[ A part of herself had warned her that this wouldn't work - yet when it seemed like it had, she was happy beyond words. Had she truly won him over? Had she really found the one that understood her? Her heart swelled, triumphant music playing in her head. She leaned in closer, eyelids lowering, ready to seal the deal with a kiss...
"But-"
Record needle scratch.
Rejection she had expected, sadly enough - but for him to flip the script?! ]
Huh?!
[ Wait, what???
He wants her to become... a hero?! There's no way he can be this naïve! Look at her! She's bad to the bone! Drake believing she was a good person was one thing, he was clueless about her criminal career, but why did Darkwing think the same?!
... And why wasn't she instantly rejecting the idea out loud? ]
I... I... I...?
[ It must be because of those gorgeous (familiar?) eyes of his and his gentle touch... and maybe because "touch the hearts and minds of the people" is exactly what she wanted to do with her music in the first place. Does he... actually know that, in his own way? That this criminal path she chose was never the first option? Does he know her better than she knows herself?
Maybe it's also time to test if he's a better kisser than Drake. It'd help the decision making. Really. ]
Darwking... I...
[ Alas, to quote a certain revenge-based series, you didn't think it was going to be that easy, did you?
Alarm bells go off - not metaphorically in their heads, but literally out in the streets. The rest of the band had started the next robbery... but simply went to the store right next to the jewelry store.
Startled and enraged for several reasons, Morgana brakes out of Darkwing's hold to stomp over to the roof's edge and yell - ]
YOU FOOLS! I SAID ROB THE BANK! B-A-N-K! WE WENT OVER THIS SIX TIMES! I DISTRACT DARKWING, YOU GO TO THE BANK! THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU SKIP REHEARASAL!
[ ... Oops. One of those things should not have been said out loud. Sheepishly, she looks over her shoulder at him. ]
