	[He sort of figured but, as a person who occasionally misses the obvious and misreads situations, the clarification is appreciated.] I hoped. It would be strange of you to want to spend time with someone else when you're here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm not ready to leave yet though. We have so much more dancing to do before that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We can dance until your patience with me runs out. [Kitty might be leading, but guess what? Surprise dip!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Such an aggressive dance partner! She laughs and leans back in his arms.] You'll have to do better than that to get rid of me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He rights her but keeps her a little closer than is conducive to dancing.] That was the worst that I have. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-11-17 11:17 pm UTC (link)
	I guess you're stuck with me then. [And maybe because they are this close she leans in to kiss him—lips and all! No fake out to the cheek.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-11-17 11:36 pm UTC (link)
	[Oh no and now they're kissing and nothing about that is bad. Chekov brings a hand to Kitty's cheek and drops all pretense at dancing.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She doesn't go too far, too deep, but it also isn't a timid, quick thing. She pulls back smiling as she looks at him.] I think we're forgetting something. [The dance.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-11-18 09:23 pm UTC (link)
	[Sticking their tongues down each other's throats would be inappropriate, so that's more than acceptable!] Ah, yes. You distracted me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-11-18 09:45 pm UTC (link)
	[Definitely not what everyone else signed up to see. Unless they are doing odd things while unattended.] Me? You're the one stealing the lead. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-11-18 10:19 pm UTC (link)
	True, but you were the one instigating the kissing. [Just a fact, not a complaint.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-11-18 10:37 pm UTC (link)
	Are you sure? I think you were instigating it by being too cute not to kiss. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-11-18 11:01 pm UTC (link)
	I blame it on the glasses. I was told that I would be irresistible in them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-11-18 11:07 pm UTC (link)
	[She leans in to kiss him again. This time just a happy peck on the lips.] Take me for another spin, your mathship. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-11-18 11:36 pm UTC (link)
	[This is the best dance ever and he's so pleased with life.] I would be happy to. [Of course there's a literal spin. Surely that comes as no surprise.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-11-18 11:41 pm UTC (link)
	[None at all, but that doesn't make it any less enjoyable. She sinks in against him happily. Her wings flutter.] I'm happy too. [Not exactly what he said, but it still needed to be told.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[His heart flutters (in a good way, not in a medically alarming way). It's good to hear. Kitty being happy is extremely important to him.]

So am I. [Not that he's a habitually unhappy person, but this is different. This is the kind of happiness that comes from a sense of belonging in a place that none of them really belong in. In being wanted as a person, not as a navigator or a genius or a familiar face.]

	[This would be such an awkward time for a medical emergency.] Yeah? Then I guess we're in a pretty good place. [Well, she does like his face and his mind. She doesn't have a huge need for navigation skills in a tiny dome.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-11-19 03:42 pm UTC (link)
	That is the first time that I have heard that said in MarinaNova. [Not that she's talking about their location, but she kind of is. Some things can only happen in a jamjar.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-11-19 05:12 pm UTC (link)
	It does feel a little like a bad joke, but I'm pretty sure I meant it. [99.8%] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-11-20 12:49 am UTC (link)
	There is nowhere I'd rather be. [100% and he doesn't know if he's talking about where he is with Kitty specifically in a non-spatial sense or about the prison or what, but he definitely means it.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-11-29 01:23 am UTC (link)
	[It earns a soft blush as if it is about her!] Big statement. [She looks into his eyes, not sure if she fully believes it and yet she can't imagine him lying to her.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-11-29 03:51 pm UTC (link)
	But a true statement. [He's being entirely, painfully, characteristically honest even if the specifics of what he's being honest about aren't entirely clear to him.] Being trapped here is a fair price to pay for the opportunity to meet you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[She doesn't know what to say to that because there's too much and none of it will come out right with the way it makes her throat feel tight and her eyes sting. No, words won't work here at all, so she leans in to kiss him again instead. She tries to kiss the words into his mouth somehow. Communicate how much that means to her. How much it scares her to be wanted like that because she likes it and she isn't going to want to lose it and life is all about losing—battles, wars, relationships, friends, loved ones. It's the one lesson life has been very clear about teaching her. But there is one other lesson in there. That you never have to stop finding new things to fight for and new people to love. Hope is yours to hold onto for as long as you can handle the pain that might follow.]

[Even though Chekov isn't a skilled kiss-reader, he can tell that those words affected her--in a good way, obviously, since there is kissing. Maybe she doesn't feel exactly the same way. Maybe he's setting himself up for a repeat of what happened with Lucy. Maybe someday he'll be smarter about loving people, but that day is not today and he wouldn't trade right now for anything.]
