Re: quicklog: archie/cat break ins
You mean women aren't falling at your feet? [The purr was still there, but the corner of her mouth raised in something like a smirk. Lush, but a smirk all the same, and she looked at the green goop on his labcoat. She quirked a brow, a question, and she chuckled as he cracked his neck.] Charming. [But mostly? She was paying attention to the statue and the energy around it. She lamented Eddie's absence, because he would have an idea of what she was looking at. She only had Black's word that it would be dangerous to take it, and she didn't particularly trust a man descended from the man that created the serum that had ruined her life, Matt's life- possibly Steve's? She didn't know the genesis of the serum, but it seemed likely that all the wrong versions had come from trying to recreate the right one.]
It's hideous. [She said of the gargoyle, and she didn't comment about his name. She didn't say she wasn't a friend of Nero's. Nero, that name was in the family tree, wasn't it? She'd need to look it up, and Cat was terrible at research. But she kept her mouth shut about it, and she dragged a claw lightly against the protective glass.] It consumes. What happens when it does? [And she returned to that tiny bit about his name.] And here I thought infamous people liked to pass on their infamous names. You followed in those infamous footsteps. I guess that's something.
