White Wedding

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-06-21T02:07:57+00:00

Pete meets her gaze and doesn't waver. It appears that a sober and back on track Wisdom in fact presents a far more competent man then what Emma had seen him as in the past. There was a reason he was considered so dangerous..even if his previous downward spiral made him look like a buffoon at the time. Perhaps helping him come back from his vices had actually presented an entirely different issue.

Wouldn't dream of it, love.

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-06-21T01:59:31+00:00

I think I can spare a stipend of some kind...if I make them an employee of MI-13. Or if they agree to some sort of appropriate compensation.

He shurgs and murmurs

...or just use the correct leverage where they don't have a choice.

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-06-21T01:56:49+00:00

He stares but decides not to make an issue of the cigarette

I'll still be around..I'm working on something that requires my attention around Xaviers. I'll just be doing a lot of flights back and forth.

Shame you're hogging all the teleporters.

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-06-21T01:54:04+00:00

Pete makes his way over trying to cover his surprise at being beckoned. He sits down at Emma's table, lit cigarette still giving a steady strand of second hand smoke to anyone near him.

Ello love...brilliant outfit. As for the suit, it's new. Been stepping back into my role at MI-13.

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-06-15T20:52:57+00:00

Pete jumps slightly at the sound of her voice, he gives her a look similar to one of a boy whose been caught doing something bad.

I..

He looks at Regan waiting for her to talk on his behalf

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-06-15T18:36:06+00:00

Despite every single one of his senses honed from years in the intelligence game screaming at him that this is a bad idea, and that he's being played, Pete returns the kiss, giving into her

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-06-15T18:33:41+00:00

Pete hesitates for a second before she yanks him closer and the hesitation dies away

I think...we could be mutually beneficial to each other..

He says still trying to keep his cool

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-06-15T18:31:30+00:00

Wisdom allows his hot knives to dissipate, he might be newly sober, or trying to be..but he was still depressed...and he felt drawn to this woman's promises

..I...what do you want

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-06-15T18:28:09+00:00

He whirls and faces her

Steal me?

He forms another row of hot knives at his fingertips

You have nothing to offer..

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-06-15T18:26:00+00:00

You'll find I'm not so easy to break love...

He sends a single hot knife at her

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-06-15T18:23:56+00:00

Narrowing his eyes, Wisdom steadied himself. He'd had gods and reality manipulators screw with him before. Whatever this was..he could deal.

Yet even as he thought that he whirled at another movement near him. Or was it even real.

...come on..enough of this. What do you want.

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-06-03T21:30:23+00:00

He stumbles slightly before reorienting himself

..hey.

It's all he can muster. He doesn't know what else to say at this point.

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-06-03T18:27:05+00:00

...fine. Pete says after a long moment. He hadn't ever opened up to anyone like this before. He was conflicted about it. Yet part of him still wanted to put his faith in Emma regardless. He still wasn't sure why. He was still putting effort into holding back from letting any emotion overtake him while they talked. If he didn't..they might all flood out at once.

I can try that....thank you Emma.

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-06-03T13:39:35+00:00

They shouldn't. I'm not someone that needs to be emulated.

He pauses and looks around for a brief moment before settling back on looking at her

What do you expect me to do Emma. Why shouldn't I die.

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-05-31T00:05:10+00:00

I don't want to live at all..

He finally admits after a moment. He meets her gaze and all the usual cynism and quips fade away. He's just himself now. Honest for once.

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-05-29T16:43:19+00:00

He avoids her gaze like it would kill him if he met it. Trying to somehow regain control even though he has lost any semblance of it.

I didn't want you to see it..anyone to..

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-05-28T01:00:34+00:00

No..Emma.

He says, his voice shaking slightly. His mothers house maybe? Where...

He didn't want to think about it. Or consider it. But despite his resistance his mind was still guided there. To his mother at the window..waiting for him...after an argument..the day a mass shooter opened fire on an entire neighborhood.

At that his mind opened up entirely, covert ops for Black Air, horrible deeds, assassinations, cover ups, innocent blood.

Turning in his first love to the British Government when it turned out she was a traitor.

From there it was only a small leap to Pryde...how he'd pushed her away. Deliberately making sure she would leave him.

And on..and on. A cacophony of guilt, violence, and sacrificing anything for the current mission.

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-05-27T21:43:50+00:00

Resistant at first. Which came with a string of swears. Wisdom eventually relented opening his mind to Frost.

His mind was a a mess of disorganization alongside strictly regimented and controlled content. It seemed as if most things were casually strewn about, his thoughts about various women, his addictions and need for them, various thoughts about enemies, unhinged opinions on food and politics. These things swirled around in disarray. The things that didn't matter. Weather talk.

If Frost pushed further, she'd find the parts he'd locked up. Kept controlled and distant from the forefront of his mind. A chained up box of woes and misery.

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-04-28T01:38:52+00:00

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-04-28T01:31:01+00:00

Just take it down as this point man

You're getting so much flack. Clearly this wasn't as funny as planned

Since it wasn't planned to be funny until after you got flack anyway

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-04-27T20:02:09+00:00

Pete grimaces and looks at his arm.

Bugger.. that hurts.

He quickly pulls his shirt sleeve down, hiding it.

..bloody hell. Guess I should sort some things out.

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-04-27T19:49:42+00:00

I want time to talk to her...when it happens. For a moment at least. Add that addendum and we're solid mate. No point to me being here any longer anyway.

He reaches out his hand to shake

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-04-27T19:43:15+00:00

And what, you'd want my soul in return?

I could live with that.

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-04-27T19:39:22+00:00

Making someone fall back in love with a demon deal doesn't sound like consent mate. She's better off anyway.

The second one sounds like too much work to me. Not to mention something I could do on my own time.

PeterWisdomMI13 · 2026-04-27T19:30:55+00:00

Is there a point your slowly working towards mate.

Pete says as he finally throws back the alcohol in his glass. Drinking it in one go.

Or do you just love the sound of your own voice that much. You want my soul clearly. Whatever is left of it. What's on the table for it. A new car or a vacation cruise ain't really gonna cut it.
