[ interesting. wash is pleasantly surprised in the small movements pietro makes to actually help him, that slight subtle inching up the bed. part of him eager or at least curious, wanting to push himself further, wanting to see what's there. he's restless, though, and the apparent contradiction between what he's doing holds fascination for him. the wrist he's already binding to one of the bars of the headboard, that hand seems mostly settled, calm, as still as pietro tends to be without being literally unconscious as far as wash has seen, but the moment wash gave him the freedom of his other hand he's moving.
at first, wash thinks he's trying to get out -- but that other hand isn't moving, not trying to wiggle free, mostly trying to stay in place. he interprets pietro's movements then as just. fidgeting. like a restless child with too much energy except he moves so damn fast, willing that one hand to stay still but having to make up for it elsewhere. wash continues his work, managing to avoid pietro's interfering fingers as he finishes binding that one wrist in place, and then he's grabbing him by the forearm. doing what he can to actually still him, and making use of the knife tucked into his grip to get his attention, a sudden glide of metal along the length of his arm, one moment where the edge breaks the skin enough for it to sting the way pietro likes. ]
Restless, aren't you?
[ distantly amused, more teasing than mocking, voice still thrumming slightly with that same rumble, that almost-purr. his other hand is working with the remaining length of rope, as he shifts a bit more on the bed -- drags pietro's wrist to the other side of the headboard. this is good, strong rope, mostly cotton, but it definitely wouldn't be impossible or difficult to chew through if pietro really wanted to. but he'd still need to get the bindings to his mouth, bend his body enough to reach what he needs to undo. in wash's experience with pietro so far, he's strong, but not inhumanly so when he doesn't have the space to build up any kind of momentum. wash doesn't have that much on hand, but he does have some heavy duty cuffs that might be a lot stronger, but. he's choosing this. choosing rope. letting pietro think about escaping and how he might break free, just to see how much he can push him into not even wanting to.
though he is considering getting more specialized rope, now. a note to himself at the back of his mind. inspired by pietro, apparently. ]
