𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐈𝐒 𝐌𝐄𝐓 𝐔𝐍𝐖𝐀𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐋𝐘,  with the forced patience and subtle irritation of someone who’s been here before.   Well,  not here,  PHYSICALLY,  but he’s seen that look before.   Who’s kid is this wandering around all alone?!

          ❝ I read the books two or three times growing up, ❞    he answers dismissively,  as if that answer makes any sense at all,  given his appearance.   Still,  he’s glad to have moved on from the staring phase.    ❝ Don’t know if I’d name an animal after one of the characters,  though. ❞

   the kid’s gotta be pulling my leg , she thinks ,  he looks twelve ! can twelve year olds even read lord of the rings ? 

    she’s really not anyone to judge , quite honestly , it’s not like she’s ever READ the books .  only ever watched the movies ... watched them more than she should admit , too .

    ❝  good thing it’s not YOUR cat , yeah ?  ❞  she says , deciding not to question his age & comprehension skills .  probably BETTER that way anyways , kid seems irritated by it .  & she’s never had a good experience with an angry kid . 

@eumende​ - plotted 

Lee’s travels had taken him to L.A for the sake of his crusade. His crusade had him travel to cities, states and general areas one at a time, worldwide! Non-lethally eradicating crime until the areas were crime free and peaceful like his hometown is and the state around it is thanks to his efforts. Ultimately striving for a certain clear goal.

The man was about to begin the usual path of his mission, when all of a sudden he sensed a disturbance. A building had been set on fire and there were two people at the situation, a young woman and a little boy. Well snap, this was an urgent situation that needed to be resolved as quickly as possible. There was no time to waste.

He disappeared and reappeared at the scene, within the building that had been set on fire. Lee looked upon the woman and the boy. At first he assumed it was the boy that caused the fire, but as he sensed the situation he realized it was the woman. He made several portals appear over all of the fire and water came out of the portals.

    FEAR & GUILT were RARE emotions to be felt by the young woman , though the two CONSUMED her as she laid violet hues upon the scared boy’s face .  he couldn’t have been much older than fifteen , an age where one should be with friends , enjoying youth .  instead , he was here , about to be burnt to a CRISP like the rest of the building . 

    erinye wasn’t even supposed to be here ; she should’ve been at HOME .   but , so like the woman when BORED , she got herself into trouble .  though , the trouble she found herself in , was not what she wanted .  the night was meant to have , at most , fire set to the vehicle of some random asshole .  not the smartest  ( not like she ever was the smartest in the first place )  , but would have caused so much LESS damage than a whole apartment building . it’s what she gets for being careless , & setting fire to the dry grass around the building . 

    she would’ve left the scene of the crime , SHOULD’VE left .  but that little bit of guilt kept her , to watch as the many residents exited .  she told herself she’d leave then , once they were all gone , but someone yelled about their son being still in there .  must’ve been some kind of hero complex , because she found herself entering the building right after to find him .  & when she found him , well , FATE decided they weren’t to leave .  door knocked down behind her , she quickly went to stand near the boy .  STUCK now , they were . no way out .  were they going to die here ? 

    it really would be her luck to die by something she so STUPIDLY caused .

    though , by some miracle , fire around them DOUSED to nothing but ember .  CONFUSION etched on her face , she looked around them until she found a man .  a man who wasn’t there before .

   & she , so ELOQUENTLY , said to the man ,  ❝  who the fuck are you ?  ❞
