1. "Look, either I'm wrong, and we die, or I'm right, we survive, and I'll let you try to kill me."
2. "Oh, yeah, wow. I bet he's terrified. How long until he comes back here to try and kill us?"
3. "It's fucking hard to think with you dancing around in here."
4. "Whatever you did with those pills, they're not 'fun' drugs."
5. Wildcard! Surprise me.

[kristinortega]

"I'm going to hold you to that." It's punch dagger-sharp, acidic. About absolutely getting a shot at killing him. The only way Kristin when she's angry, or scared and refusing to be. Which might as well be both all the time while she's on the job and something like half the time when she's off the job.

Even if she's come to trust Kovacs somehow in all of this, it's who she is.
It's who she's been far too long, and it's not going anywhere anytime soon.

"What? You mean the family business?" Jason said as he sat near the rooftop edge and facing Gotham's skyline. He then finished bandaging his wrist.

"At this point, nah. Not really. Why do you ask?"

"What are you talking about? I'm always in a good mood."

Which is typically true, ironically. Despite the horrible carnage spread out over the freeway for six miles in either direction, thanks to an oil tanker rig jackknifing and then flipping over on its side, almost immediately igniting the cars that piled up behind it and setting of a magnificent chain reaction that showed no signs of burning out any time soon.

The grisly scene had, of course, attracted Death, and she and the demon currently sat atop one of the higher bridges, passing a bottle of whiskey back and forth.

"This your work? It's impressive."

Death (Dana Palosi) | Mythology

3. "You were meant to be watching him!"
4. "I don't want to have a baby. You remember what happened last time."
5. "I'm telling you - the guy was a complete stranger, just walked up and gave me the watch."

2 (putting this here in case we want a throwback sometime <_<)

[withoutrhetoric]

Their response is wide-eyed innocence, a fluttered blink as they position themself in front of the bag. Very casually. Extremely casually.

"Why would there be anything in the bag, Senan?"

Clearly it is only a simple bag! Just minding its own business!

5. Wildcard me.

[gloriously_purposed]

It shouldn't be much of a shock, all things considered. If anything, they were not going at each other's throat at the moment. Not literally, at the very least. But this apathy of sorts that Thor was suddenly demonstrating was for some reason far more hurtful than Loki dared to admit, even to himself.

"That's--" Nodding, he furrowed his brows, searching for the right words to conceal how he felt about this. "Reassuring, really. No surprises for you lot."

[kaiba glances up from the faint glow of his computer screen and grunts back at anderson:]

Look who's talking, tough guy. I'm surprised you're still alive after that last scuffle with what's-his-face.

[vampires were real. monsters were real. and so was the stack of paperwork on his desk, endless as ever.

the alliance with iscariot had been tenuous at best. kaiba wasn't fond of religion but he also knows better than to challenge supernatural foes alone. and since he refused to deal with the ice queen of hellsing, that left the vatican and its crusaders, who held significant sway over europe. the choice was clear, even if he wasn't fond of his babysitter.

kaiba scribbles his signature on a few more documents and sighs, rubbing at his temple.]

Apparently it's next to impossible, but you could at least try not to piss him off. Alucard is a collective pain in all our asses.

[and apparently he could remember his name, at least when he wanted to.]
