[Oh. Oh, no. This smile. What did you just say to him, Kara?] You think I'm the sweetest boyfriend ever?

[takingkarabusiness]

I think it's scientifically supported at this point.

[spacebro]

[Yep, more smiling.] Well, if I am it's only because I learned it from the best girlfriend.

[takingkarabusiness]

I'm so glad no one's here to make gagging noises about how mushy we're being, because I think it's the perfect amount of mushy.

[spacebro]

[Wrapping his arms around her to pull her closer.] I don't think there could be too much mushiness from you. [He's taking it all in and it's perfect except something about that perfection makes him think of his conversation with Winn about the things he should be trusting her with. The things he wants to hide in the deepest part of him and never take out and look at again. He should be honest. He should say something.

Instead, leans in to kiss her.]

[takingkarabusiness]

[ having no idea of his inner conflict, she kisses back, intimately and affectionately ]

We're never going to make it to dinner.

[spacebro]

I can think of worse things. [Though he may be taking his life in his hands expecting the same of Kara. Touching her gently, wanting to take this all in in case... Just in case.]

[takingkarabusiness]

I mean, yes.

...But also I'm hungry. I wonder if any of the places around here do room service...

[spacebro]

Let's find out. If they don't I can pick something up and then super speed my way back.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ kisses again ]

The most romantic words.

[spacebro]

I'm really on a roll tonight. You haven't had anything to drink, right? [Almost suspicious at the nice, not because Kara isn't nice but because maybe there was a monster in his life growing up who wired him for a different kind of expectation of love.]

[takingkarabusiness]

No? Am I acting weird?

[spacebro]

No. It's just [thoughtful pause.] more than I deserve.

[takingkarabusiness]

Of course you deserve it. Why wouldn't you deserve it?

[spacebro]

[The words are so close, but he can't. So he just laughs it off instead.] I'm not as brave as you. [Definitely feeling like a coward in this moment but what else is new?]

[takingkarabusiness]

[ she scoffs and bumps his shoulder with her fist ]

Don't say things like that. You're plenty brave.

[spacebro]

[Remember when you dated guys that would have broken?]

I'm working on it. [Another kiss, softer this time.]

So, maybe something with potatoes and mushrooms for dinner? [He's kidding. What else would it be?]

[takingkarabusiness]

The things I would do for a strawberry at this point...

Let's go find a room.

[spacebro]

[If only he could just make strawberries appear.] I am keeping that in mind in cases we get to somewhere with strawberries.

Yes, please. [A room sounds good to him so he walks with her toward where they have housing on this asteroid.]

[takingkarabusiness]

My one weakness.

Okay, that's demonstrably not true, but you get my meeting.

[ it's probably not too far of a walk, especially for them ]

[spacebro]

[And he doesn't mind the walk since it's a good time to have his arm around her in public. He does offer the money for the room when they get to one and finds out they do have room service!]

So, should we just order one of everything? [Walking with her to the door of their room.]

[takingkarabusiness]

Yes, definitely.

Maybe in a little bit, though...

[ she does the thing with the kissing and the opening the door behind her ]

[spacebro]

I like your priorities. [He could say more or he could shut up and kiss her. Guess which one he chooses.]

[takingkarabusiness]

[ Kissing? Lots of kissing? And other things probably definitely ]

[spacebro]

[So much definitely! Once she gets the door unlatched he's going to lift her up and carry her through. You know, without breaking the kiss because why would you?]
