Welcome to my one-year anniversary. [Pause as she realizes maybe she should clarify that. Not a relationship thing.] Of being with the Fleet. Feels like it should come with a badge of some kind. Who hands those out? We're in a special club now, right? Secret handshake? Extra meal portions?

Anyway, I figured it was maybe time to try something different. So... Raise your hand if you'd be interested in attending a dance class if I taught one. And by raise your hand I mean call me back. I don't have surveillance set up in all the rooms yet. [She's kidding. She's probably kidding.] If anyone is in I'll set up a room for it on the Iskaulit. [Or maybe find the secret studio the previous Natasha had.]

[Kitty is poking around some of the empty spaces on the Iskaulit, but she might pop into some of the more established establishments too while she's there.]

[ the version of agent schott he built up in his head saves the world from a desk; he has no interest in putting himself in harm's way, he's had enough of that to last a lifetime here, he just wants to help others.

that nickname earns her a smile and a kiss to the top of her head. ]

Hotter than ever. [ agent schott sounds a hell of a lot sexier than wit, the it guy, don't even pretend it doesn't. ]

I thought of that name earlier and I've been waiting for my moment to use it. [She moves in on his lips for another kiss.] I love you.

Nice choice of moment. [ he smiles. ] Love you too.

Good. I'm going to use it soooo much. [Ruffling his hair fondly and then strokes it.] I didn't realize how much you wanted to work at the DEO.

I didn't realize it either.

[ he thought of it as a possibility, but he didn't realize how badly he wanted it - or anything else that made a difference in the world - until kara told him he went for it, he got it. ]

It made you light up. [And even though it made her nervous that was good to see.] Do you know what you do with them?

[ he shrugs ]

Probably the same thing I do for Kara on a larger scale. I've helped them before, they have the best tech, Kitty - [ longinly. ]

Yeah? So tech things? [Look at her visibly relax and her smile brightens.] Sexy tech? Like entire walls full of it?

..did you think I'm a field agent?

[ that's kinda flattering. but no thank you. ]

Yes? Okay, I was a little worried about you. I mean, I believe in you and anything you set your mind on, but I needed time to process the new, dangerous job. Not that I would begrudge you a new, dangerous job especially if that's what you...I'm babbling. Help.

[ he helps by kissing her. when they part, he's smiling. ]

Thank you for believing I could do that. And for worrying about me.

[Kissing is the best reset a girl could ask for.] Of course I do. [Both things.] You're my Hot Schott. [Sneaking around for a little earlobe nibble.]

[ he smiles and runs his fingers through her hair. ]

Even from behind a desk?

Absolutely. You know I like picturing you in all kinds of positions. [Smirking.] But seriously, yes. I love you and a giant radius around you where you can grow and change and I'll still love. Or stay exactly who you are and I'll love that too.

[ affectionate eye roll at that innuendo. but he keeps smiling, and softens as she continues. ]

I want to make you proud. [ my boyfriend the it guy, it just doesn't sound very braggable. ]

You always have. [She's never seen him as just an IT guy and even then...there is something almost fantastical about that life too. A little bit of normalcy while still making a living working with computers? Even if mutants and Apocalypse had never been a thing back home she may have reached further than that, but it doesn't sound awful. Oh, she'd get bored, but she doesn't have to think about those kinds of realities when thinking of a life she'll never lead.]

And I'm really happy for you. Beyond deserved.

[ take it from someone who's lived it - it's boring. yeah, it was relaxed and easy; he got to leave his desk to help kara with no consequences, and even play video games at work. but it's also mind numbing, he was never going to learn and evolve there, there was no room for personal growth, not really, and he was never going to matter. the kind of work he did at catco, countless people can do, he won't be missed. the kind of work he can do in the deo?

he can be essential there. ]

Thanks. Um, I'm sure you wanna go see Kara - [ that's enough celebrating a glory he hasn't experienced yet, what if he's not actually as good or important there as he thinks? what if those memory downloads are false? ]

Sure. [Nuzzling and then taking his hand.] So, what'd you get me for my anniversary? [So completely kidding.]

Do you take IOUs? [ kissing her cheek, he's been swamped. ]

Absolutely not. I'm still swimming in holiday and second birthday gifts. Happy Winn is my favorite thing anyway.

I'm partial to him myself.

Followed closely by helps me make a dance floor Winn.

I'll give you two for one, how's that?

There's also getting more noticeably defined from working out Winn. [Brushing a hand down his side. She noticed.]

[ he grins at that, he doesn't really get to show that off much, but damn is he happy about it. he's been waiting for her to say something. ]

Don't thank Jim, the last thing he needs is encouragement.
