I would love love to write Josie with more people! She's so fun! If you'd like to do some threads with her let me know here or in a PM! A lot of threads with her would need to be AU but we could absolutely work out some canon ideas too!

Number Generators Choice... 11. Getting drunk. Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream It was a good feeling - the burning sensation of the whiskey as it slid down her throat, the way it made her light-headed and giggly. The music was probably a bit too loud, and was going to draw the wrong kind of attention but she was enjoying herself. It was her own private party, a celebration for finally reaching Alpha.
Josie had finished of a drink that was more alcohol then anything else and showed no signs of slowly down. She was enjoying herself to much. She hummed softly while pouring another drink, this time a little bit stronger, not thinking anyone would disturb her. Of course that wasn't the case.
As she was moving back across the room, in front of the door, it opened right into her, sending her stumbling forward, and spilling the new drink. She was probably more drunk than she thought because seeing it on the ground made her want to cry. "God damn it," she pouted. "Don't you ever knock?"

Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream If there was ever a man that was the walking, talking definition of a red flag, it was the one now stood before her. Josie was staring up at him with a lack of recognition, something that he might find irritating considering the face she was wearing. She'd been in possession of this body for a few days now. She was using it t infiltrate the inner circle of their visitors, and had not finished sorting through Clarke's memories. Maybe if she had have, she would have recognized him sooner.
What she did recognize was the look in his eyes; it was the same, unhinged expression her father had when he'd killed her all those years ago. It made her uncomfortable and afraid. She took a step back to put some distance between them, something Clarke would never had done. It showed weakness. Josie wasn't a fighter though. Not physically, at least. She swore she head warning bells in her head. "McCreary." His name left her lips slowly, the taste of each syllable making her sick to her stomach. He was a prisoner, a bad man, she recalled. There was a flash of memories, him in front of her, his closed fist hitting her face. Her cheek ached just thinking about it.
He thought she was Clarke. Of course he did, she was possessing her body, pretending to be her. And he wanted to kill her. Crap. Josie lifted her hands up, her palms facing him. "There's a few things you need to know before you do anything you'll regret." How did she even begin to explain this to him? Hi, I'm not Clarke so please don't kill me? Yeah, right.
"If you try to kill me now, you will fail, and you will be killed. Not because of Bellamy or Diyoza, but because ever guard in Sanctum will protect me." Josie said, looking him in the eyes, hoping desperately that he heeded her words. "And the reason why will protect me is because I'm not Clark. I'm Josephine Lightbourne, a Prime of Sanctum."

[ wrap ] for your muse to walk into the room and say nothing before wrapping their arms around my muse. Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream It had been a hard day. Between the strangers, her father and her mother, her everlasting obsession with Gabriel and his hatred for her, Josie was burnt out. She was draindc, physically and emotionally. She wanted to crawl into bed and not wake up for a week - she wanted to forget everything that had happened - wanted everything to go back to normal, whatever the hell that was these days. It had been the worst day she'd had in years.
Josie threw open the door to Malia's bedroom, letting it smack into the wall to emphasis her mood. She hadn't stopped to consider whether the other woman was sleeping or not, she just knew that Malia was one of the few people she still had in her life that cared about her. Finding the other woman was in the room was a relief and Josie found herself in front of her without even moving.
Her arms wrapped around Malia, pulling her into a tight embrace so that there was no space between them. Josie hide her face against the side of Malia's neck and just held onto her. She hadn't known how much she had missed this kind of contact, the kind born from friendship and loyalty until she met this woman. And she knew that in the moment she just wanted Malia to hold her.

20. Watching a bad reality TV show. Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream Oh, this was just to good to be true. Josie grinned like a Cheshire cat as she stood in the doorway, watching the horrible T.V show with mild amusement, knowing that Malia would never normally be caught dead enjoying it. It was the worst kind, with horrible acting, and cheesy dialogue, the kind that was advertised as 'reality' but was entirely scripted. She laughed out loud when one of the stars said something outrageous and ridiculous: was this one of Malia's guilty pleasures?
Still grinning, she locked eyes with the woman from across the room, the expression on her face teasing. "Enjoying some quality T.V, I see." Josie hadn't called ahead, hadn't told Malia that she would be stopping by this afternoon. No, she'd simply let herself in, as she normally did now that they were good friends. And boy was glad she had because she would never have caught Malia in the act if she'd known she was coming.

Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream The expression on her face was difficult to describe: Josie looked at him with obvious recognition but also like he was a stranger. He was still himself--she could see his handsome face beneath the scraggly beard. She found it so confusing, and it made her head hurt the way her memories overlapped with reality; his younger face was there, shadowed by his older one. Josie swallowed the lump in her throat.
Everything bout him was the same but also so different. Or was she imagining that too? Josie turned away from him when he explained his reason for walking in without knocking. He was the same caring, sweet, boy she'd fallen in love with. Obsessed with her. That thought made her smile despite her turmoil. "I'm fine." Except she wasn't; it was a bold-faced lie. She wasn't fine. She was struggling.
"I'm just..." she started, her arms crossing protectively against her chest. Josie didn't know how to approach what she was feeling, what he was feeling. Before... she'd been killed... they had been lovers, obsessed with each other in many ways. Did he feel the same after all these years? Did he look at her in this strangers body and still feel love for her?
Josie turned back to him, really looked at him, his body changed by the hands of time, and she didn't see an old man but the boy she'd come to love. And she knew that he still loved him. "It's just a little weird, is all." MADE BY VEL OF GS + ADOXOGRAPHY 2.0

Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream Josie knew that she was doomed the moment their lips touched: forever would not be long enough with him. The taste of him was addictive, and it invaded her senses when he parted his lips, which she took as an invitation to explore with her tongue. He left her head swimming and her heart racing when he drew away. It was a struggle to open her eyes - she wanted to stay in that moment forever. But when she did, she looked at his mouth first, the feel of which was lingering on her own, and then she looked into his eyes.
Her own eyes were glossy, almost clouded with emotion and desire as she watched him, waiting for him to say something, hoping that this feeling was mutual, and so certain that it was. When he closed the distance between them without a word her heart skipped into overdrive. A moan escaped her as she pushed against him, shifting to straddle him, lost in the moment and moving fast.
The sound of pens and paper and books hitting the ground thudded around them when she knocked them aside. The creak of the chair was audible as it strained beneath their combined weight, but it didn't stop her. Josie wrapped an arm around his shoulders to pull him closer, her hand stroking through his hair as she kissed him deeper, harder, with more passion. Every teasing comment and sidelong glance was in that kiss, every desire and emotion she felt for him wrapped between their lips.

Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream It felt like an eternity had passed by as she waited for him, which was completely unacceptable. Josie's appetite was insatiable, especially when it came to Gabriel. It seemed that every day she found new, and pleasurable ways to torment him. Like making flirty comments, or teasingly brushing against him when it was entirely unnecessary, or softly stroking his thigh beneath the dinner table. And normally he did not hesitate to return the affection, provided that her father was not nearby. Russell intimidated Gabriel, she was sure.
And knowing that made it all the more enjoyable to tease him in front of her father and his colleagues. Except he'd be busy, and she hated that. Josephine desired attention, and attention she would get. Right then. And not a moment later. So there she was waiting in his room, when he opened the door and closed it behind him. The look in her eyes was unmistakable. It was obvious what she wanted; from the way her shirt was opened to expose just a glimpse of her cleavage, to the way she approached him with slow and purposely steps.
"We're using full names, now?" She mused aloud, clicking her tongue thoughtfully as she stopped just in front of him. Her brown eyes looked at the books and paperwork in his grasp, and she smirked ever so slightly. He wouldn't be needing them tonight. "Does that mean I'm in trouble, Gabriel?" She asked the question softly, teasingly, as though the thought of him punishing her was arousing. And it was. Maybe that was why she pushed his buttons. That and he was adorable when he was flustered. Maybe it was just because she was addicted to him and couldn't control herself when he was near.

Josie's Soundtrack
I'm Not Calling You a Liar By: Florence & the Machine
This is such a beautiful and haunting song, especially the orchestral version played in Dragon Age: 2. To me it represents a more desperate side of Josie when it comes to her feelings for Gabriel. I think she is hopelessly in love with him, and desperate to be with him again, but she is not the woman she once was. She is a changed woman but despite all these changes she loves him so much, is so willing to be with him, that she would let him kill her.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm not calling you a liar Just don't lie to me I'm not calling you a thief Just don't steal from me I'm not calling you a ghost Just stop haunting me And I love you so much I'm gonna let you Kill me
There's a ghost in my lungs And it sighs in my sleep Wraps itself around my tongue As it softly speaks Then it walks then it walks with my legs
To fall To fall To fall at your feet Oh but for the grace of god go on And when you kiss me I'm happy enough to die
I'm not calling you a liar Just don't lie to me And I love you so much I'm gonna let you I'm not calling you a thief Just don't And I love you so much I'm gonna let you Oh I'm not calling you a ghost Just don't
There's a ghost in my mouth And it talks in my sleep Wraps itself around my tongue As it softly speaks Then it walks then it walks Then it walks with my legs
To fall To fall To fall To fall To fall To fall at your feet Oh but for the grace of god go on And when you kiss me I'm happy enough

Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream Your lips, my lips, apocalypse...
The lyrics circled in her brain like a beautiful and haunting memory, the song of their relationship. And yet in spite of all the flirty comments shared between them, neither had made a move for more. Her father had been clear in his warning - give the brilliant geneticist his space. And for the most part she had: after all, a brokenhearted scientist wouldn't be much help when they mapped the stares or explored Alpha planet. But Josephine wouldn't listen forever. Gabriel was like a delicate poison invading every one of her thoughts.
And that was how she found herself in his room once again, sitting on his desk as he worked at it. He was so handsome when he concentrated. His brows would pull together as he worked to solve a particularly hard equation, how he tried so hard to focus when she tried so hard to distract him. Maybe this was what love felt like. Maybe it was lust. Whatever it was Josie knew that she wanted more. She wanted him in every way possible.
Josie moved without saying a word, slipping off the desk until she was standing beside him, so close, silently begging him to look at her. And when he didn't, whether because he just hadn't noticed or was trying hard to not give in, she moved closer again. He was lower than her in his seated position which made it easier to lean down toward him. With her palm against his cheek she turned his face toward her, her lips coming against his in what would be their first kiss.
Maybe she should have said something, asked him. But god all she could think about was his mouth, the taste of his lips, how electric his kiss was.

Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream
Josie's was stroking her fingers through the dark-head of hair in her lap. The sound of Malia's soft breaths filling the room, adding to the peace of the moment. The woman had been a stranger until recently but over the last few days they had grown closer, friendlier, which was a pleasant surprise. Josie wouldn't have likely gotten this close with her back on Earth, not that there was anything wrong with her. It was just that they were vastly different and were apart of different social circles.
By some divine miracle they had met and now here they were, resting on one of the couches in Sanctum, Malia's head in Josie's lap. It even sounded like Malia was drifting of to sleep. She didn't mind. All that mattered was Malia, the silky softness of her hair, the warmth of it in her lap, the peaceful look on her face. Josie wagered her life had been a long fight and moments like this one were likely to be rare. She was grateful to be able to share it.
With a sweep of her palm she moved a few strands of hair from Malia's face, smiling as she leaned down and pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead, letting her lips linger. "You're safe here," she whispered, her breath warm against the other woman's forehead. "You can sleep if you like." Josephine could guarantee her safety within the walls of Sanctum.

Josie's Soundtrack
Apocalpse By: Cigarettes After Sex
So this song is in the show! And I think it's perfect for Josie and Gabriel They are star-crossed lovers and when them come together it's bound to ended in an apocalypse.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You leapt from crumbling bridges watching cityscapes turn to dust Filming helicopters crashing in the ocean from way above
Got the music in you baby, tell me why Got the music in you baby, tell me why
You've been locked in here forever and you just can't say goodbye Kisses on the foreheads of the lovers wrapped in your arms You've been hiding them in hollowed out pianos left in the dark
Got the music in you baby, tell me why Got the music in you baby, tell me why You've been locked in here forever and you just can't say goodbye
Your lips, my lips, apocalypse Your lips, my lips, apocalypse Go and sneak us through the rivers flood is rising up on your knees, oh please Come out and haunt me, I know you want me Come out and haunt me
Sharing all your secrets with each other since you were kids Sleeping soundly with the locket that she gave you clutched in your fist
Got the music in you baby, tell me why Got the music in you baby, tell me why
You've been locked in here forever and you just can't say goodbye You've been locked in here forever and you just can't say goodbye
Oh, when you're all alone, I will reach for you When you're feeling low, I will be there, too

Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream The last thing she remembered after being resurrection was the pain. And then there was fear. It carried over into this new life like a cruel dream. The memories came in rapid flashes as her mind was uploaded: Gabriel's handsome face, the taste of his lips, the eclipse, her mother dying in her arms, the twisted look on her fathers face as he drove the axe into her body. Josie remembered laying on the forest floor as the sounds of gunshots echoed through the trees, her father on a rampage. Then she was screaming, begging them to stop before falling to the floor in an attempt to escape the two men standing over her resurrected self.
She shuddered, and forced the deep panic beneath the surface. But it was hard. Josie had only been alive for a few days now, and coming to terms with what had happened, understanding and accepting it, was no easy task. She was trying to be able to look at her father with the same love she had before he'd killed her, but every time flashes of the axe in his hand entered her mind. And every time her throat would constrict to silence the screams welling up in her chest.
She jumped when the bedroom door opened unexpectedly, and whipped around to face the intruder with an expression that was fierce to hide her turmoil. Except she caught her reflection in the mirror. "You startled me. Don't you ever knock anymore?" She was staring at herself, not Gabriel like she should have been. She was... different. Emotionally, mentally... physically. Just staring in the mirror showed that. She was still blonde, but her hair was a bit shorter. And her eyes were a different shade. Even her features were different. She didn't know how to process the changes, dint't know how to accept them.
