hi remember me
[ She sees him all the time. In her nightmares, on the cusp of wakefulness that she hurtles towards constantly ever since the day that Vale, her home, cracked. Yang has come to despise that witching hour between night and day, where her skin breaks with sweat over dreams that are never quite dreams. Because he's always there. Red, and black — she had come to trust black, the beast. She had come to trust Blake, enough to fight for her, and this is where it's all lead to. Another nightmare, more red clawing through darkness. Through black. ]
You're...
[ Here, again. What, for her other arm? Yang feels lucid, but everything around her is hazy and thick. This must be a nightmare, because she can feel her fists clench. Both of them. ...Can't she? It burns, she's sure of that. Oh, does it burn. In her blood, through her skin. Enough to turn everything around her to ash this time. ]
You're a monster.
new phone, who dis?
But its always something different when he comes, always just one more part of her that he cuts away, piece by piece, until there's nothing left.]
And you're a fool. [She can recognize the stance he drops into; its the same one he used when he took her arm. The same stance he uses whenever when slices through another part of her. He all but dares the little huntsman to come at him again.]
no subject
No! [ His insult hits her square in the chest without even touching her. ] I'm not wrong!
[ Digging her heels in, she raises her arms. Both of them... both of them. In a flash, she's off the ground, her footsteps and heartbeat pounding in her ears. She'll get him, this time. She'll end this nightmare, and Blake will come home. ]
Protecting what's important to me isn't wrong!
