                  " I was just a little bit distracted — " he sentenced as he uses his tongue to explore the now open space in his mouth , followed by a sigh before putting his tooth in his pocket and finally getting up from the floor  
                " I hope I can get this fixed ... it's not the worst — but you owe me some food from Jericho now ! "

@zaunbats.           *          ⠀vi sighed,  her eyes being sent into a subtle roll.  he was always so dramatic,  at times it kind of annoyed her more than she cared to admit.  "it was only an accident—  maybe you should learn to block better,  and well..  not with your face preferably."

@bloodfists  
            
                The boy sat there on the floor , staring at the palm of his hand with his tooth on it. The blood pumps out of the open space as his eyes danced between his hand and her eyes.    " My uncle is gonna kill me ... and then you "

            you being here is enough .  staying with me while i sign paperwork is only the bonus of being with you .  
            
            *  a joke ,  with caitlyn's nerves of this gesture being too grand for vi dissipating when she felt the pad of her thumbs on her knuckles .  oh ,  how she loved her .  caitlyn pressed her lips to the top of vi's head in a kiss ,  chaste &* sweet .  *
            
            okay .  time to eat .  i also have alcohol .  not the one you think is too fancy .  i had to go to a zaunite distillery to get this --  this drivel .  truly the most disgusting concoction i've had ,  but since you love it so . . .  oh ,  please just take it .  i'm nervous with you being quiet that way .
            
            

@piltcversprcmise.           *          ⠀[    this treatment,  it was all too foreign to her,  in a way it had made her tempted to reject it all,  refuse to take any of it with open arms,  albeit she couldn't.  a part of her longed for this,  more than was ever cared to be admitted,  though to see it all before her,  it felt too surreal,  like a fever dream she was caught up in.  a small breath parted from gapped lips,  her gaze softening even more so when the female stepped closer,  and as if it were some habit when she drew near,  hands reached out to grab ahold of the others' own.    ]     you could give me dirt for food,  and i'd still eat it ..    [    padding of thumbs brushed along soft knuckles,  a smile finally cracking upon the fighter's visage,  the words spoken so sweetly to her making her heart skip beats.    ]    i'm not familiar with getting people gifts—  so i'm sorry i can't return this favor,  but i promise to make it up to you.

            *  now ,  caitlyn wasn't one to usually spoil but it was / violet / .  violet who has never had 'the good stuff' in her life that caitlyn took for granted in her family manor .  her beloved violet in which was gazing at her with blue-grey hues && features tensed in what she thought was quite endearing .  behind caitlyn was a rather obscene amount of gifts && her attempt at recreating a dish that violet liked .  (  let it be known that caitlyn kiramman has never successfully cooked prior to meeting violet .  )  she crossed the room in a few strides ,  a satisfied smile on her face .  *
            
            time does indeed continue on ,  violet ,  else i wouldn't be here doing all of this .  you aren't my previous trysts or girls i snuck in my room .  you're my partner ,  you're my heart && i love you all the more for it .  this is also ,  um ,  my first time making that dish you liked so if it tastes poorly i've brought forth deliveries in the cooling unit .

      He looks so lost , confused. It was not only like he is seeing a ghost , but the beating was giving him a hard time , barely processing what is going on. The lights blind him , the rain and her voice sound muffled , he is tremendously dizzy and it feels worse than death.   The second she gets up he is somewhat back on his senses , only to be lifted from the floor with a soft grunt of pain , he still had some adrenaline in him , its the only reason he is not laying unconscious on the floor. Barely holding to her , walking slowly , limping. 
            
                 " what's going on ? " he asks , mostly because of who is picking him up , Ez is pretty damn conscious about the beating he just took. He fought some to get off her grasp , pushing her away and leaning his back against a wall , holding to it  he wasn't just going to leave with this person , he doesn't even know if she is real.    " explain to me what the / fuck / are you doing — ? "

@zaunbats.           *          ⠀his hands were freezing,  and for a second vi tensed from his touch,  the pad of her thumb wiping away the traces of blood on his lip before she retracted herself from him.   she stood to her full height,  reaching down and grasping onto his forearm to pull him up beside her,  forcing his arm to sling over shoulder so she was supporting him,  her other hand on his hip.  "let's just get you out of here,  alright?  it's not going to do you any good to just mope out here."  she wouldn't even bother giving him the time to respond,  knowing he'd likely try fighting it,  he was always stubborn,  from what she'd remember that never changed.  the short haired girl began to walk,  dragging him along side her,  the hood of her jacket was drenched,  that it barely served the purpose it was meant for anymore,  she could feel her hair still getting wet regardless.

             He can only watch this in disbelief as she kneels. Her touch , he instinctively flinched at it , before feeling its unusual warmth , her presence , maybe he wasn't alone this time , he leaned into her hand , his own go up now , his gloved fingertips slowly touch the skin of her cheeks , he analyzes her face , her hair , her eyes. A sigh leaves those bloody lips as his fix into hers ,  His body feels exhausted of all those fights , a non stop cycle that has broke him , maybe too much. 
            
                " is it really you — ? " he whispers again , his voice sounds so tired , his eyes have changed , they still the same shape and color , but the light in them has turned off and they look almost empty , his hands go up to cradle her face  and they are covered in a unimaginable ammount of blood. He is not the same as when they were kids , something was wrong a it has been for a long time. Through his mind run a million things and he can't believe a single one , if she isn't dead , what happened all this time ?

            *  that was unexpected && caitlyn usually wished to be the first to say it ,  but however predictable the other was she always managed to surprise her .  caitltn pulled the other into a sweet kiss ,  smiling into it .  *
            
            i love you too ,  violet .

@piltcversprcmise.           *          ⠀[    the two simple words were enough to help her calm down,  save her from any further tears,  but the few that were still in her eyes continued their decent.  her chest heaved with the few deep breaths taken,  regaining her composure,  her head lifting from where it was rested to look up at caitlyn.    ]    i love you,  cupcake.

            *  the last time caitlyn promised something to vi ,  it ended in a disastrous manner .  caitlyn had given a half-answer in efforts to placate her own guilty conscious from what was to come ,  what her mother would think of her actions .  now ,  there was a chance to right it with violet .  *
            
            i / promise / .  

@greatshct.           *          ⠀[   vi snickered,  a hand moving up to brush over flushed cheek.  it was a rare,  nonetheless pleasing sight to see caitlyn so flustered every once and awhile.    ]    who cares if you shower with me,  cupcake?  i'm only pulling your leg.

@bloodfists 
            
               * realizing her choice of words , caitlyn blushed as she attempted to correct herself *  I - mean - as in us . . we could both use a nice shower - one after the other , of course .  I can ... warm the water for you , if you like

@greatshct.           *          ⠀/ us? /    [    quiet hum sounded out,  blue grey hues flickering towards the female,  then down to interlaced hands.  an amused scoff would complement a shake of her head,  and she raised their hands to press a kiss against the females' knuckles.    ]    who said anything about you joining me?

PROMISED them ?      [  of course he had.  viktor’s brow furrows, clearly displeased.  he and jayce had not discussed lending out their projects, much less *giving* them, to anyone.  surely that was a decision they should have made together.  ]      and what ,  exactly ,  do you require them for ?   they were not created as a fashion statement .

                 Ez holded her hand they stood up , he held her tight to make sure he could stand up , that she wasn't injured, and then let go.
              He just watched her put on the gloves , it was a hard to watch scene for sure , at least for him , it was weird to see her so defeated , so tired.  " You acted wrong ... very wrong — but that doesn't mean you can't make up for your mistakes ... fight for your people — OUR people "  she made a huge mistake , something that to his eyes he would  cataloge as unforgivable , if it was anyone else he would never let this pass , he would even kill on the spot. But this wasn't anyone else , it was HER.    Ez took off his brown leather gloves and with warm hands he cleaned the tears from her eyes once again. 
               
                 " I know Vi — she ... you did what you had to do —  even if that was / not / the choice you wanted ... everything is gonna be ok, sis — I promise "  he nodded his head , putting on his gloves again and standing next to the exit ladder , he waves his hand , giving her space to go first   " promise me you will never use that uniform again ... I need to hear you say it — that the badge is not part of who you are and never will "

@zaunbats.           *          ⠀vi stumbled onto her feet,  her body keeping the same slumped presentation it kept when she was on the floor.  she turned and walked to put on the gauntlets again,  but the defeat that overwhelmed her made it look like she could barely even manage to hold the things comfortably.  looking back at the other male,  the tears formed in her eyes again.  nothing to do with him,  she just couldn't control it.    "it's not an excuse to put your own people's lives on the line,  or put an innocent person's life on the line.."    she understood caitlyn's situation,  what was leading her actions,  but she couldn't find it in herself to excuse the way she was acting,  besides there was no excusing it.  all that mattered to her either way was that she missed her,  already,  and now she couldn't be by her side when caitlyn needed her most.    "she left me,  ez..  that's what i don't..  what i don't get,  okay—  i thought i was doing everything she needed..  what would  / help /  her."  her voice was soft now,  cracking as she spoke.  in response to his request,  she nodded her head,  starting towards the exit.  "sure—  i'll deal with it when we get back."

                 Ezra kept silent as he heard the story , keeping her wrapped around his arms , for comfort. He gently touched her hair as she spoke until the redhead kept silence , he didn't want to say anything , because he might say something that would hurt her , if he really smoke his thoughts about all the enforcer situation. His mind ran a million possibilities,  a million ideas, and a million things to say. But all comes to a sudden at the mention of this / girl /. Did Jinx have a KID he didn't know about? He can feel his blood boil again for a second , to his eyes all that enforcers have done is to take and destroy but again , Vi was part of the group , she had her reasons to be , it didn't make it hurt any less anyway. He sat back , letting her move out of the hug , waiting for the girl to finish talking before he had something to say      " she is not in her right mind , Vi — I'm not gonna justify her ... but a grieving heart can take you to do insane stuff ... "     he still tried to find something good in all this , he really did, but for every good reason he could think for Cait , the feeling of the grey on his throat burned harder.    
            
                " maybe she is not herself anymore , it's pretty hard to come back from what she did and — what the fuck do I know ? " it sounded like a defeat , ' what now ? ' He asks himself , moving a little to the side to sit next to her , his shoulder touching hers 
               " we will figure something out but please — take that badge off and / never / use it again " a beg , a tired and defeat one and the first time to anyone in years , and it was for this , for a piece of golden metal attached to a belt and a blue uniform.
