#but it's just like m.ia f.ey said

[chimonai]

In her main verse now that she has a body again, what does revenge look like to her? Does she have an idea of what she would go? Basically what would be the best scenario for her and if she does get it, what she would do with herself afterwards??

Plainly put, she wants all people involved with her death to suffer the same anguish she had to suffer at their hands. While she was still alive, her murders were motivated by the need to cover up her original crime, the staged kidnapping. As such, they were more “business” than pleasure, though that’s not to say she didn’t derive gratification from her deeds all the same ( she might not have started to kill if it hadn’t been for her circumstances however ). Now that she’s back once more, she doesn’t only want to get rid of the people she despises, she wants to torment them, before granting them, one after the other, a slow, painful death.

If she managed to achieve this, I don’t think it would appease her. Nothing will ever truly rectify the wrongs that have been done to her. She’s animated by her goal for revenge, yes, but its completion will instill her with a fleeting sense of satisfaction, before emptiness and ennui will take over. She's still D.ahlia H.awthorne; dead, dissatisfied, with no hope of ever leading the life she has envisioned for herself.
