Twelfth Night Episode 1 - "Preparations" Day #4

Viola wakes, her head pounding and a massive crick in her neck from where she had slept awkwardly against the stone floor of the basement room she and Sebastian are locked in. She rolls onto her other side so that she can see Sebastian on the other side of the room. He groans briefly in recognition that he is awake.

Not to say that she hadn't gone down without resistance, but it had been Sebastian who had put up the bigger fight. He had taken a few hard knocks the previous night.

She hadn't known Rybald until the previous night, although she had heard of his ruthless techniques and his reputation had not been unfounded. Viola wiggles and squirms her hands...there is some wiggle in her ropes. She grins impishly. Just like an over-confident, bull-headed, arrogant, scheming, malicious, pompous, conniving...she breathes in and lets gathers in her unchecked emotions. Just like a man to underestimate me. She wiggles her wrists a little more to test the bindings and make sure that it hadn't been her imagination - no, there is definitely a little give...
