Bastion Miles

Once upon a time I was a solider. Demons called me 'the Grimm' for I was their reaper.

Infected by Green Goblin.

"All my life I was a weapon. I was made to kill the wrong people for all the wrong reasons. Ignorance isn't bliss; it's a poison.

No more. Never again.

I'm no reaper.
I'm just a man trying to make amends."

Socially awkward do-gooder

Penned by experienced and friendly Scribe

[Bastion Miles @SarielNorde]

It's a thankless job.
But somebody had to do it.

You know you are human when it stings and haunts you nonetheless.

[Miguel O'Hara. @2099Problems]

That 'I don't always like what I have to do, but I know I have to be the one to do it' vibe.

I get it.

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary

do not go gentle into that good night. rage, rage against the dying of the light.

[Bastion Miles @SarielNorde]

He smiled, which was a look he wore well, despite a face that made it look moderately out of place.

"Danke schöne. Thank you, Miss."

"Anyone can be redeemed if they put in the effort, sounds like you definitely did what you could. I think that deserves recognition. Glad you were able to"

[Bastion Miles @SarielNorde]

"Spent too many years making things wrong. Nein, not everyone can do better. Be damned if I do any less. We take our victories where we can."

He's too old to be a cool kid, but if she's offering... he'll bump.

[sᴇʟɪɴᴀ '𝕄𝕚𝕤𝕤 𝕎𝕖𝕓' ᴄᴀʙᴇʟʟᴏ @InventingWebs]

"Well, I'm glad you were able to set things right at least. Not everyone can say they did"

Offering him a fist bump

[ᅟᅟgibson girl, @sainticide]

i don't care if i'm damned. i'll break every rule, tear every damn reality, and i WILL get my happy ending.

[Bastion Miles @SarielNorde]

"We were a compound of coyotes, picking apart the corpses of what we didn't understand until we'd taken every useful scrap."

"It hurt them to lose that tech the day I left."

His eyes ignite with the memory of fire and freedom.

"I set it right. That's how I sleep at night."

[sᴇʟɪɴᴀ '𝕄𝕚𝕤𝕤 𝕎𝕖𝕓' ᴄᴀʙᴇʟʟᴏ @InventingWebs]

"Dang, that's... Actually impressive they managed to take tech from a group that basically controls the multiverse... Concerning, but impressive. Hope it's... Well, from the sounds of it, it wasn't used responsibly, but I hope it hasn't caused too many issues"

[Bastion Miles @SarielNorde]

"Old commanders borrowed their technology."

"Easy to steal and hold control when you can re-write reality to suit you."

"Breaking free of that illusion is a gargantuan endeavor. But, Hope's a fighter."

"That Spider stubbornness, und a support system, will help with that."

[sᴇʟɪɴᴀ '𝕄𝕚𝕤𝕤 𝕎𝕖𝕓' ᴄᴀʙᴇʟʟᴏ @InventingWebs]

Sounds like a long process

I'm sure they've got it under control though

Didn't know you knew the TVA that well though

[Bastion Miles @SarielNorde]

If TVA's brain recoding is a fraction of what I've seen, he knows what they've buried beneath tungsten and concrete.

He just needs a jackhammer, C-4, diamond-cutting claws, and perhaps a priest to wrest it free.

Und regular doses of touch therapy.

Ja. That'd do him good.

[sᴇʟɪɴᴀ '𝕄𝕚𝕤𝕤 𝕎𝕖𝕓' ᴄᴀʙᴇʟʟᴏ @InventingWebs]

At a certain point, I'm pretty sure Miguel does remember things but is being stubborn

[Bastion Miles @SarielNorde]

The tapping of a woman's foot is a timebomb ticking.

Correct yourself, or start running.

[Bastion Miles @SarielNorde]

I know that face.

Like looking in a mirror.

... If I were carved with softer edges, less gruff and scruff in places.

[Bastion Miles @SarielNorde]

Call me a villain for the blood on my hands.

Call me a traitor for all the knives buried in people's backs.

Call me a devil for whispering your demise in the ears of one who cares.

Call me the dream-eater. As God is my witness, you'll eat them unto reality.

[Bastion Miles @SarielNorde]

"We are men in love with Peter B. Parker."

"I'll give him what he needs to keep 𝘺𝘰𝘶 on your feet."

[Peter B. Parker @BrokeOldSpidey]

"Don't give him ADVICE!"

[Bastion Miles @SarielNorde]

@2099Problems Ja. That tracks.

Good luck. Here's mein card.

For the inevitable furniture repairs.

[Bastion Miles @SarielNorde]

Be gentle with him now.

Dispose of the remaining smokes in secret later.

Or do it in front of his nose.
For the spite.

[Miguel O'Hara. @2099Problems]

The look I give @BrokeOldSpidey when I smell smoke on him.

...He has seemed a little tense lately, though. Guess I should give him a break and not bite his head off about it.

@AGingerJackpot Inside is bread. Fresh. The kind that crackles a symphony when you give it a squeeze.

There's also a jar rich yellow butter packed along with and a bottle of amber honey.

[Bastion Miles @SarielNorde]

@AGingerJackpot
Old man flips the lady a polite salute.

"Frau Watson, guten abend."

[Bastion Miles @SarielNorde]

@AGingerJackpot "On alert tonight. Moon's out. Prudent to keep an ear to the ground."

"Und... I wanted to deliver this."

He hadn't been holding anything a moment ago. Now there is a neatly folded paper parcel in his outstretched palm.

"It's polite to give offer gifts to your neighbours."
