Library, Monday (11/15)

By some strange, twisted, and quite frankly a little bit mean coincidence, there was a book about the history of Stonehenge in the returns dropoff today, full-color panoramic photo of the standing stones in prominent display on the cover.

Gabrielle took one look at it and flinched, immediately deciding she should put it away as soon as possible . . . but she couldn't help looking at it, instead.

Half a chapter into the discussion of the possible history of the monument, she was frowning in a but that's not how it happened way, and rather than putting the book away, she'd gone to get more for cross-referencing purposes. It was sort of like picking a scab. A very perplexing one.

It did nothing for her mood, but that was something she wouldn't be taking out on anyone. And anyway, there was coffee; that might be the important thing.

Jaime nodded. "He's tapped into my nervous system, so he can hear what I hear."

"That's totally creepy, but still kind of cool. Should I apologise to him, too?"
weldedtomyspine: (more than mildly amused)

"You can if you want," Jaime smirked. "But he doesn't get offended. He's, you know, alien."
heromaniac: (big eye curious)

"Aliens can get offended! And besides, he wasn't involved and he still got yelled at. Here." She tugged at his sleeve to pull him close enough to whisper in Jaime's ear. "I'm sorry."
weldedtomyspine: (lost in thought)

Jaime actually shivered slightly at the feel of her breath against his neck, but he grinned.

"You're too sweet sometimes, you know that right?" he asked, voice soft and fond.
heromaniac: (smile innocent)

"When I'm not punching and yelling?" She let him go and reached booted up her study tutorial again. "We can study together, right?"
weldedtomyspine: (concerned)

"I'd like that," Jaime answered with a slow nod. "A lot."

They were going to be okay.

It felt like he'd let out a breath that he hadn't realized he was holding since Wednesday.
heromaniac: (yes but)

Momoko sighed, relieved. She still felt upset, but the big ball of tension was gone.

"In that case," she turned the laptop to face him. "Can you help me understand this equation?"
weldedtomyspine: (such a dork)

Jaime leaned over her shoulder to look at her screen, relaxing at the familiar feeling of casual closeness. "Sure. You just need to..."
