The previous night swims vividly in her thoughts behind closed lids. She breathes in and out, focused, concentrated, only for the water to shift around her as he approaches. When she opens her eyes, he is looming over her, waiting.

She exhales, expression strangely calm. He is close enough to touch, close enough to taste. His lips move but in the end, the only thing she hears is the beat of her heart.

"Stop talking."

Emma rises to meet him, silencing him with a kiss.

His attention to her is overwhelming, intoxicating, and it takes all of her self-control to look away, to maintain control over her thoughts, her actions, to the hunger thrumming beneath her skin.[break][break]

"It would have been boring."[break][break]

Emma's delivery is flat but coy, betraying her humor. He continues to pull her along with him, only for them to be stopped short by a young man and the mention of 'Twisted Teas'. Naturally, King's attention is drawn away by the mention of alcohol. It does surprise her that he shifts to hold her hand in some fashion and continue to guide her along. He holds fast, unwilling to let her slip away.[break][break]

The kiss he'd pressed to her cheek lingers even after his focus has moved on. His barking laugh and familiarity with the other man doesn't disappoint, it only leaves her mildly chuffed. For a man who spent his life running and keeping people at arm's length, he was awful friendly.

He calls for her, and her response is to freeze.

And then she sinks lower, sucking in a breath as the hot water rises above her chin, brushes her lips. It leaves her boiling, overstimulated, too damn hot.

But it was better than the surmounting emotions that she struggles to keep at bay. The pain is better than the lonliness and the desperation, the hunger to devour him.

She was going mad.

"I've got a whole day planned for ye."[break][break]

Naturally, she underestimates him.[break][break]

He looks ridiculous, but frankly, so does every swaying body in this place, herself included. King has organized almost all of her outfit as well as his own. She's merely along for the ride, riding the buzz of an evening spend soaking in water hot enough to melt her skin from her bones and warm sake strong enough to sweep her off her feet.[break][break]

By now, of course, the buzz has worn off enough that she's alert. Her eyes still trace the crowd lazily, however, picking out no one in particular that strikes her as immediately familiar. Not unsurprising given her lack of interest in socalizing.[break][break]

Her dress hung loose and provocative, catching the flashing lights, the glowsticks, the entire shebang. She is her very-own disco ball of reflected colour, hand-picked by none other than the King on her arm. He's taken special care to ensure nearly every inch of her purple-dyed skin was exposed. [break][break]

The makeup she's painstakingly applied to King's face compliments the work she's put into her own. She is a wash of blues and purples, heavily applied glitter and too much attention to detail. She really did look the part of 'alien' or 'supergalactic'. She was a nebula, and the glittery beading of her dress were the thousands of stars.[break][break]

Emma's attention passes over King as he waves a greeting to the two party hosts. She mirrors him, offering the pair her own subtle greeting, before the two of them officially enter the party.[break][break]

"This is... something, Wayland."

Emma glances at him, the movement sharp and aggressive, depicting all of the disgruntled irritation that she has at her disposal. She doesn't breathe a word, however, and instead leans back in her seat and pulls had hand away from the table.

Just as she glances away from him and his shameless feast, King broaches a new subject which brings her right back to him. Perhaps that's what he wanted.

"I have."

Warm, rough hands had once swept her off her feet, wrapped her up in his arms. But not anymore.

She acts as a buffer, a blanket to disguise him amongst the rest. Realistically, there is a pretty good chance no one is really paying much attention. Most of the people in the bar this late at night are too drunk or too high to care. But those whose eyes do linger stray away, not keen on catching the ire of one of Rocket's beasts.

Emma observes him indirectly, more focused on the beer in front of her than the fake smile he presses to his lips. He makes it look easy, makes it look real, but she knows better. He'd almost certainly learned that trick from Rocket.

Unlike him, however, she doesn't smile. Her face is neutral, unreadable, purposely cold.

"You'd have to be the best to do that - and unfortunately, you're looking at her."

He tilts his drink toward her and she reciprocates, clinking the lip of her own against his glass. She follows his lead, taking a sip, and sets it back down against the countertop.

"Conquering cities through fear and manipulation. Just a day in the life, you know."

There is a thinly veiled note of bitterness in her tone.

Emma doesn't even open an eye. In fact, she settles into relaxation just a little bit harder. She doesn't admit it, but her lack of response, negative or positive, is a sign of her growth. In some ways she appreciates his attempts at conversation, at his interest in her, at his general presence.

More and more lately she's come to appreciate what little company came her way.

Eventually, however, the woman responds with a soft sigh imitating defeat.

"Whatever you'd like to call her, I suppose."

"You tell me."

Alcohol and poor judgement clouds her feelings, clouds her thoughts, leaves her numb. She craves physical touch, craves intimacy, craves company. It leaves her hollow, desperate to fill in the cracks with something temporary in the hopes that something, anything, was better than feeling nothing.

It is a selfish, terrible plea - but it is one that she finds herself indulging in anyway.

But she does not approach him. The temptation to make him chase her is too strong.

"Mm.."

She shifts only slightly, rolling her shoulders and curling her toes.

"That's what someone who's following me might say."

But there is a note of amusement in her tone, encouraged by the relaxation seeping into her tense muscles. She sighs, the exhale coming directly from her toes. The woman's eyes remain closed, her lips drawn in a perfect line, but she does not appear the slightest bit annoyed having him in her presence.

In fact, it felt natural.

"You should try relaxing, Bo. That is what this is for, is it not?"

She can hear his labored breathing, feel the static between his shoulderblades that only a man who bears a heavy weight could possibly carry. She knows that static all too well.

She did, and that was precisely the problem.

Inevitably, however, she does. Day drinking does not look good on her, and the effect of the hot springs and sauna only magnify her intoxicating. She watches him openly this time after he speaks, and it unnerves her how immediate her intrigue is at the use of her nickname.

"Is that what you want?"

It was coincidence, she reasoned, that King was here at the same time she was. And it was possessiveness that convinced her to round him up before someone else did. Only one of which she would admit to.

But now she sits across from him in a private hot spring, pushing a floating cup of sake across the bubbling water. Her attention lingers only for a moment at a time, hidden behind steam and raised cups of drink.

The warm water, the steam, the scalding rocks pressed against her back with complimentary massages- she finds she just keeps coming back.

Not even the thought of being paired up with strangers deters her anymore. The relaxation and the calm, the mindless thought, the static, all of it is worth the trouble of spending time with another human being.

And so she doesn't look up even a little bit as footsteps near. Her face is buried in a soft cushion and hot stones bury comfortably into her back. She is totally relaxed and indifferent to the goings-on around her. Her lack of clothing does not seem to concern her either.

Where his eyes linger, Emma's avoid if only because she does not care.

She didn't come here to socialize - and she had, in fact, requested a solo experience. But it was frowned upon, apparently, as this was meant to be a couples or group retreat. The fact she came alone had then insisting they pair her up with another single.

One could imply what they may.

And so here she is, being coaxed into speech by a young man she met recently in battle. She leans against the warm stone, pressing her shoulders against it and closing her eyes.

"Good for you."
