Who: Winn and you!
Broadcast: y!
Action: on the Tourist!
When: August 2nd

[ some of you may have noticed that winn has been uncharacteristically quiet for the past...16 days. he's not really sure how to address the elephant in the room - he knows these two weeks and change have been hard on the people he loves but for him it's like no time has passed and the dissonance is hard to bridge.

it's a good thing he has a not at all unhealthy coping mechanism set in place. ]

You know, if we're entertainment on a reality show, the least they can do is give us like a recap - you know your basic [ in a tv announcer impression ] here's what you missed on the Fleet - or - last week, on the young and the Drifting - [ he rubs the back of his head before shaking it ] Well, maybe talking about the 'least they can do' isn't such a great plan...first order of business - what'd I miss? Second order of business - if you or anyone you know has ever fallen into an unexplained sleep here or at any other kidnappy world - I'd appreciate it if you'd answer a couple questions, they're a text attachment at the bottom. Sorry if it's been done before, I'll gladly take a link to any previous research as well as fresh data. Third order of business -- hi. [ he gives the camera a little wave and a nervous chuckle ] Um. Yeah, I'm, I'm fine, I should've opened with that but if you know me the order isn't really gonna surprise you that much and if you don't you're probably really confused right now and looking for the off button - it's to your right, right on top, there you go.

That's it, I guess....good morning, Drifters - don't forget to drink your coffee! Winn out -

<br />1. <b>date and duration of sleep</b>: self explanatory.<br />2. <b>surrounding events</b>: when it happened were you or your sleeping acquaintance going about your daily lives, experimenting with anything, uncovering anything?<br />3. <b>results</b>: did waking result in new memories, loss of old ones, a change in personality or attitude, were you or your sleeping acquaintance at a different physical location (ex: new planet, back at your ship, new kidnappy world), were there any physical differences or after effects, if so how long did they last, anything you can think of that changed - put it here.<br />

[ except he's not all the way out. hank and cisco each get the following message to their personal numbers ]

I need to discuss something in person. My place? [ he can't really leave kitty yet ]

Comments

Action

[winn]

[ true. ]

Did Jim put you up to this?

[ he quirks a brow because this is totally the time to joke and bring up other people, right? ]

They're loving the vote of confidence.

Action

[passingthrough]

Yes. Jim and I are constantly talking about your body. We can't be stopped. [Or they never have. It's one of those two.]

I can't fuss over you? [Giving him a faux pouty look.]

Action

[winn]

I see no logical faults with that statement and believe it fully.

[ nod. hey, they both have an interest in his body. it's just a very different sort of interest. his smile softens and he leans in for a soft kiss. ]

Sorry, of course you can. Resume your fussing. I'm okay - just a little weak, but it's not gonna get better if I don't work at it, right?

Re: Action

[passingthrough]

Of course you do. [Kissing back warmly.]

Mmm, in that case, you should really be on top. [This questioning was never going to end in her not wanting to move forward. Promise.] Is it creepy if I say I can work you harder than Jim?

Action

[winn]

[ a shuddering breath goes through him. ]

Jim who?

[ that was really hot, he leans in for another deep kiss. ]

Action

[passingthrough]

[See? She can always bring it back around. She kisses back enthusiastically and then rolls them so he can be on top as promised.]

Action

[winn]

[ it's not exactly difficult for them to end up here. he's always afraid of what might happen if - or, when - they start cooling off physically.

he pushes his body as far as it can go, but he still relies more heavily on her than usual. when they're done, he runs his fingers absentmindedly through her hair, wishing he were connected to her feelings again, wishing he could know and at the same time glad he can't know if he disappointed her. 17 days is an eternity for them, maybe that helped cover up for his state. ]

Action

[passingthrough]

[She is young and full of energy. What makes you think you'll live long enough for her to cool off? But mostly, she loves him for more than his abilities in bed, so don't worry about silly things.

She's pressed against him and practically glowing.] That felt so good. [The longest 17 days ever. Did they even go 17 days of knowing each other before they were doing this?]

Action

[winn]

[ if that'll never happen, it'll only bring him joy. ]

Mmhm...a raving review.

[ he smiles, nuzzling the side of her face. ]

Would you like to fill out a survey?

[ well yes, but they weren't talking or seeing each other regularly for most of them so that may not count. ]

Action

[passingthrough]

[She laughs against him.] This is an excellent technique but it might slow you down if you do it with everyone.

But I would love to fill out a survey. Please survey me.

Action

[winn]

I only use it on my favorite girlfriend.

[ chuckling and kissing her cheek ]

On a scale of 1 to 10 - 1 being 'eww get off me' and 10 being [ moaning exaggeratedly ] how would you rate your overall experience with us today, keeping in mind your boyfriend has just woken up from a coma and has a very fragile ego.

Action

[passingthrough]

I love being your favorite girlfriend. Makes the others jealous. [Nuzzling. See how fun these jokes are when the person doesn't get jealous?]

Mmmmmm 15 and a half with a star. Next question.

Action

[winn]

[ extremely fun. he loves her confidence (and envies it). then again, if he were dating him he wouldn't get jealous either. ]

Wow a star - is it gold? [ he's positively giddy ] mmmhm - and if the aforementioned provisions didn't apply?

Action

[passingthrough]

[That isn't why she isn't jealous! How dare you, sir?]

Of course it's gold. [Soft kiss.] Same answer. What else you got?

Action

[winn]

[ have you met him? he always dares. ]

What would improve your experience, you know, besides a fully functioning partner -

Action

[passingthrough]

[She traces her fingers over his shoulder.] Knowing I make you feel so loved and secure that you never have to worry. [Is she cheating? Maybe a little.]

Action

[winn]

Coward.

[ he laughs and kisses her, full of affection. ]

Action

[passingthrough]

[She laughs into the kiss.] I've been really happy with us. I mean, there are other things I could be into too, but I don't feel like anything is missing.

What about you?

Action

[winn]

Oh yeah, [ propping himself up on his elbow ] like what?

[ he shrugs a little ]

I'm still not over the I get to be with a woman that beautiful awe.

Action

[passingthrough]

Flatterer. [She smiles though. She knows he means it even if she doesn't see how he can be that enamored of her looks and not see his own.]

Weeeeell, we don't get a lot of chances to do things [Sex things!] anywhere but in bed and that could be fun sometimes. [They did start in a closet after all. Kind of a missed opportunity on the planet.]

Action

[winn]

My true name.

[ he does mean it wholeheartedly. she's stunning and to him - completely out of his league.

that wins her a raised brow and a strange sort of smile ]

Yeah? That could be fun - [ except they live in seriously close quarters on the ships, so while they're drifting through space it may be difficult to arrange. somewhere that isn't a bad - sure. in front of an audience? he's out. ]

Action

[passingthrough]

Yeah, I think it could be. Beds are pretty nice too though. Because this is just me being awesomely open with you because you asked a question. I am a very happy and satisfied girlfriend. [Kiss. Yes, she's a little worried he'll try and build them a place to have sex if left to his own devices and make it a project when it should just be a moment of passion that can't wait.]

Action

[winn]

[ for once he's not really thinking of making something into a project at all, because building a place for sex is kind of...creepy to him. ]

I love you being awesomely open with me. [ a lingering kiss to convey his appreciation. ]

Action

[passingthrough]

[That's something! This kiss is also something.] Mmm~

So, really nothing you've ever thought about? [Because now she's curious.]

Action

[winn]

I'm happy.

[ he fidgets a little though, because while he's sure kitty would have no problem with his preference - it's not exactly a revolutionary concept, even within their existing relationship - it's still embarrassing to say. ]

But if I'm really pressed - it could be fun if you run the show sometimes. [ he loves their equal footing and wouldn't give it up for the world. but he does have a thing for strong women. ]
