the return of the revenge of just rp it.

how to play.

1. Drop a comment with one or more of your muses. It can be empty if you want me to make a scenario, or you can toss one at me. Prompts are boss. (a word, song, lyric, picture, phrase, a meme prompt, anything). Specify if there's something you do or don't want, otherwise I could throw anything at you: AUs, shippiness, awfulness. You've been warned, son.
1b. If you want to continue a verse we started in another thread somewhere, specify it in the comment or subject line. I'd be down for revisiting any of those.

2. In the subject line, you can specify any of my muses you might want to play with (including OCs, who have their own list), or you can ask me to pick someone. No muses are off-limits except for those that have no icon uploaded on the list. Otherwise, I'll pick or randomize someone.
2b. Muses I would really love to play right now, in case you are having a hard time choosing: Hawke, Hannibal Lecter, Selina Kyle, Fox Mulder, Cigarette Smoking Man, Serafina, Pepper Potts, Lois Lane, Jacen Solo.

3. just rp with me. if something jives really well, maybe we can continue it in another one of these later, sort of like a super casual verse. if it doesn't, it doesn't.

Strong feelings from a man who is not Shadowkind himself. In my experience, such sentiments are usually stirred by some personal investment of some kind.

[villainous]

Yes, I understand you had considerable personal investment in the matter.

[ Remember your 2-day engagement. Lex Luthor does. He delivers it flatly, not smugly, and with no judgment attached. Just a stated fact. ]

I suppose you could say my father inspired me. [ A tight smile finds its way to his lips. He relaxes his hands on the arms of his chair. ] He believed that greatness had a cost, and that I would disappoint him with my refusal to pay that price with the lives of those he deemed lesser.

[savemyself]

So it is about proving a point to your father?

[ He sees that trap you're walking him into, Isa. How she believes it would be a petty reason to intervene in the life-or-death struggles of Shadowkind in this world. So he makes a gentle correction to frame it in a different way. ]

It's about paying back the debt he accrued in the way he did business. I want LuthorCorp to stand in my image, not his.

[savemyself]

And you want my help in cultivating this image.

[villainous]

I want your help making sure that image is a reality. [ Goddamn Isabella stop trying to make openings for this to be about appearances and not his ~good heart~ ok. ]

[savemyself]

I might be interested. Perhaps a trial period.
