YarnKittymon: : ::a guard comes and raps on the
bars of Donald and his cell-mate's cell:: Exercise time!
Quantum Catz: JK: ::groans from his position
on his bed:: I was just gettin comfy too
Quantum Catz: ((his name's jack, by the way,
in case u'd like to know ^^; ))
YarnKittymon: DL: ::gets up from his bed listlessly::
Hope it's not snowing today.
YarnKittymon: : ::the guard opens the cell door
carefully::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::is tall and rather muscular,
the muscles flexing as he sits up and then climbs to his feet,
running a hand through the dark bristles of his hair::
YarnKittymon: DL: Well, anything to see the sun.
::walks out of the cell::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::shrugs:: I ain't that bothered
about the sun...give me a decent woman any day and i'll give up
the sun for life
YarnKittymon: DL: ::clenches his fists; quietly::
I'd do the same.
Quantum Catz: JK: ::smirks and then laughs::
That's my boy
YarnKittymon: DL: ::smiling weakly:: I don't
think I mean it quite as you do, Jack.
YarnKittymon: : ::the guard escorts them to the
well-guarded exercise yard; it's in the middle of the prison,
and there's not really much to do there, but they can go out in
the cold and run around or talk with some of the other inmates::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::as they walk:: Ah well...it's
all the same in the end...you got a girl back home then?
YarnKittymon: DL: ::smiles weakly:: I like to
think I do, but that's probably just a dream.
Maeve Owens: SE: :::Seth is sitting on one of
the benches, a magazine opened in front of him.Two other guys,
and one of the guards, are standing around him and they are all
gawking at the pictures in it:::: Oh yeah, this ones got a nice
chassis.
Quantum Catz: JK: ::shrugs:: Dreams can be a
good thing in here, right enough
YarnKittymon: DL: ::glances towards the men,
then looks away, frowning::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::smirks at the group::
YarnKittymon: DL: ::smiles at Jack:: Go on and
look; I won't mind.
Quantum Catz: JK: Nah, who needs pictures? I
can imagine the real deal right here in my head...and that's a
lot more likely than the fantasies they eye up
YarnKittymon: DL: ::smiling:: More likely than
what I'm imagining too.
Maeve Owens: SE: :::overhears Jack's statement
and he snorts. He turns around to look at them.:::: This little
*number* right here would change your mind my friend. :::he says,
pointing down at the magazine in front of them:::
YarnKittymon: DL: ::looks down, his eyes widen,
and he grabs the magazine and looks closer::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::looks at Donald:: What's
up with you?
Maeve Owens: ::::it's a picture of a woman in
a small two piece negligee. Her long spiraled hair fell over the
front of her in a seductive pose. Her legs were crossed and she
was sitting sideways, a pair of heals on her small feet::::
YarnKittymon: DL: Where did you get that? Give
me that!
Quantum Catz: JK: Hey, Don, it's just a mag,
mate
Maeve Owens: SE: :::narrows his eyes at Donald
and stands up, reaching for the magazine::: You had best hand
that back unless you want to walk away with a broken bone.
YarnKittymon: DL: You give me that page or *you're*
the one who'll have a broken bone or two.
Maeve Owens: SE: :::smirks, his dark eyes growing
even darker::: I don't think so mate. I found her first. Get your
own. ::::pushes at Donald's chest:::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::moves to stand between them::
Hey, give it a break
YarnKittymon: DL: ::tries to get past Jack::
I've known her since before I was stuck here!
Maeve Owens: SE: :::lets out a bark::: This
girl? I doubt that buddy. Guys like us only wish we knew girls
like that.
YarnKittymon: DL: Girls like her don't deserve
to be pasted on the walls of fellas like you!
Quantum Catz: JK: ::looks at donald almost like
he's gone insane, then mutters:: I don't think this's really the
place to be gettin all gentleman-like over a girl in a mag
Maeve Owens: SE: :::laughs again::: If she didn't
deserve it then she wouldn't have posed all pretty like for the
camera.
YarnKittymon: DL: ::his voice growing dangerous::
Give me the picture, or it's gonna get ugly.
Quantum Catz: JK: ::smirks and is almost tempted
to get out of the way just to see what happens::
Maeve Owens: SE: :::looks Donald up and down
and smirks::: Ugly for you maybe. :::the muscles in his arms tighten
and he flexes his fingers before curling them into a fist:::
YarnKittymon: DL: ::softly, looking like he's
ready to spring at the man:: Get back, Jack, or they'll think
you're involved too.
Maeve Owens: SE: :::smirks::: For someone who
doesn't care much for women in magazines you sure are getting
all riled up.
Quantum Catz: JK: Hey look, Don...as much as
i'd love to see him beat you to a pulp...i'd feel like a bad cell-mate
if i stood by and let it happen
YarnKittymon: DL: ::trying to control himself::
What date is that magazine? When was it printed?
Maeve Owens: SE: :::shrugs::: Who cares when
it was printed?
YarnKittymon: DL: ::shakes his head; looks back
at Jack:: It's my Maeve in there. I can't let her...keep her and
do whatever he wants with her...
Quantum Catz: JK: It's just a picture
Maeve Owens: SE: :::watches the two of them
in amusement::: Awe, guys, look, he thinks he's in love with a
quiff.
YarnKittymon: DL: ::is so outraged he's briefly
stunned; pushes his way past Jack and jumps at the man, aiming
a punch at his jaw::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::stands back, not joining
in::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::or trying to stop it::
Maeve Owens: SE: :::he was laughing and didn't
see Donald coming. The fist catches him in the jaw and his head
whips to the side. His eyes narrow and he comes back swinging
at Donald's head:::
YarnKittymon: DL: ::takes the hit hard, and falls
to the ground; has to get himself back up, and misses out on hitting
Seth again::
Maeve Owens: SE: :::goes to kick Donald in the
stomach:::
YarnKittymon: DL: ::takes the hit hard, coughing;
doubles over::
Maeve Owens: : :::one of the guards run over,
a night stick raised above his head::: Alright! Break it up! :::he
grabs Donald roughly by the shirt and hauls him to his feet:::
Starting trouble are we Quinn? :
Quantum Catz: JK: ::folds his arms, and shoots
a dark look at Seth::
Maeve Owens: SE: :::looks at Donald, a smirk
on his face::::
YarnKittymon: DL: ::in a rather subdued tone;
he's already felt what the guards can do with those nightsticks,
and doesn't dare fight:: I'm sorry, sir.
Maeve Owens: : You dont know sorry, Quinn. Lets
go. :::shoves Donald roughly towards the exit::: :
YarnKittymon: DL: ::suddenly struggles to look
back at Seth:: I'll give you anything you want for that picture!
Maeve Owens: SE: :::picks up the magazine and
flips it to the cover::: Not a chance Quinn, but if you want the
date I'll be happy to give it to ya. April 12, 1927. Mean anything
to ya? ::::grins:::
YarnKittymon: DL: ::looks rather dazed; softly::
Not a thing. ::stops struggling::
Maeve Owens: SE: :::looks a little disappointed:::
Whats the matter Quinn? Your dream girl not so appealing anymore?
YarnKittymon: DL: ::suddenly shouts back:: Anything
you want for that picture, I'll give it to you!
Quantum Catz: JK: ::softly:: Don...maybe it ain't
such a good idea to go making deals like that
Maeve Owens: SE: ::::with an evil grin on his
face::: I'll think about it and let ya know.
Maeve Owens: : :::the guard shoves Donald again::::
Thats enough Quinn. No girl in one of those magazines is worth
getting yourself killed over. :
YarnKittymon: DL: ::doesn't reply; lets the guard
push him to the exit::
Maeve Owens: : :::the guard takes Donald back
to his cell and throws him in::: :
Quantum Catz: JK: ::sighs and moves away from
Seth and his mates:: Well that was fun while it lasted
YarnKittymon: DL: ::sits on the floor, rubbing
the new bruise on his face, and thinking::
Maeve Owens: SE: :::smirks at Jack and turns
around to face his buddies. He rubs at his jaw, wondering what
Quinn would do for the picture or if it would be more fun to torment
him for the rest of his prison days.:::
YarnKittymon: : ::the guards give everyone a
couple hours outside, then escort them back to their cells so
the next shift can go out::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::goes to lie back down on
his bed, folding his arms on his chest:: You alright, mate?
YarnKittymon: DL: ::softly:: You probably think
I'm mad, but it was her.
Quantum Catz: JK: Your dream girl? She was good
looking, i'll give you that
YarnKittymon: DL: It was...before I met her...
Quantum Catz: JK: ::smirks:: You mean she wasn't
good looking when you knew her?
Maeve Owens: SE: :::once back in his cell, he
tears the picture of Maeve out of the magazine and sticks it right
in the middle of his collection. He grins and lays down on his
cot::: Hey Quinn! You're little quiff makes a nice little addition
to my
wall
YarnKittymon: DL: ::leans against the bars; shouts::
She's not! She must've been desperate, and if she would've known
you'd wind up with a picture of her, she probably would've drowned
herself in the Hudson instead!
Maeve Owens: SE: :::laughs:::
YarnKittymon: DL: ::softly:: That's the first
I've seen of her in two years...
Quantum Catz: JK: ::murmurs:: I think if she
cared as much bout you as you seem to about her...she'd a been
here to see you by now
YarnKittymon: DL: She was in prison, too...she
broke out. God knows where she is now.
Quantum Catz: JK: ::smirks:: Sounds like a girl
after my own heart...i've broken out a coupla times...never got
me too far though
YarnKittymon: DL: As soon as I get out, I'm going
to find her. I don't...I don't know if she could forgive me, but
I have to find out.
Maeve Owens: SE: :::shouts::: Not if I find
her first Quinn.
Quantum Catz: JK: What she gotta forgive you
for?
YarnKittymon: DL: ::very quietly:: I kidnapped
her and all of her friends, to use her in a crazy plot. But I
really loved her; I knew as soon as I did it that I'd made a mistake...
Quantum Catz: JK: ::laughs deeply:: Well good
luck with that one then, i wouldn't forgive you for that if i
were her
YarnKittymon: DL: ::sighs:: I know...there's
nothing I could do, to make it up to you?
Quantum Catz: ((make it up to jack? *confused*
or did u mean 'to her'?))
YarnKittymon: ((He got hit a little too hard
:D ))
YarnKittymon: ((Seriously, I make numerous mistakes
but I meant that one ^_^; ))
Quantum Catz: JK: You mean to her? I dunno...say
sorry? ::smirks:: What did you actually do to her and her friends?
YarnKittymon: DL: ::softly:: We were going to
use them in a huge science experiment to create immortality. ::stops,
looking rather alarmed; he hadn't meant to say so much::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::laughs again:: Immortality?
How hard did that nut hit you?
YarnKittymon: DL: ::rubs his head again:: Pretty
hard, but being locked up will drive you mad too, right?
Quantum Catz: JK: I guess if you ain't got any
hope of getting out
YarnKittymon: DL: ::looks up at Jack:: Do you?
Quantum Catz: JK: ::shrugs:: I've got another
7 years to go yet, mate...seems like an eternity sometimes...but
i know it ain't
YarnKittymon: DL: What're you in here for?
Quantum Catz: JK: Smuggling...and shooting a
coupla guys who got in my way...
YarnKittymon: DL: Bet the money was good, though.
Quantum Catz: JK: While it lasted...shame it
never did
YarnKittymon: DL: ::sighs; quietly:: I have a
headache. ::gets into bed without another word, closing his eyes::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::wryly:: Can't think why
YarnKittymon: DL: ::smiles weakly:: Some help
you were.
Quantum Catz: JK: ::shrugs:: I tried to warn
you it wasn't worth it...but i figure if a man's stupid enough
to get himself into these things, he's stupid enough to get himself
out
YarnKittymon: DL: Nah; I'm glad you didn't do
anything stupid.
Maeve Owens: :::from a few cells down, they
can hear Seth talking about Maeve and how he killed his last victim
and how she could be the next one on his list when he's out::::
YarnKittymon: DL: ::jumps out of bed, rattling
the cell bars; shouts:: I'll kill you first!
Quantum Catz: JK: ::sits up:: Calm down, Don,
he's all talk
Maeve Owens: SE: :::barks out another laugh:::
You could barely get in one punch pal. Besides, I could be out
of here in just three months.
YarnKittymon: DL: If you even think about her
again, I'll track you down, tie you up, get an ax and hack you
to hell an inch at a time!
Maeve Owens: SE: Oops, thought about her again.
:::wryly::: I'd like to see you try Quinn.
Quantum Catz: JK: Just sit down and stop givin
him fuel and he'll shut up eventually
YarnKittymon: DL: ::sits down on his bed, trembling;
curses softly::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::shakes his head:: She must
be some girl
YarnKittymon: DL: ::softly:: I love her, Jack,
and she used to love me. I'd do anything to have that back, just
for an hour.
Quantum Catz: JK: ::smirks:: Just for a hour,
eh? ::though he sobers up and adds:: I've found that messin love
up isn't really the best way to keep it around
YarnKittymon: DL: ::softly:: It doesn't matter
anyway. It's her, or no one.
Quantum Catz: JK: People get over love eventually...it
fades and people move on...even if it don't ever feel the same
again
YarnKittymon: DL: ::smiles weakly:: I told you;
I'm mad.
Quantum Catz: JK: ::shrugs:: You'll get over
it...even if it's just cos you start missin the *pettin* ::he
puts enough emphasis on the word for donald to know exactly what
he means by it
YarnKittymon: DL: ::smirks:: I'm lonely here
but you don't see me going after *you.*
Quantum Catz: JK: You'd better flamin not. And
besides, what i *meant* was once you're outside again...if a nice
enough girl comes along...you'll cave, i'll bet you
YarnKittymon: DL: I know what you meant, and
I'm saying every other girl out there might as well look like
you, for all I care, because I only want one of 'em.
Quantum Catz: JK: I'm startin to believe you
are mad, even well in love husbands sometimes can't resist the
urge to eye up the competition
YarnKittymon: DL: And most husbands would be
at least a little angry to find their wife had posed for such
a photograph. It's worse than liquor, Jack.
Quantum Catz: JK: Thought this was before you
met her though, Don, and she ain't your property if she ain't
married to you. She'd probably tell you twern't none of your business...if
she even talked to you at all
YarnKittymon: DL: ::lays back down; softly::
She'd do worse than that, I'll bet. And that's what...::stops
himself:: You're tired of this talk already, aren't you?
Quantum Catz: JK: ::shrugs:: It's something to
talk about, ain't it?
YarnKittymon: DL: ::kicks one of his legs up
and down a couple times:: I've heard people go on and on about
how great their woman or man was, and it just made me sick to
hear.
Quantum Catz: JK: ::shakes his head:: I had a
girl before i came in here...right firebrand...came to visit me
soon after i was sentenced and spent the whole time cussing and
swearing at me before tellin me she was marryin one of my mates
::laughs:: Women are wonderful creatures if you can hang onto
them
YarnKittymon: DL: ::laughs in spite of himself::
I'm...sorry to hear that...::but he still can't help smiling a
bit::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::chuckles:: Nah, she was probly
better off with my mate...he's a good guy really...don't know
if he's better off with her right enough
YarnKittymon: DL: ::sobers a little; quietly::
If she finds another man...it's probably better for her, really.
I just want to see her again; I never really got to even say I
was sorry.
Quantum Catz: JK: That's life, i guess... You
don't always get to say you're sorry, even if it's only cos you
can't get in a word edgewise
YarnKittymon: DL: You're right about that...
