"I know you wouldn't...I...I didn't mean it like that."

Babs' heart was racing concerned over all that tempter that flared out of Kara. "No...I don't think so anyway. You clocked me good but I don't think broken my face good." Was her cheekbone and eye gonna bruise? Probably, as well as her ribs but it was the risk of sparring. "Hey, listen to me. It's a sparring session,I can't improve my dodging without getting clocked a few times first...you can't always pull your punches. And I did goad you on...I should...not have taunted you."

"Shared blame?" she asked clicking her fingers so Kara could hear that her hand was close to hers, she was offering a handshake.

"A real greasy cheeseburger sounds good right about now. I know a terrible place, you are gonna love it." It was a quintessential dinner right where the city's biggest highway turned into the interstate and a bit of a drive but it had decent burgers and was quiet this time of day.

She shrugs when Babs says that she shouldn't have taunted Kara. It wasn't Babs' fault, she just has a temper these days. She wants to explain herself, shake the blame off of her friend, but she stops herself. Not everything needs to be fixed. Her eyebrows furrow with the sound of snapping fingers, but then she smirks as she realizes what Babs wants from her. "Deal. I keep my temper in check... and no more taunting." She follows the sound of snapping without much caution, taking a second to find the other woman's hand before solidly shaking it.

"Terrible, huh? Please tell me they at least wash their hands?" It's mostly a joke, but she's also got a finicky immune system. Maybe a decent burger is worth the risk, she considers. She wants to stop feeling so fragile.

Babs' stupid joke pulls a genuine laugh out of her. She’s missed that. “Believe me even if I could see, you wouldn’t want me driving." She'd never even got her license despite many attempts. Alex would often let her drive anyway and she was... okay, but not reliable by any means. She turns to grab her bag of essentials, takes off her wraps and shoves them back in before making her way back to her friend, holding out a hand, so it can be placed against Babs' arm.

Protective Sentences, Vol. 5

(Sentences for muses that are protective of another. Adjust phrasing where needed)

"Am I allowed to ask who you're protecting me from?"

"Someday you'll thank me, or you won't. I don't care; you'll be alive."

"I know you want answers, and we'll find them, but just leave things with me for now."

"I only wanted to protect you."

"Stop it. This is your subconscious desperately trying to protect you, but there's no need. You are protected."

"If you hurt her, you know I'll kill you."

"I only want what's best for you."

"I was trying to protect you. The less you know, the better."

"Close your eyes. I don't want you to see me do this."

"It's my job to keep you alive, and you're making it damn difficult!"

"I'm not leaving you like that again. I don't care what you say; you're stuck with me."

"Just go outside and enjoy yourself, and forget about all this nonsense. I want you to leave it all to me."

"I would burn in hell to keep you safe."

"I did what I could to protect you from the horrors of this world."

"I know you'll always look after me. Right?"

"What if I harmed the ones who have harmed you? What if I made them scream apologies?"

"Do you promise that I'm going to be okay?"

"Don't be upset. What I've done is the right thing to protect you."

"I hope you understand if I ask you to sit this one out."

"You're not alone. I'm standing right beside you."

"Everything's going to be okay. I'm not going anywhere."

"If I had to choose someone to save, it would have been you."

"I've always looked out for you, and I always will. Don't lose faith in me now."

"I'm not concerned about me. I know exactly how I will navigate myself out of whatever it is I have gotten myself into."

"I can help you, if you ask me to, at great risk to my career and my life."

"What did you come here for if not to be protected?"

"Everything I do is for you. To please you. To protect you."

"I need you to know that whatever happens, wherever you go, you're not going to do it alone."

you  wanna  talk  about  loyalty?

no  offense,  but  if  you're  the  last  to  know,  that's  on  you.

go  ahead  -  pretend  like  it  wasn't  your  idea!

they  deserve  to  know  the  truth.

you  didn't  hear  this  from  me,  but  -

this  whole  time,  and  you  didn't  say  a  word?

it  wasn't  supposed  to  get  this  far!

you  can't  rewrite  history.

oh,  i'd  never  say  it  to  their  faces.

it  was  supposed  to  stay  between  us.

we're  all  thinking  it,  i  just  said  it.

you're  not  as  untouchable  as  you  act.

do  you  even  feel  guilty?

they  warned  me  about  you.

go  ahead,  make  it  worse.

if  you  repeat  this,  i'll  deny  everything.

the  next  thing  out  of  your  mouth  better  be  an  apology.

you're  about  three  seconds  away  from  regretting  this.

you  keep  pushing,  and  i'll  push  you  back.

they're  going  to  find  out.

one  more  lie,  and  i  walk.

they're  lying  to  you.

i  don't  owe  you  any  explanation.

you'll  miss  me  before  i  miss  you.

smile.  you're  ruining  the  mood.

i'd  watch  that  tone  if  i  were  you.

we  both  know  this  is  over.

"I don't deserve you. Maybe someday I will."

"I know I'm a monster, but you love me like a man."

"I hope to someday be someone you'll be proud of."

"I'm not the easiest to love, but you do it, anyway…?"

"After everything I've done, and you're still here. Why?"

"You are the best thing I've ever had in my life… thank you."

"There's nothing I could do to actually scare you off, is there?"

"You're so easy to love. But, how can you love me so easily, too?"

"I'm trying to be easier to love. Thank you for being patient with me."

"You deserve better than me. You deserve better than all of this mess."

"I want you here with me, I do. But you don't need to be in this wreckage."

"I'm not perfect, I know I'll never be. But I want to at least be good enough for you."

"How can someone as sweet and kind as you stand being around someone like me?"

"I don't things right the first time… except one. Love at first sight with you? I got that right."

"I don't know why you insist on caring about me, but it's more than anyone else has ever done."

"I love you. I love you so damn much. And I know I'm not someone who deserves the same back, but I'm… I'm trying to be."

"You're the sun, the stars, and everything shining and good… and I don't see how you could care for someone as dark as me."

Face meet floor...

Kara might be blind and no longer packing the strength of a freight train but she is a 6 ft 3 woman with the might that came from being taller.

"Aou.." Babs groaned and yep she tasted Kara's anger right alongside the course of humble pie that was served and took the air right out of her. Babs got back to her feet, she could use that opening...if she wasn't done getting her ass kicked for the moment.

"You win this round Kar... I need a milshake and an ice pack" They could continue to spar after some recovery. Babs' face drops seeing Kara's posture. She sighed and felt sorry for her. Not a pity sort of sorry, more a...I'm sorry you are so easy to have your buttons pushed.

"Kara?" she called and reached for her taking firm steps so Kara could hear her approaching. "Are you okay..?" she sounded and looked so angry.

Babs couldn't even imagine what the world would be like if she lost her sight.

you're fucking kidding me, right?

stop. just -- stop.

you don't care about anyone but yourself.

you were a mistake.

hit me, then.

fuck you.

get fucked.

screw you, dude.

i swear to God if you don't shut up . . .

don't fucking touch me.

do us both a favor and just die.

you're a joke.

you really think you have the upper hand?

you'll have to kill me, then.

i wasted so much time on you.

i saw what you did.

i'm going to turn you in.

you can't hide from the truth.

the law will catch up to you, just wait and see.

you must think you're untouchable.

your secret is out.

are you threatening me?

am i supposed to be afraid of you?

you don't scare me.

was that your plan?

you're pathetic.

how do you live with yourself?
