"What do you think she thinksyousmell like?" Nikolai asks Raven, curved smile on his face, voice mocking. "Like a box of kittens?"
"My scent is objectively delightful," Raven says, chin high, pride in voice, preening all the time. "Everyone says so."
Nikolai snorts. "Everyone you fuck for money, you mean."
Geo stands.
fast.
growls.
"Watch your fucking mouth, Vlakov."
tension fills room.
like air before storm.

should I watch?
should I kill one?

Moon would be very angry.

Raven laughs.
