꧁𝐋'𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐢 𝐃𝐞𝐥𝐥'𝐎𝐫𝐨꧂ (PoisonousIvee/Mr.Aznable)

[PoisonousIvee]

"Thanks for everything, Lore." He said gently before slowly pulling away, climbing out of bed and getting redressed.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She made a soft noise. “A-Any time, hun..~” she said weakly

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He finished and moved to get his armor on, "I'll be back once I deal with that three bit. I'll try to come around more often."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She laid in the bed and smiled a bit. “I look forward to it..~”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He put on the last of his suit and placed his hat on his head, "Behave yourself."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She smiled a little sadly. “Until you get back..”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"I'll be back before you know it." He said before he moved to the door, "Love you, Loraine.."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“I love you too, Aethro..” she said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

A couple weeks had passed since Aethro left for his bounty, and life continued as it always did. Lore was tending to a rather rowdy band of bounty killers, the bigger of the group getting a little handsy with her whenever she came near.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She made a noise, putting on a smile but making sure to reject him every time.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"C'mon, Loraine. What do I have to do to get you to run away with me?" He asked.
"That freak hardly comes around anyway, ain't no point waiting for him."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“I’m just fine waiting, thank you.” She said, smiling as she walked away.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He reached and smacked her ass hard, him and his friends cackling loudly.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She gasped and walked quicker, shaking her head. Thank god Aethro wasn’t here, or she’d have one hell of a mess to clean up.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

The door swung open gently and familiar footfalls hammered on the wood floor. Aethro moved in slowly, his exosuit still a rather imposing sight, and he nodded to Lore and the barkeep silently.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She was more than happy to see him, moving over quickly and trying to pretend like nothing had happened.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He looked down at her, and though she couldn't see his expression, she could feel he was wary.
"What's the matter?" He asked, voice mechanical.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“Nothing..! Nothing, just uh.. big guy thought it’d be funny to get handsy..” she said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"That so?" He asked, lifting his head to look over. Coincidentally, the big one was making his way over to them.
"You ain't welcome round here, freak."
"Really? Couldda sworn s'long as the money was good, anyone was allowed in." Aethro said.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“Oh, god both of you knock it off, I’ll cut you off.” She said to the leader, “and you and I will have a discussion about who cleans up.” She said to Aethro.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"Did I do anything...?" Aethro asked, turning to look down at her.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“Not yet but I know you..” she said with a small smile.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He hummed and moved to walk past the guy, only to get slugged across his suit's faceplate. The guy gasped, holding his crippled hand, and Aethro reached for his gun. Immediately, people cowared out of the way, not wanting to get grazed or eat any rads.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She jumped in front of him. “No guns, not in here!”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"He hit me." Aethro pointed out calmly, like she didn't see it just occur.
