[ dinner mingle! ]
[After a hard day's work, it's time for dinner. And there's food a cookin' in the shared kitchens of Squall Asylum. It might even smell better than you'd expect, because a bunch of rations put together makes a little more than a few cold potatoes alone. And face it, with Lacus around making wine out of water (or as close to it as possible, judging by the "feast") it's bound to be a good time.

So take forth your delicious food and eat as a group. After all, social interaction's awesome. We may not have beaches to luau on but the same people are hanging out and ought to stay closely knit despite the circumstances. Be a recluse if you want to, but you won't get far eating plain rice alone. Join in!

Dinner consists of an assortment of simple dishes prepared by Lacus creatively despite ration restrictions. Some of the dishes offered include a rice and beans dish, cabbage stew, fried rice with the veggies, and a very simple carrot bread.

And for you folks who go to the dark side, there will be a chicken dish as well though Rebecca will be giving it and partakers of it slightly irritated side glances for a multitude of reasons.]

(OOC: So if you didn't hear on day 221 ('yesterday'), Rebecca had been cheerfully suggesting a ration-share program to make a lot of something out of a little nothing. Whether you responded or not, feel free to hand wave if your character joined in by donating some of their rations to be made into meals likely at the hands of talented chef Lacus.

This mingle is solely about day 222 dinner, but also feel free to hand wave that breakfast and lunch were similarly made for those who participated. And if you didn't participate? Well, feel free to crash & eat your own food with the group or sneak a few bites. There might not be tons to go around, but it's doubtful anyone will turn you down.

Notifs are off but I'll be surfing the post & Becks'll have her own post down below.)

	[She holds him more securely. She was ready to sway at least, but right now just holding him feels so much more important.] It's not too soon for another I love you, is it? Because I love you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Never too soon. [ He could use more of that, actually. ] I love you too. So much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She feels it a lot more than she says it. She smiles against him.] I'm happy. [Such a small phrase, but it means a lot to her. Maybe even more than she realizes.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ From her shoulder and up into her hair. Hair that, due to dust and sweat and cheap soap feels less soft than he's used to, but also more real somehow. Better memorize this. ] Even here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-06-14 03:20 pm UTC (link)
	[Her eyes close, just liking the way his hand is roaming over her. One of hers slides down his back.] Even here. I mean, don't get me wrong, I like Marina better, but I've lived in worse than this. It's not the places that make me happy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ He makes another light noise, soft and amused. ] I really don't know what I'd do without you. [ So if you think this is bad... ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't want you to find out. [Her fingers tighten on the loose material of his gray scrubs.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-06-14 04:28 pm UTC (link)
	Me neither. [ Grip tightening. ] We'll be okay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-06-14 04:30 pm UTC (link)
	You know, it's really good to hear you say that. [She'd tighten hers but they are about as tight as they can get without doing each other injury.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Bruised ribs are so worth it, let's be real here. ] I'm sorry if it seemed like I didn't believe it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-06-14 05:14 pm UTC (link)
	Well, I'm sorry if I overreacted. I get worried about you...us sometimes. [She's a lot of things—former wife, assassin, currently restricted mutant—but the one she sometimes forgets is still in there is the 19-year-old girl who doesn't want to lose everyone again.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-06-14 05:16 pm UTC (link)
	[ He nods, for once choosing not to argue who has the most right to be worried here. ] It's hard... not worrying. We have a lot to lose. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[She doesn't want to argue that either. As far as she can see they both have a lot of right. They're together. They should worry about each other and their relationship. It just shouldn't be the only thing they do for it.] We do. That's a good thing. [She unclenches her hand from his shirt and instead lets it slip beneath the fabric to touch his back. She's not trying to start something really. She just wants to feel him.]

	[ This is why it's so good that she's half of this relationship. Someone needs to keep his head on straight. ] ...You're right. You're absolutely right. [ And with a soft sigh he lets go of everything but what's happening right now, at least for the moment. Her wandering hand is rewarded with a hum. It's good to feel her feel him. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-06-14 10:47 pm UTC (link)
	[She nuzzles in against his neck, kissing it softly as long as she's there.] I love you. [Never too soon, right?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-06-14 11:09 pm UTC (link)
	I love you too. [ Never. And since she's so close he'll turn his head, angling for a kiss. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-06-14 11:14 pm UTC (link)
	[The kiss feels so right and natural it's like that's what she was aiming for the whole time. She knows things aren't over with the worrying, but right now this feels just perfect.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-06-15 08:35 am UTC (link)
	[ Far from over. This is just the beginning and perhaps that's why he pushes into the kiss after a beat,, urgency growing. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-06-15 02:18 pm UTC (link)
	[There is a glimmer of a surprise when he pushes in, but it's met by her own enthusiasm. She presses closer, deepening the kiss. Do you know how much she's missed having alone time with him? More than cigarettes.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-06-15 07:22 pm UTC (link)
	[ That is just about the best compliment a man could ever hope for. He matches her eagerness with his own, one hand combing through her hair while the other slides down her back to slip in under her scrubs. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Look who just happens to have a good icon for this!

[Such good, smart hands. She should probably start thinking about how even though most people aren't out, they aren't exactly in private either and for all they know a crowd could be gathering around them this very minute!

She probably should think that, but she isn't and truth be told, she probably wouldn't care much if that did happen. Kissing is definitely the priority right now.]

	Such a coincidence! thisiscalm 2013-06-15 07:49 pm UTC (link)
	[ The lack of privacy is actually very much on his mind, even if it's not as pressing as it could be. Before yesterday morning, they hadn't kissed. Barely touched, if he's right and if that's true then it means they haven't... They haven't. He hasn't. ] We shouldn't... [ Could be more convincing. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-06-15 08:15 pm UTC (link)
	[When they break for silly things like breathing and speaking she stays close, letting her lips drag lightly over his jaw, breath fanning out across his skin.] Probably not. ...But we don't always do what we should. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-06-15 08:20 pm UTC (link)
	[ God, she is very good at making it harder on him to resist. He releases a shuddering breath at her wandering lips, fingers moving idly over her lower back. ] No... no, we don't. [ Even less so after she came into the picture and that's why it's so easy to reconnect the kiss. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She kisses back until her lungs are sad, pained creatures.] There is the farm... [Ever do it against a chicken coop?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
