how to play.

1. Drop a comment with one or more of your muses. It can be empty if you want me to make a scenario, or you can toss one at me. If you want to just give me a prompt (a word, song, lyric, picture, phrase, anything), I can riff off that too.
2. In the subject line, you can specify any of my muses you might want to play with, or you can ask me to pick someone.
3. just rp with me. if something jives really well, maybe we can continue it in another one of these later, sort of like a super casual verse. if it doesn't, it doesn't.

He returns the hug just as tightly, letting her lean into him as she does. Even with the smile he can tell that things didn't go as she had hoped, but she's here. They can figure out the rest later.

"I take it things could have gone better?"

[easily]

"I got close to getting it. The cure. But there was only one dose."

And the odds didn't work out in her favor. They almost never do. But at least she had him to come home to -- it's something.

[alias_savant]

His face falls a bit. He knows how much she wanted the chance to be human again. "I'm sorry it didn't work out."

[easily]

"So am I." She had gotten so close in the end too, but Silas stole it away from her. There's nothing to be done about it now.

[alias_savant]

Excatly. So there's no point in dwelling on it for the evening. Now was the time figure out what to do to welcome her back home.

"I'm just happy you're home," he says with a smile, before leaning in to kiss her softly. "I missed having you here."

[easily]

She leans up to kiss him back. There is at least this, that she had this to come home, she didn't end up with nothing at all this time. She still had him.

"I've missed being here."

[alias_savant]

"So what would you like to do, now that you're back here? Dinner? Dancing?" Steal something? Not that there's much in a two mile radius he can steal, but it could be fun.

[easily]

"Something exciting." So maybe stealing. Not maybe the best of ideas, but it'd be a nice distraction.

[alias_savant]

He nods a bit at that. "I have to go meet Peter for something for a case, but why don't you meet me at that lounge you like later. We'll see where the night takes us."

Stealing something could totally still be on the table.

[easily]

She nods a little in agreement. "That sounds like a good plan."

It'll give her sometime to get ready first and then well -- whatever happens happens. If that ends up including stealing?

So be it.

[alias_savant]

He smiles as he leans in to kiss her again, trying to convey just how glad he is that she's home. As far as he's concerned, this can always be home for her, and it feels better when she's in it.

[easily]

She leans in, letting her eyes close as she kisses him back. Even just being here with him eases the pain of what she's lost, if only just a little.

This is her home now, she doesn't plan on leaving again.

[alias_savant]

He holds the kiss for as long as he can before he breaks it, pulling back to look at her with a smile. "I'll let you settle back in, and I'll call you when I'm leaving the office."

[easily]

"I'll be looking forward to it." At least it'll be a pleasant distraction, whatever trouble they end up getting themselves into.

[alias_savant]

He'll give her hand one last squeeze, before turning and heading towards the door. "I'll see you soon."

[easily]

She smiles. "I'll see you then."

[alias_savant]

And with that, he turns to head off to work.
