Axel! What the hell do you think you're doing?!

There's NO goddamn excuse for this, NONE! I'm beating your ass six ways to Sunday next time I see you, you can count on THAT.

And Master? If you put him up to it, you're next on the list.

I would've put them out before they got too big if I could have. The city decided to make that impossible.

[Looks ready to break his neck with her bare hands]

That doesn't change the fact that you started them in the first place!

[firebranded]

Guess not.

[Is he being indifferent? She thinks so, and it sends her right through the stratosphere] Wha- Why- You-!!!

[Furious now, and lacking patience for words, hands ball into fists and she takes a swing at him, a hard right hook aimed for the face]

Just try me, Rosette, but leave Axel alone. He's been punished already.

You really did put him up to this, didn't you.

Oh really. How's that?

[masteronhigh]

Would it make you happy if I said I did?

Divine punishment and poetic justice. Just try putting a hand to his forehead and see what temperature it is.

Don't give me that. Since when have you cared about anything I felt? [She's not still angry about the whole "forcing the issue and breaking her mind" bit, of course not]

I don't think I can get that close to him without strangling him.
