"The creatures, the creatures..." He mocked.
"You forgot your wife."

*In one swift, violent motion, Victor covered the short distance between the two of them and let loose with a full-strength punch to Moreau's jaw*

*Moreau went down hard, hitting the stone floor with a 'thud', the chains jangling almost musically. He lay there in an undignified heap, unmoving*

"You're quite wrong about that."
*With silence reigning once again, Victor went back to preparing the lab for the very first experiment he'd conduct there.
On Moreau.*

**MUCH LATER**
*Moreau slowly regained consciousness. The first thing he noticed, when he opened his eyes, was that he was staring at the ceiling. The second thing he realized was that he was no longer chained to the wall--rather, he was strapped down to the table he'd seen brought in much earlier. He tested his bonds, making sure, but yes they were indeed done well. He wouldn't be escaping.
At that moment, Victor entered the room, looking irritatingly cheerful*
"What's going on here?" Moreau demanded.

"Oh, nothing," he replied airily. "I'm just going to do run a few tests on you."
*As he spoke, he moved about the room, gathering things for the first series in the experiment.*

*Because of the angle, Moreau couldn't quite see what Victor was up to*
"Tests...you mean, this is an experiment. How droll."
*Part of him was intrigued--what was Victor trying to accomplish?--but another part would rather not know what was coming*

*Victor approached the table leaning over just enough so that Moreau could see the syringe in his hand*
"Very observant of you."
*He held up the syringe*
"I should warn you, this won't be pleasant."
*There was a pause*
"Actually, I lied--it's going to be pure agony."

*Moreau smirked at Victor, though inwardly his fight or flight instinct had kicked in*
"Sinking to my level, are we? Congratulations."
*He winced as the needle went into his arm, the whatever-it-was injected into his system*
"I hope you're proud of yourself."

"I shouldn't be the one you're worrying about right now," Victor said, as he moved to put the syringe away. Once done with that, he headed out, pausing in the doorway* "Five minutes." *And he left *

**NEW NIGHT**
*Still under the influence of opium, Mira stumbled into her husband's laboratory. How she'd found it wasn't clear- but the most likely explanation was that she'd always suspected something, and the drugs had cast away her denial.*

*Some indeterminate amount of time later, he made his way back. He had the deal with Dracula, and he had to start it at least before going to search for his missing wife.
He did not expect to see her in the lab.
He froze in place, staring in disbelief*
"Mira...?"

*The drugged woman said nothing, but leaned against the wall beside him, placing her hand on his arm*

*He placed a hand over hers, a bit hesistantly. He couldn't tell from the odd look on her face if she was angry with him*
"I know I owe you an explanation, and you would be well within your rights to be angry with me for running off..."

*She leaned her head against his shoulder, a slight smile on her face*
