Megabyte, Adam, Sammie and Harry catch up over dinner
Harry: *sits back and waits till we get home* *changes his mind* *talks to the driver and asks to be dropped off at MB and Adam's
Megabyte: *Kisses Adam* *thrusting slowly and kissing his neck*
Harry: *pulls up, sees light on, is willing to bet they are home* *gets out and balances on silly crutches*
Adam: *runs my hands up and down MB's back* *groans, arching my hips to meet his thrusts* Oh fuck.
Megabyte: *speeds up my thrusts still moving slowly* *kisses you* [Love you so much, BB]
Harry: *raps on the door* *knows if Sammie is in she'll hear* *grins when Sammie starts barking*
Adam: *deepens the kiss, sucks on your tongue* *cups your arse, trying to pull you deeper* *groans loudly*[Love you too, Edan]
Megabyte: *ignores the knock on the door and Sammie* *Speeds up more feeling the heat starting to spread out through my body*
Harry: *frowns, wonders if you are actually in, or if you've just not heard it. Rings the bell instead* *turns and sees car still waiting* *is glad, in case nobody's in. Doesn't think hobbling home would work*
Adam: *kisses down your neck, nipping on the skin* *arches off the bed* *can feel the heat growing in my groin* God, Edan [Love you so much]
Megabyte: *orgasms hard* ADAM!! *kisses you hard, moving erratically*
Adam: *lets go* fuckfuckfuck EDAN! *keeps arching up into you* *caresses your face over and over*
Harry: *hears various sounds and turns a bit pink as I can guess why you were ignoring the door* *figures this is a bad time* *figures that sooner or later you'll get to the door*
Megabyte: *collapses on you breathing heavily* [Love you, Adam.] *tries to calm down* [Got someone at the door]
Adam: *breath coming in gasps* *holds onto you tightly* *is shaking* [Gonna have to wait. Don't think I can get up just yet] *goes red realising what I've just said
Megabyte: *grins and carefully pulls out* *rolls over and grabs a couple of wet wipes* *cleans you and then myself* [Can get it.] *gets up and back tracks into the living room putting my clothes back on. *gathers up yours and tosses them into the bathroom* *yells* Coming.
Harry: *grins* *is glad you're actually compos mentis*
Adam: [Thanks] *lies there for a few mins getting my breath back* *forces myself off the bed and grabs my clothes*
Megabyte: *picks up Sammie who is dancing in front of the door* *opens it* *big grins* Harry! *frowns at the crutches and cast* What happened?
Harry: *grins back* *waves hand* Had of a bit of an argument with a piece of concrete. I think it won, unfortunately *turns, waves to the driver that he can leave*
Adam: *pulls on my boxers* *looks around for my jeans**seems to remember them still in the other room* *hears Harry's voice* [Fuck. Can't find my jeans. They still out there?] *is already pulling out another pair from the drawer
Megabyte: *opens the door wider* *yells to Adam* Harry's here. *to Harry* Be out in a second.
Harry: Besides *pets Sammie* I hear owners and dogs often look more alike the longer they are together, and I thought I'd get a head start on that.
Megabyte: [Put them in the bathroom]
Harry: *faux innocent* I didn't disturb you, did I? *knows full well what you were up to*
Megabyte: *snickers* Nah, we were done. Want some tea?
Harry: Tea sounds marvellous
Adam: [Not gonna go get them now and give Harry a good view. Found another pair.] *pulls them on and tshirt* *runs my fingers through my hair* *is still feeling flushed but rather sated* *walks out of the bedroom* Hey, Harry. *stops and notices the crutches and the cast* What happened?
Megabyte: *grins at you* [Just fucked looks good on ya] Want tea? Gonna make some for Harry.
Adam: *blushes* [Yeah looks good on you too] Sounds good. Thanks. Feeling dry.
Harry: *notices Adam is still looking a bit flushed * *grins* Had a bit of a run in with a wall that decided to disagree with me. Are you alright though, you look a little flushed * *is teasing*
Adam: *frowns* Run in with a wall? *eyes you up and down looking for any other injuries* *absently*Yeah, I'm fine. Just been...busy.
Megabyte: *walks past Adam, hand brushing against his leg as I go out to the kitchen* *puts on the kettle*
Adam: *watches MB go, eyes lingering on him* *turns to Harry* Take a weight off. You'll be feeling it if you've been on those crutches a while.
Harry: *shrugs stiffly* you know how clumsy I can be. *wonders if I can get down to say hi properly to Sammie as well* *Decides to wait* *laughs* not far, just from the car to the door. But thank you *makes his way into the living room*. So what have I missed lately? Been keeping out of mischief?
Adam: [Guessing it's not just a wall.] *remembers how I broke mine* [Would have got shoved into it to hit it that hard] *watches Harry carefully* *follows him into the living room* Yeah, kinda.
Megabyte: *caresses you telepathically* [Not wanting to say. Evading the question] *gets down mugs and puts tea bags in them* [something would have had to happen to make him hit it hard enough. shoved or tripped or something]
Adam: [yep exactly]
Harry: *sits down and is happy to fuss over Sammie from this angle*
Adam: *grins* She's pleased to see you.
Harry: *asks Sammie if she's been a good old girl* *looks up and smiles* I'm glad to see her. And you two as well, of course
Adam: [Need any help?] Glad you see you too, Harry. Was starting to get worried.
Harry: *stops petting for a moment* I'm sorry about that. I didn't intend to leave you in the lurch like that.
Megabyte: [Nah, got it.] *makes the tea and carries it out to the living room* *hands one to Harry and one to Adam* *picks up Sammie and puts her on the couch* *goes back out to the kitchen to get my mug* *calls out* Adam's been spoiling her.
Harry: *cradles tea and fusses some more* *observes MB picking up Sammie an claiming /Adam/ has been spoiling her* She needs spoiling, I think.
Adam: She's a good girl. Likes the attention. *settles down on the floor against the other chair, leaving it free for MB*
Megabyte: *comes out and settles in the chair* *strokes Adam's hair lightly* *grins* Been getting alotta attention.
Adam: *leans back against MB, into his touch* Gotta look after her properly. That's important.
Harry: *smiles as Sammie makes to get off the sofa and make her way over to Adam* *leans over and helps her off* Thank you for looking after her.
Megabyte: *rolls my eyes* Gonna wanna sleep on your bed now. *frowns at Harry, thinking he looks thinner* Eaten yet? Was gonna make dinner.
Harry: I'm afraid I wasn't able to catch lunch today *mentally curses meetings that run over* and I wasn't planning on trying to brave any of the motorway stops, so yes, if its not any trouble?
Adam: *frowns* Not good to be skipping meals, Harry. Especially if you're body's healing.
Megabyte: Nah. *sets down my mug* [Gonna go do dinner. Might open up more to you.] *gets up and goes into the kitchen*
Adam: *caresses you through the bond* [Yell if you want any help]
Harry: I know. *smiles a little* trust me, I would have rather had lunch, even motorway fare. Has Sammie been behaving herself?
Adam: Still need to eat, Harry. *scratches behind Sammie's ears* Yeah, she's been good. Megabyte took her to the vet's this morning for her check up.
Megabyte: *rummages around in the kitchen taking my time* *caresses you back* *opens a package of pork chops and puts them in a pan* [Gonna do chops and rice. Got some salad stuff too]
Harry: *seriously* I know. I guess I just forgot. What did the vet say?
Adam: [Sounds good. Can help with the salad when you get that far] *shakes head* Yeah, know that's easily done, still not good though. *fusses over Sammie some more* Vet says she's doing well. Cast needs to stay on a bit longer, but healing like it should be.
Harry: Good, I'm glad to hear that. *thinks you're very good with Sammie, both of you* I'll consider myself reminded in future then?
Adam: Yeah *grins* Gonna remind you if you forget too. *thinks about what MB threatened last time I didn't eat lunch* *blushes* *fusses over Sammie so more to cover it*
Harry: I guess that's fair. *wonders if he can get away with pot noodles and sandwiches*
Adam: *is watching you carefully* *waves my hand in the direction of your cast* Can heal that for you if you want, or at least speed things up a bit.
Megabyte: *covers the chops with gravy and adds mushrooms and seasonings* *puts it in the oven* *comes out of the kitchen* Gonna be about an hour.
Adam: *grins* *shifts to give you room to sit back down* Kinda worked up an appetite earlier.
Harry: *considers for a moment* That depends, what is that likely to do to you? *remembers you passing out from healing in the ER* *frowns* *to Megabyte* Thank you. I'm not sure I have anything edible in the flat, to be honest.
Adam: Be fine, Harry. Not run down like that other time. Been getting lots of rest. Can do it if you want.
Harry: In that case I think I would be foolish if I were to say no, don't you think? As long as you'll be fine, please, I would appreciate it.
Megabyte: *to Harry* No problem. Needed to make something anyway. *drinks my tea and watches Adam carefully* *strokes his hair*
Adam: Not a problem. Do it when I've finished my tea if you want.
Harry: If you don't mind. *smiles* Only had this thing for a few days, and I will be very glad to get rid of it.
Adam: *nods slowly* Yeah. They're a pain. Still remember that. *is quiet for a moment*
Harry: *perks up* *curious* Sounds like the voice of experience?
Megabyte: *caresses Adam telepathically* [Love you, BB]
Adam: *leans back against MB more* [Love you too.] *shrugs* Yeah. Had my leg broken when I was a kid. *takes another sip of tea, draining the cup* *puts it down* Anyone know you've broken it? Might need to leave the cast on and fake it for a bit if they have. Otherwise, can just take it off after.
Harry: *sourly* only a few dozen people. Fortunately, I shouldn't be in touch with most of them regularly. *isn't happy by the way you've phrased your previous response. Is wondering if I should ask further or not*
Adam: Lucky you're a fast healer then. *stands up and walks over to you* *kneels down in front of you* Probably gonna feel a bit of heat when I do this. That's normal.
Harry: *nods, is curious as to how this works/feels**watches intently*
Megabyte: Kinda tingles too. Like it was asleep.
Harry: Pins and needles? *frowns* *wonders if and how the capillaries are affected*
Adam: Yeah. *holds my hand over Harry's leg* *focuses my power and closes my eyes* *imagines the bone and surrounding tissues mending, healing*
Megabyte: *watches carefully for signs that Adam is pushing it*
Harry: *Watches, feels some heat and 'odd' is the best way of describing it* *settles down as some of the nerves in the foot and leg stop talking to me*
Adam: *keeps focusing, going deeper as I feel skin and bone knitting together* *breathing starts speeding up*
Harry: *wonders if this kind of thing usually causes headaches* *wonders if its just residual stress*
Megabyte: *notices Sammie watching intently* *grins, remembering she did that when Adam healed me.*
Adam: *double checks that everything is as it should* *frowns as I feel some kind of scarring, heals that too while I'm there* *feels something on the edge of my mind* *knows MB still gets concerned when I do this* *sways slightly* *knows I've done all I can* *starts pulling out slowly*
Harry: *feels a lot better* Thank you *notices you sway* Are you alright?
Megabyte: *puts down my cup and walks over to where Adam is kneeling* *puts a hand on his shoulder to steady him*
Adam: *opens my eyes* *tired voice* Yeah, I'm fine. *leans back against MB* Just need to sit for a few minutes. Had some scarring in there from an old injury. Healed that as well while I was in there.
Harry: Thank you. Was that the red glow I saw? *is curious* *stretches as much as possible with the cast* I hadn't realised you could tell that?
Megabyte: *helps Adam up on the couch next to Harry* *sits next to him and pulls him back so he is resting against me*
Adam: Usually get that when I heal. The glow I mean. *shrugs* Yeah, getting better more I do it. Know more stuff about how things work now too. That's helped.
Harry: *shifts to give you a bit more room*
Adam: *smiles at MB* I'm fine, love. Really. *caresses him through the bond*
Harry: Interesting. I'm not surprised the theoretical knowledge helps, if you want we can work on that.
Megabyte: Know ya are. Need to rest now. *kisses your hair* [Can more if ya want me to]
Adam: *nods*Yeah, would be great. *Sigh* Hate having to hide this. Could do a lot more with it. *to MB* [Could do with another cup of tea with some sugar. That okay?]
Harry: *thinks* We might be able to work something out you know. Provided you didn't overdo it of course. I mean, if you want we might be able to work out a way in which you could help out some of the more serious cases in ICU a little. Not noticeably of course, but its got to be possible if that's what you want.
Adam: *quietly* Yeah, I would. Have this power for a reason. Wanna use it to help people.
Harry: What is easier for you? hard tissue, soft tissue?
Megabyte: [Yeah. Can do that.] *gets up and takes your mug into the kitchen* *starts the water heating* *checks on the chops and starts the rice while it heats*
Adam: *Shrugs* Hadn't really noticed a difference. *caresses MB through the bond* [Thanks, love.] Asked Megabyte to make me some more tea. The sugar helps.
Harry: *frowns* I imagine it would. I'm guessing the amount of energy you expend is relatively high then?
Megabyte: *caresses you back* [Welcome]
Adam: *shrugs* Depends on how deep I have to go and how focused. Some stuff takes more than others. Better now I can focus. *Sheepish* Used to go in blind before and hope for the best before I passed out. Not a great way of doing stuff.
Harry: *has a thought* Can you also heal things like blood clots or kidney stones?
Adam: *nods slowly* Yeah. Did some of that in the hospital few months back.
Harry: *frowns* no, I imagine flying blind it isn't the way to go. I was wondering if you could help with brain aneurysm's and the like. Things were the body could have done it, but you could give it a helping hand so to speak.
Adam: Yeah. That's what I did on your leg. Just gave your natural healing process some help. Sped it up. *pauses* Did the same for Megabyte last week.
Harry: Oh? What happened? Is Megabyte alright?
Adam: *eyes narrow* Yeah. Is now. *mutters something under my breath that sounds like 'fucking bitch*
Harry: *calm voice* Adam, is there something I should know about? *wonders what happened* *shifts so Sammie can join us on the sofa, helps her up*
Adam: Yeah. Gonna find out when you get into work. *reaches for MB through the bond* Marie poured hot coffee over him.
Harry: *frowns* When you say poured, do you mean in a deliberate or in an accidental sense? *wants to be absolutely clear on this*
Megabyte: *reaches back and caresses you* [Love you, Adam] *can sense your agitation* *makes the tea and adds sugar* *brings it out to the living room*
Adam: Deliberate. Tried it on with him, he said no and she didn't like it.
Megabyte: *hands Adam his tea and sits down on the floor in front of the couch* *reaches up and pets Sammie*
Harry: Tried it on? I thought everyone in the department was well and truly aware that the two of you were married. *thinks its not as if you haven't given a few of us the odd reason to at least believe you two are involved* *frowns* *wonders what got into Marie* *turns to MB* Are you alright?
Adam: *takes the tea from MB* Thanks, love. *to Harry* Yeah, well, not that that's stopped her before from what I've heard.
Megabyte: *grins* Golden. Want more tea? Got hot water.
Harry: I'd heard some rumours, but she always seemed perfectly normally behaved to me. *wonders what I've missed * *To mb* yes please *to Adam* please tell me you reported this?
Adam: Yeah, filed a report, and talked to Dr. Andrews and she sorted it out. Marie's on suspension, got a review board hearing in a couple of weeks.
Harry: Were there any witnesses?
Megabyte: *takes your mug and goes out to the kitchen* *call to Harry* Got coffee too if ya want that*
Harry: Coffee would be lovely, thank you
Adam: *nods* Yeah. There was.
Harry: good. *frowns* how badly was he hurt?
Adam: *looks down* Lot more than they think. Healed some stuff, had to leave the rest.
Megabyte: *puts the mug in the sink and gets a clean one* *makes the coffee and brings it out*
Harry: How much more? Can't do anything to help without knowing what happened. *thinks I'm being a little hypocritical with not sharing myself but pushes that aside*
Adam: Would have been second degree burns. What they saw wasn't quite that and healed one bit completely. Wasn't taking any chances. *moves over for MB to sit down* Still not great. *keeps my voice calm, but flat* Across his lower abs and down his legs.
Harry: That's a large enough surface area to scar and disfigure then, if it had have happened the way she had originally intended.
Adam: Would have been one hell of a lot worse if I hadn't healed him. Damn lucky.
Megabyte: *hands Harry the mug and sits down* *wraps my arms around Adam and rests my chin on his shoulder*
Adam: *reaches up and runs my hands through MB's hair* *leans back into his embrace* [Still wanna kill that bitch]
Harry: very lucky indeed. *considers for a few minutes* you said there was a hearing planned, would you like me to accompany you?*wonders if there's anything else he can do*
Adam: *glances at MB* Both gotta testify. Didn't heal the rest till it was safe, but still healed probably faster than it should. Wasn't gonna leave him in pain though. Had to wait too damn long as it was.
Megabyte: *tilts my head and kisses your neck* [Know ya do.]
Harry: Fast healers are not unheard of.
Megabyte: Itched like a son of a bitch *grins*
Harry: *grins* I can imagine. Come to think of it *tries to dig into the cast to scratch* remind me to never tell a patient not to scratch again?
Megabyte: *Snickers* Why I took the cast off when I broke my leg. Driving me nuts
Adam: *shakes my head* Had to motivate him not to scratch this time *can't help but smirk*
Harry: *wonders if breaking legs is just a rite of passage nowadays, everyone seems to have done it before* A good cast shouldn't be able to come off, Megabyte. *to Adam* I don't want to know, do I?
Adam: *grins at Harry* Probably not, no. Worked though.
Megabyte: *snickers* Took off two of them. Got better stuff now. Had regular plaster when I was 10.
Harry: *can feel his ears turning pink, has a good idea* As long as it worked. *taps his cast* thank heavens this is fibreglass* *deliberately ignores the fact they put hot pink on it. Has a good idea who ordered that*. *to MB* What did you do? and could you get back into it? *wonders if this is an option*
Adam: Yeah plasters back then weren't great. *shakes my head* He's real inventive and determined as hell when he wants to be.
Megabyte: Sat in the tub and soaked it off. Was in pieces but didn't itch when I was done. *kisses Adam* [Like it when I get inventive]
Harry: *grins* I don't think that would work with this.
Adam: *kisses MB back* [God, yeah. Never say no to trying something new]
Harry: *watches, think you two make a cute couple. Even if it is still considered unorthodox*
Megabyte: Nah. Woulda had to get into the toolbox for that.
Harry: If I really needed to get it off, I suppose I could get it off. But seeing as it as only just put on, and I rather expect to be in contact with some of these people I guess I'll just have to brace myself, pun intended, and deal with it.
Adam: *shakes head* Didn't even occur to me to take mine off. Just put up with it. *nods to Harry* Yeah, probably need to leave it on a while and fake it. Sorry.
Harry: *waves hand at the cast* don't worry. It doesn't hurt now, which makes things a lot easier to deal with
Megabyte: *Snickers* Were a good boy. Only took it off twice.
Adam: *snorts* Only twice.
Harry: *to MB* you're the kind of patients that makes us wonder how you manage it.
Adam: *pride in my voice* Yeah. Which is good as he's a bloody awful patient. *grins* Got no patience.
Harry: *chuckles* *thinks its a bad pun, but better than some he's heard recently*
Megabyte: *sticks my tongue out at Adam* Doc said he was gonna restrain and cathorize me. Decided it didn't itch that much.
Harry: *teasing* gentlemen, what you get up to in your own time is your problem, not mine.
Megabyte: *snickers at Harry*
Harry: *remembers all too well what kind of magazines you two have*
Adam: Hey, only suggested the first one, not the second. *grins* *sticks my tongue back out at MB*
Harry: *thinks he'd better cut off the train of thought he's currently developing before it truly gets going....* talking of which, Sarah Jane is doing well last I saw her.
Adam: Went to her flat cause we were worried about her. Wasn't there.
Megabyte: She getcha in trouble? *grins*
Harry: *to Adam* She was..investigating. *changes it from snooping at the last moment* And no, she did not get me into trouble. Or maybe I should rephrase that. What makes you think I got into trouble?
Megabyte: *kisses Adam's neck and grins*
Harry: *innocent look*
Adam: *points to the cast* That for starters. *matches Harry's innocent look*
Harry: *looks down that the cast*. Ah, that. You have a point there.
Megabyte: Adam's way smart.
Harry: *grins* he's a doctor, of course he's smart
b>Adam: needs a fair amount of force hitting a wall to break a leg, Harry:
Harry: *cradles coffeecup* *looks up* Its not that I don't want to tell you boys what happened. Its that I can't.
Megabyte: *coughs* smart ass. *serious* Classified?
Harry: *to Adam, calmly* True. *wonders how you know that. Not liking the suspicion that's forming.* *to MB* indeed. Do me a favour? Let this one lie. Trust me, you do not want to know.
Adam: Look after our friends, Harry. If you're in trouble still and we can help...
Megabyte: *tightens my hold on Adam* [Gotta respect what he wants.]
Harry: *shakes head* I appreciate that, but this should be done at this point.
Adam: [Yeah I know. Worried about him. Playing with dangerous people if they broke his leg]
Megabyte: [Dunno that they did. Dunno what happened and not gonna tell us.] *caresses you through the bond*
Harry: I know you're both curious and I know Megabyte probably has more than enough raw talent to hack into the MOD computers. Just please don't.
Adam: *shrugs* [Doubt he did it himself. Not if there was a wall involved like he said]
Harry: And I'd like to apologise to you. I had reason to suspect I might be called away last time we had dinner. *isn't proud of lying* I just thought it would be Sarah calling me, not them.
Megabyte: *grins evilly* Got security clearance. Doing some work for them designing some data collection programs from them. [Mighta been an accident.]
Adam: [Nah. Not the angle of the break and looking at the damage I healed.] No need to apologise, Harry. Just relieved you're okay.
Harry: *looks surprised* That sounds interesting, much more interesting than what happened. *quietly* *debates if he should say this or not* look, several young men your age died. I don't want to see either of you in trouble or hurt over this. Just leave it be, it should be over.
Adam: Not gonna get into trouble, Harry. Just worried about you.
Megabyte: Are ya safe Harry?
Harry: *to Adam* Don't worry. I'm not in any trouble. We dealt with that. *to MB* I'm as safe as you or Adam is. I'm nothing more than a bit player, equivalent to a pawn on a chessboard. *grins* I'm not on any active teams.
Megabyte: K *gets up and goes into the kitchen to check on dinner*
Adam: *very quietly* Pawns have a habit of being sacrificed to advance the other pieces or to keep the King safe. Just be careful, okay?
Harry: *is being a smartarse* Queen, actually, in this context. *more seriously* I doubt they'll ever recall me again. I'm getting too old for this. They have younger and fitter doctors to take my place. Besides. Some things are worth fighting for.
Adam: *slowly* Yeah they are.
Harry: *thoughtfully and gently* you know, getting second degree burns and ending up in a hearing was not what I meant with keeping your nose clean.
Adam: *gives you a look* That wasn't his fault. Told her he wasn't interested and she wouldn't listen. If anyone's fault it was mine. *gets up* Need to take a piss. *walks into the bathroom and shuts the door*
Harry: *sits back and figures, yep, he's done it again*. *wipes hand over his face*
Megabyte: *can feel Adam's distress* *reaches out to caress him through the bond* [Okay?] *Serves the food and starts bringing things out to the table*
Adam: *sheepish* [Yeah, just need a few minutes. Sorry] *leans against the bathroom wall, taking deep breaths*
Harry: *wonders when I'll learn. Wonders if that bottle of rum I have stashed away in the bottom drawer is still viable* *figures I'll need it regardless, tonight* *to MB* Can I help?
Megabyte: Yeah *softly* What happened?
Harry: *sighs* I should know better by now. *looks at MB* I'm afraid I managed to make an uncalled for remark. It was intended as a tease, *shrugs* but I seem to have upset Adam. I'm sorry
Megabyte: What did ya say? *brings out the plates and silverware* Wanna set the table?
Harry: *gets up, careful not to overbalance* I commented that hearings and second degree burns wasn't what I meant with keeping your noses clean. *takes forks and knives, starts setting the table.*
Megabyte: *nods* Hit on him first and he said no. Thinks its his fault. *sighs* Blames himself for stuff.
Adam: *relieves myself* *washes my hands* *splashes water on my face* *stares at myself in the mirror* *sighs* *runs my hands through my hair*
Harry: *thoughtfully* that seems to be a very common trait in the medical profession. Blaming oneself, that is. Not all of us do it, but I know a fair number. *turns to MB* He cannot be blamed for an action he did not perpetrate
Megabyte: Only person who does is him.
Adam: *comes out of the bathroom* *forced brightness* Need any help?
Harry: *turns* *to Adam* I apologise. My comment was intended as jest but it was also uncalled for. I'm sorry.
Adam: *shrugs* I'm the one who should apologise. I overreacted. Sorry.
Megabyte:*Smiles at Adam* Wanna get the salad?
Adam: Yeah. *goes out to the kitchen before Harry has a chance to reply*
Harry: *frowns* *turns to MB* I'll keep that under advisement.
Megabyte: *sighs and runs a hand through my hair* Big parta who he is. Blames himself for stuff.
Adam: *gets the salad* *Looks around in the drawer for the servers* *brings them out and puts them on the table* Want me to feed Sammie, Harry or do you want to?
Harry: *waves at the cast* I think you might have an easier time with that. Besides, by now she's probably used to you.
Adam: Kay. *whistles to Sammie and walks out of the room, her following*
Harry: *wonders how attached to you two Sammie has grown* *to MB* you know, I think I have a bottle or two of wine at my house that we could liberate if you think they would suit the meal?
Megabyte: *grins* Want me to go get it? Got glasses in the cupboard.
Harry: *smiles* if you don't mind? There should be a few bottles in the hall cupboard in the wine rack.
Adam: *comes back out into the living room* *frowns* What meds you on, Harry?
Harry: *hands you two packets*
Megabyte: K *focuses and teleports* *figures you guys will sort the other out*
Adam: *looks at the packet* *turns it over* *hands them back* Just checking you should be drinking. *grins at you*
Harry: *dryly* if it helps any, I haven't had any since breakfast, which was at the ungodly hour of o-dark-hundred *shudders*.
Adam: *shudders in sympathy* Bloody ungodly hour. Not missing night shift.
Harry: *sympathises* I never do either. Never was a morning person, despite the navy doing its best to try and drill it into me.
Megabyte: *looks through the wine and finds one that I think will work with the chops* *teleports back to the apartment*
Adam: Yeah, not one either. Prefer my bed in the mornings.
Harry: waking up that early has been one habit I had no problems breaking when I left.
Megabyte: [Prefer you in bed in the morning] *sends you a picture of what we did before you left for work this morning*
Harry: So what shift do you prefer?
Adam: *swallows* *Shifts slightly* One closer to normal hours. Means meal times aren't so far out and have time for other stuff.
Harry: *nods* and the extra day off means you can at least get to banks, unlike in a regular 9-5 job *wanders over to MB* *checks out which wine you picked out*
Adam: Yeah, good with not always getting the lunch break. Gonna go get the glasses. *grins at MB* Dinner smells good. Feeling hungry.
Megabyte: *hands Harry the bottle and goes out to get the glasses*
Harry: *thinks MB has good taste in matching wine to meals*
Adam: *goes out to the kitchen* *finds the glasses and brings them back out* *puts them on the table* *sits down*
Megabyte: Gonna need a lift home after dinner. Got the stuff for Sammie too.
Adam: Can do that between us. *grins at Harry* Got to be some advantages to the porting.
Harry: True *looks around and notices several new dog toys* It looks like you two went to town...let me know how much I owe you?
Adam: *shakes head* No, we enjoyed having her here. They're hers now.
Harry: *frowns* *picks one up, not quite sure what it is* Are you sure? I do appreciate both your help looking after her.
Adam: *firmly* Very sure.
Megabyte: Told ya Adam spoiled her. *ignores her staring and looking at me*
Harry: *grins* Good girls deserve spoiling
Adam: *rolls eyes* Wasn't me in the kitchen with the vegemite.
Megabyte: *Snickers* Sounds like the answer for clue. Could kill someone with that stuff.
Adam: *snorts* Got no taste.
Harry: *gives MB a look* vegemite?
Megabyte: Was on my fingers. Had to get rida it some way.
Harry: *grins* of course *sounds way too believing*
Adam: Yeah. Right. *offers Harry my glass*
Megabyte: Was making toast for Adam. Wasn't gonna lick it off. *shudders*
Harry: *concedes* well of course not. Marmite is much better.
Harry: *takes glass* thank you Adam.
Adam: *shudders at the thought of Marmite* Dinner smells great, Edan. Thanks. *stomach is starting to rumble*
Harry: Yes, it does. thank you
Megabyte: So ya know. Trowa's gonna be gone for a while. Outta town for work
stuff. Quatre did a post on LJ about it.
Harry: Oh? I'm sure Quatre and Kevin must be missing him then.
Adam: *to MB* Was thinking we should probably ask them over for dinner one night. Make sure they're eating properly that way too.
Harry: how long will he be gone for?
Megabyte: *to Adam* Yeah, was thinking that. Dunno.
Harry: well I very much appreciate this.
Adam: *shrugs* Not sure they know either. However long it takes, I'm guessing.
Harry: *frowns* that sounds very unpleasant for them.
Megabyte: Yeah. *Entwines my fingers with Adam* Dunno how they can do it.
Adam: Yeah, know I couldn't do it. *Squeezes MB's hand*
Harry: One does what one must, unfortunately
Megabyte: *nods in agreement and reluctantly lets go of Adam's hand so I can eat*
Adam: *caresses MB through the bond* Do what we can to help out, know it's gonna be tough.
Harry: If there is anything I can do, let me know? *knows there was some animosity between myself and Trowa*
Adam: *Nods* Yeah, just keeping an eye on them. Tend to often not let on when something's wrong.
Megabyte: *caresses you through the bond* *eyes Adam and Harry pointedly* Dunno anyone else who does that.
Harry: *eyes Adam* I couldn't imagine who else does that
Adam: *grins* No idea.
Megabyte: *grins at Harry*
Harry: *wonders why you're both looking at me?* Either way they don't seem to visit the hospital very often. Not that they have cause to, luckily
Adam: Both busy with school, takes a lot of time.
Harry: *frowns* you know, I can't off the top of my head recall what they are studying *wonders if I've forgotten it, or never known it*
Megabyte: Gonna get worse cause Kev's gonna do the pysch doc thing. Quatre's studying family law.
Adam: Yeah. Long hours. Gonna have to give up the work at the daycare once he starts that. *nods* Yeah and Quatre's working part time too. Teaches music.
Harry: A psychologist and a lawyer....*nods* I can see them being both very easily.
Megabyte: Probably gonna be his last year at the daycare. Said he was gonna have to do like intern stuff starting this summer. Get a head start on it.
Adam: Hard doing that with a relationship. Especially with three of them and finding the time for each other. Real important to do that.
Harry: That's a shame, he seemed to enjoy being with the children. Will he be interning at the hospital, or at a psychiatric clinic?
Megabyte: Dunno what he's gonna do. Dunno if he does. Kinda overwhelmed with stuff right now.
Harry: I can imagine. sometimes you just have to take things one day at a time.
*motions to the pork chops* this is excellent by the way
Adam: *nods* yeah too much otherwise.
Megabyte: Made extra so ya don't have to cook tomorrow.
Adam: Can't live on pot noodles and sandwiches. *gives Harry a pointed look
Harry: *figures you're going to keep doing this till I give in gracefully * *decides to bring along some goodies next time * Thank you I'll have you know I have a healthy and balanced diet there's biscuits in there too. *smiles*
Adam: *grins* Easier to just give in, Harry. He's real stubborn about this kinda thing. Still checks to make sure I eat lunch and stuff.
Harry: *knows full well that noodles, sandwiches and biscuits are not the main food groups* *gives you a pointed look* Good. I don't want you passing out on me again. Gave me the frights, you did.
Adam: *shrugs* Not gonna do that again. Learnt my lesson. Good boy now. *grins at MB*
Megabyte: *shrugs* Someone's gotta. My job to take carea ya. Swore in front a bunch of people I would. *snickers* way good
Adam: *quietly* Goes both ways. Supposed to take care of you too. Wanna take care of you.
Harry: Part of your marriage vows? To love, hold and feed?
Megabyte: Love, honour and sex him up *grins*
Harry: right, may I make a suggestion? If Megabyte is going to insist on feeding me in future, I insist on bringing the drinks. So, what are your favourite poisons?
Megabyte: *points to the bottle on the table* Liked this. Good flavour. Not real heavy.
Harry: I'll make a note of that. Any others?
Adam: *nods in agreement* Yeah, this was great. Trust your judgement, got good taste.
Megabyte: Taste good too. *snickers*
Harry: Thank you. *wicked grin* I'll remind you of that next time you need some noxious tasting medicine.
Megabyte: Can tell ya what I'm making. Letcha choose what ya think is good.
Harry: *nods* that would help.
Adam: *grins* He'll be packing you a lunch if you let him.
Harry: *gives Adam a 'don't give him idea's' look* I think I can handle lunch, thank you. I've managed so far.
Adam: *grins* Yeah, seen the remains of those in the bin in your office
Megabyte: *snickers* *yawns* Sorry, Adam's on early shift again.
Harry: *sigh* I have all the major food groups in my office. Beans for fibre, dairy, sugars, and starches. Just a little light on the protein *doesn't mention its coffee beans and chocolate beans, on biscuits* oh, and caffeine. Major foodgroup. should be added to the charts. *to MB* if you want I can leave as soon as we're done. You could probably both use some rest.
Adam: When you back at work, Harry?
Harry: officially the day after tomorrow, but it'll probably be in tomorrow to talk to admin for a while. *needs to clear up some things so its not taken from his holiday days*
Is there anything you want me to look at while I'm in?
Adam: *nods* Yeah, been a bit of paperwork piling up on your desk too. Been going in there to port. Hope that's okay.
Harry: Let me rephrase that. Is there anything that needs urgent undivided attention barring this hearing?
Megabyte: Can stay as long as ya want. Might drool on ya though.
Harry: and you're more than welcome to port in there. I'd rather you did that safely *to MB* I think I may delegate that onerous position to Adam, if you don't mind.
Adam: *grins* The things you do for love.
Harry: are only limited by the things those we love will let us do for them *grins*
Megabyte: *Smiles* Like that *looks at Adam* *takes his hand*
Adam: *smiles at MB* Yeah, it's very true. *to Harry* Don't think there's anything else. Been busy but nothing out of the ordinary apart from what happened with Marie. Go into more details at the weekly meeting with what did happen.
Harry: or as I once heard it said, gentlemen, honour your ladies. Ladies, be worthy of that honour. I think the same applies, regardless of the gender of the couple.
*nods* that's probably a good idea.
Adam: *softly* Love and honour go hand in hand. Respect someone when you love them.
Harry: yes, you do
Megabyte: *grins sleepily* Adam's gotta lotta honour.
Adam: *frowns, feeling MB getting sleepier* If we're gonna port you home, Harry, probably should be soon. Don't wanna hit the ocean.
Harry: *shudders* I'd prefer not going swimming with plaster. Besides, I wouldn't want Sammie to catch a cold. *grins* we're going to be a sight for sore eyes at the park, if either of you wants to join us though, you're more than welcome
Adam: Might do that, if that's okay. Kinda enjoyed taking Sammie for walks and stuff.
Harry: you're welcome any time, both of you or either of you. Besides, she might be listening to you better than to me by now. *gets up, sees Sammie pay attention and wag her tail* right, before we all fall asleep, shall we adjourn?
Megabyte: *gets up and starts clearing the table* *to Adam* Wanna get Sammie's stuff? Can probably do one trip.
Adam: Yeah, was just gonna suggest that. *stifles a yawn*
Harry: *tries to balance while bending over and picking up toys*
Megabyte: *gathers up dishes and takes them into the kitchen* *comes back out and takes the left over food in too* *puts it away after making a plate for Harry*
Harry: *finds yawn's contagious *wonders if he can train Sammie to find and get all her toys in future*
Adam: *collects all of Sammie's stuff* *empties out her water bowl and cleans it and her food bowl* *finds a bag to put everything into* If we've forgotten anything will drop it off later, okay? Think this is about it though.
Harry: I don't think it will be a problem if one or two items have been forgotten for a few days. And thank you both again for looking after her.
Megabyte: Did ya get the biscuits and stuff? *comes out of the kitchen and hands the plate to Harry*
Harry: *takes plate* *notices its a good plate too* Thank you Megabyte
Adam: Yeah got those. Just not sure I've got all her toys.
Megabyte: Did ya get the stuffed toy she sleeps with? Was on the bed
Harry: *looks at the bag * How many toys did you get her?
Megabyte: *to Harry* Welcome.
Adam: *nods* Yeah, and her blanket too.
Megabyte: *grins* Told ya he spoiled her.
Adam: *rolls eyes* Wasn't me who got her the blanket
Harry: you two would both be good dog parents. It's good to know she's got you.
Megabyte: Only cause she got cold and crawled under the covers with us. Had a cold nose on my ass.
Adam: *grins* Should have seen his reaction. Amusing as hell
Harry: Oh? *is curious*
Adam: *sniggers* Thought it was something else
Harry: *has an inking as to what* I really don't want to know, do I?
Megabyte: *sulks* Woke me up. *eyes Adam* Didn't think Bailey sleeping on your pillow was so cute.
Adam: *grins* Neither did you when you got a mouth full of fur.
Harry: *grins*
Megabyte: *reaches out for Harry's hand* Can port you. Adam can bring Sammie. *picks up the bag of pet supplies since Adam has the crate and the dog* *teleports*
Adam: *Shifts the bag of stuff over my shoulder, balancing the crate in one hand* *picks up Sammie, stroking her to reassure her* *teleports, following you*
Harry: *is glad to get back home*
