 ANGST MEME

Sometimes we all want to play some angst and see just how far our characters will fall.

 

- Post your characters, name and series in the subject along with any preferences.

- Go to random.org and roll.

- Play!

 1. just depressed.

Things are tough, you're feeling worn out, or whatever the case, you're depressed. You need help or someone else thinks you do anyway.

 

2. abandoned.

You were left behind by everyone you hold dear and now you're forced to see how well they've adjusted, how happy they all are while you're screaming inside.

 

3. sick.

Cold, flu, or something even worse, all you can do is lay back and let someone take care of you.

 

4. fight.

You've been fighting nonstop with the other person and it just keep escalating.

 

5. break up.

You're being broken up with and they won't reconsider... Damn.

 

6. separated.

For some reason, you've been separated from the other person for a long time.

 

7. kidnapped.

You've been held captive for how long now? Maybe they've been torturing you even, using your blood to write ransom notes, threatening to cut off fingers to send next, etc. Rescue is on the way though, right?

 

8. beaten up.

Just because someone didn't like you or maybe they wanted something you had, whatever the case is, you're coming home sporting some nasty wounds and bruises.

 

9. jealousy.

You just have this undeniable jealousy suddenly and you need to let it out.

 

10. cheated on.
This goes beyond just suspicion and you have full on proof of what your lover has done. How do you handle it?

 

11. apathetic.

You're not sad, you're not happy, you just... don't feel much anymore. The sparkle of life has gone right out of you and you're just going through the motions now.

 

12. addicted.

Drugs, alcohol, whatever your drug of choice is, you can't fight the draw and you can't draw yourself out of the hole, but the other person is going to try.

 

13. bad romance.

You know this isn't good for either of you, but you can't stop now.

 

14. fear.

Nightmares, the feeling someone is following you, etc. You can't shake the feeling.

 

15. insanity.

You're seeing things and hearing them, waking up only to realize you've done things you don't remember or you're in a place you weren't before. You're losing it and you don't know what to do.

 

16. guilt.

It's eating you up inside and you have to tell someone about it now. You want to be punished and you won't take no for an answer.

 

17. loss

You've lost something dear to you.

 

18. wild card.

Combine some options or make your own!

[ Peter destroyed everything he loved. He'd done it so much against his will that it was an established fact. He never meant to destroy the things he loved, but it was something he couldn't help, something that spun completely out of his control like a newly acquired power.

Just because he'd left Niki for her own good, didn't mean that he didn't check up on her from time to time. She never saw him, but he knew what was happening and as much as it hurt him, he wanted her to move on, wanted her to find happiness and a life that wasn't as dangerous as the one with him was bound to be.

Eventually, it became evident that she wasn't moving forward, or getting over him, or making a new, happier life. That was when he approached her in the bar one night, taking his usual seat on the end with a glass of whiskey. He watched and tried to remember that in order for one to be seen, one had to remain visible.]

{She slipped off the stage, walking as if she were in a dream, or maybe it was a living nightmare. Still, it was the same every night. Get drunk, dance, try to forget. Blah, blah, fucking-blah.

It was different this night though, why it was different, at first, was an enigma to her? She slipped off the stage to walk toward the bar where the bartender had a scotch waiting for her...just like every other night lately. Fuck AA, fuck sobriety, it wasn't worth a damn.

It was then that she noticed it, the smell of him and she lifted her head. Standing there in a shocked silence as she tried to get her eyes to focus. She blinked a few times through blurry vision, realizing that it must have been tears clouding her sight. But through those tears she saw a shock of black hair. Then the scar on his face, and her anger raised up through her bones to boil over hard. She, literally, lunged at him. Tackling him around his middle and off the bar stool.} ...you fucking bastard!

Sorry. I've been busy

[ It doesn't escape Peter's notice the shape that Nikki is in and it's not what he wanted for her, not ever.

He's taken off guard by her attack and lands on the ground hard, but he doesn't fight back. He wouldn't ever. It's not as if she can hurt him anyway, not physically so he'll let her take her anger out on him.]

[hersoulinpieces]

[She sits back on him, and lifts her fist to punch him in his smug face a couple of times. When he doesn't fight back, like she wanted? Well, she rolls off to the side with a sound of distaste, and anger.

Once she gets to standing, she pushes at his thigh with her foot a bit hard.]

Why the fuck are you here?!

[stepsonbutterflies]

[ He sits up, but doesn't stand, watching her from where he sits.

Because you aren't coping the way you were supposed to.

[ He doesn't say 'to take care of you' because Niki has Jessica to take care of her. She doesn't need him. He's just hoping some closure will help her cope.]

[hersoulinpieces]

Oh? Is that right? Well, Peter Petrelli, enlighten me, how am I supposed to be coping? Do you have a fucking manual?

{She said with a deep, resonating growl.} I loved you, you left me...trying to erase me now. And I am supposed to act in some specific way for you to feel better?
