“Heh... I'm- I'm glad- you deserve a name... you deserve some importance...”
She wasn't as strong as a hybrid... but she'd do her absolute best to protect that smile...
“Listen to me.
And- and I'll give you my blood every week.”
She was glad that Power was listening, but just for a little insurance she'd make a false contract...
// oomf did one of these,
so I'm doing it too, I guess.
Kobeni is twenty, and she is Pansexual + Sapphic. (stronger attraction to women & feminine people, but not limited to.)
“I figured as much...
...but trying is a step in the right direction...”
She just hopes this doesn't somehow get her killed... It's not like she can keep Power on a leash or something...
“...okay... well how ab-about we make a deal then..?”
“...well... "Whip" can be translated to "Muchi"... but that isn't much a name.. is- is it... so how about "Muchiko"..?”
She was hoping that Whip would like it... she did put a bit of thought into it..
@PowerDontShower AH- P-P-P POWER..????
( immediately covering herself with the shower curtain. )
HOW DID YOU GET IN HERE??? AN- AND WHAT COULD BE SO IMPORTANT THAT YOU NEE- NEEDED TO BREAK IN???
“I'm speaking about what Makima's orders we-were... it specifically said to keep you in che- check...”
Sighing again...
“And it's that behavior exactly that prov- proves that you abso- absolutely do need to be kept in check.”
Lightly tapping Power on the forehead.
@decayandage She stared at the mirror for a moment, not understanding what kind of move that was...
Until she saw a shadow on the ground and instantly knew she has to get the hell out of there. Her arm begins to burn up more as she quickly bolted out impact area.
“...what in the hell?!”
Aiming a knife at 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫.
“You have been marked as a threat by Public Safety. Make this easy for me and just stand... stand down...”
The normally timid girl... felt like an overwhelming presence in this moment..?
. . .
“...yeah... I guess I should listen then... I'm sorry... I guess I'm just foolish, for thinking I could have an upper hand against her...”
looking away in shame...
@HammerheadAhead ...I don't know if I should be flattered or... scared by this... maybe... try blinking... an- and I'd be more flattered...
( she was a tad nervous... )
( She felt like she was losing grip of her own willpower... what in the hell was this feeling... It only worsened once Makima's hand was over hers... )
Miss... Miss Makima...
( Eventually the blade fell from her hand, and hit the ground with a clank... )
( She didn't flinch. She simply smiled, soft and warm, as the blade trembled against her throat. Gently, she placed her hand over Kobeni's, steadying it. )
That's it. Let it out. You're doing so well for me, Kobeni. Now... let go.
@WhippedNumen Kobeni shivered a bit as her hair was stroked... her heart was beating so fast... there's no doubt that she was happy...
She loved Whip... even if she hasn't really said it yet... But this... this was just... too good...
She pressed her lips against Whip a bit harder...
( Suddenly grabbing Makima harder and pressing the blade against her neck... but for some reason her grip was faltering..? )
I- I can't... I can't be so blindly subservient... not if I don't make enough to support him... I hav- have to...
( Her resistance was weakening... )
Hm, hm, hm.
Oh, Kobeni... You misunderstand. I'm not asking. Your brother's college, his future, his safety — all of it rests in my hands. You're so much cuter when you obey without question. And you will. Won't you?
@WhippedNumen Oh- her face turned bright red when she was caught... “i- i- um... i- ...”
Her eyes do wander... taking in every detail they can see... “you're so pretty...”
Fiddling with her own fingers in embarrassment as she just stares at Whip...
Reaching out and gently placing a hand on Whip's cheek... resting her head against Whip's as she does as well...
“...you said you're old right...? Do you have a name..? If not... would you like me to give you one..?”
...she's been thinking about Whip in her free time... a lot.
" Always an optimist... "
The hybrid sighed and gave her a small smile llacingher head against hers.
" Not like I'd get infected anyways luv' I'm still new to being a numen... "
