AS usual, another busy weekend in this City. The visits were alright. Nice in a few cases, and crappy in others. Nothing new there, I guess.

Euphie? Have you had anyone look at your hand since I cleaned it up? I think your sister would come back here and kill me if I let it get infected or anything...

[She has her moments of evasiveness, but she has fewer secrets here than she once did. She'd tell you almost anything with a little coaxing.]

She was hoping for a more direct answer than that. She peeks back up at him with hopeful eyes.] Yes?

[action]

[He's smiling, faintly, down at her, looking a little nervous.]

... do you want to be?

[action]

[deadly_legacy]

[Smiles back at him, because sometimes he asks very silly questions.] Of course I do.

[action]

[Don't most men? He raises his hand to cup her cheek]

... are you sure? I'm not an easy person to get along with sometimes.

[action]

[deadly_legacy]

[Apparently. You've met Cornelia, and you think she worries about being close to people who can be hard to get along with?

And she feels those butterflies again at the touch, but she's still sure of her answer.]

I am.

Do you want to be my boyfriend, Ken? [Watching him.]

[action]

[Look, he's blushing a little again. It's all your fault, Euphie.]

Yeah. I do, even if I kinda suck at whole boyfriend thing.

[action]

[deadly_legacy]

I'll be the judge of that. [She will accept the blame for this. You can tell she regrets it a lot by the way she brightens considerably and moves in for a kiss.]

[action]

[bladed-siberian.livejournal.com]

[There's a chuckle from Ken before he bends lower to brush a gentle kiss across her lips]

[action]

[deadly_legacy]

[She will enjoy that kiss before giving you a slightly more eager one. She's just very, very happy right now.]

[action]

[bladed-siberian.livejournal.com]

[Another surprise for Ken, but he kisses her back, eager, but still keeping it gentle.]

[action]

[deadly_legacy]

[Gentle is fine by her and when the kiss breaks she snuggles in closer. Smiling against him.] I have a boyfriend.

[action]

[bladed-siberian.livejournal.com]

[Tucks her in close to his chest, loosely hugging her]

Yep, you do.

[action]

[deadly_legacy]

It is better to talk about these things. [Haaaaaaaaaaappy.] Umi's a little protective of you, isn't she?

[action]

[bladed-siberian.livejournal.com]

[That just makes Ken chuckle again]

That's putting it mildly. She's... family to me. We've been through a lot.

[action]

[deadly_legacy]

I'm glad. You need some protection I think. [Teasing a little, but she is glad.]

I like Umi. I like her more when she isn't talking about hurting my sister though. [Playing with Ken's hand a little. Just touching him. Exploring lightly.]

[action]

[bladed-siberian.livejournal.com]

[He turns his hand over, letting her touch as she wants. There's not hesitation about the scars on his palm.]

She's a handful, isn't she?

[action]

[deadly_legacy]

[Runs the tip of her finger over one carefully.] She's a little surprising at times.

I hope Cornelia wasn't too hostile though. She's very protective too. And after... Well, I haven't seen her since I was home except for this weekend.

[action]

[bladed-siberian.livejournal.com]

[His fingers absently flex at the touch, showing how well sensitive his hands are.]

I don't think she cares much for me. Seems like she doesn't care much for anyone that doesn't fit her ideals, though.

[action]

[deadly_legacy]

She's... Not very trusting. [She presses her smaller palm against his.] I'll just have to like you twice as much to make up for it.

[action]

[bladed-siberian.livejournal.com]

[His fingers curled up between hers]

It's obvious how much she cares about you.

[action]

[deadly_legacy]

She's always taken care of me. It's so strange not having her here even if I know it would make some things harder.

[action]

[bladed-siberian.livejournal.com]

Well.. I think she pretty much ordered me to do that since she's not able to be here. At least, that's how I took it.

[action]

[deadly_legacy]

[Giggles a little] She's used to giving orders.

And if she said something like that to you then it can't be too bad or she wouldn't have wanted you near me at all.

[action]

[bladed-siberian.livejournal.com]

[Smiles faintly]

Oh, I think that was her plan, but in the end, she saw it my way.

[action]

[deadly_legacy]

You must have been very convincing. [Kisses his cheek in thanks.]
