Status: Closed; Ongoing

Alex Vause found herself in something of a funk. She'd been happy to help teach Mere Delany onboard Serenity, but more and more lately it felt like she was training a replacement rather than a co-worker. Mere cracked her up and was great company, but Alex had been thinking that maybe it was time to move on; much like Chase had before her. The trouble was... what did she move toward?

Not to mention the fact that while things with her girlfriend Gwen had been going well, she felt stagnant in their relationship. What did she do with these feelings? She did what any responsible adult would do. She found a bar and decided to drink until she didn't feel feelings anymore. Right at the moment, she was in the middle of a boilermaker. She dropped a shot of whiskey into a pint of beer, then guzzled as much as she could until she needed to take a breath. "That's the shit, right there."

	"I'd say 'whatever you're having', but..." She smirked at the drink set in front of Alex and winked. "Just a beer, I think." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Where's your sense of adventure?" Alex asked with a husky laugh. Still, she flagged the bartender down again and motioned to the younger woman. "Give her what she wants." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You have no idea the sense of adventure I have." Haruka replied with another slow, lazy grin. She technically meant that in a few different ways... but right now she was focused on the more naughty connotations. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well then let your hair down." Alex ran the tip of her index finger along one side of her glass and sucked it into her mouth briefly before sipping her drink. "We'll party. Forget about our worries for a while." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Mm. I'm a little worried that someone of your age might not be able to keep up with me..." She teased, giving a salacious wink. "Not much of a drinker, but I'm sure there's still a good time to be had." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Jesus. How old do you think I am?" Alex asked, laughing. 40 was looking closer than 30 these days, but she still felt young at heart. As for drinking? Alex wasn't going to push. She wasn't necessarily going to slow down herself, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I was only joking, dear..." She laughed, before leaning in to whisper in Alex's ear. "It hardly matters... clearly you're aging better than a fine wine. And I'd imagine you taste just as exquisite." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh you have no idea," Alex lilted in reply. She was pleasantly surprised, though, since she didn't think that Haruka had it in her to be so forward. She rested her elbow on the table and her chin on her open palm as she gazed at her. "You're fun," she decided. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh, you have no idea." Haruka teased, repeating Alex's words back to her in reply. "I'm sure there are.... more interesting places we could be right now than in this bar..." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Alex moved her hand to the back of her head, still resting her elbow on the bar as she nibbled on her bottom lip. This conversation was veering in a direction that she wasn't prepared for. Still, it was nice to feel like herself again. "You know, I'm sure there are." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Haruka was never this.... bold. This seductive. Oh, she loved to flirt... even while with Michiru, she loved flirting, especially with Usagi and the other girls. But that was playful. Teasing. This was a girl who's heart was shattered, throwing herself out there, to see if she still "had it". To see if it was HER fault that Michiru moved on.

Add the fact that she was JUST tipsy enough to kick her inhibitions to the curb, and Haruka leaned in then, and pressed her lips to Alex's, curious as to the reaction it would get.

Alex had her own worries to deal with. Ever since the night of the failed hook up with Bea, her heart hadn't been in much of anything since. She knew that she loved Gwen and likely wouldn't let what was happening right now progress much further, but she felt so far apart from who she was, or at least who she'd once been, that this felt like a brief glimpse of what she'd been missing. It almost broke her. When did things become so serious? She placed a palm to Haruka's cheek, kissing her back slowly. It felt as if she was trying to get back that missing part of herself that she'd lost along the way. "You'll be okay," she murmured against her lips.

	"...come home with me." Haruka murmured, all pretense of teasing or being slightly coy out the window. "Let's give each other comfort... I guarantee you'll enjoy it." (Reply to this) (Parent)
