word game: cozy

[museaway]

This week's word is...
cozy

How to play: Find the word in any WIP and comment with the sentence containing it. Just the one, ideally! The less context, the more hilarious & interesting it can be.

Rules:
- All fandoms, all ships, all writers welcome
- Give a head's up for disturbing/distressing content
- If you share a sentence, please read some left by other writers and drop at least one person a comment. (If you leave the first comment, thanks for starting us off, and we hope you'll pop back around later!)

Re: WIP Excerpt from the finale of TGH [Fandom: Tomb Raider]

I like how Yulia reframes her place in the world now that she's with Lara. The fact that she's had a tough past is contrasted by the present. The fact that the Red Terror offered no respite, but Lara does. Such a cool detail!

Grateful for that! I'm primarily basing Doppelganger/Yulia's suffering on how totalitarian governments (primarily the USSR and its successor state, russia) throw their knowledgeable and best workers (even those who are the most devout to said totalitarian regimes' crimes) on the chopping block if they dare to not follow the program in the most perfect way. Since I hail from a country that's hit the hardest by the USSR's most horrific actions, and later by russia with its full-scale invasion (Ukraine), I've found myself very fascinated with the Doppelganger's canon story - how would she break the cycle of dictatorship permanently, even if she'd come out of it mentally scarred for years, if not decades?
