monday's child is fair of face (2/2)

CW: death, probably gore, possibly more TBA

[and that’s what you missed on glee.

and so, there “Friday” is, standing on the roof of the bar. the attention of the party has surely turned to her by this point, but she doesn’t care about that. she just needs one person to still be a little too distracted to stop what was coming next.

Monday snaps her fingers, and Jenny disappears from wherever she was standing before, reappearing directly in front of Monday, who embraces her from behind, an arm wrapped firmly around her middle. those with enhanced senses might catch what she whispers, seconds before she snaps Jenny’s neck so hard it hangs at a 90 degree angle as Monday kicks her, her corpse toppling forward onto the deck below.]


Surprise, bitch.

[well, there. unfinished business settled. onto more pertinent matters.]

Let’s get a little more comfortable first, hm? Can’t waste too much of her magic, but audiences love a quick change.

[she snaps her fingers, and Monday finds herself in an outfit that is far more to her taste. now. time for her grand performance.]

Greetings, foolish mortals! You may or may not have noticed that things have been a little bit different this month. While the Captain is off having a good old bitch cry about whatever it is he’s so upset about, poor little Friday was running herself ragged keeping this shitheap floating! She was so distracted, in fact, that she happened to have a little accident, while fixing something in the elevator shaft! [a laugh] I guess even clay bitches can break their necks! And there I was, sitting in Fucking Nowhere, doing Fucking Nothing, feeling Fucking. Nothing! And I saw her empty shell. And I was, like, hey, free real estate!

Whatever tear in the veil that your whiny little Captain just didn’t feel like fixing? I ripped that fucker right open. And you’ve all met a few of the sorry little fuckers that fell out already, hm? [another snap] Not all of them, but, hey, that’s what now is for, right? Because, see, we all kinda got together a little bit, and we were like… You know, just borrowing some shitty bodies to have some fun for a few weeks? What a waste! And we still have a lot of bitches we need to spring from jail!

And that! Is where you assholes come in! And, trust me, you are all assholes. Have you even seen some of the psychotic shit you people have said and done to us? Like, yeah, Mary is legitimately insane, but she’s still a kid! Even I’m not gonna call a fucking nine year old a bitch!

You can try to run, but I fucking hate running in heels, so I made that a little bit… difficult. So. Why don’t you nice people just lay down and let us kill you. I’ll be gentle. Promise.

[perhaps people have tried to flee already. they likely have. and they’ve found that the entire party area has been blocked off by the same sort of barrier that surrounds the realm, an invisible orb holding them captive.]

Now. Let’s get the actual party started!

"Yeah, I made my fucking choice," he says, "And I'm warning you. back off or I'll kill you."

Every time he takes two steps backward, one forward, getting them closer and closer to where Friday's standing. He takes a good, hard swing at her now, wondering how good she is at this and if she can block it.

"Actually, I think I'll do it anyway. I'm gonna take your fucking head off."

His gaze flicks over to Friday, not Darcy, when he hisses out the last bit. C'mon, Darcy, please understand me.

"Yeah, fucking try it-"

That might be a nod, or she might just be moving her head. Lucky for Vance, Darcy is very good at this, and she parries the blow, counter-attacking with a hit that just barely shaves one of his curls off.

"I dare you."

"Oh, I'm gonna enjoy this," he says, still following the same pattern (one step forward, two steps back). How close are they, now?

Another swing.

"I'll think of you when I'm pulling the captain's teeth out with pliers," he says, referencing their earlier conversation, "Now get the fuck down."

He raises the sword with both hands over his head and strikes. If she's understood him here, she'll feign a hit and get down. He'll have a better chance if he looks like he's winning.

Honestly Vance has not made it easy for her because this is the most obvious attack she's ever seen and if Izzy saw her take this hit, he'd skin her.

But she does it. She blocks badly and getting smacked in the face with her own weapons like a fucking moron, and she takes the fall. Better hope she doesn't get back up again, Poodle.

1/2

"Oh, man, I am finally gonna see some fucking tits," he says, "That son of a bitch doesn't have any Playboy."

He grabs Darcy by the arm and yanks her up to her knees, his sword at her neck the whole time.

"You're a Jesus freak, yeah?" he says, taking the sword in both hands and aiming it at Darcy's neck like he's aiming a golf club, "I'll be fucking nice and give you three seconds to say your prayers. One, two - "

2/2

"- three!"

And with that he pivots and turns to slash at not-Friday's neck, hopefully leaving enough room for Darcy to launch up from her knees and stab at her as well.

If they die here, they die here, and the triple-agent gambit he's playing means he can't even say what he wants to say right now. He hopes the fact that he's willing to go down fighting beside her says all that he needs to say.

Thanks for being my friend.

She's absolutely going to noogie the shit out of him for the dig later, but thank God that he was actually trying to do a gambit and she wasn't just going nuts.

Darcy springs back up to strike at Friday's torso in a long lunge, hoping that he wasn't obvious enough to tip her off.
