"Winston is a mood. Also, of course Bates likes to scare everyone. He chose the name Bates." Aika grinned, pulling to a stop to look at Ava.
The Villain and the Civilian (Closed!)

"Umm…A-Alright," Ava said, not sure how to respond to that.
"Y'know? Like the horror novel? Or the show?"
group
"I-I know wh-who Bates i-is." She said. "Th-That's why h-he chose th-that name."
"You've made some brilliant robots then." Aika said, snickering. "In another life, one where I didn't kidnap you, we coulda maybe been friends. Alas, villainy hath ruined that."
group
"I-I'm n-not so sure." Ava said.
"Not sure that we could've been friends? Oof, ouch. That's cold, Doc. Real cold."
group
"S-Sorry!" Ava said. God this is so uncomfortable!!!
"I'm messin' with ya, Doc. You're probably right anyway. There ain't any way for me t' not end up somewhere like this." She began the spinning again.
group
"W-Why are y-you even d-doing thi's i-in the first place?" Ava asked, hoping she wouldn't set her off.
"I already told you why I kidnapped you." Aika said, confused.
group
"N-Not what I-I meant. Wh-Why a-are y-you being l-like this? Wh-Why a-are you a supervillian?" Ava asked.
Aika stopped spinning, not quite facing Ava as she tilted her head. "Why do I do this? Well that's a loaded question if I ever heard one. Complete with a tragic backstory."
group
"S-Sorry! I-I shouldn't o-of asked." AVA sputtered.
"Nah, you were curious. I guess I don't mind sharing if you still are, but it's whatever." She waved a hand dismissively.
group
"A-Alright." She said.
(What should happen now?)
((Well they could actually talk, or someone could attempt to break in or smthn. I'm gonna be spotty with replies probably, because the place I'm going has shit wifi
group
(We could have the hero show up or they like try to contact Siren.)
((Oh, that could be fun! Like they hack into her laptop(she's got no protection at all, says it's fun living on the edge) to contact her?
group
(That sounds good! You want to run da laptop or me?)
((I don't know much about Shockwave, so are you alright with doing it?
group
(That's fine! I'll have to do it on my laptop so give me a minute.)

Sirens computer began to glitch and make noises. A picture started to appear and sound began coming out of the speakers. Shockwave was on the screen. She was wearing an all black suit with a black and yellow mask that covered the top half of her face. "Siren!" She yelled through the speakers.
Ava's head shot up when she heard Shockwaves voice. Oh no.
"Hey! I was wondering how long it would take ya t' figure out that my laptop has no security!" Aika grinned, spinning away from Ava to face her computer. "How are you? Anythin' fun happen lately?"
group
"Cut the crap, Siren! I know you have her! What did you do to her?" Shockwave yelled at her.
"I kidnapped her, obviously." Aika rolled her eyes, slouching in the chair. "And lower your voice, you don't have to yell. I'm right here, you know."
group
"Where is she? What do you want with her?" Shockwave yelled, ignoring Sirens comment.
"What do you think I want with her, dumbass. Any leverage I can get, that's what." Her demeanor shifted, back straightening as the air around her seemed to chill.
group
Shockwave growled. "You better not of hurt her."
"I'm a bad person, not a monster, love." Aika said shortly.
