ky had truly hoped that his words would suffice to her question. even if he already regretted every single word already. still, it wasn’t like he could take it back now – he was vulnerable and more importantly… she had some form of power over him. ky never would admit it, but she did.
a reason to why he moved his right hand under her chin for a few moments. again, a thought of just ripping her apart came to mind, but he ignored it. as usual when his thoughts turned dark around her. instead, he moved to press his lips against hers – to do as instructed and kiss her.
“I’M certain you’re not the first one to be unarmed with knowledge,” she replied, crossing her arms. “What size drops are we talking about, though? Large ones? Or small? Those two would, of course, fill the cup in an entirely different way.”
She was guiding the conversation, certainly, all whilst avoiding telling him her name. She was no ‘master of espionage’ for no reason, after all. Everything she did was guided, calculated, planned-out; in this conversation, as with every other simple, introductory conversation she ever had, Peggy was evaluating the situation, all to decide whether or not she’d divulge her own name, or if she’d prefer to leave the other participant unfulfilled.
“Small, just enough to be noticeable, but not enough to do anything about it.” Maybe it was a bit more than that, Ky knew where to start, but anything more, and he was in the dark. Last time he went down one of the more… easier leads he found himself in position that changed his life.
So, he knew that looking into this shit, and even his own past wasn’t something he should do now or ever. Though, when did that ever stop him? Especially the last few years – truth be told, it didn’t, but he still was far more than a little uneasy when he went down routes that could be potentially problematic. “Think of it as a few last drops of expensive Whiskey. As much as you want it… you know it won’t amount to anything. Maybe a small taste, but nothing more.” A pause. “Even so, in my case, those drops could ultimately lead to a flood gate, but what’s on the other side of it? Well, that’s up for… debate.”

“ you’d rather i steal it then?” it wouldn’t be too hard, but ky was trying to make this as legal as possible. “’cause, that could be arranged.”

Unwilling or otherwise… Ky enjoyed having an audience. He could have taken some humans, but why waste such a good opportunity? No, he’d make sure to take the unworthy one.
The same one he wanted to rip apart. True, Thor was amusing at worst and talented at best, but if anyone was going to end the Thunderer? Well, it would be himself – even if fate managed to say otherwise.
“Don’t you know?” he asked, grin spreading across his lips. “See, I thought we could talk.”No, Ky wanted to boast – even if he wouldn’t admit it. “You’re not going to be worthy anytime soon – neither will i.” his hands slipped in his pockets. “However, i was thinking we could make a little… deal of sorts.” A lie, it wasn’t a deal – it was more of attempting to force the unworthy one to agree. “You help me with my problem and i’m sure i’ll find a way to help you with… your own.”
HE KNEW SAYING THESE THINGS WOULD fall on deaf ears, but ross felt better for saying them. however, the finger that poked him squarely in the chest was gripped and twisted away from his person. the man didn’t let up. “fully human or not, there is more than one species in this galaxy. i’d say ask the guardians but they’re pretty much all gone. whether you’re human or not, you reside in this universe therefore you are effected. it’s your war.” with the utterance of his last word, ross releases ky’s hand and straights himself out. “fuck off for all i care. but if you come crawling back, needed help, you won’t find it with me.”
ROSS WAS RIGHT. this war was his own – far more than he realized and it was a chance to do some good for once. though, ky wasn’t in the mood to actually attempt it or even do so. why make anything right when the world – no universe just needed to be tipped a bit further down into chaos. part of him knew it was wrong to do so, but at the same time? he just didn’t care – not when he firmly believed that his involvement wasn’t needed one way or another. “not my war,” he affirmed bluntly. “i didn’t start it and i wasn’t involved. ” it was like he was a broken record – either way? he was done trying to justify himself or his actions. at least to him. “human or otherwise? i’m not going to pick up the pieces when i never was wanted in this universe to begin with.”
he should have known she’d say that; wanting the answer was good and all, but the reality of the situation was vasty different. ky could have said the truth out-right, could have even done many things – the only problem was he didn’t want to. no, ky would keep his silence on the matter. that way, he wouldn’t pull anything that he’d almost certainly regret in the near future.
as such, a deep breath was taken in, and then let out slowly. instantly, he knew what he’d say he’d most certain come to regret ( what he’d been trying to avoid ). all the same there was no going back now. “It’s… complicated.” already he could feel the entire world clasping around him. “i don’t… care… i don’t love in a way you’d understand.” or maybe it was just ky trying to not explain his feelings. either way? he couldn’t stop now- not in the slightest.
“we’re having fun – i… i’m having fun.” a pause as he ran a hand over his face. “it never lasts long anyways,” he said, letting another deep breath out. “you don’t have a future with me – no one does.” he actually sounded sad for a moment, but then his tone changed back to somewhat normal. at least for the moment. “look, i care about you more than i have anyone,” a truth, but one he wasn’t entirely sure was accurate, “i really do an’ there have been times i’ve wanted to rip you apart, but i don’t – if that doesn’t mean i care? that i give a fuck about you? well, i don’t know what does.”
after a few seconds he spoke again. “what i do know is that i wouldn’t be anywhere else right now. if that’s not enough? well… tough.”
