[Matt manages to ask that without moving his mouth and, if Kilgrave's heartbeat is any indication, without him overhearing them. he has to ask. while he'd like to go, all of this way above his pay grade, realized too late, he brought Jessica here. he did this, even if it wasn't his choice. he won't leave her alone, if it means she's going to die because of him. he'd rather die, himself]
[better make your answer quick, Jessica. here comes the man of the hour]
no subject
[Or at least she hopes she still is. Inoculated against his power by being his favorite play thing.]
You're not.
[So go, Matt, get out of his range fast before he finds a way to snake you back in again.]
no subject
Well, that's annoying. [a beat] Guess it's just the two of us, then. [does he know Jessica's awake? is he just monologuing to himself? it's hard to tell]
no subject
[But that doesn't last long. Jessica is quick to take the advantage and feel the tension of Kilgrave's neck snapping in her hands and it isn't long before the police are arresting her and she is lead off to jail.
She's going to need a really good lawyer, but she isn't sure if Hogarth is ready to take that on yet.]
no subject
Miss Jones. [so they meet again] I heard you had a bad night.
no subject
You aren't my attorney. At least, not the one I called, anyway.
no subject
[and yet he makes no motion to stand up]
no subject
[She sits across from him and studies him for a moment, eyes sharp.]
Kinda curious how you knew I was here, though.
no subject
Would you believe me if I told you the Devil made me do it?
no subject
Depends which Devil you mean - the one the police think I killed, or the Devil of Hell's Kitchen.
no subject
The latter, not -- [he shakes his head] Sorry. [because yeah, he realizes how that probably sounded]
no subject
Look, no offense or anything - I'm not even sure Hogarth can get me out of this. What makes you think you can?
no subject
no subject
Yeah. It's proving it in court that's the tricky part.
no subject
[please take a hint, Jessica. he doesn't just know the Devil of Hell's Kitchen, he is the Devil of Hell's Kitchen]
no subject
She leans back and eyes him differently now.]
So what now? You get me out of here, and then I join your little crime fighting squad?
no subject
I'm kind of a -- a solo act? [there is no crime-fighting squad to join] I'm not doing this because I want something from you.
no subject
[Everyone always seems to be wanting her to join a team, but she's really not interested. She's not looking for the glory - nor is she looking to take out her considerable anger on criminals that might not necessarily deserve it.]
So you're doing this to what? Balance the scales?
no subject
no subject
Do you really think you stand a chance of getting me off?
no subject
[despite her connections and the fact that she's a shark]
no subject
no subject
[plus, if nothing else, he's relentless. if that doesn't work as well as he's hoping, he'll think of something else. he owes Jessica that much]
no subject
There's a support group. You might get more help if you go as you.
no subject
A support group?
[he ... doesn't really do support groups, but]
