Once before, she'd gotten a rock stuck within the cords and had almost gotten herself killed as the bow disabled. Never again would a mistake like that be made on her part. Jiwon's dark voice had her preparing for the outside world as he confirmed he was ready to go, though not the nicest of ways. A simple "C'mon" would have sufficed quiet nicely. Her mind began turning as Axel's words replayed in her ears, the warning she'd never dare forget. As if that were even possible. The fear laced within her boyfriend's eyes was enough to scare her into a traumatic episode. She hadn't experienced him so, distant before. Of course there had been the occasion time, before she was aware of the DID, when things seemed off with the Korean. But it wasn't anything like the conversation carrying probably the most useful information she would ever take in. With her thoughts already in a jumble, she murmured a "mhmm." and paired it with an eye roll. This tough guy act, even if it actually wasn't, was all too familiar. It was almost, entertaining. Except when robots haunted every corner. Then it got pretty damn useful. <br/>
<br/>
In a quick motion, Blaze had been pinned against a wall. <i>Jesus, does this guy know how to give a wake up call or what?</i> If he'd been a robot, her distracted ass would be dead right about now. Even if her mind was off in La La Land, his grasp wasn't all that necessary. The aura of the man didn't change, but his game sure did. The ginger felt her strength slipping away as a new spark of temptation lit within her core. He was being a dick and both of them knew it. Her mind ached one word. <i>Axel.</i> Ha, if only. As if the close proximity wasn't enough, Jiwon slipped his hand downward from her collar. <i>I hate you so much.</i> But honestly, she didn't. Not a bit. Okay, well maybe there was a tiny sliver of anger if she really dug deep enough, but the darkness that consumed this alter was surprisingly arousing. She'd never thought herself to be into the doom and gloom of a man who literally hated humanity and everything about it, however here she was letting one use her to his will. Her lips tempted to curse Axel's name, but thank the higher powers her mind still worked at this point because she didn't want to get some spiteful lecture about the difference between the two people. Dealing with this son of a gun alter was enough of a pain, in more than one way. She attempted to match his grin, though she wasn't as sadistic as this guy. Nonetheless, it was challenging. "<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#daa520">What can I say? I have a weakness for a hot body</span>."<i> 'Axel understands.' Don't you dare speak his name to Jiwon. You know you don't want to deal with the possibilities. </i><br/>
<br/>
With sexual frustration as her bolded emotion, she finally let out a breath as Jiwon stepped outside. "<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#daa520">God, shit, damn, freaking...</span> " Curses flew from her lips in the next exhale, silent so he wouldn't feel the pleasure if hearing what he'd done to her. The lust in her eyes flaunted that factor enough for her liking. She gripped her bow tightly and turned her body around the door frame, following a few paces behind the Korean. The sun instantly bore into her skin and Blaze groaned. "<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#daa520">I'll need more water soon</span>." Whether or not he cared, she might as well let him know they'd have to make a scavenge soon. In previous, she might have felt more comfortable going off by herself to just go look. But... she couldn't bring herself to leave Jiwon. Last time that happened, he was gone for days and whenever Axel returned everything was different. So, she remained. Her steps traced those of the men she both hated and loved, in a world where nothing was certain anymore.<br/>
