Name:Janis [Retro Girl]
Birthdate:Jul 18
Location:Los Angeles, California, United States


RP Account for Janis aka Retro Girl from PSN's "Powers" Season 1. Played prior to her death, and in AUs.

Mun and muse are 18+. Janis has been doing this since the 40s.



She did not suffer fools. And that was what so many of us really liked about her. She drew a line in the sand about what was good and bad, and what was smart and stupid, and she didn't move the line. She didn't compromise. And that's exactly what we needed her there for. We needed someone to stand there and tell us when we've gone too far. We needed her to be tough on us, to tell us the truth. So when she told us it was going to be alright, we knew that was true, too.

When we would fight the good fight together, when we'd win, she would never celebrate. She would never high five. She would say, "what now?". The moment of victory wasn't enough, "what happens next?", she'd ask, "what did we learn?", "what was ruined that needed to be fixed?". And sometimes the answer was obvious. We knocked something down in the fight, so we needed to pick it up, we needed to fix it. And sometimes the answer wasn't so obvious. Sometimes we couldn't see it right away.

She was talking about the long term effects, like today. She's gone. What happens next?
