"Well, let's go fuck him up, then."

Clover flicked away her cigarette, stomping on it. "Agree for once."

"Did it tell you where he is?"

He quickly fell behind the two, hiking the sleeves of his hoodie up past his elbows. The dragon on his arm twisted and turned with joy, knowing a battle was soon to come.

He winced at the sound, stopping and putting a hand on the side of his head. "I don't like that."

Hero stops, unsure what was going on. Clover waved him on, telling him to scout ahead in Russian. He does so. She turned to Runner when he was gone. "Talking?"

"Tell them to stop," he said, closing his eyes tightly. "It hurts."
group
She shook her head. "I can't. Only you." She scruntched up her face, not liking what she's about to do. "Say: I ar goua. I mar goua."

He groaned, letting head hang. "Fuck, fuck, fuck, shit. Fuck."

group
She sniffed, pretending to be disgusted with him. "Will not effect you in life. No need to be upset." She turned on her heel, a tad more distant and curt than before.

He felt like stomping on the ground in frustration, but decided against it. "Why me? Like, what about me makes every-fucking-thing in the universe want to capture and fucking use me?"
group
Her shoulders tensed as she walked. "Not use. Runes not use. Other cannot speak for."

He sighed. "Whatever. Let's just kill this fucking guy so I can bounce."

"Fine with me." She led him downstairs, grabbing a torch while she took the stairs two at a time. The firelight gleamed against her metal arm, flickering and sputtering in protest at her quick pace.
