The man from Insincerity? He drugged me - forced me to eat nuts. He almost had me skinned when I said I was disappointed with his size. I do not think he appreciated my tongue.
[She chuckles, though what happened between her and Roman hadn't been pleasant at all. Her expression, though, grows serious with Harley's explanation.]
I think you're the only person who has understood. It is horrid that you do... but I appreciate it all the same. Imagine! We shall live like queens between the two of us.
[ and harley's eyes, which are frankly still narrowed from hearing about this other dickhead from charlotte's past, suddenly become even harder than that. ]
... which man was that, exactly?
[ because she thinks she might have an idea of exactly who it is, but she's not going to make any assumptions because she knows what that will do. ]
I forget his name. Kind of small. Kind of slimy. He walks round like a dog but he acts like a bitch. I thought he was joking when he asked for my clothes in the middle of the club but the bastard forced me to strip.
It's not the first time a man has humiliated me but he was the first to drug me as well.
I have thought to seek revenge but... what am I supposed to do?
[ now she really is starting to seethe, and not at charlotte, but it might be harder to hear her through the firm grit of teeth as she sucks in a breath. ]
Roman friggin' Sionis. That's who it was, wasn't it.
[ she almost doesn't need to wait for charlotte's answer. ]
Don't. Don't do anything, not yet. We'll figure somethin' out. He doesn't get to just get away with this.
Yes - YES! Yes, Roman. He owned the club - the first one we -
[Despite how badly that night turned out once Roman had caught sight of her, she would take the assault a million times over for that time with Harley again.]
I think it's about time we were treated as equals - women, submissives, all of it. I'm fed up with this, you know? Not just Roman. The city - all of it. We have to be able to do something.
[ and truthfully, she had probably been either too distracted by having a drunk conversation in the ladies' room or dealing with trying to avoid roman by trying to convince zsasz to pretend he hadn't seen her. ]
Well, takin' on Roman Sionis is one thing. Takin' on the city? That's a whole different enchilada.
It's different for you though. You can do as you like. For me, this place has more restrictions than London. And with Lucy here. Her cunt is tighter than a miser's purse, I'm telling you, Harley. They'll keep her in the People Zoo for refusing to fill her damn quota unless they at least let me fill it for her. You and I alone should fill it enough for her as well as I.
I hate to break it to ya, but I don't know that it really could even work like that.
[ sure, if there was a way for her to like transfer over some of her bangs to charlotte's sister, she'd do it in a heartbeat, because she really has no qualms about getting hers, but. ]
It's not like givin' somebody money. Sooner or later she might just have to start gettin' creative with it.
