Author: Regret
Rating: G
Story: Radial: Unravel
Challenge: Flavour of the Day - Cat's-Paw: a person used to serve the purposes of another; tool.
Extra: Pocky
Word Count: 100
Summary: A short exchange in the elevator does nothing for Milos and Marrok's relationship.
Notes: I'm out of the habit of writing, which sucks considering I'm supposed to be working on something, so I'm going to try to pocky/FOTD for a week to give myself a kick.
Lifts were awful enough, Milos decided, when they held just him. To be crammed into one with Marrok was plain torture, and his former boss clearly agreed. He sidled closer to Milos wearing an unpleasant smirk. “You’re just a toy, you know. A tool.”
“I know.” He thought he’d be upset?
“Jaska’ll tire of you soon enough.”
This was supposed to be news? “I know.”
“Research still have your paperwork.”
Milos swallowed. “So you’re their tool to get me, just like I am Alex’s, aren’t you?”
Marrok’s ensuing scowling silence felt less like the victory he’d wanted.
