@ManMadeMutant stands and is almost too big for the cell.
βDid you sense everything?β He practically lost it after the new bot self destructed and sent melted metal into his face.
βSorry about that.β Not his proudest moment and heβs not sure what she exactly felt.
@ManMadeMutant Brax looks up from inside the cell revealing a partially healed face. There were still white spots where skin hadnβt regained color yet.
βThink theyβve lost enough today and figured it would be a lot more if we fight.
Which is good, not really in the mood to fight.β
He β
@ManMadeMutant βDogs in the kennel, go fetch em. Rather not spend the rest of my night standing here.β
The guards are visibly nervous about the exchange they will obviously donβt feel the same.
Brax is assuming everything is going well because he hasnβt heard any explosions or screaming.
@ManMadeMutant The guard shrugs dismissively almost looking everywhere but her.
βBetween you and me I wouldnβt let either you walk free. Iβd prefer the researchers having at you both but Iβve been told that the damage caused by attempting that would set us back quite a bit.β
He points. β
@ManMadeMutant βDown the hall and in his cellβ¦
Passcode is 797340.
Leave with him the way you came.β
Spat at the ground and stood aside staring death at the woman.
@ManMadeMutant There are dozens around and waiting at the elevator but none of them will attempt stopping her. Apparently Gilroy called ahead and gave a warning because most would avoid eye contact.
She would be approached by the head of security who doesnβt look pleased with the call. β
@ManMadeMutant Heβs below in the newly made cell counting the minutes and instantly senses her. Thereβs no alarms blaring so she hasnβt collapsed half of the building.
Brax sat silently and focused on her from a few floors below. Hopefully she can get through them without too much trouble.
@ManMadeMutant βI do think I was winning that thing if it went on a little longer.
But Iβm very lucky you did attempt it.β
There was zero effort in keeping a straight face when he said it.
@ManMadeMutant He wants to sit because after the labβs recent attempts to break him heβs exhausted but doesnβt want to be away from her. Brax just picks her up in his arms and scoffs.
βFeels rude if I dispute that now after you fixing my face but.β
Goes to the couch with her stretches out. +
@ManMadeMutant βRight.β
He could even think of a compelling argument so he relents. Didnβt take much for him to forget the subject after the kiss.
βThanks.
My healing has been put to the test lately and youβre helping out a lot. Donβt what shape Iβd be in without you.β
@ManMadeMutant That makes him smile despite wanting to worry.
βI know you would, just wish you didnβt have to. After everything I get nervous about you using your powers.
And I know you can handle yourself but still.β
He shrugged not having a compelling reason to worry.
βLooks better?β
@ManMadeMutant He yells when she returns his nose to its proper position. Sharp pain is soon followed by relief.
βApparently Iβve helped develop an extremely dangerous and deadly bot.
Attacked me got in this morning and disappeared before I could finish it. It may be hunting me.β
Long day.
@ManMadeMutant βI think heβs going to dangle the opportunity and that recording over my head until they create something that kills me.β
He rolls underneath her to get a look.
And they were getting closer than he wanted to admit to her.
βThatβs just how he operates.β
@ManMadeMutant βNo.β
Quickly shaking his head again.
βNot at all, best Iβve felt all week.
Now how are you? Howβs your head been this whole time?β
She always made sure he was okay despite everything sheβs going through.
