          ❛ what – y’got a crush on the guy ‘r somethin’? ❜

it’s obviously a joke, all in good fun, but it comes out a little harsher
than she means it to.  she’s nervous.  always gets a little antsy when
the daredevil is involved.  he just… seems like the type that’d make life
very difficult.  or just straight up end it for her.  from what she’s heard
from friends and co-workers, he doesn’t seem terribly concerned with
her type’s survival.  he’s the reason she’s started carrying her gun again.

          ❛ well i certainly hope you’d keep my name
             out of it. that’s kind of a given.  if y’don’t,
             i’d probably die. and we don’t want that. ❜

there’s a flash of an amused smile as she turns to look at the pi now
sitting beside her.  she likes jessica’s company, which is pretty rare
for ella – she’s better known for putting up with people rather than
enjoying them.

          ❛ c’mon, y’know i don’t like guessing games.

               “ no. i need his help. “

          people tend to get the wrong idea about vigilantes. call it a hobby, but she’s been keeping up with his movements wherever she can. enough to know that the guy isn’t some kind of professional assassin, or even a killer, really. just an extremely talented man with a strong sense of justice & a tendency towards brutality. a bit like her in some regards, specifically in the realm of being rough around the edges. 

               “ there’s someone out there – worse than anyone you can imagine – that won’t … stop. he’s relentless. “

          thoughts are like blades, slicing her nerves into gory ribbons & strewing them out for all to see. like a wall of solid ice, she normally stands, but as paranoia seeps in, the chinks in her armor become readily perceivable. gaze holds firm on the bottle across the room, but she manages to reject it’s seductive call. all of that renders her proposition almost emotionless, absent embarrassment or even any sultry edge. jessica just says what she wants, letting it be taken however it shall be.

               “ i wanna fuck you. “
