❛ sure. ❜ sarcasm but spoken lightly , not bothered to aggravate the other. too outta breath , you’d say. eyes move to look at the man , lazily lidded , on cue once he spoke , before glancing down at a leg that wasn’t even damaged , it’s just a dent. of course i’m alright. ❛ duh , i’ll be fine. ❜ why do you even care ?
you looks back. maybe it was he started to speak again with that bullshit honeyed tone of his , but you don’t like it. your eyebrows twitch. ❛ i jus’ said that ’m fine. don’t be extra. ❜ can you fucking leave now ?
it is not as though sarcasm crawls into one ear & . out the other . HE HEARS HER . years upon years of the same biting tone , enamel gnashing ‘ gainst enamel ; JUST TRY TO RIP THE SMILE OFF HIS FACE . “ mm , okay , “ hands lazily flop to his knees , fingers drumming a silent tune . SO EASILY WORKED UP . play the game , play the game .
mournfully , he retrieves the mask tied firmly to a band around his thigh . straps snapped back into their typical place , a smile dropping from his lips as it trickles to his demeanor . PLAGUE DOCTOR , PLAGUE DOCTOR , WHO ARE YOU NOW ? all that remains are sky blue curls and the remnants of AIRBORNE DEATH . “ i should probably go now , missy villain , “
