Ashley stared at him with wide eyes looking like an animal with her tail between her legs "I-I Thorfinn I-I didn't mean to upset you" she sunk into her shoulders sheepishly "I'm sorry" she looked at her feet "I-I just don't understand"
Broderick looked down at her and smirked slightly in amusement "yes but I don't think you would have used them"

"Maybe not, but I'd like to point out that this whole chivalry of giving up the master bedroom thing sort of loses it's charm when it's against my will." the last half of her complaint was growled as she began to struggle to get down from his arms, being stopped by sheer lack of physical power - something she was all too used to.
"I wouldn't ask you if I didn't think it was for the best. Her friends are not the sort of friends you want to be clumped with." he insisted, taking both of her arms in his own & dipping his head to meet her eye properly.

Broderick gently set her down when he reached the room and shook his head "I don't care stay put try and sleep" he nodded and stared at her seriously.
Ashley widened her eyes and stared up at Thorfinn sheepishly "ok Thorfinn...I will keep my distance b-but I am marrying her brother so it's a little hard" she smiled meekly "but I want to try for you"

Tiffany gave him a sharp glare. "You also realize that you can't command people to sleep?" she paused to think about it, "Well, I mean, under certain curses you can, but not legally, you can't."
"You know what I meant." Thorfinn said sternly, giving the blonde an almost fond look of knowingness.

" I am aware of that" Broderick smirked "do I have to stay in here until you fall asleep" he commented cheekily.
Ashley smiled at the look he gave her and nodded bashfully "I know, it means a lot that you look out for me" without thinking about it she slid her fingers softly down his arm and into his fingers "thank you"

She snorted - the idea was a little funny to her. The thought of him desperately trying to stay awake & out-energize her, trying to keep his eyes open until she fell asleep herself. It was unlikely he'd be able to. "Whatever you think works, boss."
Smirking & lacing their fingers, Thorfinn lead her back inside & glanced around innocently, but didn't spot Tiff or Broderick. "Huh." he mumbled innocently, before settling down on the nearest armchair, only now letting go of the blonde.

Broderick smiled at her sweetly and sat down on the edge of the bed smirking cheekily "come on why don't you try and sleep"
Ashley smiled shyly her cheeks turning red as he slipped his fingers into hers when he sat down and pulled away she sat on the arm of his chair and looked down at him hopefully biting on her lower lip.

"No one told you?" she smirked & paced back & forth in front of him, though her eyes stayed fixed on him. "I don't do that." she tilted her head & opened her jacket, setting it aside lazily, left only in her blood-stained shirt that was over her corset, now.
"What is that look for?" he asked her, quirking an eyebrow as a smirk spread across his lips.

"who would tell me that" Broderick rolled his eyes and grinned shaking his head, sighing he shook his head "take your shirt off" laughing at the look he got he nodded at her bloody shirt and handed her one of his "here"
Ashley blushed and looked away letting her hair fall over his shoulders "I'm sorry" she bit on her lower lip shyly fiddling with her fingers.

She glared at him incrediously but wasn't idiotic enough to think that it was sexual. The look that she gave him was more out of shock that he dare command her to -
Sighing, she took the shirt from him & slung it over the nearest chair, turning her back to him before her corset began to unlace itself without her help, the bows flattening & the worn ribbons loosening until the core of the garment dropped a little on her waist, then the rest of the way off of her. She no longer held the curves to keep it supported on its own. Her hair just dusted her upper back as she fiddled with the shirt that he'd given her, giving him another, briefer view of the marred skin that covered her entire back. Pulling on the shirt, she began buttoning it up & turned back around to face him just as she was finishing with the top few buttons.
"That's actually not an answer." he pointed out, looking up at her curiously, a smirk still in place.

Broderick smirked when he actually listened and nodded once "thank you" frowning at her appearence he looked genuinely concerned for her no girl her age should have to deal with the things she has dealt with.
Ashley smiled nervously shaking her head with a blush "I-I don't I mean..I'm not sure what I was doing" she bashfully shrugged

Tiffany gave him a suspicious look when she felt that his eyes were lingering for too long. "What?" she hissed softly, her eyes narrowing, though her face showed defensiveness, vulnerability, not cruelty.
Thorfinn considered trying to recreate the face Ashley had made, but gave up very quickly & blushed a little. "Forget it. You were making a face."

Broderick smiled warmly and shook his head "nothing" he invited himself to take her feet and began to gently massage them in a circular motion. "Lay down" he said as if talking to his 6 yearold niece.
Ashley smiled shyly and shrugged "I wasn't trying to..."

Tiff squirmed nervously & blushed, going quiet for a second, her feet twitching away from his grip nervously. She was unused to an sort of gentle touch that didn't immediately lead into something bad. The last time Brent had taken it upon himself to rub her shoulders, he'd followed it up by half-drowning her in the bathroom sink. Relaxing only slightly, she let the tension vanish from her lower half & leaned back against the pillows, though she kept herself in a mostly upright position.
"See to it that you don't." he teased, nudging her softly.

Broderick smiled at her reaction and chuckled to himself "I am not going to hurt you Tiffany" his face suddenly turned very serious and locked his gaze on her as if she desperately needed to know "I will never hurt you" with that he looked away from her and went back to massaging her feet.
Ashley cocked her head to the side curiously "what did it even look like I mean...was it that bad o-or mean I didn't even realize I was doing it..." she questioned in confusion.
