Who: Winn Schott + you = awesome
Broadcast: yup!
Action: Tourist!
When: now!
[ the feed opens with a profile view of a sleeping winn. on his face, you can see an elaborate sharpie painted mustache (courtesy of opal) and from the ceiling right above him hangs a plastic flamingo in a coat and plastic sunglasses (courtesy of cisco).
to anyone who's been by to see him lately, it's a very familiar scene. but seconds into it something that hasn't happened in about two weeks begins to take place - movement. with a soft groan, winn reaches a sluggish hand to his face, shielding his eyes from the light. the hand then seems to decide that scratching above his upper lip is better use of its time and skills. slowly, his eyes blink open, struggling to adjust, to focus.
and then they do. on that flamingo.
he yelps, jumping up in bed, tearing the flamingo off its strings and throws it across the room, where he proceeds to stare at an off frame army of (four) flamingos. rubbing at his temples he mutters just loudly enough to be captured on film ] So Cisco's still here...
[ that seems to remind him of something, and with a sharp move his still sleepy mind can't seem to properly cope with, grabs at the communicator and misses. next attempt brings it into his hand and you finally get a close up of that glorious mustache.
he frowns into the camera ]
Of course it's rolling... [ his voice is raw, lips chapped, and he clears his throat in an attempt to bring back his usual volume ] Hi - Fleeters - if we're still calling ourselves that - Winn Schott here, back to the world of the conscious - if you recognize me check in and tell me how long I've been out - Kitty - you better still be here. [ because unless you call him within the next 10 seconds he's calling you as soon as he cuts this feed and if you're not there he will freak. he rubs at his painted mustache again, not quite realizing what's bothering him, and with a small tired smile fumbles to shut the broadcast off. ]

Thank you. I trust yours. [She does. Though...she does know him to be more reluctant to share himself with her. Still, he's had another year. That may not even be the case anymore. And she believes he shares what he feels he can. A little boundary pushing can be good, but she doesn't want to push him away either.]
...I've told you about Nathan, haven't I?
action
[ he nods ]
At the carnival on planet Touchy Feely. [ he remembers it vividly because he had a direct link to her thoughts and feelings then. how would that feel, now? would it help them, or make things worse? ]
action
...Not that he's a situation.

That's...not awkward at all. [ he feels bad for the guy, he does. he really needs to find someone else. ]

[ it's okay, he's werid too, he accepts it. ]

Okay, she hasn't. She could, but she hasn't.]
There is nothing weird about loving the sweetest, cutest, smartest guy I know.

Awww - [ he leans in for a kiss ]

Oh yeah - guess who totally the world series?
action
Uh, wait, seriously? The Cubbies won? [Hey, she's a fan, but she's a realist.]

[ shrug. ]
They totally did.
