your heart is hollow， but your bones are made of steel． you are the perfect weapon…

blinks rapidly at the scene unfolding in nowhere's city center .

there is some sort of . . . contest ?

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

why's everybody looking at me like that ?

i haven't had to harvest a gift off of a living being in two years .

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

@IR0NHEARTED she lets loose . it's an impressive ball of energy that collides with that area in a flash .

“ i feel stronger . is it a placebo? did you get a reading on it ? ”

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

𝑮��𝑼𝑵𝑻 .

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

@IR0NHEARTED the whirring steadily becomes louder until a sizable ball of energy erupts from the end of her arm .

directly at her favorite corner full of tools .

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

@IR0NHEARTED “ what if the blast emitters were never getting enough power to begin with ? ”

the arm whirs and an orange incandescent glow begins from within .

“ watch out . ”

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

@IR0NHEARTED brow quirk .

“ but if it draws less power from other systems , theoretically . . . it could put more power toward the cannon . ”

metallic arm shifts from hands and fingers to a tubular cannon .

“ i have always looked ' badass ' . ”

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

@IR0NHEARTED “ archaic . ” she repeats . metallic digits flex and stretch .

“ terran and technology don't typically go hand in hand , stark . ” it's a compliment . “ how does it affect the cannon ? ”

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

rubs at her eyes .

single little wave anyway .

[♯ᅟᅟ &͟ ᅟ𝗨𝗣𝗧𝗢𝗪𝗡 𝓖𝗜𝗥𝗟 𑁤 ֶָ֢ᐟ @Boltsnbulletss]

Someone's not in a good mood today . . .

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

@AnIgnitedSoul laughs .

“you're so distracted . ”

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

completely lifts @AnIgnitedSoul to look for the remote to the little television .

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

why would anybody want to do that ?

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

@AnIgnitedSoul “ you can . i'm very much okay just like this . ”

nose to nose with him , a hand rests upon his cheek . sapphire lips twitch , partly in amusement and partly in a 𝒔𝒎𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒏 way . “ don't you want to see who wins ? ”

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

@AnIgnitedSoul she'll curl up like a cat , comfortable , her hand lightly squeezing his leg . “ much . ” she offers a nuzzle against his jaw , his scent flooding her senses . “ don't let me interrupt football . ”

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

stubborn as always .

“ it's still a work in progress . ” she gestures toward the small living area . “ sit . ”

[𝓰̴ 𝕒𝕞𝕠𝕣𝕒 @ZEHOBEREIDEATH]

she doesn't reply.

' it's quite nice here. '

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

@AnIgnitedSoul all at once , her shields come crashing down . if there's anything that quill has taught her , it's that she doesn't have to guard herself so viciously around him .

she leans against him , her frame fitting into the side of his like pieces of a puzzle .

“ hn ... ”

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

https://t.co/o4sRxYwUzM i missed this muse

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

@AnIgnitedSoul “ then why is it called hot 𝒅𝒐𝒈 ? ”

a subtle shake of the head . heat's radiating from his hand , traveling up her spine . she doesn't want to move .

“ no need to go through all the trouble . ”

dark eyes meet his briefly .

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

@AnIgnitedSoul “ popcorn is okay , but what about the little dogs ? so weird that terrans eat dog but it's kind of delic- delicious . ”

the stutter syncs with the brush of his fingers across her back . she tries to continue as if nothing had happened . “ 𝒉𝒐𝒕 𝒅𝒐𝒈𝒔 . ”

she's distracted .

[✧･ﾟ𝙣𝗲͟𝗯͟𝘂͟𝗹͟𝗮͟ ͟ @cyberneticblue]

@AnIgnitedSoul “ football is so convoluted . ” fingers wiggle as she tries to stretch just a bit more but ultimately , she gives up . arm drops away , hand lands on his thigh . “ you don't even have the appropriate sporting event snack spread . ”
