He inhaled, studying Tohru. This isn't a kink anymore, if it ever was. He narrowed those amber eyes, clenching his jaw. "And where are you going to take me?" he asked, lifting his chin.

"The Rebellion wanted you," Tohru replied simply, "This is all a shame, if you ask me. But I've gotta do what I've gotta do, love."
He kept the blaster to Davin's throat, though his finger was nowhere near the trigger. He had been told to take him in alive and didn't want to kill him on accident. That would probably be worse than letting him escape.

@ElderGod-Icefire

(actually…he was supposed to be working for the Rebellion? did i forget to mention that?)

He clenched his jaw. Golden skies flashed through his mind, blue fading to a buttery yellow to a gold. Sounds turning to silence. The Empire's soldiers, in their protective suits, finding him in the stasis pod. He glared at Tohru, twisting away from the blaster. "No."

(Yeah, it was unclear which one. Just pretend I said Rebellion instead lol)
"No, what? I didn't ask you a question. That was an order."
Tohru repositioned himself and backed up a bit so that he could reaim the blaster.
"Of course we're forcibly taking you, since you refuse to come of your own accord."

@ElderGod-Icefire

(haha alright lol. Sorry for not being clear 😬)

Davin shook his head. "I said no." He said again, ducking back. His tail flicked anxiously as his eyes searched for anything he could use to defend himself.

Tohru started to reach down for another tool to help him. His mind was racing. He'd expected Davin to be difficult, but not this much so.

@ElderGod-Icefire

Davin's eyes flashed with panic as he edged away from Tohru, eyes roving the room, never settling in place for long.

Tohru fumbled for more restraints and started to lunge at Davin.
“There’s no getting away. I’m sorry.”

@ElderGod-Icefire

Davin darted back, tail lashing furiously, whipping out. He tossed his head, horns shining, desperate to get away.

Tohru lunged forwards, grabbing for Davin and trying to tackle him. He tripped and caught him by the handcuffs, dragging him down to the floor with him.

@ElderGod-Icefire

Davin kicked at Tohru, eyes narrowed. His tail lashed out again, like a whip, slapping at Tohru. "Get off!"

@Becfromthedead group

Tohru shouted in pain as the tail lashed across his legs. He rolled out of the way and grabbed onto something else in his jacket.

@ElderGod-Icefire

Davin scrambled up, lashing at Tohru again with the tail, backing away. His eyes were wide, afraid.

Tohru was out of ideas. He grabbed for his blaster again, aimed at Davin’s arm, and pulled the trigger, his eyes squeezing shut.
I didn’t want to have to do this…

@ElderGod-Icefire

Davin shouted with pain as the blaster bolt hit his arm, and he fell against the wall, eyes wide with pain. His tail lashed harder.

@Becfromthedead group

Just gotta stop that damn tail from moving…
Tohru took advantage of Davin's pain and shock, and he went for his tail, trying to pin it to the ground.

@ElderGod-Icefire

Davin flinched at the touch to the tail. Only person supposed to be grabbing it is family or lover. He thought hazily, and twitched away.

"Stop… struggling…" Tohru grumbled, "You're a lot of trouble, even half-incapacitated. Jeez…"
He still fought for power over the other, but he was secretly afraid that he was going to lose.

@ElderGod-Icefire

"If our positions were reversed, you'd be struggling too." Davin forced out, voice strained from pain. His tail flashed again, whipping away from Tohru.

"What will it take to bring you with me?" Tohru pleaded, "I don't want to hurt you. I-I didn't want to."
He backed off a bit to avoid another lashing with his tail.

@ElderGod-Icefire

"Then you shouldn't have godsdamn shot me!" Davin snapped, standing straight again, though he was obviously in pain.

@Becfromthedead group

"I-I panicked, okay!" Tohru defended, "Sor- I'm sorry!"
He backed up again, hands shaking.
"Well… is there? Is there any offer I can make to get you to come with me?"

@ElderGod-Icefire

Davin let loose a volley of Kaythani words in answer. He was trembling with pain, his arm hurting so very badly.

“Here, I’ll help you with your arm. I-I swear I didn’t mean… oh god I fucked up…” Tohru muttered, rambling on.
“Do you have any medical supplies here? I’ll get them for you.”

@ElderGod-Icefire

Davin glared at Tohru. His hands were still cuffed together, and his black and white hair was falling into his face. "You're a terrible bounty hunter." he realized.

Tohru was shaking. His lip quivered a bit, and the sensation seemed to go down his whole body, but it was most noticeable in his hands.
“I-I’m better at logistics and the like… You were easy to find,” Tohru explained.
He rubbed the back of his head. He wasn’t going to be able to find the right words anymore.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He muttered a curse. "Easy?" he shook his head a little bit. "Godsdamnit." he went to move his hands, and a soft grunt of pain left his mouth.

“Here, let me see…” Tohru whispered, cautiously approaching.
He felt a tug in his chest- a very sharp pang of sympathy.

@ElderGod-Icefire

Davin lashed his tail again. "Don't." He snarled, backing away. Sure, he was in pain and cuffed, but he wasn't just going to let this guy approach him.

“Alright, then. What’re you gonna do? You’re cuffed and have been shot in the arm,” Tohru replied, an edge to his voice.
