❛ I HAVE MY REASONS. ❜ ( REASON # 1 : zatanna is pissed at her. to be settled in a weeks time but still inconvenient. she’s never liked outsourcing work. ) nails tap , tap , tap against the prominent bone on her wrist , 20 ticks passing as she considers. ❛ how about half now and half in a month. i’ll throw in a to be determined favor as interest. ❜

i’ve noticed a need for a young justice psd that’s friendly to black characters! very easy to use, and although i haven’t tried every scene in the show, i’ve labeled any places you need to adjust should you like to do basic changed. there’s short instructions on how to take away the blue highlights and turn it into a cooler toned psd if you don’t like the red tone in the skin ( not shown above. ) feel free to use with or without credit and edit as you wish! download link.
❝ i think i deserve a little more faith than that. ❞
❛ I KNOW YOU DO. but everyone’s running pretty low on faith right now. ❜ she can’t say she blames them. betrayal , as well meaning as it was in the long run , is a hard pill to swallow. if the league had pulled something so large scale on them they would be furious. no matter what intentions were in the end. it still hurts. she understands it , but it hurts.
❛ they’ll understand eventually that you - that we all did what we thought was necessary. you have to ride out the distrust for a little while. let them trust you again. ❜ she tries for a reassuring smile , a little weak at the edges , and a soft hand on his arm. ❛ until then you have me. kaldur , too , if you actually decide to come around. ❜
some old meme i can’t find.
artemis voice: did i sell some cheap spices to gotham academy kids and say it was weed? yes. but in my defense they were stupid and believed me.

❛ THAT’S CRIMINAL , IS WHAT THAT IS. ❜ leaning heavily forward , settling on bruised elbows , she keeps her voice a coarse whisper. ❛ especially when i have a friend i could go to for free , babe. ❜

he’s taken to spending time with her in the aftermath of everything . he feels like he OWES her and has to stick around to make sure she’s okay . she’s not . no one is it seems , and he’s running around like an imposter in WALLY’S suit making everyone REMEMBER . ❛ do you BLAME me ? ❜ he blurts suddenly . asking the question he’s be wondering since he saw the LOOK on artemis’ face .
❛ because i totally would if i were you and … and he would still be here if it wasn’t for ME . that was what created the energy imbalance ! and it’s why all the energy went after him instead of dissipating because i was going too fast , and if i had just slowed down and stopped trying to show off and one up him , or … OR if i just let wally and barry handle it … they handled stuff like like that all the time ! it would have been fine ! but i messed it all up . ❜

SHE HAS A FILTER WITH BART , with everyone lately. she’s running on delayed reactions. it helps her lock away the rapid fire information being thrown at her to be processed later and tells her when to focus on the conversation at hand. it takes a whole of three seconds for his words to pass through that filter and she’s suddenly tripping over any kind of good reaction. she’s never been so grateful for his rambling. it gives her the short time she needs to force her face into submission and mask the surprise ( and the guilt , hurt , anger that follow. ) ❛ BART … ❜
❛ i - no , i don’t blame you. ❜ get that out first. disarm the situation and then address the root of the problem. ❛ this … i don’t even know what to call it. THIS COSMIC , BULLSHIT JOKE ? no one thinks it’s your fault , okay ? because it’s not. it’s not your fault that he’s - it’s - it’s not your fault ! it’s the reach’s fault and … he knew what he was doing. if you weren’t there thing’s would have been so much worse. none of us would be here. ❜ it feels like she’s clipping wires , like two time bombs are in her hands. the wrong one goes and things go BOOM.
he does, he has plenty in his quiver—- ones with hand warmers and ones with sticky grip, but he doesn’t know if any of them will fit artemis. his hands are a hell of a lot bigger than her’s. ( jade had small hands too. ) “ sure, but i dunno if they’re gonna fit. your hands are like the size of my palm. ” he snorts and tosses her a pair, red and black with plating on the knuckles.
❛ no , i meant - ❜ they're caught with ease mid correction. it wasn't exactly what she meant but she's not going to not throw them back now. ( SOUVENIR ! ) it’s lost her attention anyway. the material is cool in her hands , twisted between thin fingers without a glance having yet been given to them yet. ❛ my hands are so not that small. ❜
“Maybe consider a new line of work.”
❛ MAYBE CONSIDER A NEW LINE OF WORK. that’s - ❜ there’s a loud moment of her clearing her throat suddenly , the ridiculous deep pitch proving too much for her vocal cords. she thinks it was an impressive imitation for someone who’s falling asleep in her coffee , regardless. ( and not at all a childish response. ) ❛ - that’s you. that’s what you sound like. ❜
INJUSTICE 2 QUOTES / no longer accepting !
“one of the nephilim,” said lily, BAD GIRL that she was, and she drummed on the table of their booth with shining blue fingernails. “my, my.”
“I don’t have a choice.”
❛ YOU DON’T HAVE A CHOICE ? ❜ her jaw snaps , mouth closed quickly to curb the sudden spike in anger rising up her throat to trap it behind her teeth. a nerve has been hit and the result is bare on her face : full lips pulled thin , a muscle jumping beneath the skin in her cheek. as if the the martian needs physical queues to be as clued into her thoughts as she is. irritation is rolling off of her in waves and there’s no way to hide that. ( count to ten. one. two. three. four ... )
❛ i know i didn’t just hear that. because you are too damn smart to pull that shit with me. seriously , how often did you guys used to give me that whole master of your own fate , you make your own decisions spiel ? that applies to you , too. ❜
