Comments

[winn]

[ he's in his chair, typing away with an almost psychotic fervor. to his right, a huge bottle of soda. to his left, a half finished pizza, and an assortment of snacks. wrapped around him are kitty's arms, and in his ears is kara, asking if he's got it yet. he's about to reply that he's almost there when james opens his mouth to speak and --

Kitty~~~~~~ I'm all better~!

...that doesn't sound like james.

he groans, frowning, trying to cling to the remnants of his dream; he's not ready to leave yet, everything was going so well - he almost had it! but what it is already slips out of his grasp. he turns reluctantly at kitty's question, fumbling for the clock. ]

...unreasonable o'clock. [ his voice comes out hoarse, heavy with sleep. it was such a nice dream, too. ]

[pneumo]

[ It is wake up and pay attention to him o'clock, thank you very much. And even if he doesn't receive a reply Sascha will keep babbling at the door, pressed flat against it with his face turned to one side and his arms stretched up along it. ]

All my old teeth fell out and my mouth feels waaay better~! Are you in there?? Kiiiiitty~ Meow!

[ ...yes, he does meow. Maybe this is just a dream too.

A noisy, horrible dream. ]

[passingthrough]

[There's a low, unhappy growl as Sascha's continued talking proves this isn't a dream for her. She reluctantly rolls out of bed.] Am I dressed?

[She doesn't actually wait for an answer, but she is. More or less. There's a long t-shirt that covers her her upper thighs. She walks over to the door, thrusts her hand through the door, grabs Sascha and pulls just his upper body through. Because fuck physics, that's why!]

What is wrong with you?

[winn]

[ he barely has time to push his head up on his elbow to check if she is - and hum his response - before there's half a guy through the door.

well that'll work to wake him up. he jumps up to a sitting position - and boy does he wish he woke up just a little faster and put on some pants but at least he has boxers on? - and holds up a soothing hand towards kitty ]

Hey -- cut him some slack. Pull him all the way in? [ he feels bad for the kid, if it were him, he'd be having a heart attack about now. the lesson would be driven home loud and clear -- but he'd be too busy dying to really learn it. ]

[pneumo]

[ Well it's definitely startling for him considering he'd asked Kitty not to phase him through objects after her warning about getting stuck, so when it happens unexpectedly he at first thinks the door must've opened and he's fallen through, but Kitty's grabbing him and it's Kitty, she's awake! Awesome! and...oh. Hey, he can smell and hear someone else there too. Isn't that the guy who asked about France and Abe??

He'd say 'hi' but he's only just now looking down and noticing that half of him is sticking through a wall and his eyes go wide, automatically fumbling and trying to grab onto Kitty. Mostly as an anchor. ]

--No walls! [ He doesn't want to live in a wall for the rest of his life. ]

[passingthrough]

Nnnngh. [She hates you both. Or she hates morning. Or the middle of the night? Or not getting sleep? Something is hated okay? She jerks him the rest of the way in and lets go once he's free of it. She stays phased. The momentum might have him falling through her. She's not that concerned.]

[winn]

[ you can't hate the slinky maker, it's in the rule book.

winn looks away, practically hissing at the sight of him falling through his girlfriend (do remind him never to piss her off!) and busies himself with finding his pants. once he gets those on, he walks over to sascha and offers him a hand. ]

You ok?

[pneumo]

[ Yep, right through Kitty and onto the floor. Not actually surprising since that's how they first met way back when on the Marsiva, but it is a little disappointing considering she'd been staying solid around him the last while.

Falling does mean his sunglasses jostle some and nearly fall off his nose, but luckily the light has yet to be turned on so he can actually see fairly well, and blinks up at Winn as he lifts his chin. ]

Uh-huh... [ This is definitely the guy who was talking about school. Why is he in Kitty's room? ]

[passingthrough]

[Kitty reaches down as if she'll find cigarettes but she hasn't smoked in a month and she doesn't even have pockets on the t-shirt. There's another growling sound because words are hard. Is it clear yet that she spent some of her formative years with Logan?]

Why are you here? [More annoyed with a touch of whiny than actually angry.]

[winn]

[ kitty's annoyance works to soothe winn's, and he instinctively takes on the role of mediator. he gives her what's meant to be a soothing look - they can sleep in tomorrow it's not like either of them has a job to get to - and tries to help sascha up. ]

Is something wrong? [ seems like one of those dumb but necessary questions to get things going in the right direction again - he woke them up in the middle of the night something has to be wrong. ]

[pneumo]

[ ...........................WELL, I MEAN.... ]

...My mouth's all fixed! [ His teeth. The thing. Teething, he's done he means, sitting back on his knees once Winn's helped him up and letting go so that he can catch the corner of his mouth and pull it back to show off his gorgeous, pearly whites that are...about three times longer than they've ever been before, actually. Most of the time they stay up in his gum waiting to be released into unsuspecting prey, but with their fresh arrival they've yet to settle and sink appropriately so he has these instead of his normally-small ones. ]

So we can do dance lessons again~

[ Has he ever mentioned he's nocturnal-- ]

[passingthrough]

[Totally nonplussed by the giant teeth.] That's super-terrific. I'm going back to sleep. [That's not really going to happen is it? Also with the tiny, almost non existent amount of room in this bedroom—when is that upgrade coming through?—she will just phase through anyone or anything in her way until she's on the cot again, smashing her face into a pillow.

Sorry, Winn. This is grumpy Kitty. It was probably time to see her for yourself.]

[winn]

[ did they somehow fast forward so far in their relationship they now have an annoying 5 year old? because that is officially too fast.

he gives sascha an incredulous look - nope, kid just lost all his sympathy with that excuse and what even are those teeth? either he needs so much more sleep, or he's been asking all the wrong questions.

rubbing his eyes tiredly, he heads for the door, opening it and nodding towards it. ]

Great, come back when the hour part of the clock has double digits.

[pneumo]

[ 03 is totally a double digit okay.

But for what it's worth the comment does make Sascha take a moment to assess the situation he's actually intruded upon, and rather than his face lighting with sudden understanding of embarrassment, it's sudden understanding and excitement. ]

--Ohhhh! You guys were asleep, wow I totally forgot about that haha! [ Silly humans and their doing that at night. ]

[passingthrough]

[Should she have mentioned she accidentally adopted an over century old vampire? It's your turn to keep him from fussing, Dad.]

Non-vampires sleep at night, Sascha. You know that. [Yay, Winn is on her side. It won't matter, will it? Two against one and he's still going to be victorious.]</small.

[winn]

[ first of all - what did he bracket you about calling him dad? second - yes that's absolutely something that should have been mentioned! he signed up for hot girlfriend not teething vampire...

vampire? wait seriously? he looks from kitty, in her spot on the bed, back to sascha.

they gotta be kidding him. he just had this talk with kara - holy shit he can't wait to tell kara that vampires actually are a thing and she gave him that winn you're being ridiculous look! WHO'S BEING RIDICULOUS NOW! if banshees are a thing there's no reason for vampires to not be a thing! or werewolves! or zombies! maybe pizza guy isn't high after all!

...ok he's wide awake now, dammit. ]

You're a vampire? Like -- blood-sucky bat-shapeshifting burn-in-the-sun allergic-to-garlic vampire?

[ he'd be afraid but, you know...look at him. plus, kitty seems completely chill. ]

[pneumo]

[ Kitty doesn't even look conscious, so it's safe to assume you're good for now Winn. If he he's the munchies he has a rubber ball in his jacket pocket prime for chewing. ]

...Some of those! [ Like two of them, tops. ]

I drink blood. [ Okay so maybe just one of those. ]

[passingthrough]

[Dress for the job you want? In this case the job she wants is sleeping, but she's not actually getting it. There's a sigh to prove it.] Why are you asking him questions? The door thing was such a good thing... [She just sounds defeated at his point.

Also, boyfriend, you should ask your girl about these things. She used to have a zombie roommate and she's known a werewolf not even counting Bigby who is...like a werewolf but not?]

[winn]

[ does that mean the job winn wants is 'cardigan model'? is that why he's always noticing how good looking other guys are? professional envy? this explains everything!

sorry, kitty, but you knew who you were getting in bed with. ]

Because -- he's a vampire -- [ the tone of his voice is unreasonably excited for this time of night. now that he knows that's she's acquainted with one - he'll absolutely start asking his girlfriend about all the supernatural creatures. once she's less cranky, that is.

ok - he wants to ask a million questions now. his eyes dart between kitty, sascha, and the door. ]

...you got a room too, right? [ there's that brain kicking back into gear! ]

[pneumo]

[ You know, Winn is probably the first and only person who's ever been excited to know he's a vampire. This is a big first for him, and he actually blinks at the excitement before he figures out an answer. ]

...I have an office? [ He has honestly wen looked to see I he has a room on the Bloodsport. He's more than happy to just share with Bigby. ]

[passingthrough]

[IT expert and cardigan model boyfriends are the best worst. She is proud of him for not being scared of the vampire thing though.]

It's not on this ship. [Slightly mumbled and then she sits up, pulling the covers up around herself.] Fine, I'm up. [She doesn't want Winn going anywhere. At least not off ship.] Come here so I can lean on you. [Winn. She's talking to Winn. Should she have made that clear?]

[winn]

[ clearly you haven't met enough nerds, sascha.

closing the door again, he hops onto the bed, settles himself at kitty's side, and pats his shoulder with an eager smile. ]

At your service~ [ is he cute again yet or still annoying? ]

[pneumo]

[ Yeahhh...yeah, she probably should have specified. Because while Winn goes to one side? Sascha takes the other happily with a bright expression. He knew you liked him mom!

He's going to climb up and onto the edge of the bed. ]

[passingthrough]

[Winn is cute again. Sascha on the other hand... She sighs at the vampire, but doesn't kick him off her bed. It is a tiny room and there's no where else to sit but the floor anyway. She just tips her head onto Winn's shoulder.] Okay, proceed with your nonsense.

[winn]

[ he wraps an arm around her and strokes her hair, trying to appease her even as he has every intention to proceed with his nonsense because vampire, kitty!! ]

So what do you do here, are there like, synthetic blood shakes? Or is it a donor system?
