［０９］ Should've known you were trouble from the first kiss...
Hold on, Seren.
[Chase sighs and plucks his daughter up again from the floor where she kept trying to sit. Placing her on the bed this time the Crow patiently pulls the straps back up on her romper, socks and shoes went on before she was allowed to get up and run around again.]
How you can still be so hyper this late... [He sighs and rubs at his ( Read more... )

Hell no. He likes casual. He's wearing one of his nicer (read: cleaner) t-shirts under an unbuttoned dress shirt (not too fancy) and slacks.
A light knock followed by entering would be fine. But deactivating the talismans does just about the same thing, Chase notices they go down and again his heart is up in his throat with nervousness. He makes himself stop and close his eyes, taking a few deep breaths to calm down, Seren playing with Zane who is trying to sleep.
Chase glances at Allen, a small smile on his lips.] I asked her if she wanted ta go ta tha park 'nd she's been like this since then. Hope that's alright... [Seren gets up when she hears Allen's voice and runs over, hugging his leg and finally saying his whole name!]
'nd she's been askin fer ya since I said ye were goin too.

Fuck yeah casual. Thank god. Load off of his shoulders, you don't even know.
He sets the talismans up again before he wanders into the room too far of course. Poor doggy.
Allen's smile widens a little when he sees Chase's, and he nods understandingly. Ahhh, the hyperness of a young child promised fun.] Of course it is.
[He bends down as Seren runs over, scooping her up in his arms almost immediately; he even let's out a surprised little laugh when she says his name, kissing her cheek.]
She said my name... How long has she been able to do that?
Reply
[She laughs and kisses Allen's cheek right back, throwing her arms around his neck. Zane settles down into his well deserved sleep.]
Let's head inta tha livin room.
[Following Allen out and pulls the door mostly closed. The temptation is gone, not that Chase would have tried anything with Allen with Seren home anyway. But it's still a temptation...]
Do ya want some wine b'fore we go out?
Reply
[Nodding his head in agreement, sparing the bed a brief glance as they head out and the door is shut. He's a little glad that it's gone, too. He could sort of use something like that... and he definitely doesn't want to be tempted with Seren there.]
Ah.. you don't have red, do you?
Reply
[Instant gratification. Guess who got it! 8D;;;
Perhaps...down the road. Way down the road. Or. If they're tempted during one of those monthly feedings. They probably do those well away from his rooms.
Pulling a bottle of wine out of the fridge and uses his knife to get the cork out.]
Keep both kinds in tha fridge, nice ta unwind with. [Not that he's allowed to have much, but he hasn't had the need to take his pain medication today. Taking two glasses - normal ones - and pours them both a bit of red wine before replacing the cork then the bottle in the fridge.
Chase puts the glasses between his legs and wheels over to the living room where Allen should be sitting with a restless Seren.]
Ya ken put'er down if'n ya need ta, Allen.
Reply
A-ah... [And he already knows where she got that from. akgjhdkjh
Silly monthly feedings will do them in. Though. If they're already tempted, it could definitely happen. :'| ]
Is it safe for you to be having any? [He's not sure how much medicine Chase has had today, but he doesn't want to take the risk with it. Won't need too much assurance as far as that goes, though.
Seren is indeed restless, squirming and wriggling in Allen's arms, and when Chase says that he can Allen sets her down.]
She has more energy than I do...
Reply
She picks up things from you too, Allen~ ♥
Even if they do? Chase won't stop them. He wants to make sure that Allen has a good meal. It's more important than any boundaries or doubts that he has.]
Haven't had any o'my pain medication t'day, nothin that'll react badly with alcohol. Promise. [His words are truthful as he hands Allen his glass.
Seren has already gone off to play with her bunny rabbit, Chase had to get her an orange one for Bike and she even calls it by Lavi's name.]
She's missed ya... [Here she is bringing "Lavi" over for Allen to meet, even. Chase smiles a little as he sips at his own wine.]
Reply
Sob. Not the best thing ever to pick up...
And using your body to make sure of that is a good thing? Really, Chase? Allen would object to that and you know it.
Normally Allen would shift closer, take a good whiff to make sure he really couldn't smell any drugs on him... But he trusts Chase, even u he can hear that it's not a lie. So he nods, and takes his glass when it's offered to him.] Thanks.
[He takes a sip from the glass, and blinks when he's shown the orange rabbit. He pats it on the head affectionately, and smiles at her.]
Yeah... I missed her, too. ["and you" goes unsaid.]

If Allen needed that kind of release after eating, Chase wouldn't say no. But he probably just offers Allen his wrist during the feedings. Less temptation that way. And they'll be close enough to each other during this date that Allen can always check to make sure he's telling the truth later.
Seren laughs and goes to play with it and the still white one that Chase had gotten her when she was younger.]
's nice havin'er back 'round like normal. Even if I still canno' take'er ta day care.
Reply
That is definitely a good idea. Smart Chase. Good Crow. Allen will do his best to resist all the temptation, and... probably wander off if he has trouble with it.]
Does the nurse do that? ...At least she's good for something...
Reply
Probably doesn't help though that Chase probably sits against a wall on the floor with Allen's back against his chest. No kissing that way either. Just a warm body around him.]
She does everythin with Seren tha' I canno' right now. Even if I wish I could. [Rubs at his head and drains the rest of his glass of wine.]
Reply
...sob. No. That would definitely not help. It'd make things so, so much worse. But he would try his best to resist..!]
Well you'll be able to do them soon. [Smiling, and raising his glass slightly, before he downs his own as well.]
Reply
fffffffff It would?]
No' this week but maybe tha next. [Takes Allen's glass and wheels back over to the kitchen with them both.]
Reply
What else do you think being against a warm body while feeding would do to him? :| ]
That isn't too bad... [He'd been expecting (dreading) that it would be so much longer than that. Thank goodness.]
Reply
Keep him warm...? Or at least help ground him, I thought.]
Tha's tha "a'tha least" end o'therapy. "A'most" is 'nother week 'nd a half.
Reply
I doubt you'll take that long, though. [And it sounds like he really does believe that.]
