His eyes turned on Black with a distinct slowness that spoke volumes louder than words alone could hope to. The look set upon the Kai’s face was just short of apathetic, and what little could be read was by no means good.

“Black,” He began, in a calm tone (even---too even). “I think that you and I need to have a very serious discussion. You’ve done enough of that.” Zamasu waved a hand vaguely at the other’s current training session. “Come along.” He turned towards the cabin without waiting for a response, because Black would follow, of that Zamasu had no doubt.

Horror/Angst Sentence Starters

Friend and I always want more angsty/dark starter memes so we decided to make our own! May add more later.

hiddcnrage:

They had come to this universe---to this particular timeline---in search of information. Every one of Zamasu’s plans had fallen into place, and he meant to see that divine fortune remain. He now sought to understand how Cell had come to create so much trouble for the Saiyans, and how this boy had defeated him. The Kai did not intend on making the same mistakes.

Of course, he had let Black have his fun afterwards. Zamasu watched from the sidelines as the mortals learned the true meaning of despair. Even their warriors were no match for him now, too fatigued from the ordeal. Only the half-Saiyan, the son of that accursed Goku, remained strong. He had fled, however, and Zamasu meant to find him.

     “Well well, you didn’t run far did you. Had to waste your time       saving those who are already a lost cause. That will be your       downfall, boy.”

Zamasu moved towards the light, grateful for the softness of it’s shine. It was beautiful, what Black could create with that body, with even the smallest amount of power. He sat beside his other self, hands folded neatly in his lap as his gaze went to the window before them.

“No...The rain usually calms me but tonight it only distracts me.” He sighed, before turning with a smile to Black. “And it’s getting cold, don’t you think?”

[ @kurogoku​ ]

     “Black, are you still awake?”

Rain pattered softly against the window outside, and the chill of the storm seemed to have stolen into their well fortified cabin. Zamasu loved the way they could smell the pines and dirt even in the comfort of a home, for the Kai had been brought up to appreciate nature and it was one tenet he still held firmly to. Still, the cold had a way of biting, as so many things in nature did. 

Slowly, he edged closer into the dark room, waiting for his eyes to adjust, to see where Black’s form might be at rest.

How to trim/cut threads

Not cutting your threads is generally a pet peeve for most, but I see a lot of people new to tumblr rp (and tumblr in general) who have no idea what this even means, so I thought I’d make a guide! As for what it means, basically you’re removing your last reply from the post, so that people will only see your partner’s reply, and then your new one below it.

Step 1: Download New X-Kit

Link (for Google Chrome) here: LINK or you can google it for your browser

Step 2: Once it’s finished downloading, go to tumblr and X-Kit will begin to install. Once that’s finished, refresh tumblr and you should see the X-Kit icon in the upper right corner of your dashboard. Click it!

Step 3: Go to the tab at the bottom called ‘Get Extensions’. Search for ‘Editable Reblogs’ and install it. Once that’s done, exit X-Kit.

With that done, you’ll notice when you go to reblog a post or edit a draft, there’s a small pencil icon to the left of the post. Click it. Now you can highlight and erase your previous response, leaving only your partner’s reply. Then you can begin to type underneath that.

Now your posts are nice and neat and don’t take up fifty feet on your blog!

kurogoku:

It was the question that had doubtlessly plagued them both since running, One they thought they had answered...but who was he kidding? it wasn’t such an easy thing to resolve. The Kai took a few bites of his own meal before even attempting to answer.

     “It’s true that your strength will come much slower now, but...We don’t       need it, isn’t that right? If we had continued simply destroying the       humans, we were no better than them. Barbarians...”

The thought of his mentor came unbidden to his mind, quickly buried under another bite of dinner. 

     “We won’t know until we find a new purpose, I suppose. We       are Gods, after all. There is something more than becoming       something as mindless as Beerus...There has to be.”

[ @kurogoku​ ]

kurogoku:

     “This should be fine.”

He responded, his tone as cold as the air around them. It was unpleasant to be trekking through such conditions, with no promise of what each moment held, and yet he would persist through it...and hopefully to find something worth his long life. Those thoughts were stolen for a moment, however, by the simple beauty of the phenomenon before them.

     “It’s beautiful, something even amidst this dingy mess...but is it safe?”

He strode forward, putting one hand to the cool stone of the cavern wall. The light colored his palm in a rainbow of hues, but that was it.

     “Hm, let’s set up here. It’s past time that we ate.”

Black would prepare the food hey had preserved, some of it being capsules they had taken from wreckage on Earth. Zamasu settled against one wall, watching his partner, and wondering just what the brooding Saiyan might be thinking. Neither of them had talked much since they had decided to abandon their plan. That had been a long discussion, and it seemed to have stolen all the words from them.

[ @zamcsu​ ]

Earth, once the center of their many plans, was now nothing more than a distant thought. A star far away from the cold gloom of the desolate planet they had fled too. Naturally ugly, as opposed to the filth their own destruction had reduced the previous planet to. Somehow, it seemed a fitting place to reflect on the path ahead.

     “Black, do you see anywhere suitable to spend the night?”

[ @kurogoku ]

trunkc:

Hope. The word had come to make his blood boil, when it had been part of so many of Trunk’s rebuttals to Zamasu’s own monologues. He had thought such things utterly foolish, a product of lives without meanings. Something to cling to for comfort. He had gone as far as to see it as indulgence, as more sin.

“Do you think that hope is what has made you stronger through everything? I wonder...you carry a fierce loyalty to those you care for. Why is it that others don’t seem to share such a sentiment? Your kind wages so much bloodshed for shallow reasons. Where is their loyalty?”

He paused, finally looking up once more at the other. Slowly, he came out of his own thoughts, ones he ha been voicing aloud as they entered his mind, and only now did he realize how far they had gotten.

     “Now I will apologize...I am asking you to explain matters I’ve       spent decades contemplating. And will continue to, it seems.       Am I keeping you from anything?”

[ @trunkc​ ]

trunkc:

For better or worse, it seemed that the deities had rarely made their existence known to humankind. Zamasu had thought himself far above them all, and now he was hardly sure, but even then he had wanted to be praised. Was it truly so good to remain hidden? How were you to inspire change when your very being was known only as myth?

“I won’t apologize, to endear you to me...for if I had known of your plight, it may have set me down my destructive path even sooner.” His gaze drifted down now, settling on the tea that had long since grown cold. “I’m still struggling to understand the point of it all. You fought so hard for your future, but why? You lost so many, and if the Gods erased your planet, you wouldn’t even know. It would erase all of that pain, that sin...”

[ @trunkc​ ]

trunkc:

Listening to the other open up about the traumatic even was strangely conflicting. It was clearly a painful memory for Trunks and that incited some pity from the Kai...and yet. His friend was senselessly killed thanks to the violence bred by their society. Time and time again, Zamasu failed to see an answer for this sin other than extinction. Even so, Trunks had found another way. Was there merit in his path?

“Your world was ravaged by the androids, correct? If the Gods had stepped in to stop such blasphemy, the creation of artificial life, things might have ended up very differently. Doesn’t that frustrate you?”

[ @trunkc ]

trunkc:

     “I suppose we all judge others’ qualities by our own standards...”

Yet another mistake he had made, to see only through the lens of his own ideals. There was a fine line between holding to ones convictions and letting them dictate a narrow point of view, and he had crossed it and then some.

“In the end, it’s what we see in our own reflection, isn’t it?” I saw a God once, and then only a twisted monster. My ideals were truly so gruesome, I...Heaving a heavy sigh, Zamasu’s face took on a look of exasperation. “Trunks, have you ever gone through such a change? To feel as though everything you knew had been a lie, or that you had been so blind to an obvious truth?”
