because you're mine
Characters: Maia, Harley, Jinx, Phoenix and later Ironhide and (maybe?) Anna.
Location: Library.
Date: Backdated to the 16th. Right after the end of this thread.
Warnings: Maia. Lots of Dark Eco, pain, and general unpleasantness. This isn't going to be a superhappyfuntimes log (unless you're Maia).
( Won't you come sit with me? )

Phoenix, you're talking, but all Harley is hearing as she stares at you rather blankly is 'mew mew mew mew mew'. And then he slams his head forward and connects with Maia's. She is up off the table and moving, halfway toward them already when Maia regains her feet and laughs it all off.
She scowls, glowering at him all the way back to perching back on the table again. If he kept that up, she'd happily step in and knock him out again. She had no qualms about Maia repeatedly waking him up with jolts.]

"I play with fire all th' time."
Did Jinx get the joke, or is he just shooting back some thoughtless babble? Jinx looks to Harley without turning his head, his eyes practically cracking out of his skull.
"That's no way ta' treat a lady, Buddy."

Damn it, there has to be a way out of this. Concentrating on just one hand, he pulls and twists, testing the strength of the rope and trying to see if he can get any sort of grip on the knots. Failing that, if he could just get his hand to his hip...
Does he even have his communicator still? He can't remember if he dropped it.
Or if someone took it from him.

She sighs and gets up off of Phoenix, taking her time with dragging her fingertips along his chest as she moves behind him. "Of course, regardless of sex, you make for a perfectly good specimen." Maia glances up at both Harley and Jinx, "Wouldn't you agree?"
However, Maia's attention quickly turns back to Phoenix. She takes little time moving her fingertips upward until they're resting against his temples. "You know, Phoenix, regardless of whether or not you'll admit to it? You and I actually have quite a bit in common. Still, we do have our differences, as much as it pains me to say. One difference, however, is that while I've experienced what I've put people through, you only go by what you've observed. Of course, if I'm wrong, please correct me! Although, I doubt it'll make much difference."
Maia simply shrugs and smiles down at the man tied beneath her, "I think a treatment could be beneficial either way."

Not that it would do him any good in this particular moment anyway, but unfortunately she had thought to take his communicator from him.. and his gun. It wasn't often that Harley did such a good job with an assignment, but she had taken this one to heart. Lucky Phoenix. her blue gaze shifts and Harley watches their captive struggle and shift his attention to his hip. She smiles widely and pulls out his communicator, waving it the air for his attention.
"He might be a looker, Maia, but he ain't too bright! HAH!!" Irony at it's finest, ladies and gentlemen.

As you can see, Jinx is in his own world at the moment. Though, he does nod at Maia's question if only to acknowledge her.
Jinx only shrugs at Harley's comment, then flinches at the kiss. What the fuck is he doing here? Oh, yeah. He's here to laugh at Harley's awesome jokes because that one really was a knee slapper.
"Really?"

Never mind that the blood has already drained from his face.
"To what end? You have nothing to gain from such an experiment." Somehow, he manages to keep his voice steady, at least until he angrily bites off that last word. He lets his tone turn somewhat more menacing. "And perhaps a good deal to lose. Or have you forgotten about what you lost?"

The screams sink into the library walls, deadened by the library books.

He chews his cigar nervously, only remembering the times when he was on 'the dark side' himself. Everything was for his own gain and his own pleasure. If robbing a family of their food was necessary for him to not starve to death that same night, there's no chance that he'd even take the time to think it over. Selfish, yes. But if not for that, like hell if he'd be alive right now.
His mind finds its way back to the real world of the Elegante. This isn't him accidentally'ing someone, this is him deliberately not helping Phoenix.
Maybe hate really can be murder.
Jinx presses his ears to his head. Fuck this shit, man.

She rests her elbows on her knees, chin resting in her upturned hands. If this is what Maia wants to do, then this is what they're gonna do; no matter that it could be completely the wrong thing. That kind of stuff doesn't bother Harley and never really has. She slept with her professor for a better grade in college, after all ( ... )

The feeling of the Dark Eco crackling in and around her body is a painful one, but it's also a feeling that Maia has grown to appreciate. However, Phoenix isn't as lucky as she is. For him it's nothing but horrible, excruciating pain - and she has no intention of letting it end any time soon. Maia closes her eyes and sighs contentedly as she continues to send pulses of Dark Eco through his body.
This moment is perfect. It's everything she hoped it to be, and there is nothing she would do to change it.
"You know, Phoenix...I've been wanting to do this since I first met you." Her voice is quiet. Far too quiet to be heard over the sounds of Phoenix's screaming, but if the room had been silent, then one would be able to hear how genuinely happy Maia sounds.
"I'm so glad that I finally have the chance."

"No, not really."
His voice is almost silent, barely audible over that screeching from Phoenix.

"Well .. then it's best that ya don't involve yerself, bubs," she says plainly with a little shrug. She's not one to get butt hurt of such, actually preferring that he not get in the way if his conscience is getting to him.
"So, I'll do ya a little favor. For ya own good, ya know? Ain't no point in ya gettin' in any more trouble than ya already have, yeah?"
She's smiling at him, and he's really not going to get anymore warning than that before she pistol whips him solidly across the back of the head.
"Nighty night, Jinxy!"
