Bending Rules

The moment he determined he was well enough to attempt a short patrol without seriously hurting himself he took his chance to sneak out. Being stuck in that manor for so long was just too much. Besides, aside from making sure he didn't land badly on his left leg and didn't do too many back flips and swings through the skyline which (he found the hard way) was still too much for the wound just below his rib, he was doing pretty well. He'd even been good and stuck to using the motorbike for most of the patrol.
 
But as his luck would have it he ran across a group on their way to try and rob a bank. Of course, had these idiots been anything but the basest of amateurs it might have been interesting, but as it was he'd ended up ditching the bike to follow them and then camping out and watching from a nearby roof as they tried to get in. For over an hour. It should not have taken anywhere near that long to get past the whole thing let alone the first level of security. The feeling of freedom from confinement was the only thing that let him put up with it. He was sorely tempted to break in and get through the security for them. Just so he could have something to charge them with already. This was such a waste of his time.
 
When they finally got through (about time, he thinks), he decided to give them a few minutes head start before he broke in too. Through a different way. Just to make this interesting.
 
Finally he'd get to do some crimefighting. Although that these amateurs even considered themselves worthy of calling themselves thieves and attempting to break into this sort of bank (it was clear someone smarter had given them the appropriate instructions and equipment for this job) irked him.
 
They'd learn the hard way about amateurish stealing in Gotham.

He very much wants to comment on the 'brave' thing but...no.

"Okay okay, I won't tease. I need cheering up." Although now he steals a kiss because...well you can't wait for everything can you?

Rawr sir.

She sends him a.... good look.

"That won't help you get better. I'd try pouncing you." She figures she should point that out.

That gets her a raised eyebrow and an amused look. "On a roof with 'bacon mouth'?"

"I'd just have to wash my mouth out later." She smirks at him looking amused.

"Alot more."

"So bacon isn't so bad then..." Yes he's positively smirking. He won the challenge after all.

"....Oh no. I wouldn't kiss you normally," she says with a huff. "I'm just nice right now."

"Well don't I feel special then?" A slow smirk forms and he looks rather smug. "Well...I'd say I won the challenge Foxy."

"What challenge."

She looks very annoyed. Thomas had totally read the situation wrong. She had enjoyed kissing him obviously but she hadn't actually challenged him.

That was not a good look. That was a 'you said something wrong, fix it now or else'. "If I could get you to eat bacon?" Not what challenge he was thinking of but...

"Plus I have to hold up my end then." Maybe that will soothe her.

"No. I said I was going to try some."

If she was a Kryptonian? Heat vision.


Yeah she's annoyed. Because he kissed her because he thought she had challenged him.

"But I made a deal with you to get you to try some," he points out. "I promise you don't need to have any bacon again." And he'd kissed her because he wanted to, the challenge just made him even more eager.

"So that's the only reason you kissed me," her tone is very frosty. She's just getting more and more annoyed.

"No." He's very firm on that point. "I've only ever kissed you because I wanted to. End of story." His expression is so serious it'd be difficult to doubt it.

"Good." She looks less annoyed. Coming down from the sub zero mode she shifted into or rather going up.

Much less scary.

It's hard to scare him. But just because he doesn't scare easy doesn't mean he wanted her mad at him.

He pauses then shoots her a small smile, "Thanks." Yes there was a thank you. It's not like he never said it. Just...only when really deserved.

She just gives him a confused look. She had only trusted him on that. She does trust him.

He's weird. At least he's cute.

"For...the stitches," he clarifies. He wants to thank her now that he's not delirious with blood loss. It means more that way for him.

"You... did the same," she looks a bit awkward. Him almost dying had scared her so much. She's not saying a word about that.

"It's not the same thing." He doesn't want to outright say he owes her for her help but...he does. And he'll make up for it one day. After her belated birthday.

"Sure it's not.... I was at your mercy, you know." She chuckles softly.

"But if you want to say that go ahead." She pauses then smiles at him. "You could have ruined me. But you didn't. I appericate it too."

He shakes his head sadly but doesn't say anything. He doesn't know how to say it wasn't equivalent. The worst he could do to her was send her to the police and have her arrested. They'd need to get evidence and that might take a while even if he helped, not to mention the trial and a multitude of other things would give her chances to get away. And if the mob still wanted her? Even better chances of escape.

If she had turned him over to the mob, it'd end up in his death eventually, quickly or slowly it would come. But it was certain. And in that injured condition it'd be difficult to escape, not to mention the others would have a hard time finding him if the mafia kept quiet about it.

"Well I just wanted to say it when I was...more myself."

"Oh." This was awkward. She doesn't know what to say.

She kisses his cheek quickly before she withdrew.

"I should go."

He smiles a bit at her squirming but gets up himself too, "Same. I've still got stuff to finish." He doesn't think he's up for much roof hopping so he'll go get his bike and finish off the night with that.

It wasn't exactly squirming. She was just very uncomfortable with what he had just said.

"Take it easy wen you finally go home," she says carefully. And then she is off.
