ILYA.

_{His men pulled out their guns on Elliot as he reached in his coat only to lower them as he revealed his cigarette pack. The bratva narrowed his eyes. Apologize? Him apologize? He meant what he did and he in no way felt bad or remorseful for doing so. It would be a waste of breath and a pointless lie. Putting his hands on his hips let and out humorless laugh, slowly shaking his head. The nerve of this man. He pushed his hair back from his face and met the German’s eyes with his own.}

_{“You are really in no position to ask such things. Now, why are you here? Unless it’s to die I recommend talking.” Ilya advised gesturing towards him with an open hand. How on earth he managed to find one of their hideouts? And to so audaciously show his face here. By all rights he should have killed on the spot yet he chose against it. Perhaps it was some sliver of respect or a curiosity as to what the German can do.}

_{———❝ YOU WOULD KILL ME? and here i came with only good intentions in mind… ❞
the man clicked his tongue in distaste, a smile just under the surface of his somewhat theatrical performance. blowing his smoke in ilya’s direction, he flicked a bit of ash off the end of his cigarette. where to begin?}

_{❝ i have a deal i would like to discuss in private ; no guns, no posse. and to sweeten the pot — ❞
he took a last drag off his tobacco, folding the cigarette filter into his hand and displaying it before his russian counterpart. in an instant, it turned to ash as a searing fire overtook his palm.}

❝ … i’d be willing to undo the damage to your face. ❞
with that, the ash in his palm reignited a white flame, reforming into the tan end of his prior smoke.

_{fuckbuddies or enemies, elliot and ilya are always at each other’s throats in one way or another. i can imagine elliot would be game for it, considering he finds ilya very attractive. @thewolfs-son}

_{———IT WAS A TWIST TO THE BLADE WHICH HE’D BURIED NEXT TO THE HATCHET. despite his animosity, the german had come not merely to taunt the russian swine. he’d been out longer than he’d have liked, the beating he took during his mind controlled hours something of a mystery to him alone. informed of the events, he’d come to discuss it with the man himself.}

_{❝ you’re awfully cocky for a guy who looks straight out of a batman comic? ❞
reaching a hand into his coat pocket, he maintained eyes contact as he slowly raised a pack of cigarettes. there was no need to alarm him with any sudden movements, even if his gun was tucked away in the waistband of his pants.}

❝ you may apologize whenever. i’ll wait. ❞
to that, he placed the cigarette between his teeth, protruding end lit in the absence of a match.
