Doll, in ~~her~~ his infinite wisdom, swiped a few more of those mints for a rainy day. Not that it rains Downside. Not that it's even raining outside the bar just now.

Still, it's the principle of the thing, and he's got a table and a cold beer while he watches the patrons go by.

	You get to know the Downsiders of the bar after a while. They share a certain look. Something in the way they move, like a flavour of the soul. This one is... new. Jazz watches him with flat, icy curiosity. The tattoos are very prominent, scrawled across her skin in a bold progression of vicious recorded pain. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Doll learned back when he was live to heed the feeling of being watched. Time Downside has only hone that instinct. So Doll watches back. The tattoos are...interesting, to say the least. (After Chainsaw mentioned her, she asked Donny about Jasmine. He told her. He left out what she looked like though. Didn't think it would be relevant.) (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	No recognition. That could make things mildly amusing. She walks closer. "If I were to hazard a guess," she says softly, with a faint hiss in her voice, "I would say you are a torturer." (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	(Just wait until the first torch.) "You would hazard correctly." His voice is just as soft, curious (and faintly cautious). (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	"I know all the torturers who started before I did." Simple fact. "You must be-- new." (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes, ma'am." He doesn't know where the formality comes from. (survival instinct) He doesn't want to know. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	"What rank?" She doesn't think he's titled. He can't be from that far in the future, can he? And he doesn't move like someone with that kind of power. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	"The threes, ma'am." Downside long enough to climb a few rungs of the ladder, get a bit of an ego, but still terribly young. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	green_and_white 2008-11-22 06:44 am UTC (link)
	Soft, derisive snort. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	no_kendoll 2008-11-22 06:45 am UTC (link)
	"Very new, ma'am." Eyes on the floor. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	green_and_white 2008-11-22 06:48 am UTC (link)
	"So I see." Did Donny mention Jasmine's colours? Her title is very important to her. She always dresses to match. Even her shoes are green and white. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	no_kendoll 2008-11-22 06:52 am UTC (link)
	As it happens, he did. Staring at her shoes, it clicks. With Doll still staring at the floor, the recognition is visible only in the sudden line of tension along his shoulders. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	green_and_white 2008-11-22 06:54 am UTC (link)
	Soft: "And my reputation precedes me. At last." (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	no_kendoll 2008-11-22 06:56 am UTC (link)
	"I'm sorry, ma'am, I didn't--" He can't very well tell her that Chainsaw keeps her locked up until she goddamn reincarnates. "I'm sorry." (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	green_and_white 2008-11-22 06:58 am UTC (link)
	"Not yet." Her amusement is infinitely chilling. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	no_kendoll 2008-11-22 06:59 am UTC (link)
	Oh, God dammit. "No, ma'am." (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	green_and_white 2008-11-22 07:02 am UTC (link)
	A small smile. Very small. "If you resist, I will break you," she says indifferently, and establishes control. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	no_kendoll 2008-11-22 07:03 am UTC (link)
	"Yes, ma'am." He doesn't resist. (This will be bad enough as it is.) (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	green_and_white 2008-11-22 07:05 am UTC (link)
	Still smiling, she leads him away toward the door. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	no_kendoll 2008-11-22 07:10 am UTC (link)
	He follows, not even bothering to look around. There's nobody here who could help him; he doesn't think he would call out if there were. He will survive this. That will have to be enough. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	green_and_white 2008-11-22 07:14 am UTC (link)
	Funny habit Downsiders have of surviving things, really. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	no_kendoll 2008-11-22 07:18 am UTC (link)
	Stress is bad for Doll's grammar. then once he kissed her lily white hand, and twice he kissed her cheek She said she wouldn't break him. three times he kissed her cold corpsy lips then he fell into her arms asleep He tries not to think about her definition of breaking, and all the things she might do before then.
