February Windrose mingle

[passingthrough]

Who: Windrose crew and the people who visit them
Broadcast: N/A
Action: Windrose
When: February

[Busy month for the Windrose. They set off a string of glitches by tinkering with found tech. They've lost another captain with Wrath's disappearance though Officer Snuggles remained behind. Misty transferred and Kitty was promoted and that's just the first half of the month. Some of these things aren't official until tomorrow's shuffle.

More importantly, who is going to turn everything pink and glittery for Valentine's Day with Wrath gone?]

[ he grumbles at having to move away from her, but he does as he's asked and takes a peek. unfortunately, chocolate's not all he sees.

he turns back to her, nuzzling her neck to distract himself. ]

Big bed saves lives.

I love big bed. I should have shoved Vision out when I moved in. Guy didn't even sleep. [She loves and misses Vision but she definitely should have stolen his room. So much to regret in her post coital glow.]

[winn]

I bet he'd give it to you, too.

[ it would be logical, to hand the large room over to a couple over a single who never sleeps. sounds like the kind of thing he would agree with.

he misses him too. he was weird, but it was winn's brand of weird. ]

[passingthrough]

He probably would have. [But she was new back then and even though she just dismissively said he doesn't sleep anyway, she wouldn't want to ever make him feel less deserving of his space just because he was different. There's also the part where she was on the Windrose less than half of the time.

She nuzzles in closer.] You smell good.

[winn]

[ his fingers play with her hair absentmindedly. ]

So do you.

[passingthrough]

[The fingers in her hair feel soooo good.] Think you can get Kirk to give up his room?

[winn]

Not a chance.

[ he doesn't sound broken up about it. he'll live in a tin can if it means keeping jim around. ]

[passingthrough]

We could just switch all your stuff one day and see if he notices.

[winn]

No way, the risk of my stuff going out an airlock is too real.

[passingthrough]

Okay, okay, but this is the best bed. [She nuzzles up against him, so comfortable.]

[winn]

[ he kisses the top of her head ]

I love you, I love this bed, I'm not moving.

[passingthrough]

It's like we had a threesome. [Laughing lightly.] Definitely not something I ever saw us doing.

[winn]

For the record, big bed's the only threesome I'm game for.

[ what, after the surprise he found in her locker it feels like he should be clear about things like that. ]

[passingthrough]

Duly noted and agreed. I'm more into full on orgies anyway.

[winn]

I can make do with just the bed.

[passingthrough]

Heeeeey. [Kissing.] You're stuck with me. Don't do anything weird with my bed without me.

[winn]

Couldn't if I tried, you bring the weird.

[passingthrough]

We all have our jobs. [Kissing again and then she just smiles, looking at him and knowing she should probably push a little even if it will mean less of this for a bit.]

So, before you distracted me with mind blowing sex...I think were inadvertently admitting to having some concerns with your identity.

[winn]

[ he flops back in bed, his hand falling out of her hair with frustrated grumble. ]

I'm in love with you, what does it matter? [ he's not going to do anything about it, so why put himself through this? ]

[passingthrough]

Because I know how hard it is having a part of yourself you want to deny. Something that scares you or you resent, but it's still always with you even if you're trying to ignore it. [She switches with him, stroking his hair instead.] I love you, and I don't want that for you. I don't really want it for anyone.

[winn]

Kitty it's not exactly a mutant power I don't need to learn to control it and I can't make anyone's life any better with it.

[ it feels like all that could come of doing what she's asking him to is pain, fear, and worry. doesn't he have enough of those in his life? ]

[passingthrough]

I didn't need to accept my mutant power so I could control it. I mean...that was also important, but my point is I needed to do it so I could accept myself. I hated myself. I was afraid I was a monster.

I know it's not a one to one comparison and believe me I'm not asking you to ask out cute boys. You're mine. [Which she says in a loving way, not a possessive one.]

I just want you to be able to feel comfortable as yourself. Your whole self.

[winn]

I know I'm not a monster.

[ but the way he stiffens at ask out cute boys reveals just how right she is. he's not comfortable with himself, not even close. ]

[passingthrough]

How do you feel? [Hoping for a real answer here. Not another brush off.]

[winn]

Honestly? Annoyed.

[ he doesn't want to deal with this. the only thing keeping him still in bed is that fact that he knows kitty will overreact if he got up and left. he doesn't want to hurt her, but he doesn't want to be here right now, either. ]
