[He laughs] Hey, you're the one offering a "later". And you know, I don't generally jump right to assuming anyone could or would eat my face for lunch. Now that's disgusting.
[She gives him a look.] Right. People're funny like that when some asshat gets on national television and tells th'cock-sucking leeches t'rise up and subjugate humanity...
[A wicked grin spreads slowly across her face, as Oni leans ever-so-slightly closer.] ... Vraiment? You really don't remember, do you?
[Giving him back his personal space, the she-wolf throws her head back and laughs.] Now, that's karma.
Actually, no. That's nowhere near karma, but considerin' you can't even recognize yer own enemies? Th'gods must have a much more severe punishment in store for you [She winks, but there's nothing friendly about the gesture.] Frost.
[He frowns, anger flashing in his eyes for a moment. Not remembering is one thing, but having it seen as a weakness? That rankles. But the flash of anger is gone as fast as it was there, and then he's just smirking again]
Guess you and me were pretty tight.
[He shakes his head] I don't need to remember to know the most important thing. [He leans in close, flashing fang] I'm still here. And I think that might scare you a little. Am I wrong?
[She didn't miss the teeth. For a second, she considered changing into glabro-- Taller and broader than him, with a mouthful of her own teeth --but, no. The less he knew, so much the better. And she suspected that her frostiness* in the face of his anger would irritate him all the more.]
Scare me? Please, don't flatter yourself. [And then she leaned closer still, all but whispering softly in his ear.] You're not th'only one who's come back from th'dead.
[Irritate? Maybe. But it definitely entertained him to engage in a Frost-off*. Assholes do love measuring dicks, after all. One could say their relationship is...tainted.*]
You know, I honestly could give no shits about the memory loss thing. I'm a sucker for new beginnings, fresh starts. But...I admit that your..or our?..story sounds intriguing.
((*I do!!! Unfortunately, it looks like Deadpool is writing Frost's narration, and I apologize if he saw that line and danced right on over it. O.o))
As if I had any need t'lie. [On the contrary, she's sort of kicking herself for not having realized sooner that he couldn't remember That Thing That Happened In LA. If she had, she'd have begun lying to him much sooner.]
