David snirked.
"You got taken by Mitsoumi. Honestly, if he wanted to take any of us, he would have done so with just as much resistance. Feeling had about that is pointless."
He took another drink.
"Did I put up a good fight?"

Bastille shook her head. "Im a trained assassin who's slept with you....what do you think. It was rather nostalgic though." She said smirking. She leaned her head to the side. "remember the library...I got poetic."

David blinked, then laughed.
"Damn. You put it out there just like that. Well, if you pulled that again, I guess I can understand why I went down so easily. Unlike some."
Ah, penis jokes.
"How did I go out?"

Bastille just rolled her eyes.
"Look, some can joke about killing their friends and past lovers, me included...but only to a point...can we change the subject....it wasn't exactly a holiday"

David shrugged.
"It wasn't real, Bastille. It wasn't you. Only in your head could you kill me without a fight."
A grin.

Bastille just shrugged. "Doesn't make it any better, David. A knight doesn't kill those she's sworn loyalty too...period."

David's eyebrow rose in mock surprise.
"Sworn loyalty? Where was I at this ceremony...? I can remember on several occasions you promising to kill me."

"You know as well as I...I never actually gave it a shot. I never would. Never will." She said quietly.

He smiled and set down his cup.
"Yeah. I figured that was the case, what with the ring around your neck."
He assumed the ring was still there- he saw the chain and remember her words from the island, after all.
"You want me to go get your stuff? Bags, clothes, etcetera? It would be nice to punch Barker in the mouth again anyway."

"No." She bit her lip. "I can't be that much a coward, I'll get them tomorrow...after the murderous rage goes away"

David eyed her.
"Got it. Well, the room at the back of the hall directly at the end is mine. The one on the right is yours. There is a dresser and a closet so...You can stay til your feeling better."

"I'll be out of your hair in the morning" Bastille said reassuringly. She got to her feet and went to walk back to the room...looking into the empty place with a short snort. Her brows furrowed- an odd mixture of emotions passing over her face.

David spoke from behind her.
"Not the coziest I know. Would you like to sleep in my bed instead?"
He spoke it sarcastically, assuming her snort was dissatisfaction.

"Sure" She said under her breathe before she shook it off and walked into the room. "no, it's fine"-- as if trying to cover up for her earlier answer.

David laughed, following her in.
"Hey, no need to backpedal. My beds a King, all cozy. Would probably make your job a lot easier."
His Qi let him hear everything. She knew that, so he would address it. As for her job? Yeah, he would explain why he was being so kind and cryptic.
"You come by here after rarely stopping by, after being gone a month. You display a surprising adjustment to your emotions, and openly admit you were forced to kill me, your kids...lots of awesome stuff. Sorry to say it Bastille, but even if you don't see it, something is way off. Whatever they did to you- it's hiding somewhere inside that little noggin of yours, and while I fully intend to find out where you went and what happened to you, I also know that Barkers or even strikes labs don't just let someone go to funzies. Feel free to sleep in bed, with me, it it makes you feel safe. Because even though we pretty mch haven't talked since you were married, I still love and trust you. And besides, you couldn't kill me even if you were laying right next to me. Burden I bear."
Once again, his Qi would keep that from happening. He would turn to go from the room, having made t obvious he cared, but that knowing what she just told him, also knew she wasn't just hunky dory and probably still had some plan for his death.
"I'll make us some lunch, yes?"
