Family Ties

[David B.]

Hyperion blinked a moment or two before chuckling to himself a bit.

"Alright. While your doing that, shout at him for me too. You don't need to say anything in particular. Just scream at his face for a few minutes. That will make my night."

He would grin and open the door, letting her out first to head down the side tunnel so he could move back up to the group to wait for her.

[Kyrie Blaze]

Kyrie would slowly nod and then release the Titan's hand to make her way out and down into the dark.

Once she got to the cell, she cast a baleful look at the bars - yelling at him on this side wouldn't do or mean anything aside from the fact that she was yelling at a prisoner - and jumped shadows to get inside the cell with a breath.

She turned those ice blue eyes to Scene as she strode up to look him in the eye and did what she said she was going to do.

She yelled.

"Connard! Pourquoi voudriez-vous faire cela!? —que Hyperion vous tuerait?! Je sais je l'ai dit de ne pas utiliser vos qi sur les Titans, mais je ne pense pas que vous le feriez jouer avec moi! Fils de pute! Pourquoi, Scene?!"

She was worked up enough that she might do something drastic and unlike herself...like hit him. And before she knew it, before she could stop to think to herself or let him answer, she did, eyes bright with frustration, anger, the tears of all that and...and yet there was relief, too.

SPOILER: Click to show

"Bastard! Why would you do that!? —that Hyperion would kill you?! I know I said not to use your qi on the Titans [specifically], but I did not think you would toy with me! Son of a bitch! Why, Scene?!"

[David B.]

Scene didn't say anything for several minutes, but once she hit him would feel a lance of pleasure down his spine. After hitting him she might notice he seemed to be sweating, with circles under his eyes. He had an infection. But he would still stand and smile.

"I had to know if you would save my life...so I could decide if I should save yours. And even at the cost of your own you would so...I will do the same. It's only fair, isn't it?"

He would giggle.

"vous êtes sacrément sexy quand votre pissé de si..."

[Kyrie Blaze]

For a second, she thought about not moving as Scene shifted to stand from his sitting position, and then backed off, eyes narrow. She was angry with him, because while he had played little reality-warping games on her before, it hadn't been with something like this. She was frustrated that he would toy with her, and even a bit hurt.

And it blinded her to his condition. He nearly finished his return in French when her hand connected to his mask again. But instead of following through, her fingers caught hold to drag him down.

"Stupide. Imbécile."

She kissed him. It was brief, but, relief warred with frustration; she was glad it wasn't true and relieved Hyperion actually hadn't done that. That he'd done that to manipulate her to see how she would respond instead of just asking was hurtful and even infuriating and a little terrifying. She would pull away, wide-eyed, letting him go.

Some other things were finally being caught on to. Her eyes flickered on his face.

"Scene..? You have a fever."

His lips were dry and hot, and now she could see the fever-brightness of his eyes.

[Scene]

Scene smiled faintly, clearly a little overtaken by the kiss.

"What do you expect, after that."

Meaning her lips, despite it being obvious that he had the fever before her lips had touched his. He would stumble against her, so she would probably have to catch him. He could get rid of it if he had his powers but...he promised not to use them. So...he wouldn't.

At least, not anymore.

[Kyrie Blaze]

Her anger was diffused with this knowledge, though she turned red. She'd just kissed him? That was completely out of the norm for her, but, she couldn't really dwell on it as she had to catch and hold him up.

And now she felt guilty for yelling at him.

Stupid Scene, indeed. Her brow crumpled as she snugged her arms around him to guide him back to sit him down.

"Scene... What can I do to help? Arianna can come and look, but..."

It wasn't like she knew any healers. And they didn't have that kind of medicine.

[Scene]

Scene lay down, waving her off weakly.

"I'm fine... theres no reason. I'll either be executed or set free and...its just from the cuts. I may or may not have some issues with wounds getting infected quicker than most. Don't know why."

He smirked.

"Eos...will kill me later. So...I'll be going before she gets down here. Don't be surprised when she comes running for you."

[Kyrie Blaze]

"...can you do something about it with your qi..?"

Kyrie frowned a little, but nodded otherwise. She could handle him leaving...she would just have to be careful. She didn't know Eos or how she would react. Would it be similar to Hyperion?

[Scene]

Scene grinned.

"Sure. But I can't use my powers...for selfish reasons. So I'll let it burn off. You didn't come down here, I hope, just to yell and kiss me? That would be a waste of time. We could fuck a bit if you'd like."

He giggled.

[Kyrie Blaze]

She could feel heat creep up her neck, and a bit of humiliation and frustration. The blonde pressed her lips together and then quietly turned away.

"I only came down to yell at you, to be honest. Rest up, Scene."

She shook her head and would leave him.

[Scene]

Scene would call out.

"Wait. I have a gift for you."

He sat up and reached under the bed...pulling out a hoodie that was covered in dust. He shook it out and smirked.

"Take it for the battle. Don't muss it up, I expect to get it back."

He held it out to her.


OOC: Gift given to Kiyr from Scene

Forbidden Hoodie: +16 Cha (Upgraded Once)

This hoodie can hide the user from notice (Invisible), or make them the center of attention (Force attention to them). As such if the user is wearing this hoodie it can make their negotiation abilities greater. (Power can be used once per thread)

[Kyrie Blaze]

Kyrie paused as Scene implored her to wait. She turned back and watched with quiet curiosity until she finally tilted her head. Her qi slipped to go hook the jacket and bring it to her.

She blinked at the difference it made and exhaled quietly.

"Thank you, Scene. I will try to keep it from being damaged." Her tone was laced with genuine gratitude despite the quiet with which she spoke. If there was nothing else she would slip it on and take her leave.

[Scene]

Scene would giggle and nod, laying back down and watching her go...especially those hips.

Mmmmmm....dem hips!

***********************************************

Hyperion would turn to Kiyr as she approached, blinking.

"How did the yelling go?"

And he was genuinely interested! He liked it when people that weren't him got shouted at.

[Kyrie Blaze]

Kyrie sighed as she quit the darkened tunnels and tentatively smiled at Hyperion.

"Well enough. I think I feel better."

And worse. He had a fever and his cuts were infected, after all. Slapping him was out of the norm for her, so she felt guilty enough, but the other portions only compounded her guilt.

[Scene]

Hyperion cocked an eyebrow, clearly not convinced, but would nod.

"Lets eat, then we need to rest up for the mission tomorrow."
