"What? do you feel the need to nurture something?" he lets out a soft laugh as Kafka laid in bed with Sesame, the pastry cat thing that looked exactly like him,
"Hmm, what do you mean Bladie" she smiles up at him, truth be told, she's been pampering this cat A LOT lately, more than Blade even.
"..." He sits down besides her, the cat suddenly hurries towards him, he doesn't really know what he means himself, it just came out like that, probably a part of him still yearning the need of someone of his own, a family. Just about human nature maybe.
"Are you jealous of Sesame, by chance?" she lays down on her back, the cat hurrying to sit on top of her, curling itself up on her stomach, "Look dear Sesame, you're making Bladie jealous"
She laughs
He loves that sound, and the few times they get to relax, together /with this cat /, it's truly a precious moment.
Sure perhaps he's not meant for this. He is a weapon, here to protect her.. this.. reckless woman who is currently just laying in undergarments in her bed. With this cat. And this bigger cat, or sword, whatever works.
"Elio needs us tomorrow" she says, closing her eyes, "Truly a shame we get barely one night"
"What does he need?" he asks, checking out his bandaged hand, which was freshly bandaged by her just a few hours ago, a mark of her lipstick was left on his palm, the colour was now fading.
"Hmm, i heard it's about a party" she says tracing her fingers over the pastry shell of the cat.
"Don't know much more tho, sorry darling"
"...Kafka, when all of this is over, what will you do?" a weird question, but straight from his heart, he feels like this is an endless cycle, which, in his case.. truly is. Life and death, when will it stop? Will it ever?
He turns to look at her, her facial expression seems relaxed, the cat is purring happily.
"I've never thought that far. I believe it will never be over" she says with a monotone voice, she is destiny's slave, she will follow it until the end, supposedly, and he will follow.
His head feels dizzy, it was weird, many thoughts coming in and leaving as soon as they arrive, it's as if it's not even him thinking anymore, rather somebody else.
"Why do you ask, i thought you would already know my answer..." she says, meeting his gaze, he seems dazed. Yeah he knows the answer, he just wishes it would change, she's living far too risky for her own good, it makes him sad, does he feel sadness?..
He does not speak back, she does not force it, he's usually shut within himself. nothing new. if she really wanted to know she would do everything in her force, this time it was rather a question to figure out some truth, what goes in his mind besides the fact that he's a weapon meant to protect her, that destiny tied them together. That they are basically everything they would ever need.
She knows.. she just doesn't know how to feel about it, this world is dangerous, and their lifestyles do not help in any way. Sure, it's something maybe everyone thinks about, a family? That's great.. something to look forward to rather than death, weapons and alcohol. Not that it's everything they have going on, of course not, they share many intimate moments, moments only they will share.
*A little you and me, how would they look, would they have your beautiful eyes.. or your beautiful hair, or a bit of everything from both of us.* she thinks
"Actually well, maybe it will be over soon, I'm not sure." she laughs, he raises an eyebrow, over soon?
"I guess it depends on us" she smirks playfully.
He blushes
Right, on us or on Elio? Who will be helping him after if not the greatest of these two. This woman does amazing work, absolutely no way he'll ever find anyone like her. And neither will Blade. There is no one better for him...
He leans in to kiss her.
A moment of tenderness, she pulls him in closer - the cat getting off off her chest as he slowly comes to hover over her.
"Was that a joke" he breaks the kiss, staring at her face and lips, she had no make-up on,rarely did that happen, as they were always on the go..
She shrugs and laughs it off, this woman. This woman is messing with his head, even without her spirit whisperer.
He remains hovered over her body, grabbing her arms - pulling them up above her head and pinning them - "now i demand an answer, will you tell me?" he asks in a lower tone, supposedly that excited him, him or something within him, he couldn't tell.
"Yes Bladie"
His heartbeat sped up a little, this wasn't a lie, right, he hopes, he really does.
"When do you wish to try it hmm ~"
A tease, a true tease she was, leaving him flushed yet again, she really knows how to get her way, altho he was unable to tell if it was mocking or not, how do you go from /following destiny's path/ to /whenever you wish/
He breathes out and stares at her intensely, she squirms under him, with her hands still pinned up, he was not letting go. oh.
"Are you in a rush" she asks, with an obvious joking tone, well not exactly. He's got all the time in the world... but she doesn't.
"No" he murmurs, definitely.. definitely not, he wants to say, but truly he wishes for it to be as soon as possible - wants to make her his - as soon as possible, to experience what he has not in all of these years.
"Please let go now" she whines, he does as told - falling over next to her - she suddenly gets up, to her feet, she stands next to the bed, with her side profile visible
"You know I have never been one for gaining weight" she says, motioning as if she had a belly, imitating what it would be like with her hand - and then grabs on her bra "and as far as I'm aware these get bigger" she adds, pushing them up "which means I will need some new things.."
Alright, that was the end for him, he's lost his mind, it's unbelievable. He's just fully red at this point, red like some parts of his hair, sometimes he can't believe this woman. Of course she was thinking about shopping, too, he covers his face with his hand.
"Oh and what would Wolfie think" she speaks out with a curious voice, almost ecstatic.
He really can't help but smile.
"I'm sure she will be glad to have somebody to play with" he nods, holding his hand out for her to get back in bed.
Sesame is suddenly back in bed, along with the /Kafka cat/, Shader. "Seems the whole 'family' is ready to sleep" she says laughing - a loud noise coming from the youngers Stellaron Hunter room - "almost everybody.." he continues with a hum, pulling Kafka close to his chest.
Goodnight, dear family
