Whatever it Takes
Who: Valdis and Open with Some Closed
What: Valdis does stuff around the Serena Eterna, feel free to join her
When: November
Where: All over
Warnings: In each starter
I’m a Product of the System | Open | CW: None
She’s mostly been forgiven for Tiamat’s actions, but it’s still all out there for people to look at on the photo wall. Valdis remembers some of these, but thankfully Ash’s death isn’t on there. There are other photos since the last time she was here, with other passengers, which is of course why she is here, to see what everyone else has been up to. She’s not the only murderer on the ship, they all play their parts when needed.
“When was the last time you killed someone,” she asks absently to the next approaching person.
A Catastrophe | Open | CW: None
Part of her no longer cares about dying, and with the daggers out of the way and the important people having their names to protect them, Tiamat has no more power. Or at least not enough to scare her. She has the twin blades out and practices with them, slashing with a speed that would terrify most. Valdis isn’t afraid to show off her power and skill, they are necessary to survival. With a single, swift slash one of the dummies falls into two pieces and she turns on the other, prepared to ruin that one as well.
And Yet a Masterpiece | Max and Ash | CW: Probably gonna be NSFW
Being in love with three people isn’t fair, but it is wonderful that she has found them all at the same time. Valdis had gone from no one, to so many she doesn’t want to ever leave the Eterna and lose them, but that might not be something that is up to any of them, and all good things eventually end. Still Ash’s emotions upon hearing that she knows when he and Max are together shows her a very missed opportunity. So she will text both.
Max, I still haven’t properly made it up to you after Tiamat and I think we need to talk to Ash about how all this is going to work. Dinner at 8?
Ash, we’ve been dating for a bit now, and I know you are also dating Max, and I am also dating Max. We should discuss this, don’t you think? Dinner at 8?
But I’m Half-diseased | Open | CW: Blood
Valdis sits in Sand Dollar, sketching scene after scene, person after person. Some are passengers and others people from her past. One might be familiar to those who went on the excursion, Fenrir. Occasionally she’ll close her eyes and hold her breath until something passes, other moments she is paler than usual, and some of the drawings have red splatters on them. She has several empty cups of coffee on the table and several red stained napkins. Anyone looking at her would know she is clearly unwell, but she’ll greet anyone who approaches with a smile and a polite greeting.

"If you don't count the zombies that one time, and I mostly don't... Before I got here, there were some weretigers. Territorial, you know. Us or them." She nudges Valdis sideways, carefully. "How're you feeling?"
no subject
Everything Tiamat said to the woman comes flooding back, and of course the emotions that accompanied them. Valdis turns away from the photos.
"I'm doing alright."
no subject
She shakes her head. No sense in holding him responsible for the actions of some people who attacked them.
"Are you really doing okay?" The smallest of doubts, there.
no subject
"I...I'm not sure I would classify Siffleur as a cannibal, he isn't human, he just looks like one." Just like she isn't human. "But yeah, it is a bit...disturbing if you take it out of the context of the Eterna."
Her gaze drifts back to the photos.
"I'm as fine as I can be. Are...we ok?"
She still remembers what Tiamat told Ylva.
no subject
Ylva does, however, let out a sigh. "I mean. The obvious thing is that she was too mean, you know. Why I knew something was wrong. I'm not going to go blaming you for that. It was... oh, you're not really jealous of me and Max, right? That's all I want to know."
no subject
"No, I'm not jealous of you and Max. You touch a part of him that I cannot, that makes him happy, and I love that he makes you happy too."
no subject
"Yeah, that's... sort of how it is, isn't it? I love that Max loves so many people. That's a good thing, I think. Wouldn't make sense for me to be upset about it when he is who he is."
no subject
She smiles.
"I mean, I also like you, so that helps. If we didn't get along it might be harder."
