“Bitch,” Grue spoke.
“What?” She snapped her head around to face him. Her eyes flicked over to me and narrowed slightly before they returned to him.
Well that’s certainly not an ominous response when you’re about to confront someone about something, no sirree.
“This whole thing with you not talking? It’s not working.”
A bit more general than I expected, but it does cover not talking about the nomination.
“So?”
“So cut it out. Or at least explain what’s going through your head.”
“What I think is my business.”
“No,” I cut in. I couldn’t help it. “You’re a member of the team, and if you’re thinking about joining the Nine, then that matters.”
Taylor’s got her number. I don’t think Bitch is going to like that Taylor’s caught onto that.
Or that she’s getting involved at all, but still.
And yeah, there are a lot of cases where what Bitch thinks can be important to the team. Hell, a few Arcs ago, her thoughts on Taylor almost lost them a team member.
“I’m not!” She snapped.
Right.
To be fair, she may really not be thinking about joining them so much as letting the tests happen, but it amounts to just about the same thing in practice.
