THE APARTMENT

[rock_it_punch]

[Santo actually cleaned the place up for guests, which is far more than he usually does around the place. There's cake and ice cream and a place to put presents and oh yeah booze.]

Listen...I know shut up >.<

[ex_julianhe]

Really? Man, I don't know how that got by me.

[ Moving closer to her. ] You know, first off, I kept inviting you to the old getting-togethers, and secondly there's only one Hellion these days. Unless you want to join up this time, in which case I'll reconstitute them in the morning.

*amused forever*

[sofiawind]

You will have to pay more attention.

[she steps into his space and meets his eyes] I would like that, a lot.

>[

[ex_julianhe]

I'll get right on that. [ By leaning right back into her space, obviously. How's this for paying attention? ]

...Seriously? I was half joking.

Re: >[

[sofiawind]

Good [she pats his cheek briefly]

Yes, I miss having a team [she puts it simple]

[ex_julianhe]

[ STOP THAT. Catching her hand. Not getting away with that, Sofia. ]

Yeah, well. Maybe I do too. [ Thoughtful. ] We were pretty good against Ophelia with Raph and Mike.

[sofiawind]

[oh look, its easier for her to interlink their fingers from this, just to frustrate him obviously]

They were really good, they understood team work too.

[ex_julianhe]

[ ...Sometimes she's sneaky as hell. ]

Yeah. Well they're missing half their team, Raph told me. They're good guys.

[sofiawind]

And you do have Santo, I don't think he would be happy if he was left off your team.

[ex_julianhe]

Yeah, maybe. I can’t believe you’re actually encouraging this.

[sofiawind]

I don't want to be alone and I want to fight if anything happens.

[ex_julianhe]

[ They're still holding hands. He squeezes hers, and moves closer. ]

Sofia, you're not alone. If there's a fight I'll be there with you, like last time. I promise, okay?

[sofiawind]

[she nods, and rests her head briefly against his shoulder] Thank you, Julian.

Do you miss having a team?

[ex_julianhe]

[ Wow, know what's not a good idea? Him putting his arm around her right about now. He's doing it anyway. ]

...I do, sometimes. [ All of the time. ] You know me, I don't like sitting around and waiting for something to happen. I'd rather be out in the field doing something about it before it screwed up.

[sofiawind]

[Oh look, it doesn't look Sofia's minding his arm there. The friendly thing to do is lean in and she does] Then we will get the team together and be ready.

[ex_julianhe]

[ Oddly enough that doesn't put him off. His arm slides properly around her waist, as if he'd meant to do that all along.

Maybe he had. ] You've got a deal.
