[winn]

Good, that's a weird thing to apologize about, so it would make you weird, and weird weird-lover is just well...weird.

[passingthrough]

[Winn Schott—one part unstoppably adorable and one part living distraction from whatever it is he's not ready or willing to discuss. She recognizes this and lets him off the hook for now, focusing only on the adorable. It sounded like he might be more receptive in private later.]

We wouldn't want that. Terrible fate. So, instead, I will let you know that It tried phasing through into the rest of the ship and could not. [Mystery.]

[winn]

[ he's learned to share with her, that doesn't mean he's ready to share with the rest of the fleet.

he nods. ]

I figured as much. Nothing's really working. [ here, he would say that even if it were a lie, why alert the atroma to an ace in their deck? but it's unfortunately true. it makes him believe all the more that this is all going on in their heads, somehow. their defenses are too perfect.

nothing is perfect. ]

[passingthrough]

[That, she can appreciate.]

Except the food. That is really working for me. Have you played any of the games?

[winn]

Not yet I got - distracted by pizza.

[ which no sane person can fault him for!!! and also he doesn't want to take home any prizes because he doesn't trust them. ]

[passingthrough]

It is very distracting. Makes you wonder how they even got all the ingredients for all of this and who is preparing it. [The sort of questions so easily solved back at the prison with "virtual reality". It does make her feel uncomfortable. But she's still here with Winn enjoying the food so it's not all bad. Can't be.]

[winn]

I know this one - what is something we have no way of answering.

[ he's calling virtual reality. really, all the signs keep pointing to it, the simplest solution, right? ]

[passingthrough]

[She's not sure if him thinking it too makes her feel better or worse. After all, she has every reason to be suspicious and even paranoid about it considering where she's been. So, him validating that either means she might be on to something which is a little disheartening while also gratifying. Or it means she might have contributed to making him paranoid and leading him down the wrong path.]

Jeopardy? The show, not the risk. [Hopefully.]

[winn]

[ it was one of his first thoughts, the last thing he went through back home was kara being trapped in a way too realistic fantasy, and he's a paranoid genius. this one is not on her. ]

That is correct, what did you risk?

[passingthrough]

[That's something at least. Not that she'd stop blaming herself completely.]

Um...500? I don't remember how it works. Is that an answer?

[winn]

[ they never do.

he smiles. ]

Yeah, I could give you 500 credits - or - [ wiggling his eyebrows suggestively. ]

[passingthrough]

Ooooor what's behind door number 2? [Is that the same game show? Does it matter?]

[winn]

[ it really doesn't. ]

It's a mystery door, you gotta pick it to find out.

[passingthrough]

Mmm...Well, I do love credits. [They mean nothing to her and she has plenty.] I pick the door. Door me.

[winn]

[ he's in the exact same position - plenty of credits, most of them earned in way too disturbing a fashion for him to get attached. ]

You have won a - [ reaching for the table, he picks up a dessert he can't quite identify ] this and - a magic 8 ball.

[passingthrough]

Yeah? How am I getting a magic 8 ball? [How did she get the cutest boy in the whole fleet?]

[winn]

Well, you have two options - pick up or delivery.

[ she was the first person to talk to him. ]

[passingthrough]

[He was easy pickings! Just how she likes 'em.] Mmm, can we roleplay delivery boy things? [She's kidding. She's never shown interest in roleplaying.]

[winn]

Sure, but a uniform's gonna take a little while.

[ just keep in mind that his acting skills are. they're terrible. ]

[passingthrough]

Of course you'd make a uniform for it. [She leans in to kiss him fondly.]

[winn]

[ he returns the kiss and smiles when they part. ]

Well, I'd rent one but the nearest costume shop is ehh -- not near enough, and those things are always unnecessarily expensive.

[passingthrough]

Mm, that definitely sounds too far. This is best. I am just going to to unwrap it when you deliver the package anyway though. [Eyes glinting. Should she feel worse about saying these things in pubic even in a low voice? Probably. But she does not.]

[winn]

[ she gets a little blush at that, and his voice drops even further in volume. ]

So include a tie, got it.

[passingthrough]

[Getting a blush from Winn is so much better than winning Jeopardy. It makes her whole body happy and not only in naughty ways.] Always include the tie. [The better for her to tug on.]

[winn]

[ she wins that easily, even after all this time. ]

Can do.

[ guess he's making a bunch of ties now! ]
