Killey/Lorelai for redwhiteflag
----
"Idiot."
Killey's insult came at Lorelai's inability to figure out the mechanism. The woman had grabbed a hold of a switch and had been pushing it forward for some time without any results. When she stepped back in frustration, the crimson-cloaked man took hold of the switch and pulled it back.
"Argh..." Lorelai watched as Killey walked past her and into the opening doorway. "Shut up!" she snapped, following him deeper into the ruins.
"A brilliant comeback, as usual."
Having nothing to say to that, Lorelai simply groaned. "How did I end up stuck with you again...?" she complained, turning to glare at the man. "Oh, I know. It's because you're a sad little man who's obsessed with following me."
"Get over yourself," Killey told her as they approached another sealed door. "In case you haven't noticed all these years, it just so happens we're interested in the same thing. Or is that little brain of yours incapable of grasping the high probability that we'll run into each other because of this?" He grabbed a hold of the handle on the door and pulled, but it did not budge. He tried again and again, but to no avail. "What the...?"
Lorelai shook her head and pushed the door open, turning to give Killey a look of disgust. She then moved past him, a smile forming as the reciprocated--and much deserved--insult swept past her lips.
"Idiot."
