, which means that it's absolutely time to get some shit together. ]

Oh, hello.
Just a few thoughts that I've put together, I suppose- prior to my arrival here I had a rather good sense of the goings-on within the very fabric of reality. While I certainly can't indulge myself in such feats since I got here, I can say with confidence that the multiverse loves patterns. Something that's simple to predict. For instance, there are some of us here that seem to mirror a similar set of circumstances with one another while still coming from different universes. (See: Tony Stark and Stephen Strange.)
With that in mind, I thought that there simply must be something similar that links us all together in a thread of commonality.

Come now-
You all must have noticed.
Everyone's hot.

[ mystery solved.

it could be that he's just bored. ]

Comments

[harmistice]

Nothing I have said cannot be backed up by fact.
Not that any of you know very much about all of that, sticking your noses into a conversation you do not understand.

If the truth offends you, then look away.

[jettisons]

I didn't see any truth.
Just crap some guy is spouting to make himself feel powerful in a place that doesn't care about him.

[harmistice]

That's because you do not know her.
Or me.
Or the galaxy we come from.

And you should refrain from making comments about things you know nothing about.

[jettisons]

I know everything I need to know about her, and I know your type.

[harmistice]

I doubt that very much.

time for bellamy to project all his authority issues onto hux

[jettisons]

Want me to give it a shot?
I'm guessing that position of authority is all you have going for you. You need it to make you feel superior to everyone else, and you'll screw other people over and cause whatever suffering you need to if it means you get to keep it.
Maybe you feel threatened by Rey, or maybe you just can't handle that someone you think is below you is daring to insult you.
Either way, your title doesn't have any pull here, so you're screwed.

[forcevisions]

Oi, that's bantha fodder and you know it.
You don't know the first thing about my parents.

[jettisons]

It doesn't matter. He's an idiot.

[forcevisions]

It matters.
My parents were good people.

[ she's clinging to the sad deflated life raft that kylo ren threw her out of pity: "they sold you to protect you." don't make her examine it. ]

[jettisons]

I believe you.
He's trying to get under your skin. It doesn't matter what the truth is to him.

[forcevisions]

I know.
He's a terrible person.
I just can't stand to see him talking about them at all.

[jettisons]

Hey. What matters is how you remember them. Judging from how you turned out, that's all the evidence anyone else needs to know he's full of shit.

[forcevisions]

Yeah.

[ well, they didn't really have a hand in that. rey feels weird now. but she's accepting his comfort for what it is. ]

Thanks.
You don't really have to do this. I can handle Hux. He's more a nuisance than anything.

[jettisons]

I know you can, but sometimes it's good to know people have your back.

[forcevisions]

It is, isn't it?

[ she can't deny, this is making her tear up a little. like, the people she doesn't know are clearly just here for the drama, but there's people who do know her who are having stronger reactions than she expected, and that's making her tear up a little. ]

[jettisons]

Yeah.
Now go kick his ass.
I'll patch you up if you need it. No judgment.

[harmistice]

I know they left you on Jakku to die alone.
Anyone born on that wasteland isn't worth the blood spilled to birth them.

Call it whatever you like.

[forcevisions]

[ wow look at all this narrative space for a heartwarming anti-classist tale of how people have worth regardless of family legacy and socioeconomic status. ]

That's not true.

[harmistice]

Is that why you fight the assertion so fiercely?

I think not.

[forcevisions]

[ again. all this narrative space to talk about how people have value no matter where they came from, and no one's a waste of space, but instead tros gives us — ]

They left me on Jakku to protect me from people like you.

[harmistice]

How fantastically that worked out for them.
