@vincitia said ! “ you know i always have your back . ” to castor from sly xx
THERE IS A SMALL SMILE despite the blood in your mouth, crooked as your sense of humor ( and on some days your morals ). You’ve never really had friends. This is new to you. You think you like it.
THROWING AN ARM AROUND HIS SHOULDERS you hang lazily off of Sly, affection easy and comfortable around someone the same as you. It’s what binds you together, the fundamental similarities, the power in your veins and the way the world hates you for it. It’s what makes you pick fights with anyone who doesn’t watch their tongue and drags him into your petty fights. There is no need for physical violence when you can end a life with little more than a pointed glance, but there is something satisfying about the crunch of bone and the swell of blood, even if your body is not built for it. You will bruise harshly tomorrow, your joints protesting for days, but you do not think to regret it.
“ YEAH, WELL, that’s ‘cause you’re and idiot, ” You tease. “ I can handle myself. If there’s any real trouble it ain’t me you have ta’ worry about. But, y’know. I APPRECIATE IT, anyway. I got yours too. ”
