Who: Lois and Varric (and maybe some of his companions)
What: Rescue times (again)
Warnings: Nargh

Zod had kidnapped Lois in London, but he'd knocked her unconscious, and she had no idea how far he could have taken her. She knew it was some kind of abandoned warehouse. The weird graffiti she'd been investigating was burned into the walls. She knew she'd seen it before back in Metropolis. Apparently it had something to do with this Zod guy.

The guy thought he was some sort big shot, and kept trying to get Lois kneel before him. She probably should have just done it, but Lois was loud and bull-headed and didn't always know what was best for her. Kneeling for some psycho didn't fit into her five-year plan.

Lois was currently lying limp in her bonds, sleeping or maybe unconscious. Zod had left; he had better things to do than watch a girl sleep. She must have been frustrating to work with. She didn't know anything about where Clark was, she refused to kneel, and she mocked him even when he tried to break her.

	"Hey," he smiled back. "I have no idea what you mean, but I was mostly just making sure you were still alive. I was worried." He stroked her cheek as they cuddled, closing his eyes. "I haven't been that worried in a long time." He wasn't usually open with his feelings, and that was as close as he'd gotten in a long time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She felt shaky, and was glad she hadn't tried sitting up. She didn't want to tell Varric not to open up to her, but seeing him worried was hard. It scared her a little. She could just pretend she was fine, but not with him acting like that. She bit down on her lower lip.

"I'm just glad to have a hero that isn't afraid to show his face," she said quietly. She was done with the Blur, she decided.

	He kissed her gently before moving back to twine their fingers. "Do you remember anything about what happened? Lawman wants to see if he can track down the guy." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Varric, I.." She froze up a bit; she really didn't want to do this. Normally, she'd be ready to write the story, but not this time. "This isn't a normal guy you can just send the police after. He can shoot fire from his eyes. And he's really strong." She wasn't sure how you stopped someone like this, but she knew more people would get hurt if she just handed over a name.

	He blinked, eyes wide. "I'll be sure to let Lawman know this is kind of out of his normal scope." He pulled her closer, petting her hair. "Shh. Nobody's going after anyone right now. Right now you're just going to focus on sitting here and getting healed up, okay?" He kissed her lightly, not wanting her to be upset. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

His surprise was just a little amusing to her, in that morbid sort of way. "If he'd been just a normal guy, you know I would've handed his ass to him."

She cringed a little at being coddled, but didn't say anything right now. She really wasn't sure what she wanted. "Shoulder seems better. Kind of afraid to look at my knee, but nothing's throbbing." Seemed like Varric's friend did a pretty good job.

	"I know, but still." He ran his fingers down her thigh, squeezing her hand and kissing her gently. He didn't want to baby her, just distract her; he figured she wouldn't be the babying type. "Esmerelda said that you're not allowed to leave bed today. I'll keep you entertained." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She was about to say something about Esmerelda bringing her pancakes, but then Varric ran his hand down her thigh. She didn't cringe away from that, which was a very good sign. She kissed him back, relaxing. She wasn't okay, and they both knew it. But she wasn't opposed to him getting her mind off things. (Reply to this) (Parent)
