Hm.

[ He holds his tongue from telling her she doesn't know the first thing about the rune. The...tingling isn't as bad as it could be. It makes him feel a little itchy and irritated, but he knows it could be worse. ]

[ Evil... ]

[negativegate]

Hmm...

[There's no satisfactory result in the blastia yet, so she increases the input, causing the tingling to become more of a light throbbing.]

[Genius B|]

[blackshadow]

[ Are they...vibrating or something? It just feels weird and unnatural, and almost like the tune is coming alive. He glances over to his hand - maybe not the beat idea - to see what's happening. Maybe it'll be easier if he watches it. ]

[ haha she wishes >:| ]

[negativegate]

[There's a very faint vibration and a slight buzzing sound, though most of the sensations will be in his hand. Rita lets it go on for a little while before raising it again. The throbbing might start to get painful...]

[Tyr just doesn't understand!!! B|]

[blackshadow]

[ He hates how it feels and that little sound. What exactly is she trying to do...? But the longer it goes on, it really does go from ticklish to too much. ]

It's not working.

[ She has to work on her denial. >B| ]

[negativegate]

I'l be the judge of that.

[And she raises it further, still without turning to look at him.]

[Nope no denial. B|]

[blackshadow]

[ Even without looking at him, he makes a pained gasp as she makes it stronger and tries to pull his hand back. It hurts... ]

You...

[ She's awful. She's an idiot. ]

[ Deep denial. :| ]

[negativegate]

[Good thing the belts are holding, she thinks absently. More importantly, she muses out loud-]

A stronger input on this setting isn't too much for your body to handle...

[And higher. Higher.]

[Nononope.]

[blackshadow]

[ He keeps trying to move against the restraints to free himself even though he can't get far. The feeling... It's not like something he's experienced before, but he's suddenly aware of all the bones and nerves in his hand and the way it sits on the arm of the chair. ]

But... [ It hurts... ] What's happening?

[ stubborn in denial... ]

[negativegate]

Nothing you need to think about.

[She still has no response from the rune, though. It's not entirely surprising--she didn't expect it to be this easy to figure out what it would respond to. It just means she has to keep exploring different options.

She lets it go on a little longer, then finally deactivates the formula.]

[Never ever!!]

[blackshadow]

[ Even once she stops it, he can still feel that dull ache in his hand. It really feels like pins and needles... ]

Come on...

[ and the sky isn't blue ]

[negativegate]

[Only now does she finally turn to him, one eyebrow raised.]

What? You want to keep going?

[Th-they sky has nothing to do with it!!]

[blackshadow]

The sooner you do the sooner this'll be over...

[ He doesn't even meet her eyes. ]

[ so not a genius... ]

[negativegate]

[She's silent for a moment, and then a cold smile creeps across her face.]

What do you know? You actually understand that much.

Anyway, I need to move on to a different approach until I find one that gets results. You could be here for a while.

[H-huff, so is!!]

[blackshadow]

[ He glares at her when she says that. It makes him more stubborn in knowing that he's better than this and the actual Rita knows that, too. This time, it's his voice that sounds almost malicious. ]

At this hour, you don't have much time left anyway.

[ Nope, not in any way. ]

[negativegate]

[He has some nerve having that much attitude in his position, she thinks, and she sneers at him.]

Maybe it's past bedtime for a brat like you, but I can do this all night.

[In every way!!]

[blackshadow]

Don't get careless.

[ He gets some satisfaction from getting under her skin like this. Even if she'll hurt him (and he's still in pain), he likes insulting her. ]

[ haha, that's a good one! ]

[negativegate]

Like this?

[And she'll "carelessly" reactivate the blastia, bringing back the throbbing at the same strength as when she stopped it.]

[It's true!!]

[blackshadow]

Ahn-!

[ He bites his lips shut and tries pulling his hand back again. ]

Just...like that.

[ It's not funny if you keep saying it... ]

[negativegate]

Hmph. Still feel like being an idiot?

[She lets it continue a few moments longer, then doesn't feel like wasting more time, so she shuts it off.]

[It's not supposed to be funny!! :<]

[blackshadow]

[ He groans quietly when it finally shuts off. Sadistic witch... He slowly shakes his head. ]

[ then why is she making the joke??? ]

[negativegate]

[She smirks, then strides over to check and make sure he's not dying or anything.]

Injuries?

[It's not a joke!! :<]

[blackshadow]

[ He looks up at her again, and despite his eyes being a little watery, he doesn't look anything but angry. ]

Just on the one hand...

[ ...so what is it? ]

[negativegate]

[Her face stays impassive, and she leans over to inspect the hand with the wires.]

Human flesh is pretty weak, isn't it?

[The truth!!!]

[blackshadow]

[ What a disgusting thing to say. He almost looks confused when she says that. ]

And you want to be completely blastia?

[ ahaha, there's the punchline! ]
