she didn’t do it out of the goodness of her heart, nor to protect the frightened and horrified new yorkers within the vicinity. she simply happened to be there. some creature she’s never encountered, who made the mistake of striding right into her crime scene in its chosen path to wreak havoc in. it had taken her all of six seconds to immobilize it — ( fast enough to spare the lives of a few hundred, but not without it leaving a complete wreckage of the entire city block and some first ).
psi stops on her tracks as soon as she senses his impending presence, drops both stolen money bags on either side of her feet before turning back around. her head tilts, curious eyes vigilant, and smirk tugging at her lips as she takes one, two steps toward the famous iron man.
❛ mistress mary, quite contrary,
how does your garden grow ?

and naughty little boys all in a row. ❜
it is both an answer to his question and a warning of sorts — enough for the time being. after all, he hasn’t established himself as a threat. yet.

- IMPORTANT.
- GUIDELINES.
- EXCLUSIVES.
please keep in mind that psi is a villain. she is a psychic and an extremely powerful one at that. she uses telepathy and telekenisis. her empathy cannot be shut off. she is also mentally and emotionally unstable. she won't need a reason to attack your muse, she doesn't have to be pushed to do so and she will if she pleases. given that it's her nature, it would be tiresome for me to individually ask everyone i write with to allow her to use her powers. therefore, if you choose to enter into a thread with her, i will assume that's permission for psi to use her powers on your muse. this includes reading your character's mind, picking up on their emotions, etc, potentially hurting them.

CHARACTERIZATION
my portrayal of gayle/psi is canon divergent. it is a balance i have created based on dctv and comics. not entirely one or the other. it is my own interpretation based on elements of what is known about her. please be mindful of this.ACTIVITY
[baymax voice]: i am not fast. this is an extremely selective and low activity blog, and it is not my main one. expect replies to be slow.WRITING
if we're mutuals, feel free to come into my inbox to plot, throw starters my way or send me memes even if we've never interacted before. that said, unless it's canon (ie. psi vs. supergirl), please don't write my muse attacking yours, or using her powers on yours in unplotted starters. she is a villain, yes, and she's inclined to attack if she feels like it, yes, but whether or not she does is MY decision to make.EXCLUSIVITY
i'm always open to write with more than one iteration of a character, but i do have a list of muses i'm exclusive with. if i choose not to write with you, please know that it's not personal and has nothing to do with you or your writing..NSFW & TRIGGERS
nsfw stuff will be tagged as such. as for triggers, there's a 100% chance that they will appear given the nature of the character. i'll tag all triggers as trigger cw.RELATIONSHIPS
psi isn't easy to ship with given who she is. that said, i'm definitely open to exploring her in different types of relationships so let me know if you're interested and we can work something out!ETC
all the usual guidelines apply. i am not psi, her thoughts/beliefs aren't my own and i do not condone her villainous actions nor do i justify them. READ FIRST
I am only willing to add muses I've extensively plotted and written with on this list. If you ask to be on mine, I'll expect the same from you. If you completely disappear for more than a month without a word or any hint that you'll come back at some point, I'll remove you from this list.

PERSONALITY/DISPOSITION
As Gayle, she is quiet, shy and generally does not fit in well with others. She is sensitive and emotionally fragile. Because of her empathy, she constantly feels what others around her are feeling. She also tends to conform to other people's expectations of her.
As Psi, she generally experiences the same emotions, which is why she is extremely reluctant to kill despite wreaking havoc. Aware of the extent of her capabilities, she tends to be arrogant and appears calm and blasé when confronted. Deep down, she is still the same lonely girl, only masked by her tough and confident exterior.
BIOGRAPHY
Gayle’s psionic powers began to manifest at the age of twelve. Prior to that, she had a pretty regular childhood.
After discovering what she’s capable of, her parents brought her to an institute that specialized in studying extra sensory phenomena where she was supposed to stay in for a month. But her parents died in a road accident during that time. One of the doctors, Dr. Pendergast, petitioned the court to make him her legal guardian.
Dr. Pendergast was always more interested in Gayle’s powers than he was with her. He treated her well, helped her develop her powers but only so he could use and manipulate her. Something that she would only realize later on.
Gayle was twenty when she left the place she could never call home. She took a regular job, supported herself and started living on her own. For a while, she was able to lead a somewhat normal life until her powers proved too much for her to handle and she snapped, quit her job and started going on a robbing spree.
MISCELLANEOUS
While her empathy allows her to understand others, it is extremely difficult for Gayle to form genuine relationships because her power is so strong that she’s generally unable to properly block other people’s emotions. Gayle tends to feel what others feel as her own, therefore making it hard and at times impossible for her to discern which ones are truly hers.
Gayle has never been able to maintain a proper long term relationship. This stems from her general mistrust of the people around her, as well as her anxiety and the added difficulty that being an empath contributes to becoming close to someone else.
