Who: The Dutchman (Wilm) and the Dane (Søren)
When: Friday, September 10th, 8:22 a.m.
Where: Wilm’s Apartment
What: Wilm didn’t think he knew anybody in Liberty besides his sisters. Søren lets him know differently.
(
Morning, sunspot. Open the door, special delivery. )
He returned Wilm's smirk with one of his own.
"But I suppose if anyone were to know something about little girls and their blushes, it would be you."

Or it might have been, if it hadn’t been Søren he was glaring at. And if the mention of little blushing girls hadn’t called to mind the pretty, blushing red head he’d met on the way home from class the day before. He could feel the tips of his ears turning pink, so he busied himself with pulling mugs from his cabinets.
“So no school. What do you do with yourself all day?”
He held up a mug.
“Still take your coffee the same way?”

He slid up behind Wilm and twined his arms around the Dutchman's neck with a well-practiced whine.
"Wiiiiiilm, I'm too young and beautiful to be a working schmuck! And you know I like my coffee Amsterdam-style, unless it's too early for you~ Just black, in that case."
...ah shit, it felt like old times. Clinging to Wilm in a way meant to both annoy and be affectionate as the other made coffee. It was like every post-bender Saturday morning they'd ever had. This time without the hangover.

“Not so much too early,” he replied without looking at the man hanging off his shoulders, “as that I have class this afternoon.”
He poured the Dane a cup and handed it to him before fixing himself one with just some added sugar. He took it to his kitchen table, sitting in one seat with his legs propped up on another, gesturing for Søren to take the one across.
“But it’s good you found your friend. Have you fixed whatever it was that happened back then?”

"Vel...what happened with you and your sisters, bro? I know things went arse up for awhile, but y'never really told me what the fuck went on with that. And you know my rule. 'Can't ask questions 'til you answer some'. 'Sides, I think that is more important than any of my bullshit, y'know?"
He twisted in place to rest his feet on Wilm's legs and leaned forward in an almost conspiratory manner.
"I'd like t'know, anyway. We've been kinda outta the loop with each other."

He rested the hand not occupied with a mug atop Wilm's head, ruffling the Dutchman's hair absently as he took a draw from his coffee thoughtfully.
"Mm," he coughed slightly from the bitterness of the drink, "Well. I think--and it's just me talkin' out of my ass, so don't take it too serious or anythin'-- that if it's botherin' you, s'probably botherin' her the same, even if she won't say shit about it. Might need t'just find a way to...meet halfway or somethin'. Somehow."
He gave Wilm a gentle nudge with the foot resting on Wilm's leg with a smile that wasn't his usual smirk and set the mug down by his hips.
"You'll manage, ja? She may be stubborn as hell, but you're older and a guy to boot. Don't get whipped by your own sister. I'm the only one who gets to have you whipped, okej ( ... )

“You are my only Danish friend, if that’s what you mean, although by no means do you have me whipped.”
He gave Søren’s legs a slight push so they weren’t in his way as he stood.
“But thanks, I’ll keep that in mind.”
Taking his coffee cup with him he headed towards his bedroom, calling over his shoulder, “and since you woke me up, it’s your responsibility to entertain me till class. I just need five minutes first.”

...but that was a bit asinine, even for him. Probably.He kept his precarious seat on the edge of the solidly built table (teak, carvings inlaid into the legs, and a small char mark hidden by his left thigh from one of their more adventurous nights in the Amsterdam apartment)and glanced around the kitchen, slowly being filled with the various bric-a-brac and bagatelle of the life back in Nederlandene, when he mockingly spoke a foreigner's Dutch to piss Wilm off for no reason other than the reaction he'd get ( ... )
