OPEN THANKSGIVING THREAD
WHO: OPEN TO ALL
WHAT: Thanksgiving, 2018
WHERE: Everywhere.
WHEN: Thanksgiving, 2018! ;)
RATING: TBA
STATUS: Open to all!

HOW THIS WORKS: This post is completely open. Do you want your character to celebrate Thanksgiving; or did you maybe want them to organize a small Thanksgiving celebration at their current safehouse? Did you just want them to reminisce about Thanksgivings past with a family member or friend? That's what this post is for!

If your post is for specific characters only, mark it in the subject. For example, if Lucy and I were to post with Allie and Ollie, we would put Allie and Ollie in the subject. But if we wanted to leave it open for others? We would say Allie, Ollie and OPEN.

Go crazy! And Happy Thanksgiving, folks! ♥

Giving a dramatic little sigh and shook her head in amusement. "I know, I know. I'd be in very big trouble. Then you would have had to spank me." Not that she wouldn't have enjoyed that. Clearly. "But I do have my coat on so you have to ask before you spank me if you want to." Then she smirked at him.

Maybe this wasn't the best thing to be thinking about when they were trying to be nice and cute up here on the roof. "I suppose so. I mean I guess it's just like if the cold froze the infection, or just the body parts." She shrugged some. Then again, she wasn't a doctor.

Though she noticed that he was looking at her, she tried not to blush and kept looking out at the city instead.

When Bennett brought up a serious subject, she finally turned to him, eyebrows raised and waited for him to finish. There wouldn't be any interruptions until he was done. He loved her. He actually loved her. Not that she really doubted it before exactly. It was just really the first time that he had said it.

Lucretia smiled at him brightly and then moved quite a bit closer to him. "Oh Bennett.." she leaned in and pressed her lips against the corner of his mouth, near his cheek. She kissed him there and let her lips linger for quite a while. "I love you too. I really do. You're my family now. You are my family and even if we weren't going through all of this bad stuff, you would still be my family. I don't ever want to lose you." It would kill her.

Though she wasn't quite sure if he was saying he was in love with her, she knew that in a way it didn't quite matter. They loved each other and that was that. She wasn't interested in anyone else either. It was just the two of them as far as she was concerned.

Bennett smirked and shook his head, "Lucretia, no," he began rather matter-of-factly, turning to give her a look as he reached up to adjust his glasses, "because you'd enjoy it more that way," he teased, his smile softened as he studied her.

Maybe not the best thing, but it was part of every day life now. It belonged in the conversation as much as anything else did, right? These days, anyhow. Bennett nodded, "so why haven't they froze? Especially the floaters in the water? The ones that bloke keeps briefing us on, over near Liberty Island. They're dead. And I understand that temperature isn't necessarily going to affect them, but physically, there comes a point when something is frozen, end of story. I can't really understand it."

And of course he loved her. Did she ever have any doubts? But yes, it was the first time that he'd said it, because he wasn't sure she'd understand. He still wasn't entirely certain she'd take it very well, but it seemed to be so far so good.

He let his eyes fall shut, when Lucretia leaned in to press that gentle kiss against the corner of his mouth. It made his heart flutter in his chest, and he opened his eyes back to her once she pulled back again to tell him that she loved him too.

He smiled softly, moving to bring his hand up to lightly set against her cheek, his thumb petting over her warm cheek, "You're not going to lose me. No matter how hard you could possibly try," he grinned, "you're stuck with me. There's no getting rid of me at this point."

In return, she batted her eyes at him and gave him the most innocent look that she could possibly muster. "Enjoy it more? What ever could you be talking about? I wouldn't enjoy spanking. That's a bad bad thing. I couldn't possible," she said dramatically, and tried really hard not to laugh.

Perhaps that was just their relationship. They could have this odd thing where they talked about zombies one minute, and love the next minute. It was fine with her. "Hmm. Well I guess that's the wrench in my theory, isn't it? I mean besides that the water in the ocean doesn't actually freeze except once in a great while on top. Salt water's really hard to freeze. But maybe they don't. Maybe the virus prevents it." Or whatever it was.

No, Lucretia never had any doubts about him loving her. It was just a little odd to hear him say it. Really nice, but odd. How could she not take it well? She'd have to be heartless to be angry at him saying that. And she didn't think she was all that heartless.

Eventually she had to move back, for fear of moving her lips any closer to his. Her cheek nuzzled into his hand and she sighed. "That's good to know, because you're never getting rid of me either. We're stuck to each other. Like glue." Slowly she slid her arms around his waist and hugged him as tightly as she could possibly manage. Her head rested against his chest, and Lucy sighed again.

Bennett eyed his partner, "You're an awful liar, you know that, don't you? Thank God you were never taken hostage or prisoner and interrogated and tortured. You wouldn't make it," he teased, of course. But really. Silly Lucretia.

Well, that was life, these days, wasn't it? Talking about zombies one minute, and something else the next. It was part of every day conversation, now. Nothing new. Bennett listened carefully to what Lucretia was saying, and shrugged, "no earthly idea. Whatever the reason for them not dying off is getting on my last nerve."

And no, Lucretia was not heartless at all. Bennett knew better. He'd seen her little moments of kindness and care. She couldn't hide those from him.

When her arms went around him, Bennett brought his own around her to return the warm hug, holding her close. The warmth was a nice contrast with the cold night air. "Like glue," he repeated in agreement, moving to lean down and brush a kiss against her brow.

Though for a moment longer, Lucretia tried to look as innocent as possible, finally she gave up and started to laugh. "Oh can you imagine? I'd be laughing the whole time and then they'd have the secrets out of me in no time." She grinned a bit. Oh she liked it when he teased her like that.

Very true. If this conversation had taken place before everything, well then someone would think they were crazy. Now it was just conversation. "Me too," she agreed with a nod.

Really she didn't want to hide those things from him. Not at all.

Hugging was nice. She didn't do nearly enough of it anymore, especially with him. Perhaps that would be her New Years resolution, if she had one. To hug him more. Giving him another tight squeeze, she didn't seem intent on letting go any time soon. She just smiled up at him. "Merry Christmas. Too bad there's no mistletoe, or I'd kiss you properly."
