[Okay, white ceiling.
You're on the floor for no inexplicable reason again.

...God dammit this is getting old. She arches her back up with her good arm and takes a fine gander at her surroundings.

...God dammit that is hilarious.]

A little tied up, aren't you?
I didn't know omnipotence was conditional upon the unrestraint of one's limbs.
Interesting.

Yes, you could say that.
And quite obviously omnipotence is conditional upon how much our captors wish to entertain themselves.

[Oh this wasn't going to be easy.]

Well, Rose, it seems like you're the only one who can save me. Care to be my hero, Seer of Light? We really haven't got all day.

[Part of her is sort of ready to begrudgingly relinquish the bonds on his limbs, but the other...

The other is recalling a recent conversation with Vriska.]

I could, such an act is clearly in my power at the moment. [She motions to the fact that she's free of any bonds. Spending a moment sizing up the flames, and then Scratch himself, she weighs her options. What if she left him? What if she let him burn? He's certainly not a virtuous person, and definitely not someone with her best interest in mind.

After all, he's the one who incited the descent into grimdarkness, the one who incited the act that sent their entire plan astray.

What would the result be?
There's this sickeningly gleeful feeling of power in watching him helpless. So much so that it almost bugs her a little.]

How about, before I make a decision regarding whether or not you'll be floating among the air molecules within a few minutes, you answer a few questions for me?

You know we really don't have that much time, a few minutes may cost me one or two limbs.

[He turns his cue ball head towards the flames, then back to her.]

Besides, you know that I am always willing to answer your questions, Ms. Lalonde. And I always answer truthfully. If you're looking for answers, perhaps it can wait until after I am no longer in peril, maybe over a nice cup of tea?
