Clark doesn't help all that much with the food. Cutting bread doesn't really count and frankly, Anna not only seems to have things under control, she likes it that way, so he figures staying out of her hair is the best option ( Read more... )

"Anytime," Chloe smiles and then ushers Jimmy toward the elevator and inside.

Once they're gone, Clark sighs loudly and goes back into the kitchen. It might sound like he's throwing the dishes around, but he's not. He's just close to it.

"Sorry," says Anna quietly, knowing he can hear her. "I'd honestly forgot where I'd learned it, and it is good food. Am I going to be eating all that chocolate mousse by myself?"

"Well, that explains why you killed yourself over it." Clark snorts and then does drop a plate. "Dammit."

"Oh, fuck, you--"

If it's possible for someone very suddenly not being angry anymore to make a noise, Anna makes that noise right about now.

"That was supposed to be private," she continues softly, coming into the kitchen to help Clark clean up his dropped plate.

"We all heard a noise when you were in there, I just wanted to make sure you were all right," he says shortly, carelessly picking up broken pieces of ceramic and dumping them in the garbage.

"A little over dramatic, don't you think?"

"It wasn't drama." Still with the not-being-angry, although it may be clear it takes somewhat of an effort to stay that way as she aids Clark with picking up the broken ceramic.

She cuts herself on one, of course. Accidentally. It simply isn't something she thinks to avoid.

While running her hand through cold water: "It was to help calm myself down. Worked, too. Reboots the body, flushes out all those unpleasant mood chemicals. Old contractor trick."

"How convenient for you," he says blandly, leaning against the counter. "Shame us livelings just have to muddle through with all our moods."

"Very funny," she says, giving him a look. "Fine. I also did it because I'm a fucking pain addict, are you happy now?"

hero_farmboy August 4 2007, 07:04:13 UTC

"No, I think we pretty thoroughly established earlier that I'm not happy."

downsidedarling August 4 2007, 07:05:40 UTC

"All right. Anything I can do to make it better?"

Her tone levels out and, by the end of the sentence when she shuts the water off and wraps a dish-towel around her cut hand, she's speaking amicably again. It wouldn't do to have him think that wasn't a completely sincere blanket offer, after all.

hero_farmboy August 4 2007, 07:15:43 UTC

"No." It's softer this time, as is the sigh that accompanies it.

downsidedarling August 4 2007, 07:16:41 UTC

Resolutely: "How sure are you of that?"

hero_farmboy August 4 2007, 07:22:34 UTC

He raises an eyebrow. "This instant? There's nothing I can think of that you can do that would immediately make me feel better."

downsidedarling August 4 2007, 07:23:36 UTC

"And on a wider scale?"

She really isn't giving up, this one.

hero_farmboy August 4 2007, 07:31:42 UTC

"That's something I'll have to think about."

He reaches over to take her hand and gently unwraps the towel from it. "Doesn't look too bad."

downsidedarling August 4 2007, 07:33:13 UTC

"Stopped bleeding already," she says with a shrug. "It won't inconvenience me."
