[ The expression in her eyes is obvious. She doesn't like this idea. Not in the slightest. Using Alan as bait is at the same level as locking him in a cell. It can't do anyone of them any good. She even knows the tone of his voice--narrating, writing, conceptualizing. It's the same tone that came to her on the Hotline.

Her gaze drops to the side with a frown. Just enough go let him know she doesn't like it. What else can they do? Haven't they tried everything else already? Or at least, Alan has tried everything.

« He has to, doesn't he? Scratch wants to become him. He wants to take his place in everything. Alan has to be the one to take him down. » ]


I'd say use us, but, I'm not sure he'd fall for me. [ « Given Scratch seems to hate you. Which means he hates me. »

He leans against her and she adjusts to help prop him up. Knees press it on his sides to steady him even with his reactions to her fingers brushing through his hair. She doesn't mind propping him up. He's written her here for similar things anyways.

She breaks the kiss once more only to take a shaking inhale. Lips ghost over his. Fingers at his belt move along the inner shirt he wears, and thankfully most of it isn't covered in blood or mud. Green eyes raise to find his at the silent questions: How far do you want to go? How far should we?

He might be the better one to ask to be objective at the moment. She wants to press against him, move against him, lose herself for a little while in that gravitational pull. It could help ground him and help him from washing out. Stir up memories and emotions of the few times they have been able to be them.

« We might be a dangerous pair. Not as a duo in battle, but, how easily we can put everything aside. People are waiting on the Director... and all I'm waiting on is to see if he'd say yes. » ]
