[Eddie's been veerrry careful around Stephanie since the failed birthday celebration. On Tuesday morning, Eddie's gone bright and early, but he's left her a green health juice in the fridge and a wildflower bouquet on the table with a note:]

Riddle me this: Should I visit Arkham to destroy my deactivated tech and check out new warden? y/n/vy?

	[Glancing over her shoulder. Affectionately.] I like it when your hair is messy, baby. [Shrugging, pulling out the perfect shake n bake chicken.] Years and years. Too long. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Hmph.] I work so hard to keep it gelled just right. [His hair springs in defiance of that. He leans on the counter, watching her be all domestic.] See? We can have it now. Sure, I might get on your nerves now that we don't have a war to focus on. But, that's what the couch is for. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Wrinkling her nose as she smiles.] I think it's sexy. [She places the pan on the stove top and tosses the oven mitt at his head.] Is that what you're looking for? Intimate time with the couch? [Dodging behind the fridge door for retaliation attacks.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He snags the mitt before it can hit his head and goes to throw it back at her, waiting for her to pop back up from behind the fridge. So seriously it's funny:] Well, no. If I spend too much time with the couch, I'm going to piss it off, too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Sllowwwlllyyy peaking over the top of the door. Like she's hiding on a mission. Shrug in her voice.] The poor couch. It'll have to suffer. Or you could switch to the server room for a while if you want. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: steph/eddie riddlethem 2014-03-27 10:58 am UTC (link)
	[He fakes a throw at her.] Hey. The server room is the only thing that doesn't get sick of me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: steph/eddie forthem 2014-03-27 11:01 am UTC (link)
	[Dodging back under before peaking up again. This time, she's holding out the ketchup bottle like a weapon.] The server room has been lying to you, war hero. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: steph/eddie riddlethem 2014-03-27 11:02 am UTC (link)
	How dare you. [He throws the mitt and misses wildly.] Well, I guess I should be thankful I have enough places to rotate through. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: steph/eddie forthem 2014-03-27 11:04 am UTC (link)
	[She shoots in a panic, landing somewhere on the wall near him.] Oops. [Smirk, standing up. Pulling out the salad, closing the door with her hip.] I'm gonna start locking rooms on you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: steph/eddie riddlethem 2014-03-27 11:07 am UTC (link)
	[Eddie dodges out of the way, laughing. He leans on the nearby wall, crossing his arms.] Lock me in or lock me out? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: steph/eddie forthem 2014-03-27 11:09 am UTC (link)
	[Loftily.] Whatever is most effective that day, I guess. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Defeated.] Welp, I better invest in some silent treatment classes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: steph/eddie forthem 2014-03-27 11:16 am UTC (link)
	[Walking past him with the salad, she bumps her hip into his side before going to the table and placing it next to the vase of flowers he got her.] I think I'd rather you just try to charm your way out of it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: steph/eddie riddlethem 2014-03-27 11:17 am UTC (link)
	[He throws his hands up in the air with a shrug.] We don't always get what we want, Stephanie Brown. [He follows after her and takes a seat.] Besides, if you haven't noticed, the charm only gets me so far. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[She rounds around the table to pour some iced tea for him from the pitcher on the table, then a glass of her own. Before going back to get the chicken, she leans forward and presses a kiss to the side of his temple, then goes to move the chicken on a serving plate.] Maybe you've gotta brainstorm some better methods. Silent treatment clearly doesn't work for you either.

	[Pleased noise when she kisses his temple and then he takes a sip of ice tea.] Arts and crafts? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: steph/eddie forthem 2014-03-27 11:25 am UTC (link)
	[A laugh from the kitchen.] Like you're gonna make me macaroni art or something? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: steph/eddie riddlethem 2014-03-27 11:27 am UTC (link)
	[Leaning back with a smirk.] Well, so much for that macaroni necklace I was working on. Damn it all! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Striding back in with the serving plate full of deliciiious crispy shake n bake chicken.] If it's purple or green, I'll still take it, I guess. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Going for the chicken, but it's too hot. Cue ow ow ow blowing on it and then still trying to eat it. Eventually, after getting a little bite.] This is amazing and I love you. I'll reward you in bling later. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[She tries to jerk it out of his reach, but she's too weak for him. She just giggles when he grabs a piece, places the rest down, and stands behind him to wrap her arms around his neck. Kisses up his neck all the way to his ear as she squeezes him tight. Resting her cheek against his and closing her eyes for a second.] A good enough last supper before we die of salmonella poisoning, I hope.

[It's like he warms to her touch, leaning his head back to rest against hers when she wraps her arms around him. Soft murmurs of love yous with each kiss. His hand reaches to touch one of her arms and he nods. Saying something he had a hundred times before on the battlefield, though it sounds goofy here:] I'd rather die with you at my side than alone. [Leaning his head back to smile up at her.] Do your worst, salmonella.
