give me a ‘we’re mercenaries and we’ve hooked up once in a lifetime ago but you left before i woke up and actually handcuffed me to the bed and stole the files i was paid to get. now, we were hired by the same dude and we have to work together and there’s a lot of sexual tension and banter and me threatening to shoot you once an hour but you know you’re still pretty hot so maybe we should hook up?’ plot. i will cry for this.
