Worry

Requested by ShinyDrakeon15

"Again?"

A voice spoke to them from somewhere they couldn't see. They made no move to run.

"Whatever do you mean?"

They asked sweetly as they polished away at a vase they have stolen the day before.

"There's a bounty on your head. Again."

At that they glanced behind, regarding the woman standing in the middle of the room, heavily unamused.

"Is there? That's cute."

They chuckled. Scorpion audibly sighed.

"Are you trying to get yourself killed? Do you let yourself be seen on purpose?"

She went on, stepping closer. They hummed as they placed the vase down on the table they sat at.

"Yes. To the latter, that is."

"But why?"

They leaned back, reaching behind to grasp her cloak and pull her a little further.

"Why not? Having one's likeness plastered on the city walls is quite flattering."

They reasoned. She held their shoulders.

"Anyone could turn you in."

"They'd have to catch me first."

She held on just a bit tighter as she leaned down to rest her head on theirs.

"You're way too careless."

"I prefer the term 'thrill seeking'."

"I worry about you."

A pause. They looked up, their hair brushing against her chin. They only smiled.

"Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why don't you turn me in?"

The mercenary made a series of quiet noises signalling just how appalled she was by the question.

"What kind of question is that?"

"The kind meant to annoy you."

At least they were honest. She sighed and kissed their forehead.

"You're unbelievable."

"I know."
