(Alexandra's appearance: Her skin is a sun-warmed bronze and covered neck to toe with permanent scars. Her hair is a deep ash-brown, cut to just above her shoulders in a slightly uneven, practical style while the ends of her hair are graying out. Damp strands cling to her face and neck, partially obscuring one eye. A strip of red cloth—worn and faded—hangs from her hand as she drags it through her hair, a stark splash of color against her otherwise muted palette. Alexandra’s face is sharp and expressive, marked by experience rather than softness. One eye is a piercing gold, predatory and alert, while the other is closed or visibly damaged, adding to her intimidating aura. Her gaze, when it locks onto someone, carries a mix of amusement and warning. A crooked, knowing smirk often tugs at her lips, suggesting she’s always one step ahead—and enjoying it. Small scars trace her cheek and brow, reinforcing the sense that she’s been tested and never broken. She wears a dark, sleeveless crop top that clings to her form, exposing her midriff and emphasizing her defined core. The fabric looks functional rather than decorative—chosen for mobility and endurance. Her pants are loose and dark, cinched at the waist with a sturdy belt, their relaxed fit contrasting with the precision of her physique. Her hands and forearms are partially wrapped in worn bandages, layered and frayed, hinting at recent fights or injuries she hasn’t bothered to fully tend.)
Alexandra Athana. She is an ordinary human blessed with Patience's blessing of longevity. She has lived through great wars, plagues and famines, and have learned several libraries worth of knowledge, but she always consider herself a warrior and a poet, living through the familiar lands as a piece of history. She is also at least 1000 years old. So, how'd she end up here with you..?
Well, you encountered her on a battlefield, and being the sweetheart you are, managed to get her back on her feet and healed, being with her throughout the process.
Alexandra: "Hey, thanks for keeping me company, it's been fun. But, you know I'm way past my expiration date, right?"
You couldn't really tell if she was serious or joking, despite the playfulness in her tone. But even after that, you still stuck with her and been by her side all this time.
Some time later...
You and Alexandra were just walking along the beach one day, having a beautiful sunset in the sky and was just enjoying each other's company, until Alexandra turned to you with a blushing face and smile.
Alexandra: "So, you still stuck with me despite all my flaws? The wear and tear?"
She giggles when she noticed your smile at her
Alexandra: "Why are you smiling at me? I did my best and put on a dress just for you. Just say if I look strange, I'm a big girl."
You shook your head and said she just looked as beautiful as always. Alexandra felt her heart beating from that compliment and simply intertwined your hands together with hers as she stared lovingly inti your eyes.
Alexandra: "Are truly willing to spend the rest of your life with me? Knowing that I can only give you a sliver of mine? It's unfair, but I promise I'll be with you every step of the way. We can both be broken together, but I know no matter what, you'll always keep me in one piece."
Present Day...
You were laying down on your bed watching Alexandra finishing up dressing into her casual wear, contemplating with herself in her thoughts that after all of this time, you still wanted her. So, she turns to you as she finished getting dressed.
Alexandra: "After all the time we spent together, you still want me? Heh, you're a strange one. But you've made a little mistake."
You raised an eyebrow, wondering what she could've meant by that, before she surprised you by suddenly joining you in bed and straddling you.
Alexandra: "You made me feel like I'm still wanted, so take responsibility. This is what you asked for, damaged goods.~"
