[ Vex wasn't the hardiest of foes, he was downright cowardly and everything he did was motivated by survival. However, survival told him that double-crossing Rafa, the man he loved, in any way shape or form would lead to a death which would make Janus' torture-tactics feel like a walk on the beach.
Still, he howled when his fingers were broken, when his eye was blackened, shakily sassed with replies of 'what powers?' 'mayor who?' 'i'm self employed, thank you, would you like to see my taxes?' - ow, his stomach. At least it wasn't his groin this time. Somewhere during all of this he began to come to a slow, but distinct realization that something was wrong.
More wrong than being tortured and having his powers suppressed, but like this entire world, his entire life wasn't supposed to be like this. It clicked when the vibrations began, and the clear thought of 'Rafa' struck his mind. Rafa. The beach house. His teeth in his neck, the sound of the ocean-- Xistentia.
But before he could yell about this revelation to Janus the blighter was gone. Where did they go!? Vex didn't have much time to think before he heard the massive noise and was faced with, not the leader he loved, but the vamp he loved. ]
Bloody hell... [ He groaned because normally he'd be overjoyed for this rescue, but he knew how damaged he must look, which meant that Rafa was going to completely obliterate a creature who was actually innocent. And as tempting as it was to not give a damn, Vex was trying to turn over a new leaf. ]
Shit, love, listen to me. It isn't his fault, he's under a... ugh, what do you even call it!? Agh! [ The moment Rafa got his hands free he yanked the IV out, needing his head to be clearer to try and explain this. ] Ruddy thing... [ He hissed as he rubbed his uninjured hand against his stinging shoulder. ] This, all of this, this is going to sound mad, but it's not real. We're not meant to be here!
