The Hero Macha

          ❛ Do you need assistance…? ❜

          A strange bunch Elise’s retainers truly were. Though he couldn’t really talk with the strangeness of his own retainers at times. Yet there was something to be said about someone who spouted just about the same amount of nonsense that Odin did…with just a bit more sense.

Macha glanced at Marx as he approached, grunting a little as she completed another chin-up on the bars. Sweat glistened on her arms, beading along her forehead as she rested one arm over the bar and wiped it clear, still suspended above the ground as she gave her lady's older brother a small smile. 

"Hey, it's just working out. We all do it."

“They get away with murder. I can never get away with anything.”

“I’ll fight you with my bare hands!”

“But we can’t just run away from who we are.”

“If you could just try to see what I do, I do out of love.”

“Good day to you. We’ll expect your declarations of war in the morning.”

“You’re acting like a child!”

“Oh, and by the way, I hope you don’t mind being called _____.”

“Some never find it. But there are some who are led.”

“Do you ever bother to ask what I want? No! You walk around telling me what to do, what not to do!”

“Our fate lives within us, you only have to be brave enough to see it.”

“Trust me, deary. It will do the trick.”

“I don’t believe you! I’ve just about had enough of you!”

“I’m not doing any of this to hurt you.”

“Where are you? Come out! Come out! Come on out! I’m coming to get you!”

“I don’t want my life to be over. I want my freedom!”

“A _____ should not HAVE weapons, in my opinion.”

“I don’t want to get married! I want to stay single and let my hair flow in the wind as I ride through the glen, firing arrows into the sunset!”

“It’s not my fault. I didn’t ask her to change you into a bear!”

“Never conjure where you carve, dear.”

“Find these berries down by the creek, did you? They’re Nightshade berries. They’re poisonous.”

“You embarrassed them! You embarrassed me!”

“There are those who say fate is something beyond our command.”

[[So some of you may have seen either me or proistemii around, or maybe you follow both of us, and notice we both are superhero OC memes blogs that have our own little kind of verse outside of the dedicated types (AKA Marvel/DC). Well, we shot the idea around back and forth and thought “What if we made a superhero RP group together for others to get in on and learn more about the verse and be able to take part in it without feeling like they /have/ to RP with either of us and not know every little thing about our combined world?”

So we decided we’d just make said Superhero Group. We don’t have a name for it yet, so people who want to join can pitch us ideas, but we thought we’d at least see if people wanted to be a part of it! You can message either @clemenstine or @proistemii in order to join, and we look forward to seeing your ideas for heroes, villains, mercs or civs down the road~]]

“It’s your own fault.” Cynthia shrugged, flourishing her lance a bit before looping it back around her back. “It’s why I went for staff training over magic - sure, it looks cool, but if they get in close you get beat up pretty badly.”

She rolled her neck, wincing as a pulled muscle in her shoulder from a rough landing protested. She was going to need a decent night’s sleep tonight - maybe it was the women’s turn in the springs, if she was lucky. No point wasting a staff or vulenary on a temporarily strained shoulder.

“But, hey, look on the bright side. Up until that guy got in your face, you looked really cool.”

“Cynth– Macha, I didn’t have much of a choice on the weapon. We are to fit in as best as possible and you know that.”

MACHA. Oh, how he missed calling her Cynthia. His own cousin was dragged into this mess and all he can think about are the years where he was used to seeing her have the color of her her father’s hair, the hue of BLUE he had missed on her so. While he thought her choice in dye was befitting, he couldn’t help but miss how she used to look – how she was before she entered Nohr. Sentiments be damned, he absolutely adored his cousin as she was.

“It’s not as if I can really present myself as a myrmidon here, those don’t exist in Nohr – but the compliment is appreciated.”

—≪♘≫”M-Mother…”

     She hadn’t known she was there at the doorway. Yet here they were now, her mother having witnessed the nightmare and it’s outward effects on Caeldori. Twisting, turning, thrashing about in her sleep. Waking up in a cold sweat and tears. So many tears. 

      She knew now that there was really no way out of this, was there? She had to be honest… She opened her mouth to try to speak, but instead found herself in her mother’s embrace, face buried against her chest.

He’s a dead man. I’m finding him myself.

Macha wasn’t sure what else she could do right now. She didn’t enjoy feeling helpless - and wouldn’t for much longer if she had anything to say - so she cupped Caeldori’s head in her hands and forced her to look into her eyes, trying to hide the rage burning inside her. 

“It wasn’t your fault. If he had you trapped, you did what you had to to stay alive. Because now we can find him and gut him like a fish for hurting you-”

“Ugh, so okay… I really should… be grabbing a healer for this but, my only options is the damn royal princesses, Corrin’s personal maids and butler, or Azama.” Charlotte cringed all those options would likely be disastrous for her to go to. She needed someone who wasn’t connected to the royal family and would be as discrete as possible.  Taking a deep breath, Charlotte let out the big secret.

“It’s been more than a month… and well… nothing… is happening…” Charlotte bit her lip, and crossed her arms close to her chest, as she looked away from Macha’s judging glance, her face hot and red.

"Okay." She said calmly, walking over to her bags. "I'm not as good as they are, but I do kind of know what I'm doing."

She pulled out her healing staff and put it on the bed, carefully. Shaking her head again, she turned to look at Charlotte.
