" alright, " she doesn't think twice before entering his pink jeep ; it takes her a moment though to realize something was off. and her demeanor switches in an instant. she shifts ever so slightly in her seat, to face @setkenoff – she doesn't understand what's happening, but she wants to help him. or hear him out, whatever it is that he desires. " it's okay, ken. you'll be okay. what are you feeling? "
You think I am stopping you because I don’t think your capable? You being capable is the problem.”
“You mean more to me than my next breath. there was no ask.”
“Choosing love and war are both honorable choices.”
You are injured. I will murder you if you get up and than bring you back to life to murder you again. I love you.”
“I could fight ghosts themselves and not flinch if only to see you whole.”
“Love doesn’t need reason.”
“Love doesn’t see reason.”
“I’d yell now that we are alive though you clearly don’t listen to me.”
“Are you going to be the one to stop me? because I know what I am going to do, I just need to know who is going to try and stop me.”
“This world needs you far more than me.”
“Regardless of title or standing, I will fight and die for you or at your side.”
Look just because I am capable of protecting you, doesn’t mean you have to need it so much?”
“Wasn’t sure if I should yell at you or kiss you for getting yourself into this?’
“Love means we are a team. if we are going into danger, it is together since I doubt you like the macho role.”
“Of course, walk towards the danger because you have a human shield.”
“I’m not trying to control you. I am trying to keep you safe.”
“No, don’t do that it’s not safe.”
“You’re scared of that, aren’t you?”
“Don’t touch her/him!”
“It’s cute that you tried to protect me and all, but you’re like a foot shorter than me, you know?”
“I will always step in between you and something like that.”
“Why? Because I don’t want you to get hurt, that’s why!”
“Do you think just because my feet don’t touch the bottom of the pool that I need a floatie?”
“The stepping stool is unecessary.”
“I’m not apologizing for what I said to that asshole/jerk… He/she was saying terrible things about you.”
“If you say another word about her/him, you’ll regret it.”
“I don’t want to put you in that type of environment.”
“Make sure to tell me if you get worried, or nervous, or claustrophobic, or-”
“You could have been hurt.”
“I indirected him/her on Twitter for your honor.”
“I think you should leave this type of thing to me.” “I’m gonna protect you.”
“You can hold onto me if you’re scared, you know?”
“I’m not leaving you alone. Not now, not ever.”
“Let’s all watch a different movie. This one freaks her/him out.”
“I get where you’re coming from dude, but honestly shut the hell up and don’t talk about her/him that way.”
“She/He isn’t an object.”
“She/he told me what you did, and all I’m gonna do is tell you to stay away.”
“You don’t know anything about her/him!”
“What? You think that was funny? You just insulter her/him, and expect me to laugh?”
“I’m not gonna let you put up with that.”
“Really, if you told me to I’d go punch them for you.”
“Wait, let me walk you home.”
“I’ll drive you, please– please don’t go like this.”
“It’s dangerous.
“I’m worried about you.”
“I meant it when I said I would protect you.”
“I’m not stepping aside until you back up.”
“It’s too cold for you to come out here without a jacket on.”
“I’ll go see what the noise was.”
“Stay on the phone with me.”
“Promise me you’ll be safe.”
“I don’t feel comfortable with you going there on your own.”
“He/She did what to you?”
“I won’t let you go through something like that again.”
“I’m not perfect, but I’m trying my hardest to do everything to keep you safe.” “Stay behind me.”
“I promised your mom to make sure you didn’t do anything stupid tonight.”
“I love you. Of course I’m gonna defend you like that.”
“No, he/she isn’t good enough to take you out. Trust me, I know.”
“Are you planning to stay glued to my side this whole evening?”
“I’ll be okay, because I know you’re back here ready to step in if I need you.”
“Thank you for always sticking with me.”
“I’m really worried about her/him, but I don’t think he/she wants me to call.”
“I don’t know what I would do if something happened to you.”
“Like, I don’t expect to ever have to take a bullet for you, but I would.”

See you in hell 💋💋💋 ...jk ilu
every cloud has a silver lining ; but there’s still hope, even in the strangest of circumstances, coming from the uttermost unexpected individuals. for a moment there, all hope seemingly dimmed into nothingness, overshadowed by the fear of not attaining her goal. it was, after all, beyond barbie’s subjectiveness since all barbielanders’ lives could be at stake. as soon as he responded, relief comes washing over her, a burden no longer weighing on her shoulders – and she finally exhales the air that was chocking her just a few moments ago. he was also so kind to have noticed she was a doll! therefore, the chain reaction of sheer kindness pulls at the rims of her rosy lips, her smile growing wider in return.
❝ oh, wow, thank you! that’s seriously amazing of you to help me out, i really appreciate it! ❞ ceruleans flickered to look at him properly – after all, he was the savior she needed in this time of crisis. and she notices the eccentric makeup upon his visage in a quick but meticulous scan. the bright smile stayed still, as if engraved on her own countenance ; what a time to be a plastic doll, right? barbie shifts her position to stay beside him – a showcase of equality and amity intertwined. ❝ i love your makeup, by the way! you know, when i was still studying to become an actress in the theater, i used to go beyond the lines i’ve been given. kinda like your makeup. it was bold, but it got me the role. are you also a performer? maybe we can play together sometime. ❞
innocence envelops her body and it leaves with the words she has spoken. despite hearing stories, this barbie doesn’t know much about the real world. sure, she has learnt scripts by heart and she poured out emotions she doesn’t naturally feel – and all for the cameras. despite her notoriety, barbie was only a doll. she was manufactured to be kind and friendly and definitely not aware by the reality. she was made to give little girls hope – and to be played by little girls. her knowledge didn’t expand much further than what a kid knows. there was kindness and recklessness and happiness and also politeness. cue the alarm that rings in her mind, and she’s quick to follow up, ❝ i’m sorry, i completely forgot about introductions. i’m barbie! and you are? ❞
He didn't believe in coincidences.
The thought sent him back to one of his recent bank heists. A very busy day, lots of customers. The whole operation went smoothly, none of the hostages acting foolishly brave, nothing remarkable. Except one thing. The girl looking at him with those enormously big blue eyes. She didn't look scared of him like most kids would. Her gaze was full of sheer curiosity that was impossible to miss in the whimpering crowd. He stopped right in front of the girl crouching a little to her level making her mother scream and pull her daughter closer to her chest. The little girl, though, gave him her most charming smile, a smile that was missing a baby tooth, but pretty nonetheless, and lifted her arms to give him her most prized possession - a Barbie doll.
He mouthed "For me?" and solemnly accepted the gift, throwing the doll in his blue duffel bag on top of the money bills and a couple of guns. In return, he fished a shabby-looking potato peeler out of his pocket and slapped it into the girls tiny hands. "For potatoes." He whispered conspiratorially, making all witnesses watching silently hold their breath. "And skin."
The doll would sit on his desk among various objects cluttering his workspace -- a collection of knives, a map of Gotham, a couple of burner phones, blueprints, duct tape, latest issues of The Gotham Times, a Mehron makeup kit, a bunch of crayons, piles of newspaper and magazine cutouts. He didn't pay much attention to the doll. Sometimes the toy would be tossed aside or fall on the dirty floor during the chaotic energy of his work in progress but life was never meant to be easy even for a doll, now was it?
The moment when he turned around and saw her made him blink. It couldn't be. He couldn't be imagining this. Even her clothes looked similar. He didn't believe in coincidences. He only believed in chaos. He also believed in Gotham. And she provided.
"Well, hello there, beautiful." He gives her his most amiable smile flashing the yellowed teeth. 'The sir' knew every corner of this city like a back of his own hand and he needed to act fast. "This is your lucky day, doll, because I'm headed there myself. Would ya care to join me?"
there's a dreadful sentiment digging at her chest, with metaphorical claws, that is. she wasn't worried about the speed, about the car, not even about herself. she was worried for him. lips pursed into a thin line, huffing through her nose. an intention arises, to rest her hand on his arm, to reassure him other than with words that it's going to be okay, but she doesn't follow through. instead, she just stares at him with her doe eyed crystal gaze, feeling sorry that she can't actually help him. it takes a while before she exhales all the air that she was holding, as she was trying to find the appropriate words to tell him – spoiler alert, none seemed to be kenough.
" dolls make mistakes too. " she wasn't defending anyone, but it was true, " and they hurt too. from my own experience the crocodile tears were first real tears. we – you are allowed to feel emotions. and i can't provide the answers to all those questions. but i know that it's no fun what you're feeling. " her gaze flickers to the road, it seemed awfully quiet, probably because everyone else was attending the party. " where are we going? because i have an idea that might help. "
She steps in, and he's off in an instant, pressing the gas peddle to the floor. The faster they leave, the better he'll feel, as wind whips through their hair, almost drowning out the music and her inquiry. Hands grip the steering wheel, and he keeps his eyes on the road in front of them, tempted to pretend he didn't hear her - but she's perceptive, and he's a mess, it would be foolish to act like everything's okay.
He turns down the music enough so it doesn't shake the car anymore, but provides enough background noise so it isn't awkward.
"I don't know." He's being truthful, looking anywhere but at her reflection in the mirror, "I thought he loved me. Why the hell was he kissing someone else? Why was he kissing Barbie?"
BOLD what your muse can do. italicize what they can do to some extent.

MIDGE HADLEY [ PLAYED BY @shesmidge ] : i won't ever ask you for help ever again.
barbie always tries her best, however there are times when it’s not good enough. unfortunately when one strives for perfectionism, one does not grasp the reality. and so it was for barbie, when she had promised midge she’d be there to help her. what she didn’t take into account was that acting until past midnight would have consequences. she hadn’t heard the first alarm that went off. neither the second nor the third. and when she rolled out of bed, time was against her. she didn’t know how she managed to get out of the hotel she was staying at, nor the speed she was driving her car. when she finally reached midge’s house, she was already five hours late. legend has it, she’s still cussing out the traffic inside her head. ❝ hi, i’m sorry i’m late… ❞ she barely uttered as soon as her car door was slammed shut. she approaches midge with her chest seemingly closing in, an anxiety symptom she couldn’t quite grasp, but still she felt. and oh, how hard it clenched on her soul. but it was midge’s words that caused the most pain. lips parted open as she stuttered, not able to verbalize a response. there were plenty of thoughts inside her head going at the speed of light, but none that could emerge in a coherent manner. cerulean hues couldn’t even look at her friend anymore, instead they slowly drifted downward. she was ashamed of looking midge directly in the eye. why did she promise something unachievable? why didn’t she hear the first alarms? why did the universe put her in the middle of traffic? the only one at blame was barbie herself. she put an expectation for her best friend only to let her down. big time. with quivering lips, she managed to further utter, ❝ i know it’s all my fault. i’m sorry. i didn’t mean to keep you waiting this long. i know i promised you something. ❞ the weight on her chest traveled to her throat as she found herself unable to voice anything else. she didn’t want to disappoint anyone, but especially her best friend. midge was everything barbie ever needed back in the days ; and there she was, disappointing midge.
