[Closed] Met her as the angels parted for her but she only brought me torture-

Who: shate Shiro & Kate
Broadcast: No
Action: From the Blameless to The Melting Pot
When: Beginning of December

[Well. That happened.

Friends have been rescued, people have been helped, bad guys have been beaten - good! Ship has been repaired, food has been restocked - extra good. Saving the universe is great and all, but Shiro couldn't be happier to leave this quiznaking planet behind and never think about it again.

Easier said than done, of course. All the fighting (the killing, the channeling of the damn ring combats) hasn't left him in a good state of mind. Not that it was good before, but you know. Got a bit worse now, sleeping is coming a little less and the visits to the punching bag at space 4am are increasing a little more.

There's one thing he's grateful for, though, one thing that helps him stay grounded, and that's going back to his routine with Kate. They had that heartbreaking conversation exactly before they arrived to the cannibal planet and he never had time to process it. But here they are now, doing their usual morning yoga, and Shiro thinks they've reached a comfortable silence, not an awkward one.

It could also be the fact they're too concentrated on not slipping on the new floors (thanks, Atroma, what a pal) while exercising, but he likes his own reasoning better, thank you. In fact, when they're done, Shiro's mood has improved a bit. Enough to dare to make a simple and maybe dumb (but still meaningful for him) question.]


It's been a while since we had breakfast, hasn't it? [Technically they still do, but he's sure she'll understand what he means. He just doesn't want to say "just the two of us" after that conversation.] How about you take a break from cooking today and we go to the Iskaulit? My treat.
