       ❝ listen up, new kyle, ❞   yes, old kyle IS still in the room and, also yes, catra does see how his shoulders droop and how lonnie grits her teeth and rogelio puts a hand ( claw? ) on old kyle’s back. does she care? ( does she care that they care so much for him and so little for her; that the only person who ever truly cared for her turned her back and left catra to fend for herself ?? ) - ha. no way.   ❝ i need you to get scorpia and meet me back here in five ------ and don’t let her distract you into being late, got it? ❞        // @mtsmll for reasons.

       ❝ keep talking like that and i might just change my mind, ❞   she scoffs, but she’s hiding behind those wall she’s built for herself. the ones only she had ever been allowed past, only to have them cave in when she left a gaping hole in the bricks that had been so carefully laid.      still, catra nudges elsie with her elbow as if to give away the fact that she's come too far to leave the other behind now.

       ❝ you don’t get it, adora, ❞   she hisses. catra knows she’s being lied to -- by shadow weaver, by hordak, by lonnie and rogelio and kyle    ( well, maybe not kyle ),    she understands that the horde is bad and that she, by association, has been bad all along too. but adora? catra’s always known she was different    ( good )    but she could never have prepared herself for adora to lie to her like all the rest.   ❝ there isn’t a place for me in your little.. fantasy princess world. ❞   they were supposed to rule etheria together, couldn’t she see this isn't even close to the same thing? arms cross as she hugs herself -- stubborn.   ❝ why do you keep trying? ❞
