☠ 062

Who: Molotov and you, maybe
What: Fireside sitting in the lobby, thinking, talking, drinking
When: The middle of the damn night!
Where: Lobby
Rating: Ehhh probably like PG-13 at most

The lobby never really got silent, not with the noctural residents and everyone who seemed to come and go at all hours, but it did get quiet if you waited up late enough, and Molotov needed a little bit of quiet.

Sure, she could have stayed up in her room, could have sat in bed next to Brock as he slept, even though she couldn't sleep herself. But something about it made her want to leave, want to just be in front of the beautiful, if slightly "majestic generic", fireplace down in the lobby.

So she'd put on some pajamas and wandered downstairs, taking a seat on the sofa closest the fire. The castle provided a blanket to cover her legs with, and a mug of red wine hot chocolate that never seemed to need refilling, and Molotov couldn't help but think it was the nicest thing the castle had done in a while.

And there she sat, alone and silent, gazing into the flames as the lobby traffic died out more and more.

Until you came along.

He doesn't bring these issues up for the very reason of avoiding that kind of logic.

If he hasn't already made it clear by how many times he's tried to get rid of Ein... but most of that is for show, if anyone really looked into it. Ein doesn't seem to take offense, already used to his macho 'I hate everything' routine. (Which is a normal thing to do.)

"I'm sure." The raccoon-hate, at least, is legitimate.

Not even Spike can resist how cute he is. That's exactly the reason he's stayed.

And later it will occur to him to never bring up anything that bothers him if he doesn't plan on it coming back to bite him in the ass. And this was one of his more trivial issues.

When she shifts, his distraction stops being enough of one though. This is still a weird position to be in with her. "...Well, there aren't too many normal people to choose from around here."

Sometimes it's almost a good thing that Julia isn't around now. (Not at all, really, but he can pretend.)

"Unfortunate name." He knows it's Tess. He actually liked Tess from his limited exposure to her, but he's sort of used to that being the case. Nobody he knows likes each other.

More importantly, is she falling asleep? He'd better keep talking. "What'd she do?"

That woke her up. Well played, Spiegel.

"But you were worried what people might say?" Maybe that's not the question he should be asking, he's just latching onto the opportunity to focus on something other than raccoons.

"Does he play that card a lot?" Is that why you haven't tried to kill me again? -- is the actual question here. Curiosity.
gottaknockhard: (circle the fringes)

He'd be thrilled to see this, then. Spike swirls the mug in his hand around, contemplating how many times he's retrained himself out of what he felt he owed Brock. It's ironic. They're not even married.

"That's a lot to overlook." Thinking about her father again, so he's probably going to remember it after tonight. He never had this problem when he could still enjoy a drink.
gottaknockhard: (where do I begin)

[personal profile] gottaknockhard 2014-01-25 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)
There's a fine line between friendly banter and thinly veiled threats. Even if he's drunk, he can't be too sure which category that falls into. -- As if he's worried. Just because he broke their mutual understanding that they would avoid each other at all times.

"It's not like there's much point in that here."
gottaknockhard: (I think it's time we blow this scene)

*even if /she's/ drunk, gosh typos

Maybe if he stays on Ein's good side, he'll chew them up for him. There has to be some advantage to having a dog in your room. Ein may have trouble taking down the real thing, but toys... are harmless and don't bother Spike at all, naturally.

"I can't see why anyone would."
gottaknockhard: (never looking over my shoulder)

whoopsie, sorry Brock

[personal profile] gottaknockhard 2014-01-26 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
Have some dignity, Ein, come on. He would never betray someone who forgets to feed him most of the time, would he?

"It never hurts to be easy to please."
gottaknockhard: (could see from my face)

[personal profile] gottaknockhard 2014-01-26 01:40 pm (UTC)(link)
If she feeds him, she has to adopt him. Those are the rules.

"You'd think, yeah." Spike watches at her, idly trying to think of what her loss is. The eye thing came before, so what?
gottaknockhard: (the real folk blues)

[personal profile] gottaknockhard 2014-01-27 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
Is she really falling asleep? Lulling her into conversation that isn't hostile was a poor decision in hindsight, especially considering how awake he is. What are the odds he can roll away without her noticing?

Well, whatever they are, that's what he's trying now. See if he can't just yank his arm out like a tablecloth. Easy.
gottaknockhard: (what's the real lesson)

He's also a guy who barely batted an eye at Faye Valentine when she was lounging in his living space in stripperwear for the better part of a year. It takes a special kind of person.

"--I wasn't sneaking. I just needed to stretch." Once he's free, he demonstrates this by placing his mug on the table. Very believable. "And a smoke. Unless you don't mind."
