people will never bleed enough to fulfill your vision of justice.
English
@envyconsumed no. never.
( though brave, and rather accustomed to his gaze, something about this particular look makes her fidget slightly under the scrutiny of his eyes. the last thing she wants is to be a disappointment. )
selfish things. yearning. wanting.
( oh, she feels embarrassed. )
English
@witsmatched The work is always done. I know you wouldn’t disappoint me. Would you?
[ Asks the man, inhaling through his nose. He’s staring down at her, eyes piercing through her own. Her admiration, and in turn, adoration, being met with determination, and need. ]
Define.. foolish.
English
it will be. much must be done before then - but it will be.
( bravery strikes her then, and she rises: level with the man himself. her dark eyes hold something in them: glimmering admiration — and adoration. )
it’s. . . another foolish emotion, lex.

You’re so right. And yet, so wrong. Nothing’s right anymore. I’m not sure if it ever will be again. . [ Lex says, his free hand moving up to pinch the bridge of his nose.. before sighing a little. Eyes moving to meet hers. He’s hard to read. ] Please, then; quell my confusion.
English
good morning, metropolis*.
. . .
*mostly just lex luthor.

i was once lost too, about what i should protect, and how to do it. but after that incident, i've found my answer.
English
they WILL see. and you’ll make it right.
( breathless, tahlia finally tilts her head up to him. he’s close - perhaps closer than ever - and it makes her shudder just enough to be noticed. )
you think so? i fear such a word isn’t strong enough for how i feel, not even by half.
𝐈 ᴷᴺᴼᵂ 𝖊𝖛𝖎𝖑.@envyconsumed
Yes, but—.. when you show them the light. Force their eyes open to it. They’ll see. [ There’s an inhale through his nose, and then a tip-tap on her shoulder, using his fingers. It’s rhythmic. ] Trust is a strong word, miss Strickland.
English
/ it has been a HOT minute since i’ve graced the verse with tahlialex stuff
English
more will see, in time. right now they’re just - blind to the truth.
( briefly tahlia stiffens, lips parting for a shaky intake of breath. she doesn’t dare move further, or risk breaking this sacred moment. )
. . . i’m certain, because i trust you so much, lex.
𝐈 ᴷᴺᴼᵂ 𝖊𝖛𝖎𝖑.@envyconsumed
Everything we /do/ is for this city. Well, those that.. see why we do it. [ There’s a nod, and a lowering of his head.. before a hand reaches out and lightly touches upon her shoulder. ] And what makes you so very certain?
English
i would like to think my best work has been for you. for this city.
( that grin makes her heart flutter faster and faster still. a hand gestures to the city streets - far below them, like so much else. )
they don’t understand your cause like i do.
𝐈 ᴷᴺᴼᵂ 𝖊𝖛𝖎𝖑.@envyconsumed
I’ll allow it. [ There’s a squint, and then a grin. It’s small, but noticeable. ] And you’ve done /such/ a good job. No? Dedicated so much to this cause. .
English
the good looks are a plus.
( a quiet laugh. she’s embarrassed. )
i like working for you. i like helping you.
( i like y o u, she adds silently. )
𝐈 ᴷᴺᴼᵂ 𝖊𝖛𝖎𝖑.@envyconsumed
Oh, trust me. . I know. [ A chuckle. Quiet. Amused. ] And here I thought you worked for me for my dashing good looks, and burning hatred.
English
/ tahlia… girl… spit it out… just say you want him so bad it makes your brain fuzzy
English
i-i’m not usually like this.
( oops, red-faced. )
i was just going to say that - that i find you incredibly fascinating.
𝐈 ᴷᴺᴼᵂ 𝖊𝖛𝖎𝖑.@envyconsumed
And here I was, thinking you were one of my most well put-together employees. And yet, here you are.. falling apart. Find your words. I won’t go anywhere.
English
/ she’s so witty and well-spoken till he gets her flustered, and he KNOWS he gets her flustered and pushes it farther imo. . . but what do i know 😭
English
/ tahlia when lex calls her miss strickland tbh
