Robin smiled to himself as he walked around and sat behind the desk. "Come in."

Comments

"They can't be that flawed, you're still here aren't you," Robin said tersely. "Though you still managed to fuck up your cell so no one can be held in it, and until they fix it you are now officially my problem. Even though, to reiterate, it is the middle of the night, and I was fucking asleep."

"Oh, you don't have to keep an eye on me, I'll be perfectly happy at the nearest hotel," Fin quipped.

[goodfellow]

Robin glared at him. "The last thing I want you to be is happy," he snapped, and grabbed Fin's wrist to haul him up again. Dragging him towards the far door, which opened up into a bedroom.

[prince_of_nymphs]

Fin struggled, surprised by the strength of Robin's grip, and stumbled a little as they headed into the bedroom.

"No?" Fin chuckled. "But I'm such a good boy."

[goodfellow]

"You're a pain in my ass is what you are."

Robin pulled him over to a chest of drawers on one side of the room, and opened a drawer to pull out a set of handcuffs. He yanked Fin's arms behind his back and snapped the handcuffs onto his wrists, then shoved him down to the floor.

[prince_of_nymphs]

He hit the floor hard, but he was still grinning.

"Are you always this grumpy in the morning? ...It is technically morning, right? It's so disorienting in those cells."

[goodfellow]

"Do you want to piss me off?" Robin asked. "Because I'm there already, and you can't seem to keep your mouth shut."

[prince_of_nymphs]

"Most people love my mouth," the fae purred.

[goodfellow]

Robin snorted derisively. "I'll just bet they do. That why you're so popular in there?"

[prince_of_nymphs]

"Everyone's favourite. ...Even some of the guards. I might be willing to give you names, if you're interested in negotiating a better cell for me," Fin offered, twisting in his handcuffs a little.

[goodfellow]

Robin laughed. "You think I care if some of the guards want to fuck that pretty little mouth? Unlessone of them helped you escape - I mean, not escape - I don't give a fuck."

[prince_of_nymphs]

Fin shrugged, leaning back on his bound hands. "Your loss. I suppose you're going to lock me in here for the night then?"

[goodfellow]

"Like I said, you're my problem now," Robin said. "Though I'm thinking I'll just leave you down there on your knees while I go back to sleep."

[prince_of_nymphs]

"Of course, I'd hate to keep you up," Fin replied, his eyes darting over to the door.

[goodfellow]

Robin followed his gaze. Then sighed.

"You are a pain in my ass. Get up." He gestured impatiently at him. "I see I'm going to have to tie you the fuck up."

[prince_of_nymphs]

"Oh, come on, don't be like that," Fin mock pouted. "I'll be good, you can trust me, sir."

[goodfellow]

Robin laughed. "I said get up." He wanted to see him off balance.

[prince_of_nymphs]

The smile faded slightly, and he struggled a little to get to his feet and looking just a bit embarrassed as he nearly stumbled.

[goodfellow]

"Not quite so cocky now, are you?" Robin said. "I hope you realize that when I said you're my problem, that also means you're at my mercy. If you were injured or killed trying to escape, no one would bat an eye."

[prince_of_nymphs]

"If you're trying to intimidate me, you're going to have to try harder," Fin replied, tilting his chin up slightly as he steadied himself. "I don't cower, and I don't tremble, and I definitely don't come quietly."

Growing bold, he stepped closer, steadier now.

[goodfellow]

Robin for his part only looked amused by this show of boldness. "Oh? Do you come loudly then?"

[prince_of_nymphs]

Fin sneered, flashing his teeth, then did something he'd have never done on set or stage- Not without asking first. But this wasn't work and Robin wasn't a co-worker. This was intimate, it was raw.

He spat, not brazen enough to aim for him, but instead at his feet.

[goodfellow]

Robin was genuinely surprised. Damn, Fin was really getting into this. Which was fine with him.

So the initial surprise on his face was real, but the way his expression hardened afterwards was part of the act. And then, Robin slapped him. Not hard enough to leave a mark, but hard enough he'd feel it.

He also didn't make a move after that, not sure if he'd gone too far, and wanting to give Fin a chance to use his safe word if he had.

[prince_of_nymphs]

He'd been struck before, Hex wasn't shy about that sort of thing, but there was still a brief moment of shock before Fin relaxed into it. For the first time he looked scolded rather than surly or smug.

[goodfellow]

Fin didn't seem upset, so Robin moved closer to him and said, "I appreciate that you have your pride - even though you probably shouldn't at this point. But your apparent lack of a sense of self preservation is just fucking stupid."
