There was a pile of laundry on her bed, actually clean and still a bit warm from the dryer toward the bottom of the pile. She had no clue how that had even happened since her quarters weren't exactly close to laundry service, but she managed it. She reached into the middle of the pile pulling a tank top out and tugging it on over her head as she

Carson had kicked him out of the lab, Rodney had fucking *reported* him for dicking with the sensors to track his movements throughout Atlantis and send them straight to his palm pilot, making it beep constantly, and Mike wasn't letting him pester Zalenka about taking apart any more of the puddle jumpers...the sounds of the sensors taking readings on Jumper 12 still played out the melody to "Smoke on the Water".
The worst part, though, was Mike not being around...on the mainland with Teyla. With a lack of a "playmate", Jim was left to his own devices...and that was dangerous, at least sometimes. Addie, however, wasn't even busy at the moment...Jim had hacked personnel files from his quarters and looked at her duty roster himself.
So it was that Jim let himself into her quarters, ambling in with arms swinging and cheeks puffing out with a long, dramatic sigh as he looked around for her. "Dimples?!?! Yo, Ruskie, where you at?"
"Ow!...Ow and OW!"Frowning at the grunts coming from the direction of the bathroom, ( ... )

Jim had her leg in hand and was pressing against the knick that she had sliced into her leg, "Thanks. All those years of doing this, and I still haven't gotten the hang of it, well I have, but it comes with a cost."
Laughing again she smiled over at him, "Hi. So... just in the neighborhood were we?"

Once the cut stopped bleeding, Jim set the towel aside and extended his hand for the razor silently. When she didn't give it to him and simply looked at him strangely, he grinned and leaned over to snatch it from her. "Gimme that...doctor here. Best leave legs *this* valuable to a professional."

"Besides...I shave every day." he quipped, glancing up at her with a grin, his usual scruffy five o'clock shadow testifying to the exact opposite. "I'm good at it."

"A club you say... I really hope the membership fees are high," she teased right back. He didn't have that much to shave anyway, she had already finished her one leg, and the knick was just a result of her own distraction.
His own comment regarding shaving cracked her up, making her lean forward and reach for his cheek, brushing the back of her hand to the scruff, "Mmm-Hmm. Yeah I can tell you're really good at it."

At her crack about his shaving, he pretended to pout at her. "Hey...that's intentional. Chicks dig scruff, don't you know that?" he quipped, poking her shin playfully. "After all, you love my scruff. Don't lie...I think you told it so the other night in your sleep."

Shaking her head and smirking she laughed, "I'd come sit on your lap, but you are sitting atop my toilet, and really? That's not exactly lap sitting placement in my mind."
Standing up and tugging at the bottom of her tank top realizing suddenly that she wasn't exactly wearing all too much, she laughed again at the grin on his face, "Yeah I notice you're not complaining." Her hand reached for his trying to lure him out of the bathroom, her head glancing over her shoulder, "Help me fold clothes?"

"Yeah I notice you're not complaining. Help me fold clothes?"
"Not complaining, no, I'm actually applauding. Encouraging, even." Jim replied with a grin as he openly ogled her. "Reccomending, even...that outfit? Totally gratuitous. You should just take it all off. All of it. And the clothes? Let's fold 'em and give 'em all to charity. You don't need 'em. Nudism gets a bad rap, ya know..."

She was biting her lower lip, knowing full well that she was being a complete and total tease, "I'll have to take that under consideration." She laughed lightly walking backwards from the bathroom. She abandoned her attempt to simply lure him out with an offered hand, and opted to just go for broke.
"So this shirt? I shouldn't wear it anymore?" The expression on her face was a look of almost pure innocence and naivity, as her hands toyed with the bottom hem of the tank, lifting it slightly, "I thought it was kinda nice... but I mean you are making the recommendations here apparently."

He waited until she seemed to think he wasn't going to move before he launched himself up and rushed her, catching her with an arm around the waist to swing her up, her back against his chest as he spun her around with a mock growl. "It is my professional medical opinion that all those damn clothes are doing all sorts of unhealthy shit to your immune system, blood flow, and oxygen intake. You should remove them at once. Or better yet? You should let *me* remove them. With my teeth. Y'know...bein' that I'm medically trained to treat things such as this."

Her laughter was fading out a bit as she started to catch her breath. Her feet finally settled to the ground letting herself lean back against Jim, he ponytail now loose to her neck from all the goofing around. Her hand stretched up tugging the tie loose, then slinking up around Jim's neck pulling him down to kiss her as she twisted in his grip to face him.
Addie smiled into the kiss then pulled away, "Well... if it is life threatening, I should take the orders of the doctor."

"I love you." he rumbled, resting his forehead against hers. "I love you like...like a five year old loves Tootsie Rolls. Like a junkie loves heroin. Like Wimpy loves hamburgers, like Cookie Monster loves Girl Scouts. I mention that at all today, 'cause it's totally true."
