Re: quicklog ; steph/eddie -- tethys lockdown.
[The familiar scent of his cologne was intoxicating, a straight to her head high, and she shook her head to jiggle out the dizziness. Steph looked at him for a moment before the started moving and thought yeah, this is it. This is how she would spend her last couple of hours, and she was okay with that. If they didn't get out of here? So be it. They were both going to go down kicking and screaming and together. And that was what was most important to her. (And somewhere, she could just sense Cat smirking and raising her eyebrows abou this. And somewhere, she could imagine others being hurt just by these thoughts, by these glanced touches, by these lingering looks.) Later on, she'd worry her lip bloody. Later on, she'd wonder if it were just a fluke. Later on, if there was a later on, she wouldn't regret this.]
I'm the MacGyver of vigilantes. [Her fingers squeezed his, and she followed out. One hand clutched his and the other held the thick make-shift weapon. Her wrist throbbed, and she knew that she needed to start working out again. Goddamn did she need to get back into some things. Especially if they survived this. Especially if things like this were happening all the time. The drips, the growls, the sounds all sent shivers down her spine.] I feel like I'm playing one of those scary video games you loved to torture me with. [One of her fingers escaped from the grasp and poked his side. But all joking melted away with that monster came near them. She bit down her lip to muffle a gasp, and ran along with him until she came skidding to a stop in front of the bodies splayed on the floor. She groaned quietly, and then picked up the rod and held it as a bat.] Oh no no, no fucked up Avatar wannabes today, thank you very much.
[She swung fast and hard, sending one of them skidding back. The other began to reach for them, and she whacked it (him?) right on the head, then stabbed him with the jagged end in the ribs. The black poured out of the wound.] Hey, Eddie, maybe go run ahead to get some stuff while I pummel these guys with this blunt force object? [And then she swung at that second one again.]
