Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I should probably head hack to the Windrose, [directing it to Winn] but I can walk you back to the office. There could be bandits. [There should be goodbye kisses and this crowd can't handle that.]

Kara. Hank. [Nodding because that feels least weird right now?]

[ no idea, don't look at him, let's all pretend he didn't say that, ok? ok. ]

Anytime. [ humoring kara is what he does best! especially now that hacking definitely isn't it anymore. ]

Yeah, likewise. On -- both fronts.

[ turning back to kitty. ]

Space bandits are just out of my wheel house, you better come along. [ like he could handle regular bandits :'). ]

[ waves! and hangs back with Hank while the other two head off ]

[he gives a little wave as well, a brief grin at the bandits comment]

[She hasn't forgotten what he said and someday she will use it against him. She's just biding her time.]

Space bandits are the second worst kind of bandit you know. [She purposefully brushes her shoulder against his as they walk.]

[ step away from the dark side, kitty, those aren't real cookies they're offering! ]

Oh yeah? Who's the worst?

[ he looks over at her, because why do people look where they're going, anyway? ]

Oh, I only look up the second worst of things. I mean, anyone can know the absolute worst, but the second worst? That's where the good info is. Second worst flavor of popsicle is blue.

So what's the second worst thing not to know?

If you're related to the person you have a crush on.

-- yeah, that would suck.

[ he laughs, and crashes his shoulder into the wall as they make a turn. so that's why people look where they're going! he sucks in a quick breath and rubs his shoulder with his opposing hand. ]

...third worst thing not to know - how to avoid obstacles.

Aww, that sucks. [Said with just a bit of a laugh.] You should really try being intangible. [Little smile.] Are you okay?

I try, I'm just not very good at it.

[ he shrugs ]

It's not my sewing arm -- all is safe! [ it's embarrassing to admit that that hurt. ]

Good. The dress is my first priority. [She reaches out lightly putting her hand on his chest before leaning in to give him a soft kiss. Kisses make everything better, right? Also, right in the middle of the hallway!]

[ they sure do!

he returns the kiss just as softly. middle of the hallway and all - they've been walked in on enough for one day.

when they pull apart he's smiling again, even though the pain still pulses in his shoulder. ]

Changing my answer - third worst thing not to know - how not to avoid obstacles.

Let's not actually make this a habit. I'm sure I can come up with other reasons to kiss you. [She slides her hand into his.] Come on, I'll phase you back. No hitting anything.]

My hero.

[ HE COULDN'T HELP HIMSELF, OK! ]

Now I'm surprised the dress doesn't have a cape. [She glances over at him.] Don't make me a cape. I want you to able to sleep too.

Capes are lame. Unless you need to fly, in which case, they're pretty necessary. You don't -- fly, do you?

[ just going to casually ignore that comment about sleep ]

Nope. I air walk. It's different since it's just like walking or climbing, but where I'm just walking on air molecules. I really just have the one power with different applications. Less of the Kryptonian buffet.

Then no capes. [ he nods ] Though -- maybe I should make some sort of wrap - [ he doesn't want them to get cold... ]

Hey, hey, I'm serious. You should get Winn time too. Don't wear yourself out. We can get coats if we need them. Unless you mean Saran wrap in which case you've gone to a strange and kinky place where I'm not sure I want to follow.

Been there, done that. [ he's had a lifetime of winn time ] Don't worry, I'll be rested enough to dance.

[ his expression softens though; her concern is sweet. and not something he's all too accustomed to. ]

And making saran wrap sounds like it'd be about as frustrating as using saran wrap. [ always sticks to itself instead of what it's supposed to. ] I'll pass.

[Oh look, here is the door to Kara's office which she'll walk them through—serious about that phasing him to safety!] That's what I like to hear. I'm going to keep you up late.

Years of all-night gaming have prepared me for this. Time to prove everyone who told me I was wasting my time wrong!

[ will he ever stop being stupidly excited about walking through walls? probably not. enjoy the giddy smile. ]

I got this.
