Crossed lines (SDS x MHA)

Chapter 13- No Daring Escapes Here

You know? At some point, hanging on the wall is actually really relaxing!

The way your arms had turned numb hours ago and were now tingling as though your nerves were on fire? It was so nice now, the way your jaw ached because of the forceful way the gag was shoved back in your mouth? Oh, it felt like heaven in here with a personal masseuse.

Oh, wait, who was that? Sarcasm? Nice to see you again.

No, you were ready to hang yourself with your own arms just to stop the suffering, the only thing that stopped you was the fact that the gag that Tentacle Porn tried to shut you up with had been easily dislodged and was now on the floor.

It seemed that irritating people past the point of doing their jobs was a specialty of yours.

And of course, the irritating hummer from next door had finally decided to start talking. It really shouldn't have surprised you... Just going off how much he was irritating you with his endless chatter, you had no doubt that he frustrated the guards enough that they didn't secure his gag.

Just like you had.

Honestly, this man probably would've had you rolling on the floor had you not been in such a crabby mood, but here you were.

"I appreciate the way you spoke to him," He said, far too happily for your tastes, "The last person who was in there did nothing but cry and whine when they got hit once or twice... You know? I can only think of one person who sassed our dear old guards quite like that over the years!"

Oh, he was far too happy for someone who had been in here for years.

He paused, quite obviously fishing for a response, and while you dearly wanted to keep ignoring him just to spite his cheerfulness, there was literally nothing to do besides think about your shoulders hurting, "Oh?" Your voice was raspy from disuse, "And who would that be?"

It was surprising how much sound was able to filter through the walls, I mean, you couldn't really see them, but they certainly weren't top of the line soundproofing material. Even with what little you could see in the dark cell, it was pretty obvious that the mortar between the stones was crumbling

Okay, So besides the fact that you could see far too much of an unidentified liquid on the wall, what else did you have happening? You could hear him, and he could apparently hear you, which became clear as he snorted in response to your quiet question, "Please, isn't that obvious?" He said, and you could practically feel the eyeroll that punctuated his words, "It was me!"

Oh dear. Yep, he was one cocky son-of-a-gun, wasn't he?

Your whole face hurt as you grinned in spite of yourself, "Was it obvious?" You said as sweetly as your sore, dry throat could manage, "To me, it sounds more like a desperate man thinking he's the center of the world."

Were you just preconditioned to say the snarkiest things that entered your mind anymore?

At least this guy couldn't set you on fire if he wasn't in the room with you... And he was probably chained to the wall too, so that was an extra layer of safety from your continued idiocy.

Thankfully, instead of getting offended, the man sniggered, "At least I wanted to be here, what did you do? Kick a knight in the balls while yelling about the sins?"

Oh, if only it was that simple, "Not quite," You grumbled. "It's more like I shot myself in the foot and claimed to be a member of the sins."

As if your body was trying to send you a cruel reminder, your face throbbed viciously and you rolled your eyes.
