Re: In Person: Selina/Dickie/Stephie
[Stephanie rocked back on her heels, then forward to the tips of her toes as he crouched down in front of her. She could recognize the look in his eyes. That look in his crystal blues that always spelled out bad news, and when she caught his gaze with her own bloodshot blue one, it lingered there for a long string of moments. She didn't jerk her hands out of his, even if his touch just made her uncomfortable. His words? Uncomfortable didn't even touch how those made her feel. She didn't speak for a moment, as if she didn't get what he was saying. In a second it clicked, and she wrenched her hands from Dick's grip.]
No. No, no, no, you're lying. [A shake of her head and a burst of tears, and she wobbled to her feet.] I have to go, I have to go see him. He said he was going to get out. He promised me he was safe. [Ramblings from a jumble of conversations over the last few days since he'd been taken. She tried to move away from Dick.] I have to go, I have to go see my husband. He's fine. [A couple of gasps, and she feinted to the left before moving around to his right to walk away and towards wherever.]
