[ It's obvious this is being filmed in one of the many temples, all cool hard stone behind her, and, given the subject matter of the video, most likely to be Hope's. Sharon does not look pleased. Furious might be the better descriptor but it's a calm sort of fury. There are a few spatters of dark blood on her cheeks, dried and cracking; old. She has no wounds just stains and memories. She leans in towards the lens and whispers: ]

So, which one of you fuckers killed me? [ Her killer could reply, he might not, but she won't stop until she finds him and returns the favor. ]

[Sharon's furious? GUESS WHO ELSE.]

What?

[voice]

[circumitus]

When the fuck did that happen?

voice.

[unitas]

Don't worry. [ She keeps her voice tight. Death ain't nothing but a chicken wing. ] I'm going to make certain to return the favor.

[voice]

[unitas]

When we were all pretending to live normal lives. [ When she wasn't Sharon da Silva the Mother of God but just Sharon. Or Heather. Or Kathy. Or the Street Artist. ] Flipped his shit the moment he saw someone he thought looked like him in my work.

[This is the first instance of a revival that Brennan has witnessed, so she is less concerned about the who and why (the who is being addressed, and the why will follow) and more concerned with... how this even works.]

Were you conscious throughout the resurrection process?

[voice]

[circumitus]

You mean some asshole from our happy little Lala Land "paradise" [the air quotes are practically audible] actually blew their lid on you? Over that?

...What the hell?

voice.

[torrefied]

Not if I find the bastard first.

[He's neatly pushing aside guilt and focusing on his anger instead.]

What happened?

[beanstalk]

So don't tag buildings.

video | tw: suicide enouragement

[unitas]

[ Oh no. No. That is not a question she's going to answer, not while she can barely think straight without seeing red. Fire. Vengeance. ]

Why not kill yourself and find out that way? [ A simple 'Fuck you' might have sufficed but nah. Sorry, Brennan. ]

voice, i'm sorry /o\

[torrefied]

What the hell kind of question is that?

voice.

[closerift]

Or if I do.

[ HELLO, SHARON PROTECTIVE SQUAD IS NOW HERE ]

video;

[closerift]

One of the residents killed you?

[ Hell hath no fury like a woman who is overprotective of her lady friend!! ]

video; cw of... some sort? suicidal ideation but for science???

[notimpervious]

[She actually CONSIDERS THIS, completely overlooking Sharon's anger.]

So revival is guaranteed. [Huh.] I might. Not directly, but there are a multitude of deadly situations to get into.

[unitas]

I was just fucking painting and this... fuck, this asshole with a camera comes and starts snapping away and then I think he sees himself in my painting somehow and just... [ She's furious but she's also trying to remain calm and recall the details as clearly as she can. ] ...he just flipped his shit.

[ A pause, a soft sort of realization. ] He touched L's. I-I... I painted L. [ Not on purpose but that must mean something, right? Just thinking back to it makes her heart quicken and fear fill her despite her location. ] H-He almost looked like him.

[ A doppelganger? An alternate? A rabid fan? Some creation of the gods? ]

video; lmao

[notimpervious]

[She's....confused....]

What do you mean?

[voice]

[unitas]

Yeah, he went from creepy to psycho in seconds. I didn't have my powers... I couldn't remember so I... [ died. Fuck. It's almost audible that the realization is just finally settling in. She wants to hold on to her fury but death, even if it's her second time around, is never an easy thing to get over. ]

It was so fucked.

[unitas]

Yeah, go do that. But, fair warning, it's not a pleasant experience. Death, or returning. [ because then that's trying to accept the illogical fact that she can't die and stay dead. and then she has to remember how it went down. And then everything hurts again. ]

[unitas]

The next time I see you, I'm breaking your nose, just fyi. Asshole.

[dedikated]

( Oh good grief, talk about a flashback. )

... Again?

[unitas]

Yeah, he went completely psycho on me. Fucking nutjob. [ She sounds harsh but, in reality, she's just attempting to cope. ]

[Now is not the time, Ronan.]

[notimpervious]

Thank you, I will make note of your account when I compile my notes on death here.

[She's 100% serious and 0% offended. She even smiles as she responds.]

[ Kate. Kate. Fucking Kate! ]

You make it sound like I have a habit of dying. I've only been killed... twice now. This time it wasn't even for a good reason.

[unitas]

I'm going to go ahead and pretend I didn't see that so I don't have to go out of my way to punch you in the fucking face. For Adam's sake.

[beanstalk]

I'd like to see you try.
