a beat of silence; watching him dig his own grave deeper and deeper. she knows the truth. he knows she knows the truth. they’ve played this game before and it never ends well for james.
Sharp inhale as she leans back into her seat “ are you going to tell me the truth or am I going to have to make you ?? ” an eyebrow quirks, decidedly amused look. even then, there is something sharp in the way she smiles.

the silence stretches on, elastic, grains of sand slipping one by one through the hourglass opening, until a sigh shatters it. “ remind me again why i put up with you ?? ”
Yelizaveta 100% collects those god-awful ugly ceramic cat figurines.

THE AIR IS THICK FROM THE HEAT AND FUEL; Eliza moved through the crowded market with purpose, boots barely making a sound on the dust covered street. Her target was close — she could feel the shift in the air.
Then came the unmistakable sound of a familiar voice, loud and irritating, cutting through the noise of the market. Eliza turned, her eyes narrowing as she spotted Quill. Perhaps losing a haggle with a vendor or bothering some poor soul with his star. lord stories the thought caused her to lose sight of her target. Lips pressed into a thin line as she pocketed her weapon once more. Features harden. Exhaling sharply, annoyance creeping into her tone. ❛ Quill. What the hell are you doing here ?? ❜

NOSE SCRUNCHES WHEN THE OTHER COMES IN; Eliza couldn't help but get the feeling that Laura was looking for her. Perhaps the events that unfolded some 45 minutes ago and the two unconscious men on the roof of the bar might have something to do with it. Still, Eliza was determined to finish her beer first.
She grips the neck of the bottle she was nursing, peeling it from the sticky surface below ❛ whats with the long face ?? ❜ smile falters some as she turns in her seat to face the other
LEANING BACK AGAINST THE KITCHEN COUNTER; elbows resting behind her. Posture relaxes but only a little. There was a time Eliza would joke about how they were cut from the same cloth - soviet made, coarse and unyeilding. Stitched into two different patterns. Eliza used to laugh at that. Now it just echoed.
Her voice, when it came, wasn’t defensive. It was deliberate. ❛ I was somewhere I wasn’t supposed to be, doing something no one asked me to do. ❜ A beat . ❛ Sound familiar ?? ❜ Brow raised in her direction
The bottle caught a glint of light on the counter, untouched. She didn’t offer to pour. Didn’t ask why Natalia was really there — because they both knew that game was past its prime. She exhaled, slow. Deliberate. ❛ Last week … I was making sure someone’s kid didn’t end up in a grave meant for their father. ❜ Her eyes flicked up, sharp and unblinking. There was no performance in her tone, no effort to soften the truth.
❛ I’m not gonna insult you with a lie. You came for answers, so I won’t dance around it. I'll tell you what you want to hear but first, I want you to answer something for me. ❜ she pushes herself up from the counter and circles around to grab the bottle of wine, eyes glance to the label then back to the redhead ❛ I want the truth, and besides, you know I can hear your heart beating and if you lie ... i'll know ❜ A faint curl of bitterness tugging at her mouth. ❛ Do you really think I wanted to play boogie monster again ?? ❜
❛ and here i thought you LOVED my visits. i even brought a bottle with me this time around. ❜ rehearsed smile is met by rehearsed smile. this dance being all to familiar to natalia ; the smoke show. the faux smiles and forced courtesies. it was always more refreshing when the point was forced to the forefront over the litany of games that needed to be played.
❛ SEE. i know you're retired. but some people aren't too convinced still. like fury ... april. where were you last week ? and before you give me the scripted and rehearsed answer , i'm trying to help you. no one knows i came to you FIRST. ❜

CAININES SHARP ENOUGH TO TEAR THROUGH FLESH; now sheathed beneath pink stained lips of a rehearsed smile. ❛ have y'know ... ever considered not bothering me ?? ❜ her tone is curt yet her smile doesn’t falter. Her gaze swerves to take in her surroundings , before settling back onto natasha ❛ i'm retired, so the answer to whatever the reason you came here for the answer is no ❜

A MINUTE QUIRK OF A BROW ; though a smile does break, uneven as her gaze watches Yelena ❛ you want something ?? Just ask for it ❜ Eliza repeated, leaning against the kitchen counter, head cocking to side ❛ you could've just knocked instead of breaking and entering into my place like this ❜
