and, finally,
dom's one true talent, elijah thinks, is his unerring ability to maneuver under elijah's skin and piss him off thoroughly in a matter of moments. it's only the ones we really love who know how to find those particular buttons, the buttons we don't even know exist, the ones that light fires where we didn't even see the spark.
and so dom can get elijah very angry very fast. full steam ahead, hands waving in the air, strings of curses shooting out of his mouth and then. then dom puts his impeccable timing to use, letting out a snicker just a half a moment before elijah jams his vans on his feet and stumbles out the door. dom laughs and elijah is flooded with relief in spite of losing the game. again. elijah never wins. it's one of the rules. unless the winning is found in the wethothard that always follows, passion funneled elsewhere, ricocheting between the extremes of hate and love. where the tips of his fingers skitter across dom's back, lacking nails like dom's that leave half moons wherever they go.
if that's winning, maybe elijah isn't doing so badly after all. though he's undoubtedly breaking a rule.
