[ He huffs out a laugh.

(He doesn't realize it, but he tips his head toward Brennan slightly when he sits down beside him. Just the barest little shift closer. ]


Yeah. That was the real injustice of this fucking mess.

[ The seam of one of the shoulders of his jacket is torn apart; the tie is a wrinkled mess. He plucks absently at the crease of his trouser leg with a bandaged hand, where there's a rip at the knee. His shoes are scuffed, and the cuffs and collar of his white shirt are stained with dried blood.

A mournful little sigh, as he lets his hand drop back into his lap. ]


Guess I won't be trottin' this suit out again any time soon.

[ He leans a little as well, as he settles back in the chair. Though he does lean forward when Peter picks at his pantleg, etching out a quick rune in the air over the torn fabric.

The mark vanishes, and the tear knits itself back together as though it were never there in the first place. ]


I'm afraid that's all I've got in terms of fix-it spells.

[ That flash of purple again, and it— doesn't grate as much as it used to. Doesn't send that flare of disgust through him like it would have done a day ago.

He's just tired, he tells himself. It's been a long fucking night, and getting his insides tenderized certainly didn't help. The annoyance will be back once he's in better form, probably.

(He doesn't really care whether it does or not.)

The magic does make him tense – not quite nervousness or fear, but more a wariness of the unknown. He stares hard at the fabric as the two sides of the tear weave themselves back together, tries to spot evidence of the rip.

When he spots nothing, he huffs out a breath, something approaching derisive but not quite meeting the bar. ]


Show-off.
striketwice: (011)

[personal profile] striketwice 2016-11-03 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, basically.

[ He turns to regard Peter with a grin. ] I won't be fixing your entire suit, though. Sorry.
nostalgiabomb: (180)

[personal profile] nostalgiabomb 2016-11-03 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
It's fine, I guess.

[ He doesn't think on it as he reaches over, pats Alec on the arm as if in consolation. ]

We can't all be perfect, buddy.
striketwice: (036)

[personal profile] striketwice 2016-11-03 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
[ That slight contact is enough to make something pleasant and warm drift through him. Something in the back of his mind distantly tells him to get away, but he doesn't care to listen to it right now. He's too tired, too content.

Whatever this is, he finds he wants more. ]


I didn't know I'd have to brush up on my Mending to hang out with you.
nostalgiabomb: (089)

[personal profile] nostalgiabomb 2016-11-03 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
[ His head tips back against the bulkhead, eyes slipping shut. ]

If I knew what that meant, I'd have an answer for you.
striketwice: (018)

[personal profile] striketwice 2016-11-03 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
[ He makes a vague motion with his hand ]

The fix-it magic. That's Mending.

Wizards have a lot of bullshit names for types of magic.
nostalgiabomb: (066)

[personal profile] nostalgiabomb 2016-11-03 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
[ He huffs out a breath. ]

I mean, can't be that bullshitty. It does what it says on the tin, I guess? It mends. [ And he enunciates the word a bit more than necessary. ]

Unless you guys call, like that electricity thing you do something seriously stupid, like, the dance if Zeus.
striketwice: (012)

[personal profile] striketwice 2016-11-03 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
[ He laughs a little. He wouldn't put it past some wizards to get that pretentious. ]

I probably never would have picked it up if that's the case. It's called Elementalism. The chameleon thing is Illusion. The throw people into walls thing is Destruction. The shield thing is Defense. And on and on. There's like ten schools of magic.

Is it something anyone can learn? Or do you just gotta be lucky? [ asked mildly, but he's interested in the answer, all the same.

although no one should ever let peter quill have access to magic. that's just irresponsible. ]
striketwice: (034)

[personal profile] striketwice 2016-11-03 02:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I can teach you the marks, but the magic's genetic. Unless your old man was a wizard, you'll just be waving your hands in the air for no reason.
nostalgiabomb: (078)

[personal profile] nostalgiabomb 2016-11-03 04:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He puffs out a quiet sigh from between his lips. ]

Figures.

[ He tosses the ice pack onto the table, swapping it for the foul-smelling tea. He takes a deep breath, holding it in his lungs before forcing himself to take another mouthful. It helps to dull the taste a little, but not by much, and he goes right back to making that disgusted face.

Once he’s convinced he’s kept the drink down, he flicks a glance over to Alec. ]


… Look, about earlier. [ An awkward beat, then he clarifies, ] The whole, uh. Accusin’ you of going Benedict Arnold on me…

[ He trails off. Clearly he’s working up to an apology of sorts, here. Give it a second. ]
striketwice: (093)

[personal profile] striketwice 2016-11-03 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He watches Peter brave through another drink, and Jesus that does not look pleasant. For a second he feels like he might be sick on the guy’s behalf.

Once the apparent nastiness has passed and Peter turns to offer what he assumes is going to be an apology, he holds up a hand. ]


Don’t. I get it. It’s not like I gave you any reason to trust me, so it’s fine.
nostalgiabomb: (184)

[personal profile] nostalgiabomb 2016-11-03 06:30 pm (UTC)(link)
You sure as hell haven’t.

[ Despite the words, he says it mildly. He agrees, certainly, but not with the spite he might have utilized a handful of hours earlier. ]

Still. Should’ve known better.

[ He falls quiet after that, contemplating the contents of his mug. The gears in his head are still audibly turning, still juddering with false starts and resets, until he lets out a slow breath. ]

Thanks for. [ A beat. ] You know. [ A vague gesture made small by his injuries. ]

I mean, I know it was just, like. A practical thing. [ Because leaving Peter behind risked the whole operation. ] But still, I, uh. Appreciate it.
striketwice: (007)

[personal profile] striketwice 2016-11-03 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Don’t mention it.

[ It was a practical thing, he knows it was. Leaving Peter in enemy hands was just plain stupid, regardless of how they felt about one another. But in the moment? It felt like life or death, with the sharp teeth of dread digging into him at the mere thought that something might have happened to Peter.

It seems weird to think back on now. The terror, the urgency, seem distant and alien in the face of lazy contentment. He settles back in his chair a little more, listing slightly towards Peter without thinking much of it. ]


Like I said, your friends would kill me if I ditched you.
nostalgiabomb: (□ 005)

[personal profile] nostalgiabomb 2016-11-03 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He breathes out a laugh, a little dark and self-deprecating. ]

Yeah, yeah. The galaxy’s most insane guard dogs. I heard you the first time.

Still. Good timing. [ A pause, then he corrects, ] Kind of okay timing. Could’ve saved me a broken rib if you were just a few minutes earlier, but…

[ A shrug. ]

We can’t all be perfect, like I mentioned.
striketwice: (054)

[personal profile] striketwice 2016-11-03 07:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh-huh. I heard that the first time too.

I was kind of working at the time, then somebody- [ he gives Peter a gentle nudge with his elbow ] -didn't answer their comm.
nostalgiabomb: (106)

[personal profile] nostalgiabomb 2016-11-03 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He answers the prodding with a flat look. ]

Sorry. [ Equally flat, though there’s the barest hint of amusement in the corner of his eyes to take away the edge of it. ] Kind of had my hands full.

[ If he were honest, Peter would admit he— kind of doesn’t remember hearing Brennan call. But that could very well have been because he was in the process of getting his head caved in, and Alec’s voice couldn’t cut through the high-pitched whine in his ears.

He holds his breath again to take another sip from the concoction, taking a second to determine whether the taste of bile was from the tea or himself. (He decides, Probably both.) ]


I miss anything important when you called?
striketwice: (018)

[personal profile] striketwice 2016-11-03 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Yeah, the tea thing? Not any easier to watch.

He shrugs. ]
No, I just… sort of got the sense that something wasn’t right. I tried to call and you didn’t answer, so I went looking.
nostalgiabomb: (057)

[personal profile] nostalgiabomb 2016-11-03 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Something prickles beneath the surface of his skin at those words, a quiet itch at the back of his mind, and he glances over, eyebrows knitting together. Still, he treats it with a grain of salt, as he does most things. ]

What’s that, some kinda wizard thing? “Someone, somewhere, is getting the stuffing kicked outta them”?
striketwice: (024)

[personal profile] striketwice 2016-11-03 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I don’t ever remember having any kind of radar before.

[ He frowns at the ceiling for a bit before turning his gaze to Peter, searching his face like maybe the answer’s there. ] It just hit me all of a sudden.
nostalgiabomb: (040)

[personal profile] nostalgiabomb 2016-11-03 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He’s not entirely sure why Alec’s searching his face like that, and his eyes narrow on reflex. ]

I mean, I’m not complaining. It worked out right?

[ Part of him wants them to back away from this conversation, because it feels like teetering on a dangerous ledge. One falls move and they’ll fall. ]

Probably a fluke.
striketwice: (012)

[personal profile] striketwice 2016-11-03 09:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Alec’s gaze lingers on Peter for the barest of seconds longer, almost as if he wants to ask “what did you do?”, but Peter couldn’t have been any more responsible for whatever that was than Alec, and Alec sure didn’t do anything. Whatever happened back there had to have just been instinct. Or a fluke.

He returns his gaze to the ceiling with a small smirk. ]


Just try to stay out of trouble. I’m not always gonna be around to save your ass.
nostalgiabomb: (052)

[personal profile] nostalgiabomb 2016-11-03 09:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He’s relieved when Alec finally backs off, that little coil of tension at the base of his neck finally relaxing. Peter unconsciously lifts his hand, rubbing at the spot.

Still, Alec’s words have Peter rolling his eyes, and he huffs out a derisive snort. ]


Whatever, dude. We’ll just call ourselves even for after I so valiantly bailed your ass out of jail.
