[SEMI-OPEN] And all the promises you've made

Who | Sigma and Diana, Eponine, M. Thenardier, Initiate, and YOU and your loved one!
What | Catch-all log for Sigma and the "Thicker than Blood" plot.
When | Any time after the start of the plot.
Where | All around the Capitol, specify where.
Notes/Warnings | Thenardier and Sigma likely will get into a fight, warnings to be added as they come. Prompts for specific threads in the comments! Interactions with Diana are closed, but your character can tag in and have Sigma meet their loved one. Open posters can make a top comment. Also, Sigma and his lover have a significant age difference, so heads up!


[OPEN:]
Though she had been well thusfar, Sigma feared Diana's nervous constitution would get the better of her should they be ambushed by fans or tourists. It had taken years for Sigma to overcome his anxiety in public, and it was not a trait he had been cured of completely... and to the woman who had inadvertently had a hand in a mass extinction, he suspected unplanned spontaneity within the Capitol would not do her well. But the whole truth was that he had yet to explain Hunger Games to her and his part in them, and though it hurt him to lie he kept an eye on the programs she watched, the people she spoke to. They were both survivors of a long line of death games and she would not take the discovery well.

And so, as Diana began to fall asleep that evening, Sigma kissed her goodnight and dressed to head out on his own. Nye trilled and leapt onto the bed, seating himself on the blankets over Diana's legs - she sighed, but did not move. The Doctor watched affectionately as she drifted to sleep... how dearly he loved her. Were she to leave him again, or if someone were to hurt her... well, Sigma was uncertain of what he would do. Perhaps the fight the Capitol had been trying to goad out of him would finally spring to the surface. He'd cross that bridge as he came to it.

The Doctor took his leave and started out into the Capitol, hoping to come across familiar faces.

Fear is a common thing. Fear from strangers don't mean a thing except for where he knows he should feel the fear, and can't. There's no offence to be seen upon his features.

The gesture of her out stretched hand isn't entirely lost-- pacts made as they were, and things taught here, by escorts when all he didn't tune them out. He reaches out for Diana's hand and is careful not to scrape nor nick his claws on her flesh. Careful not to crush her.

The real warmth comes however at Sigma's admission, a flicker of a smile genuine over his face, that tries and fails to disappear completely after the fact. He masks it poorly with a grin and says, "IF IT CHANGES NOTHING THAN NOTHING OUGHT BE CHANGED. If all our own paid mind to our timeline respective ain't no one would make all to be motherfucking anywhere. HE IS PARTED FROM HIS OWN FAMILY BY THOUSANDS. But family still such regardless."

He gestures as he speaks, in slow flourish. He gestures to her as well, saying, "AND SO HE GREETS A WICKED SISTER AS SUCH."

She nods, remembering how long Sigma says he's been here, and it's not in her to be jealous for the time other people have had with him.

"A wicked...sister?" Diana looks confused for a moment, and then somewhat amused, and more than that - touched. Somehow, looking into the eyes of a creature from a race who didn't die on her behalf is comforting in a way it shouldn't be. In a way she won't complain about.

She pats his hand and closes hers over it. "It's a pleasure to meet you." Thank you for taking care of Sigma, she wants to say, even if that's a broad construction of caring for someone.
